The route: Airport to Regnum Carya
Exit Terminal 2, D400 east for 43 km. The road is a dual carriageway for the full distance. Exit at the Belek junction; the Belek Tourism Zone security barrier is 3 km from the exit. Your driver handles the zone gate. Regnum Carya is signposted within the zone.
Journey time: 45 minutes free-flow. Peak July–August afternoons (13:00–19:00): allow up to 70 minutes. Night arrivals: consistently 45 minutes.
Arrival at Regnum Carya gate
Regnum Carya has a main gated entrance with security. Your driver stops; provide your surname and hotel reservation reference. The guard checks the guest list and raises the barrier. Keep your booking confirmation accessible on your phone.
Drop-off is at the main hotel lobby. Porters meet the vehicle and handle luggage to reception. Golf bags are taken to the Carya Golf Club bag room on request — inform the porter on arrival.
The hotel operates 24-hour reception. Late check-ins are processed efficiently — the night team has the full guest list.
Carya Golf Club access on arrival
The Carya Golf Club is within the Regnum Carya resort grounds, adjacent to the hotel. After check-in, the golf reception (open from 07:00) handles bag storage, course registration, and tee time confirmation.
If you arrive at night and have an early tee time the following morning, confirm with the hotel in advance that golf bags will be delivered to the bag room before your tee time. Most resorts accommodate this — the night porter handles the bag transfer.
Carya Golf Club contact through the hotel concierge. Day visitors to Carya Golf Club who are not hotel guests can book tee times independently, but transfer arrangements are the same as for hotel guests.
Golf bags: which vehicle
- Sedan: two golf travel bags (hard or soft case, up to 135 cm) alongside two regular suitcases in the 450L boot
- Minivan: four bags flat in the cargo bay (rear bench folded)
- Minibus: underfloor cargo bay accommodates six to eight bags
For groups of 4 players with four sets of clubs, a minivan is the minimum. Declare bag count and case type (hard/soft) at booking.
No extra charge for golf bags in any vehicle — they are treated as standard oversized luggage.
Night and early morning transfers
Night surcharge +30% applies to all pickups starting between 22:00 and 06:00. Regnum Carya's main gate operates 24 hours — security staff are always present.
Sedan night rate: €104. Minivan night rate: €137.
Worked example: a sedan daytime fare of €80 × 1.30 = €104 for a 23:30 arrival.
Many golf package flights arrive after 22:00 — this is a standard arrival slot for German and British golf tour charters from Frankfurt, Manchester, and Birmingham. The D400 is noticeably quieter at night, and the drive is typically 45 minutes without daytime traffic. The Belek Tourism Zone gate is staffed overnight and the guard has the hotel's guest list.
Flight tracking is active regardless of arrival time. The driver monitors your flight in real time and adjusts pickup timing accordingly — there is no penalty if your flight is delayed. Book the night transfer in advance: the driver pool is smaller between 00:00 and 05:00, and last-minute requests cannot always be fulfilled.
For very early morning departures (pre-05:00): the hotel can arrange express checkout the evening before. Allow the standard journey time plus 3 hours before international flight departure. A 04:00 pickup for a 07:30 flight is a common Belek pattern — confirm this at booking rather than leaving it to the morning.
Children and families
Free child seats are available at no charge: infant seat (0–13 kg), toddler seat (9–18 kg), and booster seat (15–36 kg). Specify the child's approximate age and weight at booking — this lets the driver install the correct seat before arriving at the airport. Do not leave the seat request until arrival; the driver needs to know in advance.
The transfer is 45 minutes in normal conditions — a manageable journey even for young children. In July and August, allow up to 70 minutes in afternoon traffic. For journeys over 45 minutes with infants or toddlers, bring a small snack and water bottle from the terminal. The D400 passes several fuel stations with clean toilets; the driver can stop if needed — just ask.
Regnum Carya attracts a significant family segment alongside its golf clientele. The resort's Carya Kids Club accepts children from age 4. Many families travelling to Regnum Carya are accompanying golf-playing partners — one adult golfs while the other manages children at the resort. The transfer accommodates mixed-use: a minivan comfortably fits four golfers, a child, and a buggy alongside four golf bags.
If you are travelling with a pushchair or stroller, declare it at booking. A standard folding pushchair fits in any vehicle without affecting passenger or bag capacity. For a large non-folding pram, a minivan or minibus is recommended. Wheelchair-accessible vehicles are available on request — contact us at booking.
Return transfer to airport
Return trip price: sedan €80, minivan €105. The driver collects you from the main hotel lobby. Journey time is 45 minutes in normal conditions — allow 3 hours before international departure to cover check-in, security, and passport control.
Worked example: a 10:00 Saturday departure requires a 06:45 pickup — 45 minutes journey plus a 90-minute airport buffer. Saturday morning is the peak departure slot for Belek golf packages; the D400 checkout traffic runs heaviest between 09:00 and 11:00 on Saturdays, so early pickups avoid the congestion entirely.
Sunday is the second-busiest departure day for Belek golf packages (most packages run Saturday to Saturday or Sunday to Sunday). Sunday afternoon D400 traffic can add 15–20 minutes to the return journey if your flight departs between 13:00 and 17:00. Book the return at the same time as your arrival transfer — availability on peak Sundays fills quickly. Early departure flights (06:00–08:00) require a pre-dawn pickup, which attracts the night surcharge of +30%.
The hotel front desk will confirm your departure time and can call the transfer company on your behalf if needed. However, booking directly through AntalyaTransfers.co ensures the driver has your flight details and can track any terminal changes.
