Side

Side town is located to the east of Antalya about 65kms and about 1 hours drive by car.
The resort area itself is very spread out and in length is probably 15kms long. I found the resort itself a little untidy and quite spread out with the hotels just seemed to be put anywhere although there are hotels to suit most budgets.
The old town of Side (which is in the middle of the resort area) on the other hand is very different with resturants, shops and nice views. Also here are a few ruins and the harbour
On both sides of the old town are reasonable beaches which don't get too crowded

Pros and Cons

Pros:Good beaches, lovely old town.
Cons:Main resort untidy
In a nutshell:Lots of things to see and do
