Чудесный отдых Wonderful holiday

I will also share my impressions : ).
We went directly to Nessebar, because we really liked the Old Town, we used to come here on excursions and we wanted to get to know the city better.
The hotel was chosen from those where there were places left, although they planned "Arsen" (and now I do not regret that I did not get there).

The road to Bulgaria this time was badly transferred. Queues at customs (even at the Romania-Bulgaria border! ), the presence of restless strangers on the bus and the whims of our own did their dark work and we got to Nessebar after an 18-hour journey, already at 11 am, incredibly tired, exhausted physically and mentally. We knew that the check-in was after 14 and anticipated a couple more hours of waiting, but then miracles began! : ) The administrator Vanya, with a radiant smile, immediately said that the room was ready and gave us key cards. The porter immediately picked up the heavy suitcase and escorted him to the room, pointing out where he was. And in the room, spacious and very comfortable, the same shower, snow-white towels, bathrobes and even white slippers were waiting : ). After a shower, invigorated and refreshed, we drank a cup of coffee, since everything we needed was in the room and we felt that we could live on.
In such heat, they did not dare to go to the sea, they climbed to the pool on the 6th floor. We swam a little and "sunbathed" under umbrellas, it was very hot. And closer to 5 we went to the southern beach, which turned out to be not far away - only 5 minutes walk along Father Paisia ​ ​ Street and further between the Mirage and Oasis hotels. Pure golden sand, clear azure sea, shallow, calm and warm, could not overshadow even all these paid areas with sunbeds and umbrellas. We just spread our beach mats along the surf line and did not even worry about the contents of the bags (everything in plain sight! ), when we all went swimming together. The cost of sun loungers and umbrellas - 7-10 leva, as a rule, the rows closest to the sea were occupied, the rest were empty. Further along the beach to the south there is an area with only umbrellas, then there is a free area.
In the building next to the hotel there is a supermarket "Mladost", where they often bought water, delicious Bulgarian sweets, and everything you need. People have already talked about prices : ). On the way to the beach there are many street sales - all beach equipment, including umbrellas, several souvenir stands, prices are lower than in the Old Town. In general, it is worth walking along the neighboring streets, you can find a bazaar, and household stores, and shops with souvenirs, shoes, clothes, Bulgarian cosmetics - based on rose oil and much more. And why is there a whole street of cafe-cakes (Khan Krum street)! For every taste and budget : ).
By the way, the room key card is put into an envelope, there is a map of the New City printed inside so that they do not wander.
Money was changed at Edelweiss Street (the euro exchange rate is 1:1.94 Bulgarian leva), cafes, restaurants, pizzerias on every corner, often a menu with prices on a stand at the entrance, you can familiarize yourself in advance. The food is delicious, the portions are big.

And what a joy it was to return to our cool, cozy room after the heat of the street!
The beds are wide, the linen is snow-white, the climate control maintained the set temperature, the staff is sympathetic and smiling, they cleaned well, the towels were changed every day, the bed - once every 4 days, and when we started tipping the cleaning lady, returning, we found whole art compositions from towels on the beds.
Yes, more. After taking a shower, a puddle appeared on the floor - the sewage system could not cope, but, as I noticed, this is a disease of many hotels with showers in the rooms. We informed the cleaning lady and the receptionist, as a result they gave us an extra towel for the legs - to lay on the floor.
The breakfast buffet was average, although a bit repetitive. We didn't go hungry : ). Fruits - oranges and watermelons. Coffee machine - espresso, mochachino, cappuccino and hot chocolate for the kids. Cucumbers, tomatoes, cheese, cheese, a couple of types of sausage cuts, eggs - fried eggs, boiled, scrambled eggs, bread fried in an egg, fried sausages a couple of types, potato balls or spaghetti, muesli, chocolate balls, corn flakes, 5-6 types of cakes and baking, black, green, herbal tea. There is a toaster.
But the biggest joy was the turquoise Bulgarian sea. Even on a stormy day (on the beach, lifeguards hang out a red flag and whistle to drive everyone out of the water who goes further than 10 meters : )), in white foam, it remained transparent. Well, do not compare with Ukrainian sandy beaches!
Coming to the beach, we quickly dumped things, laid our rugs (rather according to tradition) and just didn’t get out of the water for a couple of hours! The little ones caught crabs in buckets (then they were sure to let them out), chased the fish and simply basked in the gentle waves. In order to swim normally, I had to swim 100 meters from the shore, and even there, at a depth of 3-4 meters, pebbles and shells were clearly visible at the bottom.

And in the evenings, already after 6, we went for a walk in the Old City. But that's a completely different story : ).
