Cornelia Deluxe Resort

At first glance, Cornelia Deluxe Resort in Belek looks like a stylish Caribbean hotel with its unique architecture and lush surrounding gardens. Although the complex is very definitely in Turkey, that doesn’t stop it from having the kind of chilled out vibe Jamaica would be proud of. Interiors at the hotel are sleekly designed and there are bright splashes of colour that make the rooms cheerful and sunny, even on a (very rare) cloudy day. Each one has satellite TV, air conditioning and a private balcony or terrace with garden or sea views.

The Cornelia Deluxe Resort has a grand total of five swimming pools, one with water slides and one that is for adults only, all of which are surrounded by spacious sun terraces with plenty of sun loungers. There are three tennis courts at the Cornelia, as well as facilities for volleyball, table tennis and ten pin bowling. There is also a hairdressing salon, health centre and Hammam for guests who want to be seriously pampered. If you are staying at the hotel, you will have a choice of the hotel’s buffet restaurant and five à la carte restaurants, catering for a broad range of tastes, including Mediterranean, French and Far Eastern. In the evening there is live music for guests, as well as live shows, cinema nights and themed evenings.
