Alanya recorded 14.1% price growth in 2024, the strongest in Turkey's coastal markets. Foreign buyer demand — particularly from Russia, Scandinavia, and Germany — continues to drive new development. Short-term rental platforms show occupancy rates of 70–85% in summer months. The market is developer-driven with significant new supply, which moderates long-term capital appreciation relative to more supply-constrained markets.
