Modern luxury, ancient majesty, man-made pleasures and natural wonders – a recipe for bliss on Turkey’s Turquoise Coast
Luminous seas, towering mountains, fascinating ancient sites and fabulous food – it’s no wonder Turkey is set to become Europe’s second-most visited destination this summer; and it’s popular with families, couples and friends alike.
And there’s no better partner for Turkey’s extraordinary natural beauty than Liberty Hotels & Resorts – a collection of six five-star hotels, each an idyllic cocoon of luxury with a world-class spa, innovative cuisine, shimmering swimming pools and even a private stretch of sugar-soft sand on Turkey’s Turquoise Coast.

For a blissful beach week, Oludeniz is the jewel in Turkey’s crown, where a flawless 18km stretch of sand is framed by mountains and curls into a tranquil lagoon. Liberty Lykia and Liberty Lykia Adults Only cater for all requirements, whether it’s a full-on family trip or a peaceful romantic escape. Choose from walks along the striking Lycian Way nearby, lazy-day boat trips on traditional gulets and once-in-a-lifetime bird’s eye views of the coastline, courtesy of a tandem paraglide from near the summit of Babadag Mountain.
A little further afield, the historic sites of Tlos and Xanthos, and the gorge walk at Saklikent National Park are ideal for half-day trips out. These are easily accessible from Liberty Fabay and the brand-new Liberty Signa, both set on Calis beach, a few miles north of Fethiye. Both of these hotels are wonderful for families, with Libby & Berty Kids Clubs entertaining children of all ages, while parents can relax in the spa or by one of the many pools.
Guests can choose from buzzy Kusadasi, close to the ancient port city of Ephesus; the sun-kissed sands of Oludeniz or Calis, both near the lively town of Fethiye; or the beautiful Antalya coast, home to some remarkable waterfalls, dozens of golf courses and dramatic Roman ruins. No matter the holiday you’re planning, there are Liberty Hotels & Resorts to suit.
