Driver's note: A five-star all-inclusive resort on the Kundu beachfront with indoor and outdoor pools, waterslides and a private beach.
Antalya Airport to Melas Lara Hotel private transfer
Step out of customs at Antalya Airport and your driver is already in the hall, a Melas Lara Hotel sign held up so you skip the rank entirely. Kundu sits just along the shore, so the car is soon on the brief coastal hop to the Lara beachfront where Melas Lara Hotel lines up its waterslides above a private stretch of sand. The distance is a mere 15 km, covered in 20 to 25 minutes by private car, so the children can be sizing up the slides while the flight is still fresh in mind.
Kundu may be near the runway, but a taxi meter starts charging from the kerb and a shared minibus threads through other Lara hotels before it finally reaches yours. We fix the number on paper before you set off: from 20 € in a sedan, from 30 € in a Mercedes Vito VIP, each quoted for the car and one way, with no late-hour premium and no small print. You hand it over at the door, so a short distance stays a short, honest fare instead of a meter you keep watching.
Melas Lara Hotel welcomes both sun-lovers and families, with indoor pools for cooler days and outdoor pools and slides through summer, so the vehicle follows your group and your bags. Up to four with ordinary cases are comfortable in the sedan from 20 €. A family of five or six, or anyone with a buggy and armfuls of pool floats, spreads into the Mercedes Vito VIP from 30 € for the quick run to Kundu. Complimentary child seats are set up in the sizes you name, and a larger minivan suits a group taking several rooms.
Two terminals serve Antalya Airport; send the flight number through WhatsApp and we keep watch, so a T1 or T2 landing, punctual or delayed, still finds the driver ready. Your meeting spot is the arrivals exit and the Melas Lara Hotel name-board beside it. A free hour of waiting covers the passport desk and the luggage belt, and the driver gathers the bags before the short stroll to the car. The drop is right at the Melas Lara Hotel entrance on the Kundu beachfront.
Arranging the trip back to Antalya Airport is identical and identically priced per car, with a pickup timed to your departure so nothing feels rushed. From the Kundu strip the excursions come easily: the Land of Legends theme park east at Kadriye, Antalya's old harbour and quarter to the west, and the waterfalls and bazaar further on. A WhatsApp message any time brings a fixed quote for each, so a single driver looks after the whole stay.
Finding your driver at AYT arrivals
Nobody to locate, no coach party to join. The driver is in the arrivals hall with a Melas Lara Hotel name-board the instant you emerge. We keep tabs on the inbound flight, so an early or a late touchdown makes no difference, and the free hour of waiting covers a sluggish belt or a long passport line. The driver picks up the heavy cases and leads you to a nearby car, then makes the short coastal hop to Kundu without another pickup en route.
The right car for a Melas Lara Hotel stay
This beachfront all-inclusive suits couples after the private sand and families after the waterslides and pools, so bookings run from two adults to a full house. Four passengers with standard cases fit the sedan from 20 €. Five or six, or anyone travelling with a buggy and pool gear, do better in the Mercedes Vito VIP from 30 €. Free infant, toddler and booster seats are fitted to order, and a roomier minivan takes a group reserving several rooms at the resort.
Midnight landings and dawn departures
Even a short distance is smoother with the car already arranged for the last flight in or the first flight out. Whatever the hour, no night premium is added, and the quoted fare reads the same after midnight as at noon. For an early flight home the pickup is set at the Melas Lara Hotel entrance to match your check-out, with room for the brief 20-to-25-minute run to AYT. The driver takes cash in euros, dollars or lira, and nothing is paid ahead to secure the car.
Good to know for Melas Lara Hotel
- Keep the driver's WhatsApp handy and message on touchdown at AYT, so the car is at the kerb by the time you walk out.
- Melas Lara Hotel is on the Kundu beachfront, so reserve under the full name to be sure of a Lara-strip drop rather than a Belek one.
- Note the children's ages when booking and the correct free seats are already in place when the car turns up.
- With indoor pools running out of season too, even a winter landing is worth a warm private car straight to reception.
- Have euros, dollars or lira ready for the driver; nothing is prepaid and there is no card reader on board.
