Behind the Lara beach strip there is a green zone - Lara Kent Park. There are not very many trees there, but you can hide from the heat. The restaurant on Tünektepe Hill is simply a gourmet pleasure to dine on a revolving platform 800 meters high. Since the restaurant is in constant motion, it is possible to alternately admire the sea and the mountains. The menu offers mainly fish dishes. However, travelers can admire the city if they just go up to the tourist center.

Lara is a beautiful place. Especially famous for the magnificent Karaalioglu Natural Park. During the day, you can relax here among the orange trees and palms, and in the evening admire the bay in the rays of the setting sun. This place is just a godsend for romantics.

Lara beach

Holidays for every taste and wallet

The hotels in the resort are usually expensive with high quality service. But if you wish, you will always pick up a budget option because the hotels in Lara are located on three lines from the sea. World-class hotels offer exquisite luxury, attentive, discreet service, excellent cuisine and many leisure options.

It is worth noting that in some areas of Lara there is no beach, but only cliffs, rocks and a wonderful view of the sea. It takes about ten minutes to get to the beach from such areas by bus. Such places offer hotels of lesser stars and at affordable prices. Many hotels provide tourists with a free shuttle to the sea.

The hotel is located in the Lara district, 25 km from the center of Antalya. Antalya Airport is 15 km from the hotel. Nearby hotels: Titanic Mardan Palace.
