Where the hotel is
Amara Sealight Elite is an all-inclusive beach resort of the Amara brand in Değirmendere, on the shore south of central Kuşadası. Ladies Beach is a short drive away, and the town's sights – the Öküz Mehmet Pasha Caravanserai, the castle on Pigeon Island and Setur Kuşadası Marina – are also within a short drive, as is Kadıkalesi Castle further along the coast. Neighbouring resorts on this shore include Ömer Holiday Resort, Signature Blue Resort Kuşadası and Fantasia Hotel De Luxe Kuşadası.
Resorts like this spread across wide grounds, so your driver takes you straight to the main reception of Amara Sealight Elite rather than a side gate. For the return, the same private driver waits at the lobby at the agreed time.
