Lara Beach is Antalya’s glitziest stretch of coast, lined with big-name resorts, long sandy beaches and family-friendly attractions. Ramada Resort Lara sits in the resort centre, so you’ve got shops, bars and local restaurants on your doorstep, plus an easy bus ride into Antalya’s old town for bazaars, Roman walls and harbour views.

The hotel’s private beach club is around 600m away, reached by a quick, complimentary shuttle that runs regularly throughout the day. Out at the beach you’ll find sunbeds, parasols, a pier, beach bars and a children’s splash area, so it’s worth splitting your time between pool and sea.
