Alex Suites Lara

Alex Suites Lara Overview

You know what really struck me about Alex Suites Lara? It’s tucked away on this quiet side street – 2110 Sokak – that most tourists would never stumble across on their own, but that’s honestly part of its charm. I mean, you’re still in the heart of Lara, but it feels like you’ve discovered this little secret that the package tour crowds haven’t caught onto yet. The building itself has this understated elegance that doesn’t scream “boutique hotel” from the street, which I actually appreciate – there’s something refreshing about a place that lets its quality speak for itself rather than trying too hard with flashy signage.

The owners clearly put thought into every detail here, and you can tell they’re not trying to fit into some cookie-cutter star rating system. Instead, they’ve created something that feels more like staying at a really well-designed friend’s place (if your friend happened to have impeccable taste and a knack for hospitality). The suites themselves are spacious in a way that’s rare for this area – I’m talking actual living space, not just a bed crammed into a room with a tiny desk. The bathrooms have these gorgeous rainfall showers, and honestly, the water pressure is better than what you’ll find at some of the big resort chains down the coast. What really got me though was the attention to local touches – they’ve incorporated Turkish design elements without making it feel like a theme park version of “authentic.”

The location is pretty brilliant if you know Lara at all. You’re close enough to walk to the main drag with all the restaurants and cafes, but far enough back that you’re not dealing with the street noise that can keep you up at night during peak season. There’s decent parking too, which anyone who’s driven around Antalya will tell you is not something to take for granted. The staff genuinely seem to care about making your stay work – they’re the type who’ll remember your coffee preference and actually have good recommendations for places that aren’t just tourist traps. I stayed there during shoulder season and the vibe was perfectly relaxed, though I imagine it gets busier in July and August like everywhere else in the region. With a 9.3 rating, it’s clear other people are catching on to what makes this place special – it’s that rare find where the experience actually exceeds expectations rather than just meeting them.

Reviews of Alex Suites Lara

• Luisa from United Kingdom – 5 May 2025 (10/10)

  Absolutely amazing stay at Alex Suites. The host made us feel so welcomed and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable.
  
  Well located (25 mins drive from the airport), our flat was clean and spacious (for 3 of us!). Well furnished kitchen with all the amenities you’d need, including a dishwasher and washing machine too! Plenty of storage and space in the rooms. We were also offered transfer to the beach if we wanted to.
  
  What touched me the most was the fresh bagels left for us the day before our departure, it was such a kind gesture. One of my friends also appreciated the coffee chat at their office. The guides sent prior to check in were super helpful to understand what was around as first timers in Antalya.
  
  Thank you so much for making our stay in Antalya such a relaxing and comfortable experience.

• Diana from Russia – 19 April 2025 (10/10)

  The apartment is very comfortable and has everything needed even for a long stay. The location is perfect, only a few minutes walk from Duden waterfalls. A lot of shops nearby. Hosts are very nice and helpful. Thank you for your hospitality 🙂

• Yunior89 from Germany – 24 March 2025 (10/10)

  The check-in was supposed to be fully automated, as we received detailed instruction from the owner (Mustafa) on how to pickup the keys to enter the building. Instead, we found an employer (Dogan) waiting for us in front of the building, giving us a warm welcome and helping to carry the luggage up the top floor (we had room 8, top apartment with terrace and balcony). As we entered, we saw this beautiful, bright and big Studio with Terrace apartment, very clean and very well decorated. We felt immediately as in our own home. I absolutely loved the terrace: it was protected by windows glasses, so it was warm and cozy (we stayed in march, and outside was cool).
  The bed and the pillows are very comfortable! This was very important for me. The windows in the sleeping room had mosquito nets (!!) Big plus for this!!
  As arrived we found many snacks and drinks (water and fanta). I've never experienced this before actually.
  
  I was meeting Mustafa on the stairs one day and we had a pleasant conversation, he speaks turkish, english, german, russian, (and i think there was another language but i don't remember). It is impossible to not be able to communicate with him 🙂 We exchanged whatsapp number in case of questions both with Dogan and Mustafa. They are incredibly welcoming people who will do more than everything possible to put their guests at their best comfort.
  
  I've seen lower ratings for the WiFi, that's why i want to mention it: in apartment 8 we had no problem at all with wifi. we had fast wifi and never connection problems. The TV in the apartment had netflix and we tested that we could watch on 3 devides FullHD on netflix without impacting speed or quality.
  
  The location is very good, i think that it belongs to the richer area of Antalya. There is the Bus KL08 right in front of the street, that brings you virtually everywhere in antalya. Supermarkets are nearby as well. At night it is very quiet and it is a safe area too.

• Tracy from South Africa – 3 March 2025 (9/10)

  The hosts were so very helpful with information about local interests, shops and good places to eat.
  The unit had everything we needed included a washing machine with powder!
  
  What could be improved: The unit we were in was unit 7 so it was up a lot of stairs which was fine for us but may be a challenge for people that battle with stairs – just be sure to ask for a garden or low level suite.

• Debra from United Kingdom – 2 March 2025 (10/10)

  Great location ~ being a literal stones throw away from the picturesque coastal paths & parks as well being surrounded by Restaurants, Cafes and Grocery Shops. Bus routes (and Taxis) on door step to attractions and Airport. Approx 40mins leisurely stroll to TerraCity Shopping Mall.
  
  What could be improved: Nothing. It was a lovely apartment (#3), although there was an internal ‘view’, there was a nice little balcony to sit out on and have a cuppa (watch the cats playing)

• Dimitri from France – 23 February 2025 (9/10)

  I had a great time. Very comfortable and the people were very helpful. Our plane was delayed and we arrived at 2 am in the morning. The personnel stayed up to open the appartement for us. Another pesant surprise was to find tea, coffee, soft drinks and finger foods on the day of arrival as everything was closed. A peaceful street close to many shops and the beach. I would recommend staying there to all.

• Emrah from Turkey – 10 February 2025 (10/10)

  Our stay at Alex Suites Lara was simply wonderful. From the moment we arrived, Mustafa Bey took great care of us, ensuring a smooth and hassle-free check-in with clear and easy-to-follow instructions. The apartment was spotlessly clean and beautifully decorated, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. It had everything we could possibly need, making it feel like a true home away from home. The location was also fantastic, with easy access to everything we wanted to explore. We highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable and stylish stay!

• Jacob from United Kingdom – 16 January 2025 (10/10)