Comparison with alternatives
| Option | Price | Journey time | Waiting time | Drop-off type | Night surcharge | Risk of overcharging |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Private transfer | €80 fixed | 45 min | 60 min free flight tracking | Door-to-door resort gate | +30% (€104) | None — fixed at booking |
| Airport metered taxi | €120–160 | 45–55 min | None — meter runs | Kerb; driver may not know gate | High — no official surcharge | Documented tourist overcharging |
| Hotel concierge transfer | €90–130/person | Similar | Charged per hour | Hotel lobby | Hotel rate | Low but expensive |
| Tour operator bus | Package-included | Variable — shared stops | None — fixed departure | Shared resort drop-off | No surcharge | None |
A licensed yellow metered taxi from the official airport rank is generally safe. The documented risk is from unlicensed touts who approach passengers inside the terminal before the official exit. For families with golf bags, the fixed-price private transfer is simpler: the driver knows the Belek Zone gate procedure and has the correct vehicle for your bag count.
Seasonal guide and booking tips
October and November — peak Belek golf season. Cooler temperatures (18–24°C), no summer humidity, and softer fairways make October and November the preferred months for serious golfers. Regnum Carya sees its highest occupancy rates during this period. The D400 traffic is light in autumn, and journey times are consistently 45 minutes. Book the transfer at least 48 hours in advance during peak golf weekends — availability fills quickly.
April and May — shoulder season. Conditions are warm but not hot (22–28°C). This is the second most popular golf window. Transfer availability is good; same-day booking is usually possible, but advance booking is recommended for Saturday arrivals.
July and August — summer peak. Families with children dominate July and August. Daytime temperatures reach 38–40°C, which limits the golf clientele to early-morning rounds. Transfer times increase: afternoon journeys (13:00–19:00) on the D400 can take up to 70 minutes due to resort check-out and check-in traffic overlapping. Saturday morning check-out traffic peaks on the D400 between 09:00 and 11:00 — arrivals in this window should add 15–20 minutes to journey estimates. Night arrivals (22:00+) remain consistently 45 minutes.
December to March — low season. Regnum Carya closes for the winter period (typically December to mid-March). Confirm the hotel is open before booking a winter transfer. The D400 is clear and transfers run on time.
Booking tip for golf groups: Golf groups arriving on the same charter often have staggered bag claim. If your group has more than 8 players, confirm vehicle configuration at booking rather than on arrival. A minibus plus a sedan, or two minivans, may be more practical than a single vehicle for large groups.
Languages and communication
All AntalyaTransfers.co drivers speak basic English — sufficient for transfer logistics (your name, hotel name, gate procedure, luggage count). For more complex conversations, most drivers carry a translation app on their phone and are happy to use it.
Russian-speaking drivers are available on request and are common on the Belek route — Russia is one of the largest source markets for Belek golf packages. Request a Russian-speaking driver at booking.
German-speaking drivers are available on request. German golfers make up a large share of Belek traffic (TUI, JAHN, and Thomas Cook historically operate Belek charters). Note this at booking and we will match where possible.
WhatsApp is the primary fallback channel. If you land and cannot immediately locate your driver — which can happen if the arrival hall is busy — send a WhatsApp message to the number provided in your booking confirmation. Response is within 2 minutes. Do not leave the arrivals hall and go outside to the taxi rank before contacting us.
If you are delayed at the Belek zone gate: The gate guard verifies guests against the hotel list. If your reservation is not yet in the system (this can happen with same-day bookings or travel agent errors), ask the guard to call the hotel reception directly. The driver can wait outside the barrier while the issue is resolved — this typically takes 3–5 minutes.
Regnum Carya: resort features and Carya Golf Club details
Carya Golf Club: The 18-hole championship course designed by Kyle Phillips is consistently ranked in Turkey's top three. The layout runs through mature pine forest and features strategically placed water hazards on seven holes. Total yardage from championship tees: 6,830 yards, par 72. The course was designed to European Tour specification and hosted the European Challenge Tour in 2014.
Golf academy: The Carya Golf Academy has PGA-certified instructors and a full practice facility including a 9-hole short course, two grass driving ranges, and a dedicated chipping and bunker area. Video analysis sessions are available in English, German, and Russian.
Hotel: 240 rooms and suites — intentionally smaller than the mega-resorts in Belek. The boutique scale means better staff-to-guest ratios and more personalised service. Most rooms face the golf course or the hotel's private pine forest.
Spa: 2,500 m² spa with hammam, aqua circuit, and a full treatment menu. The spa uses Elemis and Kerstin Florian products — notable in a resort market where spa quality varies widely.
Restaurants: 5 restaurants and bars. The main restaurant operates an open kitchen for the dinner buffet; the à la carte Terrace Restaurant overlooks the 18th green.
Beach: A shuttle operates between the hotel and the private beach, 2 km south of the resort. The beach is shared with Calista Luxury Resort — both properties have sun lounger sections.
The Belek zone: transfers between resorts
Regnum Carya sits in the heart of the Belek Tourism Zone, within 3–4 km of all other major resorts. If you are playing courses at multiple resorts during your stay, inter-resort transfers are practical:

- Regnum Carya to Gloria Golf Resort: 2 km — 5 minutes
- Regnum Carya to Rixos Premium Belek (Antalya Golf Club): 4 km — 10 minutes
AntalyaTransfers.co can arrange inter-resort day transfers on request. These are priced as short-route transfers — contact via WhatsApp to confirm.

After check-in, the bag room is a short walk and golf reception opens at 07:00.
