Anamur Ocean Resort is a three-star beach-front property situated on Sahil Yolu in İskele Mahallesi in the coastal town of Anamur, approximately 200 kilometres west of Mersin city at Turkey's southernmost point on the Anatolian peninsula, within Mersin province. Anamur sits at one of the closest points between Turkey and Cyprus — the island is visible on clear days from the Anamur coastline. The area is also home to Mamure Castle, one of the best-preserved Crusader and medieval sea fortresses in Turkey, standing directly on the beach approximately 6 kilometres northeast of the resort. The property offers a relaxed beach resort atmosphere suited to families and couples seeking a quieter alternative to the busier Kızkalesi resort cluster further east. Guest rooms are available in standard beach-view, double seafront, and bungalow configurations, with breakfast included in most rate packages. An outdoor pool complements the direct beach access for guests who prefer freshwater swimming. A restaurant serves lunch and dinner from a menu of Turkish coastal cuisine with grilled fish and mezze plates. A bar operates through the day and into the evening. Free parking is provided on site for guests arriving by vehicle along the coastal highway, which connects Anamur to Mersin and beyond. The surrounding area offers boat trips along the rugged Anamur coastline, visits to Anamur's historic town center and bazaar, and excursions to Mamure Castle, which can be explored independently without a guide.
