Resort Overview
The five-star Regnum Carya, located approximately 30 minutes from Turkey’s Antalya International Airport, boasts an array of amenities and activities so overwhelming it’s almost hard to believe it’s an all-inclusive. The resort achieves the rare feat of managing to be everything for every visitor. On a couples’ trip? Enjoy white-sand beaches, intimate dining, adults-only pools, a luxurious spa and nightclub. Traveling with the family? There are kids’ options galore, including kid-specific dining; a game center highlighted by bowling, billiards, table football and pinball; and even gratis admission and transportation to the nearby Land of Legends theme park. Want to play golf from sun-up to sundown? There are two courses to choose from, the on-site Carya Golf Club and the nearby 27-hole National Golf Club. And you don’t even have to stop when it gets dark, thanks to Carya Golf Club’s flood-lit course the first in all of Europe’s. And let’s not forget the premium accommodation, which ranges from standard rooms and suites to six-bedroom villas with private pools.
