The Diamond of the Turkish Riviera
Inspired by the most magnificent diamond ever discovered, Cullinan Belek shines in the heart of the Mediterranean — defining luxury through comfort, extraordinary gastronomy and world-class entertainment. It's a bold claim, but spend even a day here and you'll understand exactly why.
This luxurious 5-star resort combines chic design with boho-inspired touches, set against the stunning backdrop of the Mediterranean's turquoise waters. Whether you're a family looking for endless activities, a couple seeking indulgence, or a golfer chasing fairways in the sun, Cullinan Belek has been designed to exceed every expectation.
At GoToBeach, we think this is one of the finest hotels in Turkey right now — and here's why.
Location: Belek's Best Address
Cullinan Belek stretches luxuriously by the Mediterranean Sea, in the heart of a 36-hole links golf course, where deep greens and brilliant blues rival one another's intensity. The resort sits in the Belek Golf Area, just a four-minute drive from National Golf Club and five minutes from Antalya Golf Club. Antalya Airport is a straightforward 30-minute transfer away — so you're on a sunlounger before you know it.
The Beach & Pools
The hotel has its very own 800-metre-long private beach dotted with palm trees and lounge beds — the perfect environment for relaxing in the sunshine. Unlike many resorts where the beach involves a bus ride, Cullinan Belek is located directly by the Mediterranean Sea with a private beach within walking distance of the property.
Back at the resort, the property features over 100 swim-up rooms and eight pools, while an aqua park provides additional fun for the whole family. One particularly impressive detail: Cullinan has the most heated pools in the region, meaning guests can enjoy the pools, aqua park and swim-up rooms even during the cooler months. Dining: Fine Restaurants, Endless Choice
The resort features eleven restaurants, numerous bars and snack outlets — and the quality genuinely rivals what you'd find in a standalone fine dining setting. Dining options include an eclectic international buffet, a 24/7 bistro, several snack bars and à la carte restaurants specialising in everything from traditional Turkish and Greek cuisine to Italian and Indian classics. More than 10 bars are dotted around the resort, along with a patisserie, a chocolatier and a coffee house.
One Hello! Magazine reviewer described the food as being like eating out in the finest London restaurants every single evening — and standout spots include Nori, a Japanese grill, the rooftop Italian Pascarella, and the Hasir Turkish restaurant.
Golf: A World-Class Links Experience
Cullinan Belek is the only resort in Turkey that boasts a river on one side and an epic sea view on the other — making its golf course one of the most visually stunning places to play in the entire Mediterranean. The 36-hole Cullinan Links Golf Club is right on the doorstep, and guests are entitled to discounted rates at the golf range.
For those who want to explore further, Carya Golf Club is 7 miles away and Montgomerie Golf Course is 10 miles from the resort— so serious golfers will never run out of courses to conquer.
Spa & Wellness
The spa facilities at Cullinan Belek are among the best on offer in Belek and Antalya , featuring a full-service spa with massages, body treatments and facials, a Turkish hammam, a Jacuzzi, fitness centre and steam room. A Turkish steam bath and wellness facility are available on-site, making it easy to balance active days with proper rest and recovery.
Family Facilities: A Kids' Paradise
Travelling with children? Cullinan Belek is an outstanding choice. The Upupa Kids' Club hosts all kinds of activities for children of all ages, ranging from painting classes and DJ workshops to cinema nights and mini discos. The club offers different programmes for children aged 2 to 16, and multiple guests have singled it out as one of the key reasons they return year after year.
Babysitting services can also be arranged for parents who'd like an evening to themselves — a genuinely appreciated touch at a resort of this calibre.
Rooms & Suites
Cullinan Belek offers meticulously designed rooms and villas that cater to different tastes and embrace the fascinating panorama of the Mediterranean Sea. Options range from superior rooms and swim-up suites to spacious family rooms and private villas. A WhatsApp concierge service is hugely popular with guests — one of those small but meaningful details that sets the Cullinan apart from other five-star properties.
What Guests Say
The consensus is clear. Guests who have stayed twice describe the Cullinan as so amazingly good they had to return — with pools, grounds and overall facilities of the highest standard. One TripAdvisor reviewer ranked it at the top of several all-inclusive hotels in Turkey visited over four years, praising consistently high standards across every area of the resort.
Is Cullinan Belek Worth It?
In short: absolutely. This is a resort that genuinely delivers on its luxury promise across every category — food, service, beach, pools, golf and family facilities. It's not the cheapest option in Belek, but for what you receive, the value is exceptional.
Perfect for:
- Families wanting top-tier kids' facilities and a safe, spacious resort
- Golfers seeking a links course with sea and river views
- Couples after a high-end all-inclusive escape with spa and fine dining
- Anyone who simply refuses to compromise on quality
