You picked the best place...considering that I live there. Some things you'd want to see is the Beach Park which has restaurants, night clubs, and a carnival all along the beach side.
You should also see the historical sites that surround Antalya. They would take about 15-20 minutes by car to get there, and it is well worth the trip. One popular place to see is Aspendos which isn't too far near Antalya.
There are fabulous hotels that you must see out near the Lara district. I went to look at the hotels there and they are just so beautiful. They had a Japanese style hotel with a ferris wheel outback, which was really cool.
You must also swim in the sea and also take a trip to the mountains that surround Antalya. They even have a restaurant on top of the one mountain that spins around and you can see practically the whole city. At night it's really beautiful when you're sitting at home and looking at the restaurant from below. Since it has light, it pretty much stands out in the night.
Hope your trip goes well! :-)

Hi,

Well, in fact it is a wide question.

Something About Antalya;
The city as a whole has grown huge now and the infrastructure such as roads and drains are struggling to catch up, but there are still areas that are very attractive indeed: Kaleiçi, with its narrow cobbled streets of historic Turkish and Greek houses is the old center of Antalya, now mainly hotels, gift shops, and many, many bars. The big new hotels such as the Sheraton are along the coast above the Konyaalti and Lara beaches, and indeed spread along the coast in both directions far beyond the city of Antalya itself.

In summer the town is heaving with tourists both from Turkey itself and sun-seeking foreigners, many from Britain and Germany and for the last few years a large number from Russia as well. On summer evenings it is too hot and humid to sleep and Antalya hums with the sound of people buzzing around on scooters or cracking open seeds and nuts with their teeth as they parade the streets with their friends and families. In winter the town is cool and quiet.

Antalya has now acquired a rich middle-class and the associated developments such as private colleges, and luxury cars. The tree-lined avenue along the cliff-top to Konyaaltı is one of Antalya's best-known locations, lined with luxury apartments and posh shops; the other major shopping street is Işıklar Caddesi.

Antalya is not all wealth and glamour of course and there are large neighbourhoods of working families struggling to survive in this hot climate, where employment is seasonal.
