Shock for vacationers: Aldiana Club in Side has to close immediately!

Side, Türkei - The Aldiana Club in Side, Türkiye, will be closed from June 20, 2025. This short -term decision results from an escalating legal dispute with the owner, which was tightened by a current judgment of a Turkish court. This was announced by the DERTOUR Group, which does not provide any further details on the legal disputes. The verdict forces all guests who are in the facility for early departure, which triggered concern among tourists.

Options for affected guests

In order to accommodate the affected guests, Aldiana offers several options. The following options are available for all guests who want to arrive from June 20:

• Free rebooking to another Aldiana Club.
• rebooking to another Turkish holiday resort at no extra charge.
• cancellation with complete reimbursement and a travel voucher over 100 euros per person for the next booking.

As the tour continues, new bookings for the Aldiana Club Side are no longer possible. A team will also take over the coordination of the moving of the guests to the surrounding alternative resorts, which should correspond to the previous standard of the club.

background of the closure

The closure of the Aldiana Club in Side, which was only opened in the summer of 2023, reduces the Aldiana portfolio to ten plants in six countries. According to Aldiana Managing Director Andreas Pospiech, there is a lack of a reliable basis of planning, since the owner tries to get over the agreed transfer period.

The Derour Group has also assured that travel agency partners are supported in rebookings and cancellations, including the takeover of the commission. This measure is intended to help travelers in the difficult situation and ensure the smooth running of the rebookings.
