Side Featured Hotels

Side is an ancient harbour town on Turkey's Mediterranean coast, 75 km east of Antalya. Founded by Greek colonists in the 7th century BCE and later a major Roman port, it sits on a small peninsula where the Manavgat River meets the sea. The old town occupies the original Greco-Roman city, with cobbled streets running between an intact Roman theatre, the seafront Temple of Apollo, and ruined city walls.

Modern Side blends ancient sites with all-inclusive resort hotels stretching east toward Manavgat and west toward Kumkoy. The town centre is mostly pedestrianised inside the Roman gate. Antalya Airport (AYT) is the main entry point, 65 km away, with private transfers and the HAVAS bus serving the resort area.
