Driver's note: An all-inclusive hotel at Titreyengöl, open since 2015, with water slides over its pools, a mini club and its own sandy beach a short walk or free summer shuttle away.
Antalya Airport to Port River Hotel & Spa private transfer
The address printed on your booking reads Titreyengöl Mevkii, Side, and that is exactly where the car sets you down. The route leaves Antalya Airport heading east, passes Belek and Serik, follows the Side road towards Manavgat and then turns inland through the pines for Titreyengöl. The distance is 65 km and the drive takes 55 to 70 minutes once traffic is allowed for. At the end of the resort road the Ottoman-influenced facade the hotel has carried since it opened comes into view, and you step out at reception rather than at a rank.
Agreeing the fare before you fly is what keeps an arrival of this length uncomplicated. We quote in writing on WhatsApp and the figure does not move afterwards: a Mercedes Vito from €55, or an eight-seat minivan from €60, charged for the vehicle rather than for each seat. The same figure applies at any hour, because the service runs 24/7 with no night rate added after dark. You settle with the driver in cash on arrival at Titreyengöl, in EUR, USD or TRY, so nothing is taken from a card in advance, and cancellation is free up to 4 hours before the agreed pickup.
Port River sells all-inclusive board and keeps water slides over its pools, a separate children's pool with slides, a mini club and a games room, and a family arriving for that brings pushchairs and beach bags on top of the cases. A Mercedes Vito from €55 seats up to six and takes tall cases, a pushchair and the soft bags that travel with children without anything going on a lap. Larger parties, or relatives arriving on the same flight, fit into the eight-seat minivan from €60, which seats up to eight and keeps the group together for the whole run. Seats for children cost nothing extra, so put the ages in the WhatsApp thread and the correct ones go in before the car sets out for the terminal.
Your flight number is what makes the meeting work. We follow the inbound aircraft, so a late landing shifts the pickup rather than costing you the car. The driver stands in the arrivals hall with a board showing your name, whichever gate your flight releases you through, and you have 60 minutes of free waiting from touchdown to absorb the passport queue and a slow baggage belt. He takes the heavy cases across to the car park and loads them, and the air conditioning is already on when you open the door.
The journey home is arranged the same way. Send the departure time on WhatsApp and we set a pickup from the hotel entrance that allows for the 55 to 70 minute run back plus check-in at the terminal, at the fare you were quoted for the inbound leg. Guests staying at Titreyengöl often add other legs while they are here, whether that is the theme park at Kadriye, an afternoon among the ruins at Side or an errand into Manavgat, and each is quoted in writing before the car moves. Ask for the whole stay at once and every leg is confirmed in the same thread.
The name board in Antalya arrivals, and the road to Titreyengöl
No desk has to be found and no fare has to be argued over at the kerb. Passport control, then the belt, then the hall: by the time you walk out, a board with your name on it is already being held up for you, at the domestic or the international gate as your flight requires. Flight tracking means the car is timed to the aircraft rather than to the schedule, and the 60 minutes of free waiting cover the queue and the belt without a charge appearing. The driver wheels the cases out to the car park, loads them and holds the door, and the run to Titreyengöl starts from there.
Choosing the Vito or the minivan for Titreyengöl
The hotel's own beach is a short walk from the building, with a free shuttle through the summer season, so the bags coming off the plane here tend to hold beach kit as well as clothes. A Mercedes Vito from €55 has the boot height for hard cases stood upright and a sliding door that is kinder than a low seat when your arms are full, and we run van-class vehicles only, so a couple travelling light is sent the same class of car as a family. Where relatives are travelling together, the eight-seat minivan from €60 keeps the whole party in one vehicle rather than two. Whichever you take, seats for infants, toddlers and older children are fitted to order and added to the fare at no cost.
Late landings and the last stretch to the hotel
Titreyengöl lies at the far end of the Side road, so a landing after dark is the leg worth getting right. The service runs 24/7 and the quoted fare stands whatever the hour shows, with no surcharge for an evening or an early-morning arrival. Book the transfer under the surname the room is held in, so the two bookings agree, and the driver can set you down at reception rather than short of it on the resort road. For a dawn departure we work backwards from the 55 to 70 minute drive and confirm the pickup the evening before.
Good to know for Port River Hotel & Spa
- Send your flight number on WhatsApp at the time of booking, so the car is timed to the aircraft rather than to the printed schedule.
- Give the ages of your children when you book and the free infant, toddler or booster seats are fitted before the car leaves for the terminal.
- Bring notes in EUR, USD or TRY, since the driver is paid once you reach Titreyengöl and no card machine travels in the vehicle.
- If relatives are on the same flight, ask for the eight-seat minivan from €60 rather than splitting the party between vehicles.
- Book the return a day ahead on WhatsApp and allow the 55 to 70 minute drive plus check-in time before an early departure.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much is a taxi from Antalya Airport to Port River Hotel & Spa?
The fare is fixed and charged for the vehicle. A Mercedes Vito, seating up to six, is from €55; an eight-seat minivan, seating up to eight, is from €60. It is quoted in writing on WhatsApp before you travel, it does not change with traffic, and the return leg is the same figure.
How long does the transfer to Port River Hotel & Spa take?
The drive covers 65 km and takes 55 to 70 minutes, running east past Belek and Serik and along the Side road before the turn inland to Titreyengöl. Because the fare is agreed beforehand, a slow stretch of road costs you time but not money.
Where does the driver meet me at the airport?
In the arrivals hall, where he stands with your name printed on a board, at whichever gate your flight comes through. You do not need to call anyone or look for a rank: collect your luggage, walk out, find your name, and the driver takes the cases from there to the car park.
What happens if my flight is delayed?
The number you send on WhatsApp lets us watch the aircraft itself, so a delay moves the meeting instead of ending it. You are also given 60 minutes of free waiting once the wheels are down, which covers passport control and a slow belt without anything being added to the fare.
Do you provide child seats for the drive to Titreyengöl?
Yes, at no charge. Infant seats, child seats and boosters are all available, so tell us the ages on WhatsApp and the right ones are fitted before the car leaves. A Mercedes Vito from €55 still has room for a pushchair and the beach bags once the seats are in.
How do I pay, and can I cancel?
Cash goes to the driver at the hotel door, in EUR, USD or TRY; nothing is charged beforehand, and the 24/7 service carries no night rate. Should the trip fall away, you may cancel free of charge up to 4 hours ahead of the agreed pickup.
