Antalya Airport → Acanthus & Cennet Barut Collection Transfer

Acanthus & Cennet Barut Collection to Antalya Airport: return transfer & taxi

On the way out the car turns from Özal Caddesi onto İnönü Bulvarı and retraces the coastal boulevards north-west, then climbs Sahil Caddesi to rejoin the D400 at the Kumköy lights. That first stretch, about five kilometres, is town driving. In July and August it stays busy late into the evening with shuttle buses, hire cars and people crossing towards the beach; before six in the morning it is empty and passes in a few minutes. From the junction the highway runs west through Gündoğdu, Serik and Aksu, and the whole 65 km normally fits the 60 minutes quoted.

Because Andız and Acanthus share Özal Caddesi, a pickup in the dark goes more smoothly if you wait inside the Acanthus entrance rather than out on the pavement, where two hotel driveways a few doors apart are easy to mix up. Agree the hour when you book, counting back from the flight: an hour on the road, the queue at check-in and security, and some margin. With an evening flight, the last afternoon can go on the old town and the harbour on foot, and the car still collects you from the hotel at the agreed time.

• Put Özal Caddesi 35 on the departure booking as well as the full name, because a driver working from the word Barut alone could head for Hemera or Goia.
• Flights before eight mean an empty town and a quick climb to the D400; mid-afternoon departures in high season meet the boulevards at their slowest.
• If the airline moves your departure after you have booked, send us the new time by message and the pickup is rescheduled to suit.
