The hotel
Golf, sea and a spa in Belek.
Cornelia Diamond opened in 2008 on the Belek coast east of Antalya, built around golf from the start. The Cornelia Golf Club next door has 27 holes laid out by Sir Nick Faldo, whose name it carries, and a golf academy. When the resort opened, it had 575 rooms and eight pools, and guests could walk or take a buggy to the first tee.
The rest of the resort faces the sea. A sandy beach of 250 metres leads to a pier with its own bar, and the Crassula Spa covers 5,000 square metres, with an indoor pool of 311 square metres and Ayurvedic programmes. The resort counts it among three spas in Turkey with a EuropeSpa certificate. The resort runs on an all-inclusive basis.
