The C’ESPACE Spa is an oasis of tranquillity, wellness and indulgence. There’s an inside/outdoor swimming pool and a Turkish hammam (which should come as no surprise) alongside saunas, a shock pool and vitamin bar. Treatments range from classic massages inspired by Asian and European practices, peels and hammam rituals, ayurvedic therapies and a unique foam massage.

Pools are plentiful at Cullinan Belek – they’re found indoors and outdoors (in one case both in and out), there’s a kids’ pool, a pool by the beach, swim-up pools and private pools attached to the villas if you fancy the upgrade. The Aquapark is where kids and thrill-seeking grown-ups can speed down slides (four for younger guests and nine for adults) and youngsters can splash around in the shallows.

Cullinan Belek was made for sun-soaked family holidays and there’s plenty to fill your days. Days together can be spent at the Aquapark, on the beach or by one of the resort’s many pools. Upupa is an extensive club for children between four and 12 years old (with rooms for different age groups) that’s open from 10am until late and is supervised by a trained team of child carers. There’s a restaurant on site as well as an outdoor activity area, amphitheatre for kids’ shows, and a cinema hall; there are also a number of guided workshops so they can learn a skill or two while having all that fun. There’s a separate area for teenagers with a Playstation room, cinema screen soft drink and mocktail bar and age-related activities.

Accommodation comes in various guises: as the name suggests, the Family Rooms which are made up of a master bedroom with a king-sized bed and a living room with a couple of sofa beds. The villas give you more space and a few luxe added extras such as butler service, a private pool and a Playstation in your villa and a reserved cabana on the beach or pier during the summer season. You can also dine at the à la carte restaurants on a complimentary basis.

The Cullinan’s golf course is set between the sea and the river and has the Taurus mountains as a distant backdrop. There are 36 holes to make your way around, and there are even night lights so you can try playing golf after dark.
