Cornelia Diamond Golf Resort & Spa – Belek, Turkey

Cornelia Diamond arcs around an eight-hectare salt-water lagoon whose fingers feed nine sparkling pools, two of them Olympic-length for squad sessions. Behind the palm colonnade the Cornelia Tennis Center flexes its muscles: seven red-clay, two hard and one artificial-grass court, all flood-lit and serviced by licensed coaches and a café for post-match refuelling. Three professional football pitches, a FIFA-sized mini-soccer ground and an archery range occupy the north lawns; daylight boot camps add Zumba, step aerobics and yoga on an amphitheatre deck. Golfers ride shuttles five minutes to Sir Nick Faldo’s 27-hole Cornelia Golf Club, while water-lovers join aqua-fit, beach-volleyball and SUP tours straight from the 250-m private shore. Inside, Crassula Spa pairs a 25 m heated pool with hydrotherapy circuits, ice fountains and deep-tissue recovery treatments. The multi-level gym overlooks gardens through floor-to-ceiling glass and stocks Skillmills, rowing ergs and power cages. Families roam an aqua park, bowling alley and Boccia greens; night owls segue from live bands to the beach club’s silent-disco headphones before drifting to sound-proofed suites wired with ultrafast Wi-Fi. Chef brigades fuel the action with omega-rich sushi, vegan kebabs and macro-counted grills across ten restaurants, proving high-performance living can still taste indulgent.
