This contrasts with the previous situation where there was lack of bed space compared with high demand, meaning that marketing was not an important factor. This research aims to determine which marketing activities and tools are used by hotels in Antalya province, where mass tourism is prevalent, in order to market their rooms to target groups, which constitutes a large proportion of their income. For research purposes, analysis of the structured research data, using the survey technique on 60 resorts determined by the Antalya Provincial Culture Tourism Offices to have 5 stars and over 800 bed capacity, was used and also, detailed discussions and conclusions were conducted with the sales & marketing executives.
