Lara Beach Airport Transfer: Antalya Airport to Lara and Kundu in 20 Minutes

Lara Beach is the closest beach resort area to Antalya Airport. The long sandy beach and the big hotels of Lara and Kundu are only about 12–18 km from the terminals, so your holiday can start less than half an hour after you collect your bags. A private transfer is the quickest and simplest way to cover that short distance.

The route

From the airport, your driver heads south towards the coast, passing the eastern edge of Antalya city. Lara Beach is about 12 km away, and the hotels of Kundu, further east along the same beach, about 15–18 km. The journey usually takes 15–25 minutes, depending on your hotel and the traffic on the coastal boulevard.

Price

The fare from Antalya Airport to Lara and Kundu is €35 per vehicle, our minimum fare. It covers a private Mercedes Vito for up to 6 passengers and 6 large suitcases, airport fees and 60 minutes of free waiting after landing. For a family of four the price per person is lower than most shared shuttle seats.

Meeting your driver

Enter your flight number when you book. We follow the flight and adjust to the actual landing time. After passport control and baggage reclaim, your driver waits in the arrivals hall with your name on a sign, takes the trolley and walks with you to the car. Child seats are free if you request them.

Why book a transfer for such a short trip?

• A fixed price agreed in advance – no meter, no cash needed.
• Room for 6 people and 6 suitcases in one vehicle.
• No queue at the taxi rank, even when several flights land together.
• Free child seats, which taxis rarely carry.

The way back

Because Lara is so close, you can leave your hotel later than guests in Kemer or Side. For an international flight, about two hours and a quarter before departure is usually enough; allow more on summer weekends, when check-in queues at Antalya are long.

Villas, apartments and door-to-door pickups

Lara is both a resort area and a residential district of Antalya. Alongside the big beach hotels of Lara and Kundu there are apartment blocks, rental flats and family homes. A door-to-door transfer takes you from the arrivals hall to the entrance of whichever address you are going to.

Areas and fare

From Antalya Airport the fare is €35 per vehicle to:

• the hotels along Lara Beach,
• the hotels of Kundu, further east,
• apartments and homes in the Lara and Güzeloba neighbourhoods,
• other addresses in eastern Antalya close to the airport.

The vehicle is a Mercedes Vito for up to 6 passengers and 6 large suitcases. For addresses further into the city, enter the exact location to see the price.

Apartments and residential sites

Residential complexes in Lara often have several blocks behind a gate. Please add in the booking notes:

• the site name and block number,
• a contact phone number of the owner, host or family member,
• gate codes or instructions for late arrivals.

The journey

Your driver meets you in arrivals with a name sign, loads your luggage and drives the 12–18 km to your address in about 15–25 minutes. At the door, the bags are unloaded. For the return trip, the pickup is at the same entrance.

Night arrivals at private addresses

Many flights land at Antalya late in the evening or after midnight. Residential streets in Lara can look alike in the dark, and site security may not know you are coming. Tell your host your arrival time, and give the driver a phone number that will be answered – that way the gate is open when you arrive.

Visiting family in Antalya

If you are booking for relatives who are coming to stay with you in Lara, use their names for the sign and your phone number in the notes, so the driver can call you if needed.

Planning your arrival and departure

Lara is one of the most convenient holiday destinations on the Turkish Riviera: close to the airport, close to the city, with a long beach. This guide covers the transfers you need from landing to flying home.

Before you travel

• Book once your flights are confirmed, especially for July and August weekends.
• Book both directions together. Choose “Return” on the search form; you pay once and the return leg is discounted.
• Add your flight number for tracking.
• Mention children’s ages – child seats are free.

Arrival

Your driver waits in the arrivals hall with your name on a sign. The first 60 minutes after landing are free. The drive to Lara or Kundu takes 15–25 minutes and costs €35 per vehicle for up to 6 passengers and 6 large suitcases.

During your stay

From Lara Beach, by road:

• Kaleiçi (old town) – about 18 km, 40 minutes in evening traffic
• Belek and the Land of Legends – about 22 km, 30 minutes
• Konyaaltı Beach – about 34 km, 40 minutes
• Side – about 66 km, 1 hour 15 minutes
• Kemer – about 70 km, 1 hour 10 minutes

Shopping and city life

Unlike more isolated resorts, Lara is part of Antalya. Shopping centres such as TerraCity are nearby, and the city’s restaurants and nightlife are within easy reach. Short trips are easily done by local taxi; for the old town in the evening, a pre-booked return saves waiting for a taxi late at night.

The Lower Düden waterfall

One of Lara’s own sights is the Lower Düden waterfall, where the Düden river drops straight off the cliffs into the sea. It is on the coast road between Lara and the city centre, a short taxi ride from most hotels, and best seen in the late afternoon. Boat trips from Antalya’s old harbour also pass beneath it.

Departure

Leave Lara about two and a quarter hours before an international flight; on summer weekends, two and a half. Your driver collects you at your hotel’s entrance.

