Driver's note on Side Star Elegance: A five-star, ultra all-inclusive hotel at the seafront in Kumköy with a Blue Flag sand beach, outdoor water slides and an indoor pool heated through the winter.
The ride from Side Star Elegance
A park day from Side Star Elegance starts at the main entrance rather than at a rank. The car comes up to the door by reception, swim bags and towels go into the boot, and the driver takes the Kumköy road out to the coastal highway and runs west past Serik before the Kadriye turn for the theme park. The distance is 40 km and the drive normally takes 35 to 45 minutes, with the park gates appearing at the end of the approach road.
Booking the whole car removes what usually spoils a park day: a meter climbing while you sit in summer traffic, and a negotiation at the gate when everybody wants to leave at once. What you will pay is written down on WhatsApp before the car turns into the hotel drive and stays there: €45 upwards for a Mercedes Vito, €55 for the larger minivan, charged on the vehicle rather than by the seat, with the ride home at the same figure. You hand the driver cash in euros, dollars or lira at the end, and because we run 24/7 there is no evening supplement for a late finish.
The Vito suits a family leaving this ultra all-inclusive hotel for the day, with room for a pushchair, a cool bag and everything that comes back wet from the water zones. The sliding door is kind on tired legs, and free child seats and boosters are fitted before the car reaches Kumköy, so give the children's ages when you message. Bear in mind that the rides and the water zones inside the park need a ticket, bought separately from the transfer, while Shopping Avenue at the front is generally free to walk into.
Where the car waits at Side Star Elegance
The driver comes in off the Kumköy road and stops at the main entrance, name board in hand. Nobody has to trek out to the main road or stand about by the beach gate. Send a WhatsApp message when you leave the breakfast buffet and the car will be at the door as you reach the lobby, with the boot open for towels, swim bags and a pushchair.
What a park day looks like from Kumköy
The rides fill the morning and the water zones take the hot part of the afternoon, and both of those sit inside the gates and need a ticket, which is bought separately from your transfer. Shopping Avenue at the front is generally free to walk into, so it is worth an hour for the aquarium and the shops whether or not you have admission for the rest. Families who are used to the sand and the water slides at the hotel tend to pack the same bag for the park: swim things, a towel, sun cream and reef shoes.
After the finale: the road back to Kumköy
The parade, the dancing fountains and the castle finale are staged on Shopping Avenue and need no park ticket, which makes an evening trip from Kumköy easy to justify on its own. The programme changes through the season, so go by the dates on the park's own listing before we fix the car on WhatsApp. Your driver waits at no extra cost, with no evening supplement whatever the hour, and once you message him after the finale the car is at the gate about 15 minutes later for the run east along the coast to Kumköy.
Night-show tip: A good way to do it from Kumköy is to keep the day for the sand and the pools at the hotel, then take a late car across for dinner and the evening on Shopping Avenue, where the parade, the fountains and the castle finale need no park ticket. The evening programme is not fixed from month to month, so look up the park's official schedule for your date before you settle on a pickup. Send a WhatsApp as the castle finale ends; the driver leaves the crowd to thin and draws up at the gate about 15 minutes afterwards for the ride back to Kumköy.
Pickup: At Side Star Elegance the driver stops at the main entrance with a name board, by the reception doors rather than at the beach gate or the pool bar. Give the name the room is booked under, wait inside in the cool and step out when the WhatsApp message arrives.
A typical Land of Legends day from Side Star Elegance
- A slow breakfast at the Elegance Main Restaurant before messaging the driver
- Towels and swim bags into the boot at the main entrance by reception
- West along the coast past Serik to Kadriye, 40 km and 35 to 45 minutes
- The rides through the morning, then lunch inside the park
- The water zones in the heat of the afternoon, ticket in hand
- Dinner and the evening programme on Shopping Avenue, then the car about 15 minutes after the finale
Practical tips
- Book the car on WhatsApp the night before and give the name the room is booked under, so the driver can ask for you at the entrance.
- Buy the park ticket separately for the rides and the water zones; the transfer fare covers the car and nothing inside the gates.
- Check the park's official schedule for show days and times before fixing your return, as the evening programme changes through the season.
- Send the ages of the children with the booking, and the free seats or boosters are in place before the car turns into the hotel drive.
- Bring euros, dollars or lira in cash for the end of the ride, because the car has no card machine and nothing is taken up front.

Frequently asked questions
How much is a taxi from Side Star Elegance to The Land of Legends?
From €45 in a Mercedes Vito, and from €55 in the larger minivan. The price covers the whole vehicle rather than each passenger, the return to Kumköy is quoted at the same figure, and you pay the driver in cash in euros, dollars or lira, with nothing on a meter and no supplement for a late finish.
How far is The Land of Legends from Side Star Elegance?
The run measures 40 km and takes 35 to 45 minutes, door to gate. The car leaves Kumköy for the coastal road and heads west past Serik before turning off at Kadriye. Holiday traffic on that stretch can add a few minutes in August, which is another reason the fare is agreed before you set off rather than at the end.
Are child seats available from Kumköy?
Yes, at no charge. Infant carriers, child seats and booster cushions are fitted before the car arrives at the hotel entrance, and all we need are the ages when you book on WhatsApp. There is still room in the Vito for a pushchair and a cool bag alongside them.
Is admission needed for an evening on Shopping Avenue?
No. Shopping Avenue at the front of the park is generally free to enter, so guests who have spent the day on the Kumköy sand can come across for dinner and the evening programme without buying admission. A ticket is needed only for the rides and the water zones inside the gates.
Does the car wait until the evening programme ends?
Yes, and there is no charge for it and no cut-off hour, because we run 24/7. You do not need to name a return time in advance: message us on WhatsApp once the finale ends and the car pulls in about 15 minutes later, once the crowd at the gate has thinned, for the 35 to 45 minute run back to Side Star Elegance.
