Looking for all-inclusive holidays to Turkey in 2026? Here's the short version: prices start from around £279pp. The right region depends entirely on who's travelling. This guide breaks Turkey down region by region, with real prices and honest "who it's for" advice. That way, you can pick the right spot, not just the cheapest headline.
- Typical price range: £279–£1,600+pp for 7 nights all-inclusive, depending on hotel rating and season.
- Best for families: Antalya, Lara Beach and Side. Best for couples: Bodrum. Best for golf and luxury: Belek.
- Best time to book: 4–6 months ahead for summer, or travel in May, June or September for lower prices.
- UK citizens don't need a visa for stays up to 90 days just a passport valid for at least 150 days after arrival.
Turkey combines reliably hot, dry summers with some of Europe's best-value five-star resorts. Flight times from the UK are short, usually around four to four-and-a-half hours. Most major resorts sit within 20 to 90 minutes of the airport. You also get more resort for your money. A five-star, all-inclusive Turkish hotel often costs less than an equivalent three or four-star option in Spain or Greece.
British passport holders don't need a visa for holidays of up to 90 days, which keeps the planning simple. Add genuinely varied regions, from Belek's golf courses to Bodrum's boutique coves. It's easy to see why Turkey is one of the UK's most booked all-inclusive destinations.
- Budget hotels start from around £279–£450pp. Mid-range five-star runs £450–£700pp. Luxury and ultra all-inclusive starts around £700pp and can reach £1,600+pp in peak season.
| Budget tier | Price from (pp, 7 nights) | What you typically get |
| Budget | £279–£450 | 3–4 star, standard all-inclusive: buffet meals, local drinks during set hours |
| Mid-range | £450–£700 | 4–5 star, wider drinks list, at least one à la carte restaurant |
| Luxury / Ultra | £700–£1,600+ | 5 star, premium and imported drinks, multiple à la carte restaurants, extra perks |
These are “from” prices for a 7-night, per-person, all-inclusive stay, based on current listings from UK comparison sites (see Sources). They move constantly with season, hotel availability and demand, so always check live pricing before booking.
Peak summer (July and August) is the most expensive time to travel. Prices drop noticeably in May, June and September, when the weather is still reliably warm.
Turkey's all-inclusive scene isn't one destination, it's seven distinct ones, each with a different character and price point. Here's how they compare, followed by an honest breakdown of each.
| Region | Best for | Price from (pp, 7 nights) |
| Belek | Luxury golf resorts, the biggest choice of 5-star hotels | £539+ |
| Antalya / Lara Beach | Airport-adjacent convenience (15–20 min transfer), wide budget range | £379+ |
| Bodrum | Couples and boutique properties; Turkey's main adults-only hub | £454+ |
| Side | Families and value-conscious travellers; quieter, with an old town | £346+ |
| Marmaris | Nightlife and entertainment; some of the most affordable deals | £355+ |
| Kemer | Mountain-backed bays; a mix of budget resorts and top-end luxury | £350–£900+ |
| Alanya | Emerging resorts and value, but a longer airport transfer | £339+ |
Belek is Turkey's all-inclusive capital: the largest concentration of 5-star resorts, championship golf courses, and mega all-inclusive extras like waterparks and multiple à la carte restaurants. It's ideal for golfers, luxury travellers and families who want everything on-site. It's also the priciest region on this list, and one of the busiest in peak season.
Lara Beach sits just 15 to 20 minutes from Antalya Airport, making it the easiest region to reach. It covers a wide budget range, from solid 3-star hotels to high-end 5-star resorts. Expect long sandy beaches and a good mix of family and couples' hotels. If you want minimal transfer time, start here.
Bodrum is the outlier. Think boutique, whitewashed hotels around the Aegean coast and upmarket restaurants beyond the resort gates. It's also home to HYDE Bodrum, Turkey's only genuine adults-only all-inclusive hotel. It suits couples who want a quieter, design-led resort rather than a mega all-inclusive complex. Expect to pay a little more than Side or Marmaris for that.
Side is quieter and noticeably cheaper than Belek, with a charming old town built around ancient ruins. Resorts here tend to be family-friendly and mid-sized rather than sprawling. That suits parents who want good facilities without the scale, or price, of a Belek mega-resort.
Marmaris is Turkey's liveliest resort town, popular with younger travellers and groups. It's also one of the more affordable regions overall. Some budget three-star deals dip below £250pp, though the standard all-inclusive range (departing via Dalaman Airport) starts from around £355pp. It's less suited to travellers wanting a quiet week.
Kemer sits between pine-covered mountains and the coast, with a genuine split between budget mega-resorts and Turkey's most exclusive luxury properties. It's a good option if your travel party has different budgets, since both ends of the market are well represented here.
Alanya blends an old citadel and town centre with newer resort development, and it's genuinely good value; prices start from around £339pp. The honest trade-off is the transfer: Alanya sits roughly 90 minutes from Antalya Airport, noticeably longer than Belek, Lara or Side. Worth it for the price, less so if you want to minimise travel time.
