Hello! Rest in the Royal Castle 5 * hotel in the town of Elenite turned out to be excellent! When even at home they chose a place of rest, numerous relatives dissuaded them from spending their holidays in Bulgaria at all, motivating them by the fact that the country is backward and why should we return to the USSR. Having listened to the position of relatives and friends, I decided to approach the choice of a hotel more carefully. Indeed, after looking at a large number of photos and reviews, I was finally convinced that they were right. The choice was between Elenite and the oldest resort in Bulgaria - St. Constantine and Elena. . . We met at Burgas airport, on the way to Elenite we stopped in Pomorie (complete USSR), in fact, in Sunny Beach itself (the hotel is on the hotel, the streets are dirty, there is rubbish all around, the grass is scorched by the sun, the people are dark, the hotel territories are tiny, from the bus window open pictures of vacationers by the pools) and St. Vlas (a more comfortable place compared to the previous ones). The bus brought us to the door of the hotel. We waited for the room for a couple of hours, during which time we got to know the hotel and the staff a little. The hotel is chic everywhere natural materials, cleanliness, beauty. The territory of the hotel is very well-groomed, green, palm trees are everywhere, fountains, many places for outdoor recreation and in the hotel itself. The outdoor pool is beautiful, but the water is very cold. In the evening, multi-colored illumination. The room is large and comfortable with a balcony. The room has a capsule coffee machine, a large TV, Wi-Fi, great movies on YouTube were watched without problems, a large soft bed. The indoor pool is awesome: large, illuminated, there is music under the water, the water is warm, you can also go to the sauna there. The interior is beautiful, I did not go to the spa. At the beginning of September, the number of vacationers decreased markedly. Sometimes it seemed that we were alone in the whole castle! The service is generally good. The room was cleaned daily. Capsules and vials, paper were replenished as they were spent. In general, I think when maintenance is carried out regularly and at the same time the staff does not catch the eye, this is aerobatics. Of course, because we came to rest, and not to jump over the mops of vacuum cleaners and fitters, and even more so to control their work. . . for our money. . . The food is normal, there is meat and fruits, vegetables, sausages, cheeses, fish, sweets, yes, everything is there. Just the same thing every day. Waiters would do well to better understand the desires of vacationers. In a slightly non-standard situation, they do not understand what you want from them, or they pretend. The territory is huge, there are many paths, a pavilion with peacocks, there are no fences between the hotels, you can go to any hotel, there are many exchangers. There is a supermarket, many shops, a clothing market, prices for souvenirs are on average the same in comparison with other resorts, a huge water park, but the water there was also cold. The sea is different every day. . . sometimes it’s warm, clean, sometimes it’s covered with mud, sometimes it’s stormy, the bottom is sand with pebbles. The beach is sandy, there are a lot of sunbeds, there are lifeguards, they collected garbage (for vacationers, they are too lazy to throw their bulls into numerous trash cans). The weather is fine, in the morning there was a light rain. The representative of the meeting party talked to us the next day and familiarized us with the rules for a comfortable stay, with numerous excursions, with a schedule of where and at what time she can be found by phone. Tours were not taken. We went to Nessebar on our own. I certainly liked the town. . Also on the territory of Elenite there is a stop, you can take a bus or minibus to Sunny Beach and Nessebar. In general, all conditions are created for a comfortable stay. My family was very pleased. I liked everything very much. Until now, we remember the last vacation with tenderness and warmth. I can't say anything about facilities for families with children. But there were many vacationers with kids and even kids. Do not take it as anti-advertising, but reviews about neighboring hotels are not very flattering. They didn’t start special conversations, but on the beach, discussions about the service of other hotels included in the Victoria Club in Elenite had to be involuntarily listened to. They were dissatisfied. But I really don't know how. And they closed already in the first decade of September. I can safely recommend a holiday in Elenite to those who want a measured, relaxing holiday. I hope my review will help you make your choice. I wish you a good rest, love each other and enjoy every minute.
