The rooms are big and nice decorated, modern and clean, with nice balcony. Another big plus was the bar, actualy three bars, with a... More

First of all I will mention that is my 7'th vacation on bulgarian seaside (6 of it's on 4 stars and one on 5 stars), but it's the very first time when I struggled to feed the children. All 3 meals contains pastas (about 30% of all food). Cheap sausage on the morning, a lot of frozen vegetables, only minced... More

Very good service. In resturants always be able to find something tasty for me. New rooms with great sea view. In evening at the hotel are quiet, it is a bit away from the center of Golden Sands, but it is good if you want quiet relaxation. The sea is 200-300m, if the hotel be closer to the sea it... More

This is a good jotel, but only a hotel. Food and service, amayzing. The rooms very big, nice terrace. The pool area is small, pool chairs were occupied in the morning with towels and, sincerily, otherwise you could not find a chair later. There is no private beach for the hotel, this I consider a minus. Minidisco was just 30... More

We have chosen this hotel because it is a new hotel from a known hotel chain and due to the 25% reduction practiced by most travel agencies. We traveled by car and we arrived at 11 (accommodation is at 14). The hotel is located at the southern edge of the resort, in the quiet area. We already knew that there... More

This was really a great trip, the hotel is brand new and you can tell by looking at it! The lobby is huge and impressive, the All-Inclusive deal is really worth it: you can stop in at any of the 3-4 bars around the hotel for a nice cold drink. The rooms were all very clean, spacious, and comfortable. The... More
