Rested at the Costa Bulgara hotel from August 16 to August 26.2013. I booked the Coral Hotel in Sozopol two weeks before the trip, which is located directly in the city itself, but it was not confirmed and they called me on the phone and offered an alternative hotel to the one I was trying to book, I was just busy at work and didn’t look reviews on the phone agreed to book this hotel and oddly enough the next day I got a call from a tour company and was told that the hotel was confirmed, this alerted me because I’m not going to Bulgaria for the first time and hotels in August were never confirmed the first time . From Peter the plane took off at 7-00 o'clock. we arrived in Burgas at about 11 o'clock local time by bus, we took people to a couple of hotels in Burgas and went to Costa Bulgara when we drove through Chernomorets, there were several hotels in the wilderness, but we drove further along the road and after 1.5 km I saw my hotel Costa Bulgara and I was horrified by what I saw, the hotel is located in complete wilderness at a distance of 2 km from. Chernomorets, having arrived at the hotel in the region of 12-30 minutes, I was told that the check-in was at 14 o’clock and I spent this time at the reception, after they showed me the room, I checked in and changed clothes and decided to go to the sea, the hotel is located at a distance of 250-300 meters from the sea on a dusty rural road, another building is being built on the territory of the hotel, but it looks like it has become a long-term construction covered with a net and surrounded by a fence of reeds. And the next day, returning from the sea at about 18:00 before reaching the hotel, I saw a snake that stormed this reed fence, I was pleasantly surprised that snakes are also found here. Another disappointment was that there is simply nowhere to go for a walk here in the evening due to the fact that the hotel is located in an open field near the sea. I have never rested in such a wilderness, since the nearest center of civilization, the city of Chernomorets, is located 2 km from the hotel. The beach is sandy, more or less clean, a lot of algae. On the second day I decided to take a trip to Chernomorets. Walking 2 km, I covered in about 20 minutes. True, in the heat it is not very comfortable to stomp on foot. And when you walk along the road there is a chance to get hit by a car, because the Bulgarians are still those riders. There is no pedestrian zone, and the road is two-lane and very narrow, in order for two cars to pass, you need to pull over to the side of the road. By the way, in order to get from the hotel to Sozopol or Burgas, you must first get to Chernomorets on foot. . From Chernomorets buses run to Burgas and Sozopol almost every 20-30 minutes. In the description of the hotel, having already arrived home, I saw about regular buses to Sozopol from the hotel, there was nothing like this during my vacation, it is likely that there is still none. Summing up: We can say that I didn’t have such a terrible vacation in the wilderness, I couldn’t wait until 10 days were over. (paid in the amount of 40 thousand rubles). Yes, I want to add that this hotel is practically not visited by Russian tourists, I was alone in the hotel, even with a word they would exchange words with anyone, but I concluded that we are very fond of the Bulgarians. The next year will have to change the travel agency.
