Palm Wings Ephesus Resort is a popular all-inclusive family resort of the Palm Wings brand on the Pamucak coast, in the Atatürk quarter of Selçuk. Pamucak Beach and Adaland Aquapark are a short drive away, and so are the Ancient City of Ephesus and Zeytin Beach, which makes day trips easy. Richmond Ephesus Resort, Korumar Ephesus Beach & Spa Resort and Labranda Ephesus Princess are all a short walk from the gates.
A pushchair, a folding buggy or a bulky bag of beach toys belongs in the booking notes. That way space is kept for it in the vehicle you choose, and there are no surprises at the boot when you load up at the airport for the ride to Palm Wings Ephesus Resort.
