How to ensure you get a hotel room in Turkey with a sea view
If you want to enjoy the benefits of an ocean vista during your holiday, you might want to try some of these tips to get a hotel room with a sea view:
- Try to book early:
Sea view rooms are in high demand, particularly in peak season, so we recommend booking early to ensure you get the type of room you want at your preferred hotel in Türkiye. By booking early, you may also benefit from early bird discounts or special offers for advanced bookings. - Remember to be flexible:
If a particular resort is fully booked, do not despair! The Turkish Riviera stretches for more than 620 miles (1,000 km) along the Aegean and Mediterranean Seas so there are plenty of excellent hotels and resorts to choose from. We’re sure you’ll find a hotel with stunning azure sea vistas you will adore – after all, the area is also known as the Turquoise Coast!
- Check reviews and photos:
Before you book a hotel room with a sea view, it’s always a good idea to check the reviews and photos from previous guests. Not only will you get an idea of what kind of sea view to expect, you’ll also be able to read other travellers’ tips and recommendations for your Turkish holiday. - Choose a TUI BLUE resort:
We make it easy to book a sea view room at our hotels in Türkiye. Our room and suite descriptions clearly state if you will enjoy a full or partial ocean view or if the accommodation looks out onto the countryside. And with TUI BLUE’s “Select Your Room” service, you can use the interactive map to browse and choose the room you prefer at selected hotels.
Our choice of hotels in Türkiye with amazing sea views
To help you find the perfect place to stay for your holiday, we have selected some of the best hotels in Turkey. All offer awe-inspiring sea views from their rooms, restaurants and terraces.
Near the popular resort of Marmaris, the all-inclusive TUI BLUE Grand Azur is situated next to a long, sandy beach. The balcony rooms not only overlook the sea but also the mountains that surround the Bay of Marmaris. And the hotel is a great base to explore the Datça Peninsula and its many picturesque villages, beautiful beaches and charming cafés and restaurants.
In a prime beach location, the adults-only TUI BLUE Belek offers a range of water sports for active holidaymakers. So, as well as enjoying the sea view, you can enjoy being on the water too. Why not embark on a sunset boat tour, ride the waves on a jet ski, or parasail over the beautiful Anatolian coastline?
Just a few miles down the Turkish Riviera coast from the TUI BLUE Belek, the TUI BLUE Side is another adults-only hotel that offers rooms with impressive sea views. The miles-long beach in front of the hotel overlooks the Gulf of Antalya, where you can sunbathe, swim or just stroll along the seashore.
Is there anything better than a room with a terrace or balcony offering a sea view? We think there might be. At the TUI BLUE Sensatori Akra Sorgun hotel in the province of Side-Sorgun, you can reserve a swim-up double room with direct access to the pool right on your doorstep. What could be more luxurious than that? And with certain rooms, you’ll still be able to enjoy the hotel’s amazing ocean view too!
Travellers who like a little hillside with their sea view, will feel right at home at TUI BLUE Seno. The adult-only hotel is located on a hill surrounded by a pine forest and overlooking a spectacular bay. A sandy beach and five swimming pools make the all-inclusive hotel a perfect spot for water lovers as well as holidayers who like a greener view.

FAQ sea view rooms
Who is a sea-view hotel in Türkiye best for?
A sea-view hotel in Türkiye is a great fit if the view is a big part of the holiday for you. It’s especially appealing for couples who want a more romantic feel, but it also works well for families who like the idea of waking up near the beach and making the most of the balcony or terrace as part of the stay.
How do you make sure you really get a sea-view room in Türkiye?
If a sea view matters to you, it’s worth booking early because these rooms are usually in high demand, especially in peak season. It also helps to choose a hotel where the room descriptions clearly show whether you’re booking a full sea view, partial sea view or another room type. Checking guest photos and reviews before you book can also give you a more realistic idea of what the view is actually like.
Is Select Your Room worth it at a sea-view hotel?
Yes. Just because you’ve booked a sea-view room doesn’t automatically mean you’ve got the best sea view in that category. A higher floor will often give you a better panoramic view than a room further down. With Select Your Room, you choose the exact room yourself, so you can make sure the sea view matches what you want. On the hotel map shown during the booking step, you can see which rooms in your category are on which floor, which makes it much easier to pick the best option for your stay.
