This resort was built around one idea: water. Its main pool, Wonderland, covers 10,000 m² and is one of the largest hotel pools in the Mediterranean. Alongside it are twelve more adult pools, five for children, four heated, a lazy river, a wave pool and an aquapark. It opened in 2017 on a 100,000 m² site in Belek.
Location, and read the beach note before you book
From Antalya Airport it is 33-35 km, roughly 35 minutes by car.
About the beach. We say this plainly because most sites do not: the hotel is not on the sea. Its private beach is about 1.7 km away and the hotel runs a free shuttle to it. The beach itself is exclusive to the hotel, and sunbeds, umbrellas and towels are included. This is not a problem if you know in advance. Many of our guests never leave the pool area, and the main pool here is bigger than some hotels. It becomes a real problem if you book expecting to walk from your room to the sea. If a beachfront room is a condition for you, ask us about Susesi or Nirvana Cosmopolitan instead: both are directly on the water.
Pools
Twelve adult pools, five for children, four heated. Outdoors: Wonderland, the 10,000 m² main pool; a 3,147 m² relaxation pool; a wave pool; a children’s pool with slides; the family lake houses pool; the lazy river; the Maldivian pool; and the water park. Indoors: a 190 m² saltwater pool, a 510 m² freshwater pool, a heated 24 m² indoor children’s pool and a half-Olympic pool for guests aged 18 and over.
The aquapark has nine adult slides plus a separate children’s aquapark. All of it sits inside the Wonderland entertainment zone, which also holds a funfair, a sports centre, a show arena, a restaurant area and a night club.
Rooms
More than 850 rooms, suites and villas: standard and deluxe standard; family and deluxe family rooms with two bedrooms and two bathrooms; family lake houses with a private pool; the Granada Villa at 205 m² with a private pool and jacuzzi; Maldivian houses; and King, Princess and Senior suites, some with a private jacuzzi. Seven rooms are adapted for guests with reduced mobility.
For families who want full privacy, the villas and lake houses with their own pools are the best option on this list. The jacuzzi in the Granada Villa and the King suite is fully enclosed and screened. The King suite also has a sauna inside it.
