A Çukurova Airport to Elite World Resort Mersin Silifke transfer runs along a long stretch of the Mersin coastline. Mersin, Erdemli, Kızkalesi, Silifke and Taşucu all fall behind before the road reaches Yeşilovacık. For families who would rather not start their holiday with a string of connections over a distance like that, here is how the journey goes from arrivals to the resort entrance.
Starting a Long Drive Well Prepared
Put your flight number in the booking; we track the flight, and a delay moves the pickup to the real landing time. With your luggage collected, walk through arrivals and look for the driver holding a sign with your name. The car is waiting in the car park.
A little preparation helps on a long drive. Keep the children's snacks and water in your hand luggage. If you need a child seat, add it to the booking as an extra and it will be fitted in advance.
After Silifke, Pines and Coves
The car heads west from the airport towards Mersin on the wide roads around the city. Then comes the coastal road towards Erdemli: greenhouses, citrus groves, beach towns along the water. You pass Kızkalesi, Narlıkuyu and Atakent, then reach Silifke.
The real change in scenery comes after Taşucu. The road leaves the town, the coast fills with pine-covered headlands and small coves, and the bends multiply. After Boğsak Bay the road enters Yeşilovacık and the car stops at the resort entrance on Akdeniz Street. The resort's name is in your booking, so there are no directions to give. On summer weekends, traffic can build leaving Mersin and through the beach towns.
Choosing a Car for a Resort Holiday
A week's family luggage looks nothing like a short business trip. Suitcases, beach bags, sometimes a pushchair. Comfort matters too on a drive this long:
- A couple with two cases: Premium Sedan or Comfort Class
- A solo traveller or couple travelling light: Business Sedan
- A family of four or five with a pushchair: VIP Vito
- A family who want to rest on the long drive: Ultra VIP Vito
- Seven people wanting a more comfortable ride: Ultra VIP Sprinter
- A gathering of relatives, up to fifteen: Mercedes Sprinter
Prices are per vehicle, not per person, and the form shows every class side by side.
Check-In and the Return Plan
Land around midday and you will reach the resort by late afternoon. On an early-morning flight your room may not be ready, so ask the hotel about check-in beforehand. For Yeşilovacık's setting and day trips from the resort, see our Elite World Resort Mersin Silifke transfer guide.
The return needs no separate booking: add the resort-to-airport leg with "Add return" in the same reservation. Because the road is long, leave a generous margin when you count the pickup time back from your flight. If dates change, send a change request through My Reservation. To start, choose Çukurova Airport and Elite World Resort Mersin Silifke in the form and enter your flight number.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the route from the airport to Yeşilovacık?
The car heads towards Mersin on the wide roads around the city, then follows the coastal road through Erdemli and Kızkalesi to Silifke. After Taşucu the road becomes more winding and wooded, and past Boğsak it reaches Yeşilovacık. Journey time varies with traffic and season.
Which car class is most comfortable for the long drive?
Comfort you would never notice on a short hop becomes obvious on a run as far as Yeşilovacık. Couples are well served by a Premium Sedan or Comfort Class. Families get generous luggage space in a VIP Vito, and those wanting a quieter cabin can choose the Ultra VIP Vito. Prices are per vehicle and shown side by side.
What happens if our flight lands at night?
If you entered your flight number, the car waits for your actual landing time and takes you straight to the resort. We suggest telling the hotel about a late arrival in advance, since late check-in is the hotel's own arrangement and we cannot speak for it.
How early should we leave for the return transfer?
We cannot give a fixed figure, because journey time depends on traffic and season. Choose a pickup time counting back from your flight, allowing for the long coastal road, the drive past Mersin and airport check-in. You can book the return with your arrival using "Add return".