Choosing by region is a good start. Choosing by who you're travelling with narrows it down further:
This is where generic booking sites are often vague, so here's the honest version, based on standard Turkish resort practice.
| Usually included | Usually charged extra |
| Breakfast, lunch and dinner in the main buffet | À la carte restaurants (often need booking, or capped visits) |
| Local beer, wine, spirits and soft drinks during set hours | Imported spirits, champagne, bottled wine and speciality coffees |
| Tea, coffee and snacks at set times | Room service, minibar and 24-hour snacks at some hotels |
| Use of pools, gym and most non-motorised activities | Spa treatments, motorised watersports and excursions |
| Your flights, transfers and hotel as part of the package | Tips, resort fees and local taxes, which vary by hotel |
One important distinction: your flights and transfers are part of the holiday package you book, not part of the “all-inclusive” board basis itself. All-inclusive describes what's covered once you're at the hotel, not how you got there.
There's no industry-wide standard for what “All Inclusive Plus”, “Premium” or “Ultra” actually means. It varies by hotel chain. Premium tiers usually add à la carte dining and a wider drinks list. The only reliable way to know is to read the specific hotel's inclusions list before you book, rather than trust the tier name alone. See SN Travel's inclusions guide for a fuller breakdown.
Yes, marginally. Turkey and Spain sit close together on price, with Turkey usually the slightly cheaper of the two, and both are noticeably cheaper than Greece.
According to All-Inclusive Guide's 2026 price index, the median nightly rate for a comparable all-inclusive resort is around $214 in Turkey versus $220 in Spain. That's a small gap, close to level. Greece runs roughly 20–25% higher than either. For UK travellers, the practical difference is less about the headline price and more about what it buys. Turkey's resorts tend to be larger and newer for the same spend, especially in Belek and Antalya.
Book 4 to 6 months ahead for the best choice of hotels over summer 2026. This matters most in Belek and Bodrum, where the top-rated properties sell out first. If price matters more than exact dates, aim for May, June or September instead. The weather is still warm, resorts are quieter, and prices are typically 20–30% lower than the July and August peak.
Last-minute deals do appear, but they're a gamble on which hotels are left, not a reliable way to get a specific resort. If you have a particular hotel in mind, book early instead.

Quick answers to common questions. Reach out if you need more help.
Usually, yes. Most Turkish all-inclusive resorts include local beer, wine and spirits during set hours, typically from late morning until midnight. Imported or premium brands are usually extra.
Airport transfers are part of the holiday package you book, not part of the all-inclusive board basis itself. Check that transfers are included in your specific package before you book.
There's no fixed industry standard. Premium tiers usually add à la carte restaurants and a wider drinks list, but inclusions vary by hotel, so always check the specific list rather than relying on the tier name.
The main buffet restaurant is included. À la carte restaurants often need booking in advance, and some hotels cap how many times you can visit them for free during your stay.
Budget hotels start from around £279–£450pp for 7 nights. Mid-range five-star runs £450–£700pp, and luxury or ultra all-inclusive starts around £700pp, reaching £1,600+pp in peak season.
Antalya, Lara Beach and Side are the strongest choices, with shallow beaches, family pools and well-established kids' clubs.
Bodrum. It's home to HYDE Bodrum, Turkey's only genuine adults-only all-inclusive resort, plus a wider choice of boutique, couples-focused hotels.
Marginally, yes. Median nightly resort prices are close ($214 in Turkey versus $220 in Spain), with Turkey usually slightly cheaper and both well below Greece.
Book 4–6 months ahead for the best choice in peak summer. For lower prices with good weather, travel in May, June or September instead.
Seven nights is the standard and best-value length. Four-night breaks are available in popular regions like Belek if you want a shorter trip.
Turkey's major resort regions (Antalya, Bodrum, Side, Marmaris) are well-established, heavily visited tourist areas with a strong safety record for holidaymakers. As with any destination, check the latest UK government travel advice before you book.
No. UK passport holders can visit Turkey visa-free for up to 90 days in any 180-day period. Your passport needs at least 150 days' validity left from your arrival date. Ignore any third-party site charging for an e-visa; UK tourists don't need one.
No, tips aren't usually included. It's customary to tip housekeeping and restaurant staff a small amount in cash, though this is optional and varies by hotel.
Yes, generally. Turkey offers some of Europe's best-value five-star resorts, with prices close to or slightly below Spain and clearly below Greece for a comparable standard of hotel.
Yes. All-inclusive covers meals and drinks at the resort, not medical costs, cancellations or lost luggage. A separate travel insurance policy is essential, the same as for any overseas trip.
The Turkish Lira (TRY) is the local currency. Many resorts and shops in tourist areas also accept euros, US dollars or card payments, but cash in Lira is useful for small purchases and tips.
