замечательный отдых в Болгарии wonderful holiday in Bulgaria

The hotel is very nice. A small hotel with 20 rooms. From a series of so-called family hotels. Located between the village of Ravda and Nessebar. It takes about 20 minutes to walk to Nessebar. The hotel is located right on the beach - you just need to go down the stairs and pick delicious plums from the tree growing near the stairs : ) The beach is sandy. At the expense of sun loungers and umbrellas - I saw, but we did not take them: it was very pleasant on the sand. We swam and sunbathed there only 2 times. The rest of the time we tried various beaches closer to Nessebar, including in the Sunny Beach resort itself, or spent time on excursions. It is pleasant to walk along the coast: sometimes hills overgrown with cypresses and various conifers, where it is very tasty and easy to breathe, sometimes some dunes. In general, we enjoyed walking along the coast between the hotel and Nessebar.
The hotel is located next to a large 4-5 star IFA complex, there is a nice playground for children and large pools with water slides - entry is open to everyone!
Everything in the hotel is neat and clean. The room has air conditioning, TV, refrigerator with a bar. The room, the restaurant downstairs, and the hotel itself are cozy. Beautiful flowers grow on the balcony. Restaurant tables at the hotel are located near the pool. It was not forbidden to swim in the pool in the evening, at night. It was quiet. Only the sea was noisy : )

On the ground floor there are several computers with cheap internet. Somewhere there is billiards. There are several exercise machines in the basement.
The staff is friendly. Especially in the restaurant downstairs : ) Due to the fact that the hotel is small, each tourist has a special exclusive attitude. And, perhaps, this is generally accepted in Bulgaria - I didn’t check it : ) Breakfast was not included in the price. We had breakfast, often lunch and dinner at the restaurant at the hotel. The food was very delicious. Inexpensive. The portions were huge - out of habit they each took a salad for themselves, although one was enough for 2-3 people. The waitress alone was very friendly and always tried to help: both with the order and with any questions related to the hotel. One day we decided to ask where we could wash our clothes. She ran to the reception, where she raised everyone's ears, called the maid. As a result, the maid replaced all our towels and bed linen after hours, took our clothes, and returned the washed one the next day, and even refused to tip! : )
This waitress was generously tipped. In general, we felt very cordial and hospitable.
Of the minuses, the only thing was that a girl was sometimes on duty at the reception, who only spoke Bulgarian with us. Moreover, it was strange that she did not understand us (although usually Bulgarians understand Russians). It turned out that, in general, Bulgarian is not her native language : )
Yes, this hotel was sold to us as two stars plus. Although they have a three-star certificate hanging inside. I’ll say for sure that these are three stars for a five plus! There are also four stars, although more luxurious, but not so cozy.
I don't know how it is in this hotel now. We went in 2006, which was the second season the hotel was open - everything was new and shiny, including the staff : )
In general, we really liked it in Bulgaria: Russians are very welcome everywhere. Elderly people eagerly recall the old days, someone immediately begins to speak Russian. Bulgarian youth is also friendly.

We enjoyed and repeatedly walked along the beaches, along the old Nessebar. We took a yacht picnic excursion. We really liked the sightseeing two-day tour of Bulgaria: Plovdiv-Bansko-Rila Monastery-Sofia. The guide's name was Dimo ​ ​ - he was very interesting and told us a lot about Bulgaria. We went to the water park near Sunny Beach.
