The deepest delusion of all those who go on vacation: when I arrive, I will lie on the beach and swim in the sea, forgetting about all worldly affairs and other events. As a rule, such a mood is enough for two or three days, and then the monotony of the sea begins to annoy, the neighbors on the beach annoy, the unobtrusive utility service gets annoying. There are, of course, options: a paid beach with a set of VIP services, a separate corner behind a reed fence. But this is not affordable for everyone.
But it turns out that there are options, I was convinced of this when I visited near Odessa in the village of Zatoka located along the sea. This resort place has long been known for the trade union recreation centers of various enterprises, consisting, as a rule, of plywood houses, a canteen under an awning and a common shower under a tap. Local residents rented corners, sheds, cots and hammocks to the so-called "wild" tourists, so to speak - not union members.
But the phenomenon is not quite, let's say, new, but worthy of attention - a private boarding house. It seems to combine a hotel room, separate housing with all amenities, and its own corner of the beach. There are, of course, different levels of service here, but when I got to Villa Diana, I was convinced that this is what the average vacationer needs. First, - the price. Including food and other services, it is no more expensive than an average room in an average hotel. But the most important thing is that you don’t have to go to the beach, it is under your window. From any hotel to the beach you will have to drive, walk, climb the slopes or make your way through the crowds of vacationers. Such a road back kills the whole effect of being at sea: you are again sweaty, dusty and tired. And then - they got up from the trestle bed, and already in place.
Believe me, it's very important not to know what the local jargon means: the second row from the sea, "not far from the sea", "the sea is very close", behind the railway embankment, etc. And a completely different feeling when you are not in a catering canteen with a lot of people and out of breath waitresses, and, say, you can warn that you will come later.
You can, of course, still list the advantages of the villa, but it's better to see and feel everything yourself. Summer is still in full swing. So this new type of recreation is worth paying attention to, take a closer look.
