Delphin Imperial Lara
- Toddler
- Kid
- Teen
Delphin Imperial is a big, buzzy all-inclusive on the Kundu stretch of Lara, popular for its water park and its rock-bottom transfer time from the airport. It leans into the classic big-resort formula (lots of slides, lots of activities, lots of people), and does it at a friendlier price than the top Belek names.
Our verdict
A high-energy, good-value pick for families who want maximum slides and activities with minimum transfer time. Do not expect boutique polish, but for keeping kids busy near the airport it delivers.
The rooms
Roomy, traditionally styled rooms with family options that sleep four comfortably, geared to practical family stays rather than boutique design. The big draws sit outside the room: a multi-slide water park, a bowling alley and a very short airport transfer.

Parents also ask
How busy does it get?
Very busy in July and August: it is a large, popular resort, so expect lively pools and an early rush for shaded sunbeds.
What ages does the kids club take?
Roughly four to twelve, with multilingual staff, so younger toddlers will still need you close by.
Is it good value?
Yes, for a big water-park resort this close to the airport it prices below the top Belek names, which is much of its appeal.
Similar family stays
in Antalya
Rixos Premium Belek
Big, comfortable rooms across several categories, with the family-sized options adding either connecting doors or a separate living space so parents are not tiptoeing past a cot at 8pm. Cots and bed rails are free on request, and higher categories come with a proper sofa bed for an older child.
in Antalya
ELA Excellence Resort Belek
Bright, well-kept rooms with family options that add a separate kids' area or connecting layout, and a strong reputation for keeping little ones happy. Baby and toddler equipment is well organised here, from cots and bottle warmers to a dedicated baby buffet, which sets it apart from resorts that treat under-fives as an afterthought.
in Antalya
Lara Barut Collection
Comfortable, contemporary rooms with a good number of family layouts that sleep two adults and two children without feeling squeezed. The standout here is location as much as the rooms: you are on the Lara strip, minutes from the airport, so the transfer that tires everyone out is mercifully short.
