Vacationed in August 2023. It was trash. I do not recommend either the country or the hotel. The sea is dirty, shallow, not salty. For a couple of days there was some oil above the sea. Deck chairs and umbrellas on the sea - 20 leva per set. You don't need special shoes, but there are a lot of seashells in the cities, it's unpleasant for the feet. … More ▾ Vacationed in August 2023.

Near the hotel, on the road, everything is littered. Garbage has been lying there for years, it feels like that and it is everywhere (
We went to the city, there is the Soviet Union, there is nothing to see, what to visit, there is not even a place to buy fish, not to mention crabs and shrimps.
The hotel is just a shed made by Ravshon and Jamshut. Everything falls apart or does not work. The bedding is old and dirty, it is changed only every three days. There are girls at the reception who communicate in Russian or Ukrainian, try to help and listen, but many things do not depend on them. I do not recommend! Choose another country!

Hi all! This year in Bulgaria were the 2nd time during the summer (1st May-June Elenite). 2 families went (me, son 2.7, husband and couple with a girl 4.5 years old) Let me tell you, I really liked it. Hotel: Shipka 3 - settled quickly, the room, to our surprise, shocked us with its spaciousness (compared to Villa Elenite), two-room apartment, with a bathroom, another separate bathroom, and 2 balconies. … More ▾ Hi all!
This year in Bulgaria were the 2nd time during the summer (1st May-June Elenite). 2 families went (me, son 2.7, husband and couple with a girl 4.5 years old)
Let me tell you, I really liked it.
Hotel: Shipka 3 - settled quickly, the room, to our surprise, shocked us with its spaciousness (compared to Villa Elenite), two-room apartment, with a bathroom, another separate bathroom, and 2 balconies. Carpet on the floor! In the hall there are a sofa, 2 armchairs, furniture - a wall (for TV)....A huge bed in the bedroom (not 2 beds together - as in many hotels), trellis, bedside tables near the bed... wardrobe. There is always a pool on the territory (there are always enough sunbeds, inside there is a closed pool, a Jacuzzi (but for a fee). There is no territory, but the advantage is that you are on the waterfront, a lot of bars, restaurants, shops..... There is no animation in the hotel either (but we ourselves amuse yourself)
There was only one restaurant and a pool bar. Food - everything is delicious, meat and chicken and pork, fish, several side dishes, vegetables only cucumbers and tomatoes, cabbage with herbs, peppers. Soups. Of course there wasn't much choice, but everything was always fresh and we gorged ourselves. . . Fruits usually apples or peaches, sweet biscuits, muffins (for breakfast) and ice cream.
But most importantly, friendly staff, there was never a line for food and they were never kicked out if someone was late. (compared to Elenity Villas, a lot of people are all hungry, of course, the tables are always dirty and it's hard to find a free table - but the choice of food was a little more).
Go to the sea for 5 minutes -7 minutes with a calm step through a string of restaurant shops and everyone smiles at you....They invite you to come to them in the evening
The beach is clean everywhere sunbeds, one minus all are paid, and between the sunbeds it is forbidden to lie!! ! I had to take 2 sunbeds, an umbrella, and mattresses for 2 families (since on the first line there are just sunbeds without umbrellas, and on the second and third only with mattresses and an umbrella, (this is 8 lev ($ 6) sunbed + 8 umbrella + 3 Leva mattress = total for the family was $ 12. Sea + 23-25%
We did not go to restaurants - there was no point with our tomboys. We walked along the embankment, swung on the rides, took wine and sweets to the Liddi + supermarket (everything is cheaper here - soap on the embankment is 2 lev there is 1.65 lev, etc. ) demanded)
Look like that's it! I wish you all the same good rest : )

terrible staff who don't speak Russian. The cleaning lady who came to us all week just to make the bed and throw out the trash, but never changed the bed and didn't vacuum (I'm already silent about dirty mirrors and glasses). The hotel is incredibly dirty! The pools stink of chlorine and the Germans hang out with volleyballs all the time. … More ▾ terrible staff who don't speak Russian.

