Cullinan Belek brings water-led design, expansive beachfront living and sun-soaked Easter moments for all the family in the heart of the Turkish Riviera
Set along the glistening Mediterranean shores of Antalya, Cullinan Belek offers the sort of sun-drenched, toes-in-the-sand escapism usually reserved for long-haul destinations, yet it’s just over four hours from London.
Stretching along 800 metres of powder-soft white sand, the all-inclusive Cullinan Belek pairs turquoise waters with impressive pools, generously sized rooms and suites, and a world of dining at guests’ fingertips. From leisurely beachfront lunches to championship-level tee times on its own on-site golf course, the resort offers a luxury Mediterranean escape.
For families planning an Easter escape, Cullinan Belek offers a balance between children’s independence and effortless ease for adults. Thoughtful, attentive service allows the whole family to settle into the holiday rhythm at their own pace, whether that means days filled with activities or long, relaxing afternoons by the sea.
Mediterranean Living
Cullinan Belek unfolds along the sparkling Mediterranean shoreline, with the beach forming the natural centre of the resort. Custom-designed wooden piers reach out into the water, where hammocks hang above the sea and steps lead directly down straight into the water. Just beyond the sand, expansive outdoor pools provide additional space to relax.
For families travelling together, Cullinan Belek offers a range of rooms and villas suited to different generations, from Swim-up and Lagoon Rooms with direct pool access to private villas designed for larger groups. The range of accommodation is perfect for multi-generational stays, allowing grandparents, parents and children to remain together while enjoying a sense of space and privacy.
Upupa Kids Club
For young families, Upupa Kids Club runs from morning through to late evening, offering a fun-filled schedule of activities led by an energetic and dedicated team.
Workshops include fashion design, ceramics, woodcraft and art, offering children creative sessions throughout their stay. Time outdoors is also part of the experience, with opportunities to explore the gardens, observe butterflies and birds, and visit Back Farm to discover Mediterranean vegetables growing straight from the vine.
For parents wanting to have a quiet dinner, or enjoy drinks at the bar, babysitting services are available until 2am.
Dining at Cullinan Belek
Dining at Cullinan Belek moves from relaxed beachside lunches to more refined evening settings. Turkish cuisine is showcased at Hasır, while Pascarella serves Italian classics including handcrafted pasta and wood-fired pizzas. Nori focuses on teppanyaki and Asian-inspired dishes, Yamas offers Greek flavours, and Beef Grill Club centres on premium cuts.
A patisserie serves handmade desserts, and Galapagos Beach Club acts as the beachfront venue, offering light dishes and cocktails by day before transitioning into an evening setting with DJs and Mediterranean sunset views.
Those with children will find dedicated menu runs alongside the wider dining offering, ensuring younger guests are just as well looked after at the table.
Wellness and Golf at Cullinan Belek
C’espace Spa spans 8,000 square metres and includes a traditional Turkish hammam, treatment rooms and indoor and outdoor pools designed for slower moments away from the busier areas of the resort.
Guests also have access to Cullinan Links Golf Club, a 36-hole complex comprising the Olympos and Aspendos championship courses. Set along the coastline, it is the only golf club in Turkey with views of both the Mediterranean and a river, adding a serious draw for keen golfing families.
Cullinan Belek offers a seamless blend of Mediterranean sunshine, thoughtful family experiences and all-inclusive luxury, making it an effortless choice for those seeking a Easter escape, just a short flight from home.
