Where Is Orka Lotus Beach? Dalaman Airport Transfer Guide 2027

Where is Orka Lotus Beach and how do you get there from Dalaman Airport? One of Icmeler's best-known beach hotels, Orka Lotus Beach is built into a pine-covered hillside above its own small cove with jetties.

Some booking sites and older vouchers still show it as Sentido Orka Lotus Beach. Both names refer to the same hotel at the same address.

Where Is Orka Lotus Beach?

Orka Lotus Beach is on Ataturk Street in Icmeler, Marmaris, on the Icmeler end of the Marmaris–Icmeler coast road, in its own small bay.

• Province / district: Mugla / Marmaris

• Area: Icmeler

• Distance to Icmeler centre: about 1 km

• Distance to Marmaris centre: about 7 km

• Nearest airport: Dalaman Airport (DLM)

Thanks to its own cove and jetty, the hotel has a beach separate from busy Icmeler beach.

Distance and Journey Time from Dalaman Airport

• Distance: about 103 km

• Journey time: about 1 hour 35–50 minutes in normal traffic

• Route: D400 via Ortaca and Koycegiz, Marmaris road at the Gokova junction, over Cetibeli into Marmaris, then the coast road through Siteler to Icmeler

Orka Lotus Beach is 5–7 km beyond the Siteler hotels, so add 10–15 minutes to times quoted for central Marmaris.

Is the Hotel on a Hill?

Yes, the hotel is built on a slope with several levels. With a private transfer we drop you at the main entrance on Ataturk Street, so you won't need to haul suitcases around the grounds.

How to Get from Dalaman Airport to Orka Lotus Beach

1. Private transfer

You're met at the airport with a name sign and driven straight to the hotel in a vehicle reserved for you. See the per-vehicle price on our Dalaman Airport – Orka Lotus Beach transfer page.

• Prices are per vehicle, not per person

• Sedan, minivan and minibus options

• Free baby and child seats

• Flight tracking; your driver waits if you're delayed

2. Taxi

A taxi can take you straight to Icmeler. The fare for around 100 km runs on the meter, so ask for an estimate first.

3. Bus and dolmus

Take the airport bus to Marmaris, then the Icmeler dolmus. It's cheap but involves a change, and there's an uphill walk from the stop to the entrance. Full comparison: how to get from Dalaman Airport to Marmaris.

4. Car hire

Useful if you want to explore Turunc, Kumlubuk or Selimiye; for the airport run alone a transfer is simpler.

Early Arrival: Check-in Is 15:00

While many hotels in the area check in at 14:00, Orka Lotus Beach checks in at 15:00. On morning flights your room may not be ready, but your transfer is still timed to your flight.

Meeting Point

Domestic and international passengers at Dalaman use the same exit. After collecting your bags, go to Mavi Transfer desk no. 4, where your driver waits with a name sign. Using the CIP lounge? Add it to your booking notes.

Returning to the Airport

Allow around 1 hour 40 minutes from Icmeler to Dalaman plus international check-in time. We agree the pick-up time with you based on your flight.