The cleaners do not hesitate to break into the room, even if the "do not disturb" sign is hanging....in short, the service is just SUPER! The Germans hang around all night and yell and break down the doors. There is no security, anyone can enter the hotel freely.

Good hotel, kind helpful staff, But 95% of German tourists in the category of 18-22 years old, always drunk and screaming in the corridor until 5 am, music at 3 am is the norm. All night they were looking for some kind of claus, and when they found it, they began to celebrate this case in the corridor... … More ▾ Good hotel, kind helpful staff, But 95% of German tourists in the category of 18-22 years old, always drunk and screaming in the corridor until 5 am, music at 3 am is the norm.

After the congress of the mass Fritz thought let's sleep en hell you stopped by other fokers played football in the hallway at night. My sister was resting in the neighborhood in Odessa, there are adults with children. All in all, choose.

The hotel is very conveniently located. In the very center of the resort. Pleasant staff. A little "tired" rooms, but pretty good bedding, mattresses, pillows. Nice spacious balconies with outdoor furniture. Air conditioning is free, but you need to leave a deposit of 8 euros for the remote control. There is NO iron and ironing room in the hotel! A bit disappointed with all inclusive. … More ▾ The hotel is very conveniently located. In the very center of the resort. Pleasant staff.

Air conditioning is free, but you need to leave a deposit of 8 euros for the remote control. There is NO iron and ironing room in the hotel! A bit disappointed with all inclusive. There are NO snacks during the day. Only 3 meals a day with drinks and drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) at the pool bar from 10:30. It is IMPOSSIBLE to take a bun from breakfast for a child (to have a snack before lunch, as he will swim and get hungry). There is a waitress who almost rips this croissant or peach out of her hands, saying that it is IMPOSSIBLE to take it out and that's it. Although the rest of the staff is more loyal to this. One fool started up - what can you do?
It also happens that sometimes there are not enough empty seats in the restaurant and you have to wait for someone to eat and let you into the restaurant.
The food is a little monotonous, but this is the norm for 3 *. They did not go hungry, there were no poisonings and indigestion. Plus, they serve ice cream every day for lunch and dinner. Every day seasonal fruits (peaches, nectarines, apples, apricots). And next to the hotel is sold ice cream cone (1 lev).
A 10-minute walk from the hotel is a huge modern water park "Aquapolis". The cost of a subscription for the whole day for an adult is 33 leva, for a child - 16. You can take a set of sunbed + mattress + umbrella for 5 leva and leave your things there. Also in the water park there are a lot of restaurants and fast foods. The price for a snack (pizza, kebab, drinks) does not differ from the prices at the resort, which was a pleasant surprise.
In general, I sum up: the hotel is good for young people, families with children... for, in principle, for any category of vacationers. If you are not looking for something super awesome, then you are not here. But I really hope that our Crimea will grow to such a level at least in 20 years!
I wish you a pleasant stay!
I will gladly answer all your questions.

I will be brief. Decent room: clean, comfortable. Receptionists are friendly. In the dining room I was pleased with the opportunity to eat on the balcony. The food is varied and delicious. The gym is located unsuccessfully - on the aisle from the elevator to the exit to the playground. But the most negative emotions I received from the pool. … More ▾ I will be brief.

The gym is located unsuccessfully - on the aisle from the elevator to the exit to the playground. But the most negative emotions I received from the pool. It was almost impossible to swim in the allotted time: either the reagents did not dissolve, or the bottom was washed, or bleach was poured in front of the astonished public. Yes, showers are strongly requested before entering the pool. But not all, but selectively. In general, for vacationers not spoiled by comfort, not bad.

My friend and I rested this summer on Golden Sands in the Shipka hotel... The holiday was so amazing that we just couldn't cram each other into the bus on our way back to Kyiv. So. . . Anyone who wants to not only lie on the beach and have a cultural rest on Golden Sands, systematically attending excursions, but also hang out recklessly in the brightest and noisiest place in the resort - you are here !!! ! Shipka is just super for young people who come to take a walk (I don’t recommend going to this hotel with children, as it is located in the very center of the street with entertainment, nightclubs, bars and restaurants that are open 24 hours a day). … More ▾ My friend and I rested this summer on Golden Sands in the Shipka hotel...

