Restaurants
Paloma Restaurant
Paloma Restaurant is the main buffet venue, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. Its flexible service makes it the practical choice around morning coaching, afternoon doubles and the organised group schedule.
Wabi Sabi
Wabi Sabi serves Far Eastern and Asian cuisine. Our planned Monday group dinner is at 20:30, with Active Away arranging the reservation. Opening days, menus and capacity remain subject to the hotel's operating schedule.
Quentine
Quentine is the resort's beachfront Mediterranean restaurant. Our final group dinner is planned here on Friday at 20:30, providing a relaxed setting in which to celebrate the week together. The restaurant is weather dependent and subject to reservation.
Curio
Curio is the hotel's BBQ Ã la carte restaurant, focusing on grilled and dry-aged meat dishes. It is an additional resort option and is not part of the planned Active Away dinner itinerary unless we confirm otherwise.
Reservations and current arrangements
Active Away arranges the Wabi Sabi and Quentine group reservations. Restaurant operating days, menus and all-inclusive arrangements can change, so your host will confirm the final details for your departure.
Bars
Bistro Bar
Bistro Bar is open 24 hours under its current schedule and serves drinks, coffee, pastries, sandwiches and late snacks. It is a convenient meeting point and particularly useful if you arrive after the main dinner service.
Quentine Bar
Quentine Bar has a beachfront setting overlooking the Mediterranean. It is a relaxed option for a drink beside the sea, with opening hours governed by the hotel's seasonal schedule.
Pool Bar
Located beside the pool, the Pool Bar keeps refreshments close at hand during the break between tennis sessions.
Selected drinks are covered by the hotel's current all-inclusive arrangements, while premium items and some services may cost extra. Check the current menu and inclusion details before ordering.
Your seven-night stay is on an all-inclusive basis, giving you convenient access to the hotel's scheduled meals, selected drinks and refreshments around the tennis programme. Paloma Restaurant is the main buffet venue for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
We plan two organised à la carte group dinners: Wabi Sabi on Monday at 20:30 and Quentine on Friday at 20:30. We arrange the group reservations, while the hotel controls restaurant opening schedules, capacity and menus.
The 24-hour Bistro Bar is particularly useful for coffee, drinks, pastries, sandwiches and late snacks. Its current service also gives late-arriving guests an option outside the main restaurant hours.
Not every facility, activity, menu item or service is included. Premium drinks, spa treatments, private cabanas, additional court hire, padel, equipment and some watersports may carry an additional charge or require advance booking.
Paloma Orenda is a 5-star beachfront resort in Titreyengol, close to Side on Turkey's Mediterranean coast. Opened in 2019, its 270 rooms are arranged across a modern, low-rise layout within eight hectares of landscaped gardens.
The courts, pools, restaurants and beach are all within the resort grounds, making it easy to move between coaching, meals and time to relax. A 350-metre golden-sand beach provides direct access to the Mediterranean, while Palomaqua waterpark is a few minutes' walk away.
Side and Manavgat are both approximately 6 km from the hotel. This gives you useful options for Wednesday's day at leisure without losing the convenience of a self-contained resort. Paloma Orenda is a family hotel, while the hosted Active Away group and tennis programme are specifically for adults.
For the Active Away programme, we have confirmed access to six outdoor artificial-grass courts and two outdoor clay courts. The courts are within the resort grounds, so the journey between your room and the tennis programme takes only a few minutes.
Morning coaching sessions use four artificial-grass courts. Afternoon sessions use four artificial-grass courts and two clay courts, while the 30-minute masterclasses and coaches' exhibition take place on a clay show court with seating. This gives the whole group a clear view of the demonstrations before returning to court.
Your 22.5-hour Jamie Murray doubles programme is delivered at a 1:6 coach-to-player ratio. Additional tennis, clay-court bookings, padel, private lessons and equipment sit outside the included programme and remain subject to availability and current charges.
Try the gym: The resort gym is well worth a visit and has everything you need for a decent workout.
Everything is close by: Paloma Orenda is a compact resort, with the rooms, restaurants, tennis courts and leisure facilities all within easy reach.
Visit the waterpark: Head to the waterpark at the top of the resort for a fun break and a good laugh.

I’ve been on several Active Away holidays and they are always great. Others will talk about coaching and resort quality (all top drawer) but the thing I love is it’s inclusive: I’ve been as a singleton, in a group and in a couple and I’ve had a brilliant time every time. They have a knack for knowing what people need. Highly recommend.

A fun filled tennis coaching holiday in a top 5* hotel. The quality of coaching is first class with a focus on doubles play. I knew it would help my tennis doubles but have been blown away with the quantity of advice that have made a real difference to my game already. Can’t wait to put it into practice back at the club at home

Paloma Beach was a great location right on the sea with excellent and well appointed tennis courts, super coaching team who worked really hard to ensure everyone had a great time and that they clients really integrated . The result was a week of lots of top tips , great play and fun in the sun. There is no doubt that the standout level of tennis coaching is the USP of Active Away but to make it such an inclusive ,fun experience so that no one feels left out is a really added benefit which Active Away do so effortlessly. Well done Josh, Greg, Alex, Jack and Heather. Top team!!!

Neither my partner or I had been on a tennis holiday before . I was a little concerned over my standard of tennis and fitting in ..The format worked well to integrate diverse levels with good social interaction.The hosts led by Josh were outstanding and my understanding of doubles tennis tactics has moved from non-existent to advanced ! Just need to work on my tennis abilities now .The chosen venue was also excellent. In a large group the all inclusive format works well . Not a hint of Club Med about it .

