Gloria Golf Club
Belek
Gloria Golf Club is one of Belek’s most complete golfing destinations, offering 45 holes across two championship courses and a shorter nine-hole layout. Designed by acclaimed French golf architect Michel Gayon, the courses sit among mature pine trees, natural vegetation and lakes, with the Taurus Mountains creating an impressive backdrop.
The Old Course opened in 1997 and is an 18-hole, par-72 layout measuring 6,529 metres from the back tees. Its tree-lined fairways, six lakes and strategically positioned hazards reward accurate driving and careful course management. Golfers who find the correct side of the fairway will have better angles into the greens, while wayward shots can leave difficult recoveries through the woodland.
Opened in 2005, the New Course is another 18-hole, par-72 challenge measuring 6,523 metres. Seven lakes feature across the layout, adding plenty of risk-and-reward decisions and placing extra importance on confident approach play. Its combination of pine-lined holes, water hazards and championship length provides a strong test for experienced golfers while remaining enjoyable from the forward tees.
The nine-hole, par-35 Verde Course offers a more relaxed option for beginners, mixed-handicap groups or players wanting an additional round. It can also be combined with nine holes from either championship course to form one of Gloria’s Select Course routings.
Gloria Golf Club is home to extensive practice facilities, including covered TrackMan range bays, grass teeing areas and dedicated putting, bunkering, pitching and chipping greens. Professional tuition is available for golfers looking to improve during their stay.
After golf, players can relax at the clubhouse or enjoy the beaches, restaurants and spa facilities found throughout Belek. The remarkably preserved Roman theatre at Aspendos is also close by, while Side and Antalya provide historic streets, ancient ruins, waterfront dining and plenty to explore on a day away from the course.

About The Area
Sarigerme is an exciting new choice for a golf holiday in Turkey, combining a long sandy beach, luxury all-inclusive resorts and remarkably easy access from the UK. This peaceful coastal village sits approximately 11 kilometres from Dalaman International Airport, allowing golfers to reach their hotel in around 15–20 minutes after landing.
The destination’s golfing appeal centres on The Dalaman Golf Club, which is scheduled to open on 30 August 2026. The new 18-hole, par-72 championship course will be the first golf venue in the region, creating an alternative to Turkey’s established golf resorts around Belek. Designed by Andrew Craven of International Design Group, the 6,750-yard layout moves through three distinctive environments: dunes, wetlands and mountain scenery.
Golfers can expect strategically positioned bunkers, water hazards and changing landscapes, along with a driving range, putting and chipping greens, rental equipment, golf buggies and an academy for different ability levels. A complimentary shuttle will connect the course with Hilton Dalaman Sarigerme Resort & Golf, making it especially convenient for guests staying at the resort.
Away from the course, Sarigerme is known for its broad beach, clear water and attractive natural surroundings. Watersports are widely available, while the compact village centre offers restaurants, cafés and small shops without the noise and crowds of a large resort town.
The wider Dalaman region also provides plenty to explore between rounds. Golfers can visit the harbour town of Göcek, take a boat trip around its sheltered bays or travel to Dalyan for the ancient ruins of Kaunos, riverside restaurants and nearby İztuzu Beach.
With a championship course, short airport transfer and high-quality beachfront accommodation, Sarigerme is set to become one of Turkey’s most interesting emerging golf destinations. It should particularly suit couples, groups and mixed golfing families who want to combine their rounds with an all-inclusive Mediterranean holiday.
