Last Updated: July 4, 2026 · Exchange rate used: €1 ≈ ₺53.6.
Belek is Turkey's premier golf and luxury-resort destination, and it's conveniently close to Antalya Airport (AYT) — about 35 km, a 35–45 minute drive. The catch most visitors don't expect: there's no public bus to Belek's hotel zone. Here's how to reach your resort in 2026.
Heading to Belek? Check a fixed door-to-door transfer price — a driver waiting at arrivals, straight to your resort.
💡 Key Takeaways
- Distance: ~35 km · Drive time: ~35–45 minutes.
- No direct public bus serves Belek's hotels — your realistic options are taxi or private transfer.
- Taxi runs roughly €35–€45 on the meter, cash in Turkish Lira.
- Private transfer is the easy choice for a resort holiday: fixed price, meet & greet, and door-to-door with luggage.
The ways to get from Antalya Airport to Belek
| Option | Time | Cost | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|
| 🚌 Public bus | Not practical | — | No direct service to Belek hotels |
| 🚕 Airport taxi | ~35–45 min | ~€35–€45 on the meter | Last-minute arrivals |

1. Public transport — not a real option for Belek
Unlike Antalya city, Belek's hotel area is not served by a direct public bus. You would have to take Bus 600 to Antalya's Otogar, change to a Manavgat/Serik-bound coach, get off near the highway, and then find a local taxi to your hotel — impractical with luggage. For Belek specifically, skip the bus.
2. Airport taxi — quick but metered
Yellow taxis wait at arrivals and reach Belek in about 40 minutes. Expect roughly €35–€45 on the meter, more in traffic, and bring Turkish Lira. Insist on the meter (“taksimetre”) and don't accept a random flat price.
3. Private transfer — the resort-holiday standard
For a golf or all-inclusive break, a pre-booked private Antalya to Belek transfer is the natural fit:
- Fixed price agreed before you fly — no meter surprises.
- Meet & greet at arrivals with your name sign.
- Door-to-door to your Belek or Kadriye resort, with room for golf bags and luggage.
- Flight tracked, so a delay doesn't cost you your ride.
