Golf holidays to Belek, Turkey: Your next favourite destination

You might be surprised at us offering packages to Belek in Turkey for golf. Not that well known in this part of the world, but having visited and played there twice over the past few years, if you want a first-class golf experience on excellent golf courses- I can recommend Belek.

Depending on which golf resort you choose, the transfer to Belek is about 25 to 35 minutes from Antalya airport. Sun Express fly from Dublin direct to Antalya, with a special rate for golf bags. Flights from Cork or Shannon involve a change of flights, but may offer a more convenient departure point. Our travel experts can help you plan the best route for your needs.

So, what does Belek have to offer the golfer?

There are 16 good courses all within easy reach of eachother. They've been designed by top names, including Nick Faldo, Colin Montgomerie, Pete Dye, Peter Thompson, Feherty & Jones and many more respected designers. McIlroy, Woods, Justin Rose, and a host of other premier golfers have played the courses there.

The golf courses are mostly part of 5-star all-inclusive resorts. If you want to dine out or take a break from the hotels, there are lots of options. Belak has developed substantially over the years since my first visit, and has ample selection of restaurants, bars, nightlife and entertainment for families.

Our itineraries can be fully customised to suit your ideal holiday duration and the number of rounds of golf you'd like to play. We include a meet and greet service at Antalya airport, transfers to your hotel and transfers to the golf courses. Wel also include accommodation at a selection of the best all-inclusive golf resorts, and local representation to help make sure your golfing holiday is hassle-free.

I stayed in the Sueno golf resort and played the Dunes and Pines Golf Courses. I also played the Carya Golf Club, which is a fully lighted course- great for playing into the evening.
