Owning a hotel-style suite instead of just booking one for a week – this is the core idea behind this compact, fully furnished one-bedroom apartment for sale in Serenity Residence Mahmutlar. The 45 m² layout sits on the 11th floor of a young building, inside a complex that offers an Olympic pool, full spa, cinema, restaurant, room service and professional management. Investors who ask, “Can I run this on Airbnb like a hotel room?” get a very clear answer here: yes.
Many homes in Alanya come with a pool and a small gym. Serenity Residence goes far beyond that. This residence operates with a hotel concept: lobby, 24/7 reception-style security, cleaning services, dry cleaning, beauty salon, doctor’s office, business rooms and room service. The apartment itself follows the same logic: modern glam interior, turn-key ready, compact and efficient so every square metre can work for rental income.
Price sits around €94,000, building age is about two years and the complex stands roughly 600 metres from the beach. That trio – price, facilities and young building age – is what puts this listing in a different category from standard apartments for sale in Mahmutlar.
This is not a large family home. It is a 45 m², one-bedroom apartment designed to behave like an upmarket hotel suite. That compact footprint works in favour of the investor: no long corridors, no wasted corners, almost every square metre contributes to nightly rates and long-stay comfort. Cleaning is fast, staging for photos is easy, and guests immediately understand the layout.
The apartment sits on the 11th floor of a 12-storey block, facing north toward the mountains, city and inner facilities. In Alanya’s climate, north orientation is a hidden advantage. The home stays naturally cooler in the hottest months, which means more comfort and lower A/C bills for both owner and guests. Evening time on the balcony brings a mix of fresh air and distant lights rather than direct sun.
From an investor’s point of view, the formula is simple: a compact, efficient plan that acts like a hotel room plus living area; full furniture and white goods already in place; and a building that is only a few years old, which lowers short-term renovation risk. Add the hotel concept of the residence and you get a product made for platforms like Airbnb and Booking.
The layout follows a straightforward logic. An open kitchen and living room occupy the main space, leading to a large balcony that almost doubles as an extra room in warm weather. The bedroom and bathroom sit away from the direct entrance and kitchen zone, so guests feel that sleeping and living areas are clearly separated.
A large L-shaped sofa, four-person dining table and full TV unit fit into the living space without blocking movement. Guests can watch TV, work on a laptop, eat at a table and still walk easily to the kitchen and balcony. This clarity in the plan translates directly into better guest satisfaction and fewer complaints about “cramped” conditions, even though the size stays compact and efficient.
The big balcony plays an important role in perceived space. Doors slide open to connect inside and outside, creating a natural spot for coffee, evening drinks, or remote work. From the 11th floor, views cover the landscaped facilities, the city and the mountain line, giving guests the feeling that they are above the holiday traffic rather than next to it.
In daily and weekly rentals, design often sells faster than pure square metres. This apartment leans into that fact. The living room centres around a grey L-shaped sofa, accented with blue and gold cushions. The colour palette stays neutral yet photo-friendly, which matters for thumbnail images on listing platforms.
A TV unit and coffee table in black marble-effect surfaces with fine legs and gold lines bring a light glam touch that fits the residence’s concept. The same tones continue into the dining area, where table and chairs echo the black-and-gold theme. That consistency gives a guest the impression of a professionally designed space rather than a random furniture mix.
Lighting completes the picture. A black linear bar with triple pendant lights runs over the main zone, while recessed spots handle general lighting. Guests can brighten the room for working and meals or create a softer evening mood with fewer switches. Glossy, light-coloured ceramic flooring and off-white walls reflect light and help the 45 m² feel open in photos and in real life.
While the living area carries the visual drama, the bedroom intentionally moves in the opposite direction. A white bed base with simple headboard, light bedding and a natural wood wardrobe create a calm, almost hotel-like atmosphere dedicated to rest. Soft tulle and curtains filter light and support deep sleep, which guests appreciate after long travel days.
Lighting in the bedroom follows modern geometric lines but avoids harsh contrasts. The overall feel is clean and minimal. That decision keeps the space comfortable for many types of guests: young couples, solo travellers, digital nomads and small families with a baby cot. A neutral bedroom also reduces the risk of negative reactions to “too personal” or “too busy” design.
For long stays, this minimal approach supports routine. The bedroom remains a quiet, consistent base, while the living area carries most of the style and energy. From the owner’s side, it also simplifies maintenance: fewer decorative elements, fewer things to repair or replace between rentals.
One of the main advantages of this apartment for sale is that it is sold fully furnished, with all key white goods already in place. A buyer does not need to plan extra budget for beds, seating, storage or appliances. That compresses the timeline from purchase to first rental and keeps the total investment closer to the bare purchase price.
The open kitchen runs in a warm wood tone with a black worktop and black glass backsplash, delivering a strong yet timeless look. Built-in oven, hob, dishwasher, fridge and washing machine are integrated into the line. Guests find everything they need for both short and long stays: cooking simple meals, washing clothes, storing groceries and cleaning dishes after dinner.
An electric water heater takes care of hot water, which keeps the system independent and easy to service. Cable TV-satellite infrastructure and reliable internet capacity in the building support streaming, remote work and online entertainment. From the moment the title deed transfers, the home stands ready for photographs and the first listings.
Facilities often decide which homes in Alanya generate the best rental income. Serenity Residence runs more like a high-end resort than a standard residential building. Guests can spend several days inside the complex without ever feeling bored, which increases the property’s appeal for both short breaks and longer stays.
