Antalya Airport → Grand Kolibri Prestige & Spa Transfer

Grand Kolibri Prestige & Spa to Antalya Airport: return transfer & taxi

Going home, the hotel's side of the road works in your favour. Out of the gate the car turns straight onto the westbound lanes of the D400 and is under way without crossing anything. The road back leads through Türkler, Avsallar and Okurcalar, where traffic lights and hotel turnings set the rhythm more than open highway does, then past Manavgat and Serik to the airport junction. Before dawn that whole stretch is quiet and the 95 minutes are comfortable; in late morning in high season, with coaches doing their rounds of the coast, allow more.

Departure mornings along this coast are when transfer coaches stop at hotel after hotel, collecting guests one entrance at a time. A private car leaves when you decide rather than when the last passenger has been gathered, so the decision that matters is the hour itself. Work it back from the flight: 95 minutes for the 111 km, then whatever time your airline asks you to spend in the terminal, then a margin for the Manavgat section on a summer day. The car waits at the hotel's main entrance on the highway side.

• Set the departure time when you book the arrival; arranging both legs at once is simpler than doing it later through reception.
• Give the number of suitcases and mention any pushchair, because the vehicle is chosen by luggage as much as by head count.
• For a very early flight, tell reception the evening before that you will leave ahead of breakfast, so the bill and keys can be settled then.
