Journey overview: Antalya Airport to Payallar
The transfer from Antalya Airport (AYT) to Payallar covers a distance of 108 km along the main D400 coastal road. In standard traffic, the drive takes approximately 98 minutes. Your journey heads east from the airport, passing through Serik and Manavgat before continuing along the coast past Okurcalar and Avsallar to reach Payallar.
Journey times vary slightly depending on when you travel. Early morning and late evening transfers usually stick closely to the 98-minute mark. During peak summer afternoons, higher traffic volumes around key junctions near Manavgat and Konaklı can add 15 to 20 minutes to the total travel time.
What to expect in Payallar
Payallar is a relaxed coastal destination situated roughly 14 km west of central Alanya. The area is best known for its large beachfront resorts, quiet coastal stretches, and agricultural background. Just behind the hotel strip, you will see extensive greenhouses and banana plantations extending towards the Taurus Mountains.
Unlike the busier town centres along the Turkish Riviera, Payallar offers a slower pace focused on resort stays. It is a practical base for families and travellers looking to unwind by the sea, while remaining close enough to visit the historic harbour and castle in central Alanya for a day trip.
How our transfer service works
We own our vehicles and employ our drivers directly. Your booking is not passed to third-party brokers or split into shared shuttle runs. The vehicle is reserved exclusively for your group, providing a direct door-to-door connection from Antalya Airport to your hotel or private address in Payallar.
Your driver monitors your flight status in real time. If your flight is delayed, your pickup time is automatically adjusted so your driver is waiting for you when you step into the arrivals hall. They will hold a sign with your name clearly displayed.
Practical tips for arriving travellers
- Child seats: If you are travelling with toddlers or infants, request baby or booster seats when making your booking so they are properly fitted prior to your arrival.
- Terminal checks: Antalya Airport has two international terminals. Ensure you enter your flight number correctly when booking so your driver meets you at the correct terminal exit.
- Direct route: The 108 km route stays on wide, well-surfaced dual carriageways along the coast, providing a smooth ride throughout.
