I will try to objectively state all the pros and cons (although any minus is considered a plus for someone and vice versa).
1) A large green area of ​ ​ the hotel, the third line is a fairy tale for lovers of a calm and measured rest. Quiet, calm. True, the road from the beach to the hotel is a climb up the stairs. For me it was a plus (worked up an appetite), and for my husband it was a minus (because he dragged his daughter on him, who categorically refused to walk)
2) Many pools for every taste, constant music and animation by the pools, there is a small pool with a jacuzzi. There are a lot of people (especially children), but it is still possible to find sunbeds.

3) Room cleaning is not cleaning (I don’t clean my house like that), not quite white towels and bed linen, the TV broke down on the second day, they fixed it only on the fourth. And so the room is quite decent, simple and comfortable. (We had a room in Orchid Park, second floor, sea view). By the way, do not take the first floors in the orchid park (they are some kind of semi-basement).
4) Food - a solid four. True, there were no cereals for breakfast, but you won’t stay hungry (there was meat, chicken, and fish). Fruit, of course, not very much. But pastries - chic !! ! Regarding drinks - this is UPI. And where, tell me, not yupi? In all hotels with drinks, this is the case. But in the Orchid there were compotes with berries. We diluted them with water (otherwise they were very thick and sweet) and it turned out tasty and healthy.
So everything is fine with the food, but with the service - strained. Cups - with a dark coating of tea, and plates - normal, clean. Yes, and tables, of course, are not enough + queues for pancakes, as in all other hotels.
5) The beach is huge, clean, the sea is transparent, crabs rush along the bottom. True, it’s better not to go to the free Orchid Beach, but to pay for umbrellas and sun loungers and relax in an almost deserted place (there are always crowds where it’s free, and where it’s paid, it’s empty. Umbrellas and sun loungers were 7 leva).
6) there is a lot of entertainment at the resort, you can take a train to the hotel, but this is paid. but the shuttle bus delivers vacationers from the beach to hotels and vice versa for free. although to be honest, it will be faster on foot, because the orchid, in my opinion, is the last one on the route.
7) in general, the stay was good, but we will not go there again.
