When it comes to effortless travel combined with five-star beachfront living, Corendon Airlines and Corendon Playa Kemer are a match made in holiday heaven. Our recent four-day getaway was nothing short of perfection, from the moment we boarded our flight at Gatwick to the final sunset over the turquoise waters of Kemer. Everything was smooth, stylish, and perfectly thought out, a dream escape where luxury meets comfort in every detail.

But before we even left the UK, we needed to get to Gatwick Airport by car and decided to use a service offered by APH Park & Ride Gatwick. This turned out to be a seamless and stress-free start to our trip to Turkey.

Our recent experience with APH Gatwick Airport Meet & Greet Parking was truly excellent, offering the perfect start and finish to our trip. The booking process was straightforward, and everything was communicated from the outset.

When we arrived at Gatwick, we simply drove straight to the terminal, where a professional and friendly Meet and Greet operator was ready and waiting. Handing over our keys was quick and effortless, and we walked straight into the terminal with no delays, no need to find a parking space or catch a shuttle.

On our return, the process was just as smooth. After collecting our luggage, our car was waiting for us right outside the terminal, warm and ready for the journey home. It was incredibly convenient and saved us time and hassle after a long flight.

This was a service we will endeavour to use every time we travel by car to the airport!

Flying with Corendon Airlines

Our journey began with Corendon Airlines, and I must say, it set the tone for the entire trip. The flight from London Gatwick was on time, smooth, and perfectly comfortable. Boarding was efficient, the cabin was clean and modern, and the staff were attentive without being overbearing.

Luxury Transfer and a Warm Welcome

Upon landing, our holiday continued in effortless style with a luxury transfer vehicle arranged by Corendon Playa Kemer. The car was spotless, comfortable, and equipped with cold water and a friendly driver who whisked us through the scenic coastal roads straight to the resort. There’s something incredibly calming about stepping off a flight and knowing everything has already been arranged with ease, no stress, no waiting, just a smooth transfer.

When it was time to head home, the return transfer was equally smooth, once again highlighting the resort’s commitment to making travel as comfortable as the stay itself.

Chic Comfort: Our Ground Floor Room

At Corendon Playa Kemer, we stayed in a ground-floor room which, while compact, and very well designed. Every inch of the space had been used thoughtfully, and it never once felt cramped. There was ample storage, clever lighting, and a sleek modern bathroom stocked with quality toiletries. The outdoor terrace was a true highlight, featuring a shaded spot perfect for sipping coffee in the mornings or enjoying a glass of wine in the evening. It felt like an extension of the room, giving us that lovely indoor-outdoor feel that works so well in this sunny part of the world.

World-Class Wellness: Gym and Spa

One of the most impressive aspects of the resort was its state-of-the-art gym and spa facilities. The gym was bright, airy, and kitted out with top-notch equipment, ideal for those who like to stay active even while on holiday. There was plenty of space to work out without feeling crowded, and everything was kept in pristine condition.

The spa, on the other hand, was pure indulgence. With its tranquil atmosphere, soothing lighting, and professional treatments, it offered the perfect escape from the sun and a haven for total relaxation. I treated myself to a massage, which left me feeling refreshed and recharged for the days ahead.

Culinary Delights: Bone Fides Restaurant

Dining at Bone Fides, the resort’s signature restaurant, was a true highlight of our stay. The menu was varied and inventive, combining Mediterranean classics with international flair, all presented artistically. Each meal was a feast,  from fresh seafood and delicious salads to perfectly grilled meats and fabulous desserts. The atmosphere was relaxed, with friendly service that made us feel at home.

The staff were passionate about what they do, offering recommendations with a smile and always checking in to make sure everything was perfect. This was our favourite evening, wonderful dishes all delivered with perfect timing, and accompanied with lovely wine to perfectly compliment each dish.

Late Night Indulgences: The Patisserie

No visit to Corendon Playa Kemer would be complete without a few late-night visits to the resort’s patisserie. It’s a charming little spot, open late enough to satisfy any sweet tooth cravings, and trust me, you’ll have them. The ice cream was rich and creamy, the pastries freshly baked and beautifully presented, and the coffee strong and aromatic. It became our go-to after-dinner ritual, whether for a quiet cappuccino or one last bite of something sweet before bed. I highly recommend the caramel and vanilla icecream in a cone!

Pool, Beach and Jetty Bliss

The pool and beach areas at Corendon Playa Kemer are pristine. Everything was spotlessly maintained, from the sparkling water to the neatly arranged loungers and parasols. The beach provided views of the crystal-clear water and mountains in the distance.

Perhaps the most memorable part of our stay was spending our days on the private jetty in a luxurious cabaña. The jetty area took our beach experience to another level. This exclusive space featured sumptuous seating, a mini fridge stocked with cold drinks, and direct access to the turquoise sea. It was pure heaven. It was a delight to simply stretch out, relax, and take it all in. We were fully indulged with a fruit platter, nuts, crisps and champagne, as well as a great selection of pastas and salads from the beach menu.

We were able to truly unwind, sunbathe in comfort, and cool off with an easy dip in the sea whenever we pleased.

Flawless Service and Perfect Weather

The weather during our entire stay was flawless, sun-drenched days with gentle sea breezes and balmy evenings under the stars. But what stood out was the staff. Every member of the Corendon Playa Kemer team was professional, welcoming, and genuinely eager to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. From the reception team to the restaurant servers and housekeeping staff, everyone went the extra mile to ensure we felt special.

A Memorable Getaway Worth Repeating

Our time with Corendon Airlines and Corendon Playa Kemer exceeded all expectations. It was a rare blend of seamless travel, luxury accommodation, exquisite dining, and impeccable service, all set against the backdrop of one of the most beautiful coastal destinations we’ve ever visited.

If you’re looking for an escape that delivers both style and substance, look no further. Whether it’s a short break or an extended holiday, this combination is hard to beat. We returned home relaxed, sun-kissed, and already dreaming of our next trip back.
