Spas, Hammams and Massage in Manavgat

Spa and hammam options in Manavgat are concentrated around Side and Ilıca: of the three venues on this page, two are day-use hammams and spas in Side, and one is a beach resort hotel in Ilıca. In this holiday district on the Mediterranean coast, a hammam visit is usually planned as part of a sightseeing trip or holiday; the main services are the Turkish bath, kese (exfoliating scrub) and foam massage.

Day-use hammams in Side

The two day-use hammams in Side are independent venues that you can use without staying at a hotel. Side Demirhan Hamam & Spa on Cennetler Caddesi offers a sauna, steam room, salt room and Russian bath alongside its Turkish bath, together with kese and foam massage, body scrubs, facials and medical massage, all in one place. Sultan Hamam Side on Kiremithane Sokak combines traditional hammam rituals with massage packages, making a convenient short break for anyone exploring Side.

A resort hotel in Ilıca

Manavgat's resort hotel option, Side Sunport Hotel & Spa in Ilıca, is a beach resort combining indoor and outdoor pools with a private beach area. The list has no detailed information on the hotel's spa menu; ask the venue directly about massage and hammam options and whether non-residents can use the spa area. At coastal resort hotels, spa use is usually organised around guests staying at the hotel, and outside entry varies by venue.

Before you go to a hammam in Manavgat

The arrangement for women and men at Manavgat's hammams varies by venue: Sultan Hamam Side operates on a mixed basis, while the arrangement at the other two venues is not stated on the list. When choosing a package, asking which treatments such as kese, foam, massage and sauna are included in the price, how long it lasts in total and whether a peshtemal and towel are provided makes comparison easier. As it gets busier in the summer season, it is wise to book ahead, and not to have kese on sunburnt skin. For first-timers, a separate guide explains how to use a hammam step by step; for Antalya's other districts, see the Antalya page.
