We are used to hearing about Antalya the tourist destination; Antalya the coastal resort town where people buy holiday homes to rent out to tourists for additional income. But this is not the whole story of Antalya.

Yes, Antalya is one of the top tourist destinations in Turkey; it offers almost everything that the holiday home buyer or holiday home investor is looking for in a destination.

Accessibility

Antalya international airport is one of the best served airports in Turkey, offering easy, cheap and regular access from most countries in Europe, including the UK and many more destinations around the world.

Climate

Antalya benefits from 300 days of sunshine per year, and while it is almost always warm, it is very rarely searingly hot as tourists have complained of in Spain’s touristic hotspots.

Great Beaches and Plenty of Amenities

Antalya has some of the best beaches in Turkey, as well as plenty of shops, restaurants, bars, and amenities

But to say that Antalya has plenty of shops, restaurants and amenities is a glaring understatement, for Antalya is the fourth largest city in Turkey, boasting a huge population. So of course Antalya has loads of amenities, but this also offers a whole new arm to its property investment potential as well.

We have all heard how Antalya property makes a great holiday home investment (fly to let), but with the population growing rapidly in affluence and number, it also has a strong residential market, which gives it great potential as a buy to let property investment destination as well.

Of course the growth in the city is also increasing the rental pool of holiday properties along the coast, and also strengthening the exit strategy for all property investments in Antalya. As the population grows richer, and access to mortgages in Turkey continues to improve, more and more Turks will be looking at buying their own homes, and then second homes on the coast.
