Figures are AirROI estimates for the 12 months to October 2026, and stays count Airbnb bookings only. Typical stay is a booking's length, occupancy the share of available nights booked, and revenue the yearly average per home, before costs. Guest rating is out of 5. Airbnb data files some places as one district or township, so Serik and rows like it cover several towns. Months in brackets: AirROI has under 12 months for that town, so its busiest month is read from those.
Money figures on this page are in Turkish Lira, converted from US dollars at ₺44.8 per US$, the typical rate from November 2025 to October 2026.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the most popular beach town in Turkey?

What is the most affordable beach town in Turkey?
By AirROI's estimated nightly rate on Airbnb in the 12 months to October 2026, among beach towns in Turkey with 200 or more homes, the lowest are Konyaaltı (Antalya) (₺4,842), Alanya (Antalya) (₺4,976) and Kemer (Antalya) (₺6,411). That is the average asking price on booked nights, not what it costs to live or buy there.
What are some small beach towns in Turkey?

What beach towns in Turkey offer the strongest Airbnb returns?
Returns depend on what a home costs to buy and run, which AirROI's figures do not cover. On AirROI's estimated revenue per home in the 12 months to October 2026, among beach towns in Turkey with 200 or more homes, the highest are Bodrum (Muğla) (₺797,156), Serik (Antalya) (₺763,310) and Kaş (Antalya) (₺710,591).

How These Lists and Numbers Are Made
How a town gets on this list. A town needs 100 or more Airbnb homes with recent stays. A language model then judges the place from its name, state, country and coordinates, not from words in its name: it has to be on an ocean or sea coast with its own beach, seafront or harbour, or on a Great Lake with a public beach, and within about 10 km of the shore. The town's own listings can back that up, with 30% of its homes listing beach access, or 10% with ocean views, waterfront homes or beach in their titles besides. A town whose listings do not gets a second, stricter check, which asks whether people go there for that or mainly for something else. Big cities stay off. Corrections come last: places the checks got wrong are added or taken off, and rows that name one place are joined.
How the figures are made. Stays, occupancy, nightly rate and revenue are AirROI estimates built from Airbnb listing data, and cover Airbnb only. A town's stays are its bookings in the period, and the typical stay and busiest month come from the same data. Guest ratings, home sizes and how far ahead guests book are the latest figures in each town's AirROI data. Month ranks compare each month's part of Airbnb nights. Origin rests on 367,124 reviews and describes guests who left a review, not everyone who stayed. A town needs 1,000 reviews before this page gives its share from abroad.
