Belek has many resort courses, and Carya is the one built to look like the heathland around London. Heather edges the bunkers, umbrella pines line the fairways and the ground rolls over old sand hills. It hosted the Turkish Airlines Open on the European Tour from 2016 to 2018. It was also the first course in Europe with floodlights on all 18 holes, so in summer the playing day can stretch to almost 18 hours. That makes it easy to fit golf around a family beach holiday.
Carya Golf Club green fees and tee times.
Book tee times through the club’s reservation office or the request form on its website. Many Belek hotels and tour operators also sell Carya rounds in packages. You must have a handicap certificate, with a limit of 36 for both men and women. You can pay for nine or 18 holes, and floodlit rounds can cost more in some seasons. Guests at the Regnum Carya hotel next door get a discount on the rack rate. Their all-inclusive plan also covers food and drink at the clubhouse, apart from the buggy bars and the halfway house. Buggies cost €60 for 18 holes, or €70 if you reserve one in advance, and a reserved buggy can’t be cancelled on the day. Hire buggies, trolleys and clubs at the golf reception.

The round, in perspective.
Peter Thomson’s firm, Thomson Perrett & Lobb, designed Carya, and the course opened in 2008 on 104 hectares of pine forest. Its models were Wentworth, Sunningdale, Walton Heath and Swinley Forest, so it is closer in spirit to Berkshire and Surrey than to the Mediterranean. Heather edges the bunkers, and the greens average about 600 square metres and have plenty of slope. Every hole has a name. The short, spectacular 7th is called Sirens, the 10th, Walk the Plank, is a narrow par five with water along its length, and the 15th is a reachable par five called Greed. The course is par 72. From the yellow tees it is about 6,300 yards.
Make the trip work.
Carya treats spring and autumn as high season and summer and winter as low season, with prices rising and falling gradually in between. Check the maintenance calendar: in 2026 the course closed from 15 to 30 September for overseeding, and from 1 to 10 October buggies were kept to the paths. There were also hollow-tining weeks in July and August. Floodlit start times change through the year, from about 14:15 in December to 16:30 in midsummer. Players under 16 get half price off the rack rate.
Antalya Airport is about 35 kilometres west, roughly 35 to 40 minutes by road along the coast highway. Most hotels and tour operators include transfers. The club is in the Kadriye district of Belek, close to the beach and next to the National Golf Club.
The Regnum Carya hotel stands next to the course. It is an all-inclusive resort with a beach, and its guests get the discounted green fees. Regnum The Crown, in the same group, is another choice with the same golf benefits. Belek has dozens of other large all-inclusive hotels along the beach, many of them a few minutes from Carya by shuttle. Antalya’s old town, Kaleiçi, about 45 minutes away, has small boutique hotels.
Make a trip of it.
Belek has more than a dozen courses within a short drive. The National Golf Club is next door and shares Carya’s rate card; it hosted the 2026 Turkish Airlines Open. The Montgomerie Maxx Royal, Cornelia’s Faldo Course and Gloria are all within about 15 minutes. Off the course, the Roman theatre at Aspendos is around 20 minutes away and still stages summer performances. The ancient city of Perge is near the airport, and Side has a harbour and temple ruins.
Find your season.
Spring and October to November are the peak golf months, with warm days and lower humidity. July and August are very hot, which is why green fees drop and the floodlit evening rounds are busy. Winter is mild, and rack rates fall from December to early February.
Yes. Carya is open to visitors whether or not they stay at the Regnum Carya. Book through the club’s reservations office or a Belek tour operator. Regnum guests pay a discounted rate.
How much are Carya green fees?
The 2026 rack rate for 18 holes was €185 in spring and late September, €120 in June and in winter, and €105 in July and August. Regnum guests pay €85 to €145. Nine-hole rounds are also sold.
Can you play golf at night at Carya?
Yes. All 18 holes are floodlit, and Carya was the first course in Europe to offer this. Floodlit rounds start at times that vary with the season, from mid-afternoon in winter to 16:30 from May to August, and they can cost more in some seasons.
What handicap do you need to play Carya?
You need a handicap certificate, and the limit is 36 for men and for women. The club may ask to see it at check-in, so carry your card or app record.
