Corendon Hotels & Resorts, which operates within the Corendon Tourism Group and continues its investments, continues to grow with its new hotel located in the center of Kemer, on the seafront, following Corendon Grand Park Lara and Corendon Playa Kemer. The hotel, which is preparing to launch in the winter months, will open at the beginning of the 2026 summer season.

The region's largest and most comprehensive Aqua Park will be at the service of both hotel guests and the city.
Corendon Hotels & Resorts, which offers its guests a holiday full of entertainment, activities and sports, will serve with the largest aqua park in the region in its new hotel. Among the advantages of this new hotel, where guests of all ages, especially families will have a great time, are its central and seafront location, lush gardens and rich gastronomic variety. The hotel, which will open with a large investment, will start welcoming its guests at the beginning of the 2026 summer season. Corendon Hotels & Resorts will continue its investments in Turkey's popular coastal cities.
Significant Investments in Sports and Sports Tourism from Corendon Hotels & Resorts in 2024
Corendon Hotels & Resorts stands out not only in the field of hospitality but also with its world-class fields and courts, as well as its investments in both football and tennis throughout 2024. Corendon Football Center, located in Kundu, which has hosted many teams to date, has provided training and accommodation opportunities to dozens of teams from Turkey and abroad in less than a year. With increasing demands, Corendon Football Center increases the interest of teams in the region and contributes to Antalya's sports tourism.
Corendon Tennis Club Kemer, which was opened on April 5, 2024, has hosted many national and international organizations to date. Corendon Tennis Club Kemer hosts all tennis lovers from the age of 5 with its atmosphere intertwined with nature right next to the Bey Mountains, 14 clay courts, outdoor fitness area, Corendon Club Cafe, warm-up areas, tennis wall, individual or group lessons with instructors, court rental facilities, as well as 12-month membership services open to the region. With the extension of the season dates with the clay court season opening in spring and autumn, tennis academies from Turkey, England, Europe and CIS countries are frequently hosted in the climate conditions required by sports tourism.
Corendon Tennis Club Kemer, which quickly increased its recognition, hosted the "Turkish Bowl" tournament in its first year within the scope of the cooperation with the international Ten Pro Global Junior Tour, which is based in the Netherlands. With this tournament, it was ensured that athletes from approximately 50 different countries from 5 continents got to know the region. Following the success of the first year, the 2nd Ten Pro Turkish Bowl was held again in April this year. The tournament, which will be held again in April 2026, has been extended to 3 weeks due to the intense interest it has received.
Thanks to the Corendon Playa Kemer hotel, which is 5 minutes away from the tennis courts, it increased its recognition in these markets by offering the concept of tennis and accommodation together to tennis academies in countries such as England, the Netherlands, Germany, Poland, the Czech Republic and Russia. In 2026, the new hotel to be opened in Kemer will also host sports groups with accommodation.
Investments That Add Value to Sports, Nature and the Region
Expressing his thoughts at the event, Chairman of the Board of Corendon Tourism Group, Yıldıray Karaer, said, “The most important insight we have gained with over 30 years of experience in tourism is this: Lasting success is measured not only by guest satisfaction, but also by the value you add to the region you are in. This investment is not just about establishing facilities; it is a part of our vision to spread sports to the masses, revitalize the region and extend tourism to 12 months. Every step you take in Turkey is closely watched by the global tourism industry. With this approach, we will continue to develop exemplary practices that consider not only today but also the future.”
Corendon Hotels & Resorts Corporate Communications and Marketing Director Birgül Akgül; “As a communications and marketing professional, I have always known the power of the press very well. I am very happy to see that this value is embraced in the same way in the Corendon Hotels family. Today, we are not only sharing a breakfast here, but also important developments that will contribute to Turkish tourism. Our new hotel, which will open in Kemer in 2026, is by the sea and has the largest aqua park in the region, is one of the strongest examples of this vision. In 2024, we started making investments that add value to the region in the fields of football and tennis with our sports facilities. As Corendon Hotels, we will continue to produce projects that focus on both guest satisfaction and regional development in Turkey's popular regions,” she said.
Corendon Tennis Club Kemer Started Hosting National Tournaments in 2025
Following the successes in the Winter Cup Turkey Series in February and the National Team Determination tournaments for the Under 14s in May, Corendon hosted the Turkish Individual Master's Championship, which will be held between October 27 and November 9.
Corendon Will Organize Its Own International Tennis Tournament
Another international tournament planned for November is the Corendon International Juniors Cup. This tournament, planned to host the competition between domestic and foreign athletes and to introduce the region to young athletes, aims to create a new tournament series under the Corendon brand.
