TL;DR
Lara district offers more variety with boutique hotels and apartment hotels nearby, while Kundu is mainly suited for all-inclusive resorts with little to do outside the hotel.
If easy access to public transport matters, look for a hotel along Atatürk Boulevard. If the sea is your priority, choose accommodation right along the coast.
If you want to explore the area beyond your hotel, choose Lara district — it has plenty of apartment hotels and boutique hotels within walking distance of each other. Kundu is only worth it if you plan to stay on the hotel grounds the whole time.
Antalya's coastline is vast, so picking a hotel without first choosing a district is nearly impossible. First pin down your preferred area on Google Maps, then search 'butik otel' or 'boutique hotel' with a price filter. Read recent reviews and choose based on what matters most to you.
Before choosing a hotel, decide on your travel style: all-inclusive resort or a base for independent exploration. This choice determines which district makes sense for you.
