Northstar Resort & Hotels

On the Sea of Marmara in Darica, minutes from Bayramoglu Bird Park and a short drive to Viasea Theme Park and Viaport Marina. Family-friendly resort feel with easy access to Eskihisar Castle, Faruk Yalcin Zoo and about 25 km from Sabiha Gokcen Airport.

Fifty-two individually decorated guestrooms mix modern tech with relaxed seaside vibes. Rooms feature minibars, plasma TVs, wired and wireless internet, safes and deep soaking bathtubs in shower/tub combinations — simple comforts with a stylish edge.

Soak in an outdoor pool and sip at the poolside bar, or reset in the sauna and hit the fitness center. Nights can include a nightclub or laid-back TV lounges; wedding services, a complimentary shuttle within 10 km and valet parking keep things easy. Expect sea-breeze mornings and practical perks like laundry, elevator access and free on-site parking.

Complimentary high-speed wired and wireless internet, a 24-hour business center and two meeting rooms make work simple. Train-station pick-up on request and free valet parking add convenience for corporate groups.

Dine poolside at Star Restaurant with alfresco seating and pool views, grab drinks from one of three bars/lounges or order 24-hour room service. A complimentary hot-and-cold buffet breakfast is served daily, with local cuisine and regional flavors on offer.
