To be honest, after negative reviews on the Internet, I was afraid to go: I was scared by a rotavirus infection, dirty dishes, a poor menu, etc. But you need to go to any country in a good mood, with the expectation of something new, unusual, then everything will be OK ! Arrived in the evening, settled quickly, even managed to have dinner and explore the surroundings. The territory is large, a lot of greenery, sandy beach. In the complex with the hotel "Rubin" were: "Swan", "Dolphin", "Dolphin-Marina" and five-star "Varna". All were located about a hundred meters from each other, so that it was possible to use the services of these hotels for free. Unlike other resorts, beach umbrellas, sunbeds, towels - everything is free. In the hotel "Varna" you can go to Italian, oriental, barbecue - restaurants for free (except for wine), you just need to sign up for dinner in advance before 14.00 at the hotel "Dolphin". "Rubin" liked the fact that all rooms overlook the sea, the rooms are clean, cleaned every day, towels are also changed every day, but bed linen was changed 2 times in 11 days. When you get to your room, check the toilet, sink and shower immediately. . My sink pipe and shower stall were leaking. The leak at the pipe was immediately eliminated (record at the reception), but the shower stall was never repaired. The extractor in the toilet and the air conditioner worked fine. They fed like everywhere else: meat, fish, sausages, french fries, scrambled eggs, vegetables, fruits, sweets - everything was there. Dirty dishes did not notice, cleaned from the tables quickly. Wine in barrels (red, white) poured themselves, stronger drinks at the bar (right there in the restaurant). The bar was also on the beach, so we didn't feel thirsty or hungry. There were enough sun loungers, towels, umbrellas (it was the end of May - the beginning of June) it was possible not to take it in the morning, people were pulling up by 10.00. or 2 times, but it was warm, although the water is cool, but clean. What about the beach, it's not very clean. Vacationers themselves are to blame: they throw cigarette butts, cups, straws. For the elderly, the weather is just right: not hot, not cold. It's good to go on excursions. I went to Balchik, Kaliakra - I liked it very much and to Evksinograd - too. Many thanks to the tour guide Violetta Georgievna Nikolova for unforgettable excursions and for Russian songs performed by her on the bus. If there is an opportunity, go with her (company "Venera"), you will not regret it. In general, I had a good rest, got a tan, took a lot of beautiful photos. But here's one thing I didn't like. And as always on the last day! The day before I looked at the departure time of the plane: everything coincided with the itinerary receipt: 20.00 pm. The next day I go from the beach, at 11.05 to rent a room and accidentally looked into the folder with information about the departure. And what do I see! The departure time was changed to 14.20, the bus will arrive at 12.00. Can you imagine what happened to me! It's good that I partially collected things from the evening. But thank God, I managed to do everything, although I was very nervous. The representative of the company TUI VKO - Vasily in the hotel "Rubin" did not even verbally warn about the change. I had to look for and specify the departure date again. Although such an incident happened to me, I am very grateful to the tour. agent TUI VKO vg. Ivanovo Bochkova Anya for her polite attitude and desire to help me find a country of visit and a suitable hotel for me. Thanks to her, I had a good rest and brought a lot of impressions from Bulgaria. Bulgaria is the most peaceful country now: no floods, tsunamis, barricades, rallies and demonstrations. So just go and relax, I'm sure you'll enjoy everything. No wonder so many foreigners have a rest: Germans, Romanians, Moldavians, Ukrainians. There are few Russians. You need to know English to communicate. Young Bulgarians do not know Russian well. Good luck!
