ранняя холодная осень 2013 г. early cold autumn 2013

Rested with a child of 5 years, we are from Kyiv. Travel agent SanSvit, there are no comments to the travel agent, we will cooperate in the future. Regarding rest in general. It’s not my first time in Bulgaria, it’s my first time in Albena, I liked the resort, although everything is expensive, literally everything - any entertainment, souvenirs, towels, but this is normal for a resort town. This is a resort for families with children and the elderly, so there are really a lot of elderly Germans and families with small children. But the Nona hotel is not in Albena itself, but, as it were, aside, if you look from the sea, then to the right of Albena are mountains, and to the left is the Baltata reserve and on the shore of 6 old hotels, I won’t say anything about others, but Nona is renovated, beds, mattresses , plumbing - everything is in order. In general, the hotel pulls on its solid 3 no more. Cons - there are no pools of their own, you can walk and use the pools in the neighboring Elitsa hotel, use their bar during the day, take pizza and ice cream there. There is also children's animation. The advantage of the hotel is that it stands on the very shore, you literally go out and step on the shore, there are no steps, passages to the sea, and plus, for me, the fact that the hotel is located in a calm, secluded place can be said. Food for a solid four stars, no less, Someone doesn’t like something, a matter of taste and personal habits, but no one will remain hungry and there is plenty to choose from. The manager of the hotel is a very pleasant woman, I don’t remember her name, she is a Bulgarian, already of mature age, short, dark, prefers to wear dark clothes. She tried and solved the questions that arose professionally. The main disadvantage was the weather, and this is not an exceptional year, I spoke with the Bulgarians, such weather during this period is normal for Bulgaria. We arrived on August 30, and the evenings were just cold, even in a jacket it was cold, and their evening began after 5 pm, it was also cool in the morning. After about 3 days, a cool wind begins to blow from the sea, clouds come in and everything is cold and so every day, if there is no rain. This is good weather for this period. It must be understood that Albena is northern Bulgaria, perhaps closer to Turkey and warmer, but not more than 2 degrees. The sea was warm, especially when we first arrived, but a cold wind begins to blow from the sea and there is no heat. I personally and not only had my neck blown out, I had to sit down there on antibiotics, wrap my neck with something, I couldn’t swim at all. My opinion is that it is necessary to take medicines on the road, but we all have honey. insurance, but who needs extra trouble with reimbursement later, and even with a doctor's call. My children and not only had some kind of intestinal virus - I vomited all night and morning, it’s not clear from what, then, of course, I slept all day from weakness. Smecta, Loperamide, for colds, runny nose, antibiotics, band-aid, brilliant green, analgesics and ate something from drugs, from excessive sun, you need to take it with you so as not to have unnecessary problems.
I want to go to Albena again, and it is to these hotels located in the distance, but perhaps to Gergana, there are 4 stars, they have their own pools, children's animation. But only in the period from June 15 to August 25, all the same, at least I want warmth, sun, and not antibiotics to drink and wrap myself in sweaters.
Yes, I also want to say that in Albena there is a system of encouraging or attracting customers, when for each full week of stay at the resort you are entitled to one lunch and one dinner at another restaurant in the resort. Guides at the meeting prefer not to talk about it. At the reception there is a folder with a list of restaurants where you can go. I would say, it’s worth having lunch in a French restaurant, it is located in the highest building of the resort on the 17th floor, there is also a panoramic platform there, and to dine in a Mexican one, in the evenings a Mexican ensemble performs there, in national costumes, it’s interesting. It is not worth going to the European one at all. In general, in the restaurants themselves, guests who come according to this system are not liked, the attitude towards them is appropriate. It turns out that you do not pay money, although they have already been paid at the restaurant of your hotel, but this has nothing to do with the restaurant you came to. You will be put in the worst place and the attitude will be one that will spoil or spoil this visit. This is clearly noticeable and not pleasant. So to go or not is the question.

If anyone has questions, I'll be happy to answer.
