This large beach-front resort is located in Belek, next to Gloria Resort’s 45 holes of golf. Situated on the slopes of the Taurus Mountains and surrounded by an aromatic pine forest that stretches down to the sea, Gloria Verde embodies the Mediterranean spirit of relaxation. Six restaurants and five bars serve the finest cuisine and cocktails, while the huge list of facilities include gyms, pools and a private beach. But it’s the Asklepion Spa and Thalasso that sets this hotel apart. Here, the healing effects of spa massages are combined with the latest thalasso therapies. Gloria Resort offers three hotels and 45 holes of golf on three courses – the 18-hole Gloria Old and New courses and the nine-hole Gloria Verde course – so golfers are extremely well catered for. There is plenty for non-golfers too, such as the well-preserved Roman ruins of Perge, which are less than 30km from the resort. Antalya International Airport is a mere 30-minute drive away, making Gloria Verde easily accessible.www.gloria.com.tr