Five stars to the Active Away team for an amazing tennis holiday at Paloma Orenda in Turkey last week. The coaching was professionally delivered to small groups of 6 people of similar standard in the morning followed by social play in the afternoons. The all inclusive resort was easy to navigate and had very comfortable accommodation. The coaches were very approachable and fun to be with. Thanks for a wonderful week.

A group of us from our tennis club travelled together for our first tennis holiday. We weren’t sure what to expect and it sounded like a lot of tennis to be played each day. However, it was extremely well organised and structured so that it was fun and manageable, with time to relax also. The host Josh, was exceptional from start to finish. He knew when we were arriving and leaving and kept us up to date throughout the holiday. He was very professional and his enthusiasm was infectious. We all learnt a lot and had fun in the process. A huge thank you for such a fabulous holiday. We will have great memories from our time away.

This was my first active away holiday. The resort was beautiful and so quiet, everything was close by, you could do as much or as little as you wanted, it was wonderful. The whole holiday was well run, communication was excellent. I really enjoyed the tennis coaching. The coaching covered a broad spectrum of topics with plenty of room for differentiation and most importantly it was great fun. I thought it was excellent, a very enjoyable week. Thank you, Josh, Matt, Adam and Owen.
Nancy
5/1/2022
This is my first tennis holiday and I was pleasantly surprised by how professional the coaching team is. We played about 4-5 hours of tennis a day which is probably the right amount. The coaching included a lot of tips about playing doubles, which I find very useful. The ActiveAway programme is very well structured and I feel most of the tips they gave are doable and can be put into practice. We were put into different smaller groups every morning and afternoon and we have the chance to play with different people. This has helped us to gel with each other more easily. We enjoyed each other’s company even outside the court and had so much fun. The hotel was very well chosen. We stayed at a relatively new 5* resort hotel - Paloma Orenda. Overall my experience is very good. This is a hotel with a lot of outdoor space including a private beach and several large swimming pools, lots of trees and greens, nice food, very helpful staff, good selection of a la carte restaurants, etc. etc. The only little complaint I have is there seems to be a design fault with the shower door as it always leaks. Overall, this is a great tennis holiday and I would like to express my sincere thanks to the super friendly and professional coaches Josh, Matt, Adam and Owen for making this holiday so special and fun! Well done and I look forward to the next one.

If there is a better way to improve your tennis in an incredible location with such excellent coaches, and having so much fun on and off the courts, I’ve yet to find it. This resort was a brilliant addition to those on offer.
Rob F.
4/30/2022
This was my 2nd ActiveAway trip and I was pleasantly surprised how different the programme was (at least to me) to my last holiday. Tennis is forever a work in progress and it is encouraging that AA continue to collaborate with those in the know to develop the coaching side. As for the coaches, each brought their know-how and also positivity to their coaching both on and off court. I was certainly engaged and motivated throughout.

Huge thank you to Active Away for a lovely tennis holiday at the Paloma Orenda which was my first tennis holiday. Active Away delivered an extensive coaching program each day with excellent and easy to follow drills. The coaches were all lovely, supportive and fun times were had on court and in the evenings. The hotel they chose was great, very friendly staff, extensive facilities with very good restaurants all of which are all-inclusive and right by the beach. Planning my next trip already! Thank you Josh, Matt, Adam and Owen! Hope to see you again soon. Best wishes, Lynne

Overall an amazing holiday! From the very start the experience was amazing, effective and easy booking process and great communication. We felt like we were in safe hands the whole time. The coaching went above and beyond my expectations, the hotel was amazing, accommodation, facilities, food and drink all truly 5*, the group was so friendly and coaches were great hosts. It has encouraged me to play more tennis so when I return next year I might just be able to win one of them water bottles. Thanks to all the team both at home and away, well done for putting on such a great program.

Amazing five star holiday. I went as a solo traveller and slightly hesitant, as I'm improver standard rather than a top notch tennis player, but I needn't have worried, It was a brilliant holiday (Paloma Orenda, Turkey), a fabulous bunch of people, with supportive coaches and a great sense of fun, everyone was welcoming to the lone travellers in the group, which made it feel very special. The coaching was excellent, my tennis improved immensely over the week and I went home happy and exhausted. Thank you Active Away, it won't be long before I book my next holiday with you.

Just returned to Munich after my second Activeaway Tennis holiday to Turkey. This time to Antalya at the Palma Orenda resort. The week was brilliant. Our host Joshua is a very fine teacher, a great player and a tremendous people person. His coaching is first class. His wing man Alex is also a lovely bloke who combines with Joshua to provide for an outstanding experience on and off the court. The exhibition match was also thrilling! I will book again for another holiday in 2023, maybe to Spain or Greece. Bravo Activeaway!

If you love tennis and want to have a fun time, go on an ActiveAway holiday. We went to Paloma Orenda in Turkey in April, a brilliant all inclusive hotel that has great courts, food, drinks and loads of facilities all within a short distance of each other. The coaching was top class - they really know what is needed to help any standard of player to get something out of the week. The social side is what makes it extra special too - whether you’re a solo traveller or coming with a group, everyone mixes with each other on the courts as well as at meal times and in the evenings. The more social you are the better. Thank you to Josh and the team for making our first ActiveAway holiday so great. Would not hesitate to book another holiday with ActiveAway. Roll on 2023!
