About this transfer

Alsancak is the strip west of Kyrenia where the Merit properties sit almost on top of each other, and the drive from Ercan is forty-five minutes over the pass and along the coast. The distinction that matters here is not the town but the building: four hotels share a name and a couple of kilometres of road.

Good to know on this route

  • Merit Royal, Merit Royal Premium, Merit Park and Merit Crystal Cove are four separate hotels. Royal and Royal Premium share a forecourt; Park and Crystal Cove are further along. Tell us which one and you will not be walking between them with cases.
  • Riverside Garden Resort is set back inland off the main road rather than on the sea front, and the turning is easy to miss in the dark. We take it as a matter of course.
  • Escape Beach, Denizkızı and Camelot are on this same stretch. Local runs into Kyrenia, up to Lapta or across to Karşıyaka are fixed-price and can be arranged with your driver.

Every transfer includes

  • Meet & greet at arrivals with your name sign
  • Flight tracking — delays never change your fare
  • Tolls, parking and 45 min airport waiting
  • Licensed, professional chauffeur
  • 24 / 7 multilingual support

Questions about this route

There are four Merit hotels — how do I make sure I am dropped at the right one?

Put the exact property in the booking: Merit Royal, Merit Royal Premium, Merit Park or Merit Crystal Cove. They are all on the Alsancak fare, so the price does not change, but the gates are up to two kilometres apart and the difference matters at one in the morning.

Is Alsancak far from Kyrenia town?

About ten kilometres, fifteen minutes on the coast road. Close enough that the harbour and the castle are an easy evening out, far enough that you will not find a taxi waiting outside the hotel to bring you back. We run that leg at a fixed local fare.