Water and wellness sit at the heart of the project. Residents and guests enjoy:
This package allows the apartment to compete directly with mid-to-high range hotels in Mahmutlar. When you list it on Airbnb or Booking, guests see not only a private home but also a spa and pool complex attached to it. That helps justify higher nightly rates and keeps occupancy stronger outside peak summer, as winter guests value the indoor pool and spa.
The residence continues the hotel concept with a full range of social and functional areas. On-site facilities include:
Guests who work remotely can leave the apartment and use meeting rooms or quieter corners in shared areas while still staying connected to high-speed internet. Families can split activities: one person attends the gym, another supervises children in the playroom, and the rest enjoy leisure at the pool or cafe. This flexibility increases the project’s appeal to diverse guest profiles.
Practical services take the experience further. Serenity Residence offers an impressive list: cleaning services, room service, dry cleaning, beauty salon, doctor’s office and professional site management. For an owner, that means less personal workload per booking. For guests, it means hotel-style comfort with the privacy of a home.
Under the hotel concept, security and reliability remain essential. The complex delivers:
Service charge sits around €65 per month, which feels competitive when you compare it with the facilities and services included. Owners gain a structure where guests arrive to a controlled, well-managed environment, and the building continues to operate smoothly even during storms or power interruptions.
Mahmutlar has become one of the most active zones for real estate in Alanya, especially for buyers focused on rental income. The area combines coastal living, urban services and a strong international community. Serenity Residence positions itself about 600 metres from the beach, close to bus stops and within easy reach of shops, cafes and daily services.
Guests can walk to the sea in a few minutes or take a very short ride. At the same time, they return to a protected, quieter compound slightly away from the most intense noise of the main coastal road. That balance works well for both holidaymakers and long-stay tenants who want easy access to the beach without being locked into first-line crowds.
Orientation is often listed as a simple technical detail; in this case, it becomes part of the selling story. The apartment faces north on the 11th floor, which means:
Guests who come from cooler climates usually underestimate how intense the Alanya sun can feel. A north-facing, high-floor home solves a problem they do not fully anticipate. They enjoy fresh air, light and views of the mountains, city and facilities without being forced to close shutters all day. Reviews often reflect that comfort, which helps future bookings.
From a cost perspective, reduced reliance on air conditioning matters. Owners planning to run the apartment as a high-occupancy rental will appreciate the savings that accumulate over a long season. The orientation becomes a financial advantage as well as a lifestyle one.
Not every buyer wants the same thing from homes in Alanya. This property targets a specific, clear set of profiles, and understanding them helps clarify whether it matches your own plans.
Investors who ask, “Can I run this apartment for sale like a hotel room?” will find the answer easy. Interior design, furniture, appliances and services all support a hotel-style operation:
Daily and weekly guests receive an experience that can match or beat many hotels in Mahmutlar at a similar or slightly lower cost. That value perception supports strong occupancy and realistic nightly rates, which in turn build a healthy ROI for the owner.
Young couples and newlyweds who want a ready-to-move home with a strong lifestyle element will also connect with this apartment. They can move in with suitcases, connect internet, and start living without any extra setup. The complex handles much of the “hotel life” feel: spa, pools, cafes, sports and social areas.
The modern glam interior, with black-and-gold accents, wood and soft textiles, tends to appeal to buyers from the Middle East, Russia/CIS and younger local professionals. At the same time, the bedroom’s calmer style keeps day-to-day use comfortable rather than visually tiring.
Single professionals and digital nomads will value the work-friendly environment. Business rooms, meeting spaces, library and quiet areas in the residence allow them to separate work and rest even though the home stays compact. They can hold online meetings in dedicated rooms, then return to a private suite-style apartment.
The north-facing orientation and 11th-floor location support long workdays without overheating, and the spa or gym offers an easy way to decompress afterwards. For someone who moves between cities and countries during the year, owning a base like this in Mahmutlar can create a very attractive mix of coastal living and productivity.
Some buyers plan to use the apartment for a few weeks or months personally, then rent it out for the rest of the time. Serenity Residence supports that strategy well. Hotel-like services simplify key handovers, cleaning and problem-solving while you are away.
Stylish but neutral decor keeps the space adaptable to many cultures and age groups. That adaptability protects the investment: you are not locked into a narrow niche of guests who happen to like a very specific interior style. Instead, the apartment remains attractive to a broad range of tenants throughout the year.
From a financial perspective, this property sits in a sweet spot. The asking price of around €94,000 buys a fully furnished one-bedroom apartment in a young, hotel-concept residence in Mahmutlar. Cost per square metre sits near €2,089, but that number hides an important fact: those metres live inside a complex with facilities and services that many hotels would be proud of.
Service charge around €65 per month supports pools, spa, sports areas, common utilities, cleaning of shared spaces, security and professional management. In return, guests and long-stay tenants receive an experience that feels significantly above standard residential level. Daily and weekly rental rates can reflect that difference.
Cash buyers benefit from the possibility of small discounts, which effectively lower the entry price and push ROI numbers further in the right direction. A well-marketed property like this can cover its running costs and still deliver a solid net yield, especially when combined with an intelligent pricing strategy across high season, shoulder months and winter.
Exit strategy also looks positive. Compact, hotel-style homes in Alanya with strong facilities tend to remain in demand among new investors who want to “test” the market with a manageable budget. Clear title deed, young building age and a well-known residence name all support liquidity if you decide to sell in the future.
This is not a random one-bedroom in a pool complex. It is a compact and efficient, fully furnished suite-style apartment embedded in a true hotel-concept residence, in one of the most active districts for real estate in Alanya. If you are looking for a property that you can treat like your own hotel room on Airbnb – rather than a simple flat – this listing deserves serious attention.