Shipka is just super for young people who come to take a walk (I don’t recommend going to this hotel with children, as it is located in the very center of the street with entertainment, nightclubs, bars and restaurants that are open 24 hours a day). There are a lot of establishments of a completely different nature around....all the clubs are just a stone's throw away or on a parallel street...... a lot of cafes, restaurants, bars and shops....If you are interested in vibrant nightlife (we probably didn’t sleep more than 2 hours a day, because they could not just bring themselves to leave this extravaganza and return to the room), you only here!!! ! The hotel itself is one of the earliest that were built on the Golden (but do not think that this makes it old and shabby)..... The hotel is clean, the rooms are excellent, the lobby is simply beautiful.... very cozy and beautiful.... just an excellent lobby bar with live music adjoins the hotel (we didn’t get out of there at all..... we just fell in love with the singer who sang there from 22.00 to 00.00)... The food is very good... It was always full full of everything, from pizza and all sorts of cuts and vegetables, ending with sweets, croissants and fruits (although there were always only watermelons and apricots from fruits)....The very room in which we ate (I can’t stand the word canteen, and even more so because you can’t really call it a dining room), very large, but standard....Another thing is that there are terraces where you can go out and enjoy breakfast and your favorite cup of coffee, right in the fresh air and with a beautiful view of the lobby bar and the street...
The room was cleaned every day and the maid was just a fairy (she was very disposed to us for some reason)))))))).... no matter how we come, everything is cleaned and washed))) The staff is also very hospitable and always smiling....I never remember a single person from the hotel, whether it be either a waiter or a receptionist who would try to show with his whole appearance how happy he was that we visited them))) and would not be sprayed for us at all parties trying to please..... I won’t say anything about animation for children - I wasn’t interested....
The rest - 2 pools (one really is up to my ankle even in the deepest places), tren. the hall and everything that you see in the description of the hotel is the absolute truth....The only negative (although it didn’t bother us at all) is the noise from the nearest bars, discos and the daily screams of the Germans who gather in herds to make a parade through the Party - street and yell in an inhuman voice, something barely reminiscent of the songs of the great and culturally educated country of Germany))))
There are a lot of young people in the hotel... There are very few children and, accordingly, there are very few children's cries. During all this time, not a single child bothered, despite the fact that we really went around all the Golden and all the hotels. where the children's din just stands from dawn to dusk (just in the evening the pools are closed and there is nowhere for children to yell... obviously they yell in the ears of their parents in the room))))....
I finally don’t have anything against children, it’s just that if you are young, and not a family with children, then this hotel is for you... I won’t say that it’s calm there, but on the contrary, life around is not that boiling, but simply pulls you out of context and a sense of time, when you don’t understand where is the night and where is the day, since the fiesta really goes on around the clock...
In general... for everyone who wants to have an unforgettable rest and for whom entertainment and the night noise of discos and bars are as much an integral part of the holiday as the beach (which, by the way, is very close... 200 meters) - you are here....Hotel corresponds to its 4 stars. . . )))) And we were not only not disappointed in the choice of the hotel, but we are so satisfied with it that we have already decided to go there next year))))) And finally, the Golden ones are just super! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
For entertainment in Bulgaria, there is nothing to look for another resort. . .
Trust me, I don't know exactly what I'm talking about.
Good luck to everyone and take more days for rest...
We had 2 weeks and we just sobbed on the way home, we didn't want to leave. . .
So I wanted to continue the sweet, stormy, all-consuming fiesta of the Goldens!!!!
Let's go on with the festival!! !

Who rested in this hotel or others, tell me what time breakfast is served. We arrive at 1400. That is, the breakfast will already be gone? Is it possible to transfer it somehow? Does Bulgaria have a lunch box system like in Turkey and Egypt?

How much do they cost, I have MTS and life. It may be cheaper to call from some cards, I need to call mobile phones and a landline phone.

Someone wrote that he took an international card with hryvnias with him and paid for it there, made an exchange at the bank. It seems to be more profitable and the exchange rate is higher
