The Property — Rixos Premium Belek
The Rixos Premium Belek feels like a vast, manicured resort complex where every detail is turned up to eleven: think endless pools, an outsized lobby with polished marble and tropical greenery, and staff in crisp whites who seem to outnumber guests. Its USP is the exclusive 'Ultra All Inclusive' concept — drinks flow freely anywhere on site, including the private beach — and the sprawling Anjana Spa, one of Europe's largest. This is a place for families wanting non-stop kids' clubs and water slides, or couples who prize effortless luxury without leaving the compound. Standing in the lobby, you get a mix of upmarket hotel and cruise-ship energy: polished, slightly impersonal, but undeniably comfortable.
Chronicles of Belek
Belek was a quiet fishing village until the 1980s, when the Turkish government designated the area for tourism development, transforming pine forests and coastal dunes into golf courses and resort hotels. The town's modern identity is built entirely around this planned resort model — there is no ancient centre, just a strip of luxury hotels, two dozen championship golf courses, and the long, sandy beach. Its architecture is uniformly contemporary Mediterranean: low-rise, pastel-toned, dotted with palms and bougainvillea. Today, Belek is Turkey's premier golf destination and a magnet for package-holiday tourists from Europe, especially Britain, Germany and Russia. The cultural identity is less about local traditions and more about curated leisure: eating, swimming, golfing and doing very little else.
Best Time to Visit
Full Belek guide →Best months
May and September offer reliably hot, sunny days with lower humidity and far fewer families than July-August, making them ideal for golf and beach time.
Peak / festival surge
July and August are peak season; temperatures hit 35-40°C and schools across Europe are out. Prices at Rixos nearly double, and the resort is packed with families. The only events are the summer heat and the relentless demand for sunbeds.
Budget shoulder season
June and October are the budget-friendly shoulders — June is still very hot but less crowded; October cools to high 20s°C, pools are emptier and room rates drop by 30-40%.
Weather & packing
Belek's climate is classic Mediterranean with a coastal twist: sea breezes can feel cool at sunset even when the day was blistering. Pack light linen and cotton for daytime, but bring a thin jumper or pashmina for evenings, especially if dining outdoors.
Live City Briefing — Belek
- The new Belek Marina, opened in late 2025, has added several decent seafood restaurants and a small boardwalk — a new option if you want an evening out beyond the resort.
- Antalya Airport (AYT), 30 minutes away, completed its new terminal expansion in early 2026, which has eased the usual summer queues, but expect 30-45 minute waits during peak July departures.
- A major road-widening project on the D400 between Belek and Serik is ongoing through summer 2026, causing sporadic delays on the Antalya–Belek route; allow an extra 20 minutes for airport transfers.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Rixos Premium Belek, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request an upper-floor room in the main wing facing the garden or pool. The extra height cuts any residual street noise from the Iskele Mevkii approach, and you get a view over the resort grounds rather than the access road.
Rooms to avoid
Steer clear of ground-floor rooms near the main lobby or the outdoor bar areas – footfall and evening music can carry. Also avoid rooms directly overlooking the self-parking lot: headlights and early arrivals can disturb sleep.
Best views
Rooms on the south or west side of the main wing overlook the pool terraces and gardens. North-facing rooms look out toward the access road and the self-parking lot – not a complete loss, but less resort-like.
Quietest floors
Floors 3 to 5 in the main wing are your best bet. High enough to avoid ground-level noise, low enough for quick lift access. The sixth floor and above are also quiet but may have slight mechanical hum from roof plant.
🔊 Noise notes
The hotel sits on the Iskele Mevkii approach road, which feeds local traffic and coach drop-offs. Valet and self-parking areas are right outside the main entrance, so lobby-level rooms get some car and people noise. Garden paths are spread out but the resort bar area can get lively until late.
Insider tips
1. Use the free electric vehicle charging if you’re driving a Tesla – it’s often available but first-come, first-served. 2. Check in early or late afternoon: the lobby can get busy with tour groups around 11am–2pm. Request a garden-view room at booking, not at check-in, as upgrade options are limited.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
