Alanya, an Antalya Province district between the Taurus Mountains and the Mediterranean, has its old town on a castle headland. We list property for sale in Alanya from Okurcalar to Demirtas: 3,153 properties from 46,319 USD, from one-bedroom pool-complex flats, new or resale, to villas.
Neighbourhoods east and west of the castle
The old town stands on a rocky headland below Alanya Castle. The D400 coastal road runs along the sea through the neighbourhoods on either side of it. Living in the centre puts the harbour and the old town within walking distance.
East of the centre, the coast runs through Tosmur, Oba and Kestel to Mahmutlar and Kargicak. Oba is home to the district’s training and research hospital, linked to Alaaddin Keykubat University. Mahmutlar was a separate municipality until Law No. 6360 of 2012 made it a neighbourhood of the district. Holiday homes and apartment blocks for European visitors have reshaped it. West of the centre lie Konakli, Avsallar and, furthest out, Okurcalar.
The two sides are also served by different airports. Gazipasa–Alanya Airport lies about 40 km to the east, in the neighbouring district of Gazipasa, while Antalya Airport, the larger international airport near Antalya city, is more than 120 km to the west, beyond Avsallar and Okurcalar.
Residence permits by neighbourhood
Ownership, fees and citizenship are governed by national rules, summarised on our guide to buying in Turkey. Here the open question is the neighbourhood. On 1 July 2022 a decision of the Presidency of Migration Management closed Kargicak, Mahmutlar, Kestel and Avsallar to new residence-permit applications. Foreigners already registered there were not affected. In June 2026 local media, citing the Alanya chamber of commerce (ALTSO), reported that applications in these four neighbourhoods were in practice being accepted again. The Presidency has published no notice or new list, so in our data the four neighbourhoods are still marked as closed (a 2022 decision) and their listings stay out of the residence-permit collection. If you plan to apply for a residence permit by investment, check with the migration office that the address accepts applications before you pay a deposit.
How we check the data
Methodology
Developer listings reach the catalogue through a feed refreshed every night. The remaining adverts are taken from estate agents’ own sites and from international real-estate portals. Catalogue cards give a US-dollar figure, recalculated each day from the seller’s price at a reference exchange rate. Each property’s own page keeps the original currency, usually euros or Turkish lira. A withdrawn advert leads to a “listing removed” page. Prices on older offers may be out of date. Treat them as a guide.

Limitations
Nothing on this page is legal advice. Before you commit, have the seller or the agent confirm the price and that the property is still for sale. A Turkish lawyer can then check the title deed and the contract.
