The trip
Overview
Belek was purpose-built for exactly this holiday: a pine-backed Mediterranean shoreline east of Antalya where a dozen championship courses sit beside large five-star resorts, and where the all-inclusive board basis genuinely suits a golf group — big breakfasts before early tee times, à-la-carte dinners to compare scorecards over. Flight time from Dubai is around four and a half hours, which makes it one of the easiest serious golf weeks on our list.
The shape is simple: seven nights in one resort, four rounds on a spread of Belek’s best-regarded courses — the Carya and National among the names we typically request — short transfers of five to twenty minutes on playing days, and a proper rest day in the middle. Resorts here handle golfers well: club storage, early breakfasts, late checkouts on request. We match the resort-and-course combination to your group and confirm every element before you commit.

Day by day
Day 1
Dubai to Antalya, resort check-in
The afternoon flight from Dubai reaches Antalya in under five hours; Belek is thirty-five minutes from the airport. Check in, store the clubs, first all-inclusive dinner. Resort style: large five-star with multiple à-la-carte restaurants and its own stretch of beach.
Days 2–3
Opening rounds
Two morning rounds on courses in the resort’s immediate orbit — typically the Carya’s sandy heathland and the National, Türkiye’s original championship course. Back at the resort by two for pool, beach and the swim-up debate about handicaps. All course access unverified until confirmed.
Day 4
Rest day
No golf. Hammam and spa morning, beach afternoon — or a half-day trip to the Roman theatre at Aspendos and the old harbour at Side, both under an hour away. Groups with energy to burn can book the floodlit par-three or driving range after dark.
Days 5–6
The back nine of the week
Rounds three and four on two further championship layouts — Belek has more than a dozen, and we pick for variety and conditioning in your travel month rather than reciting famous names. Evenings rotate through the à-la-carte restaurants; book the Turkish grill night early.
Day 7
Free day, played or spent
A flexible final full day: add an optional fifth round, re-play the course that beat you, or take the beach and pool day the scorecard says you have earned. Farewell dinner and, in season, the resort’s evening entertainment.
Day 8
Home to the UAE
Breakfast, checkout and the short transfer to Antalya airport for the return flight — most groups land in Dubai by late evening.

For non-golfers
When to go
Belek’s golf seasons are spring (March–May) and autumn (October–November), when temperatures sit in the twenties and courses are at their best; both align well with UAE term-time windows. July and August are beach-first months — golf means dawn tee times. Winter golf is playable and quiet, with occasional rain days built into sensible planning.