Changes

Send changes at least 48 hours before the pickup. Cancellation is free up to 24 hours before the pickup; later cancellations are not refundable; see the cancellation policy.

All-inclusive resorts

Lara’s resorts line one of the longest sandy beaches near Antalya, from the edge of the city eastwards into Kundu, where some of the region’s biggest all-inclusive hotels stand side by side. All of them are within about 20 minutes of Antalya Airport.

Resort areas

• Lara – resorts and city hotels near the coastal boulevard, closest to Antalya’s centre.
• Kundu – further east along the same beach, with very large resorts, many of them themed.

From Antalya Airport, the fixed fare to both is €35 per vehicle, for up to 6 passengers and 6 large suitcases.

Arriving at your resort

The large resorts in Kundu have long driveways and security gates; your driver knows the procedure and stops at the main reception. During check-in, your luggage is unloaded. If your room is not ready, the resort will normally store your bags and let you use the facilities.

Check-out day

Check-out is usually around midday. If your flight is in the evening, ask about late check-out or a day room. Because the airport is so close, a pickup about two and a quarter hours before an international departure is normally enough.

Leaving the resort

Lara is a good base for exploring Antalya. The old town, Kaleiçi, is about 18 km away; the Lower Düden waterfall is on the cliffs between Lara and the city; the Land of Legends theme park in Belek is about 22 km east. See transfers from Lara for fixed-price outings.

The resort coach alternative

Package holidays often include a coach transfer. On such a short route it can still take a long time, because the coach waits for several flights and stops at several resorts. A private transfer leaves when you are ready and goes only to your resort.

Airport taxi or pre-booked transfer?

Taxis from the rank

Licensed taxis wait outside the terminal buildings and charge by the meter. To Lara the fare depends on the exact hotel, the route and the traffic, and you pay at the end. The cars are usually saloons for up to four passengers. When several international flights land at once – common on summer evenings – the queue at the rank can be long.

Which suits you?

• One or two people with little luggage: a taxi from the rank may cost about the same; choose whichever you prefer.
• Families and groups up to six: one Vito instead of two taxis, at one fixed price.
• Late-night arrivals: a named driver waiting inside the terminal instead of a queue outside.
• With children: free child seats with a transfer.

Getting around Lara

For short trips within Lara – to the TerraCity shopping centre, the Lower Düden waterfall on the cliffs or a restaurant along the coast road – local taxis are quick and easy. Antalya’s old town, Kaleiçi, is about 18 km from Lara Beach; with evening traffic, a pre-booked car with a fixed price is the calmer option.

Hotel transfers in Lara Beach

Compared with other options

• Hotel-arranged car: ask for the hotel’s price and compare it with ours.
• Package coach: often included, but with waiting and other hotel stops.
• Taxi: metered and usually a saloon; fine for two people with little luggage.
• Private transfer: fixed price, flight-tracked, 60 minutes free waiting, driver with your name in arrivals.

Check-in and check-out

Hotels usually hand over rooms in the early afternoon and expect guests out around midday. After a morning arrival, go straight to the hotel; your luggage will be stored. On departure day, ask about late check-out and book your pickup about two and a quarter hours before your flight.

City hotels

Not every Lara hotel is a beach resort; some are city hotels on the main roads behind the beach. Your driver will stop as close to the entrance as traffic allows.

Late arrivals

If your flight lands late at night, let the hotel know you will arrive after midnight; large resorts have 24-hour reception, but smaller city hotels sometimes need notice. Your driver is in the arrivals hall whatever the time, at the same fixed fare, and the roads to Lara are quiet at night.

Hotel to hotel

Changing hotels? From Lara, Belek is about 22 km away, Konyaaltı about 34 km and Side about 66 km. Enter both hotels on the booking form for a fixed price.

Groups, weddings and events

Plan by flight

Send us a list of names, flight numbers, landing times, number of passengers and hotel. We plan vehicles per flight:

• up to 6 passengers: one Mercedes Vito, €35 to Lara or Kundu;
• 7–12 passengers: two Vitos (€70) or a minibus;
• larger groups: minibuses, quoted individually.

Quick turnarounds

Because the hotels are so close to the airport, one vehicle can often make several airport runs in a few hours. That makes it practical to meet each flight individually rather than holding guests at the airport for the last arrival.

Signs and meeting point

Drivers wait in arrivals with the event name, company name or guest name on the sign. Each flight is tracked, with 60 minutes of free waiting after landing.

During the event

Evening programmes often take guests into Antalya: Kaleiçi and the old harbour are about 18 km from Lara Beach. Allow for city traffic in the early evening. Transfers can be planned for each part of the programme.

Exhibitions and congresses

Antalya hosts trade fairs and congresses throughout the year, and many visitors stay in Lara and Kundu hotels because of their proximity to the airport. For a congress with a fixed start time, plan arrivals for the day before – the transfer is short, but flight delays are not.

Departures

For departures, we plan pickups by flight time. From Lara, two and a quarter hours before an international flight is normally enough.
