Very nice design, recently renovated hotel in a very quiet part of the Golden Sands located on their northern tip, i.e. in a completely peaceful and holiday party style of young people untouched location. Ideal for families with small children or couples of any age who want to enjoy a quiet holiday and hear the sound of the sea in the evening (by the way, I definitely recommend paying for a room with a sea view on a higher floor, it's worth it). Also, the location of the hotel is absolutely ideal in terms of distance from the sea, as the hotel is located almost on the beach, or within walking distance of about 50 meters respectively. The staff is very kind and pleasant, the hotel is clean, a rich selection of food in the form of a buffet. Children's pool with several slides also for families with children is plus. Interesting surroundings, indented coastline, possibility of trips to, for example, Varna, the water park in Albena or the Aladzha monastery. The hotel can therefore be recommended to those who do not necessarily need to lie on the beach for the entire duration of their stay and welcome the opportunity to explore the interesting surroundings. We would love to return to the place again sometime.…

Everything was perfect. Very very good and varied food. The smiling, kind, sociable team. The gorgeous view.Club and activities for children from morning to evening, water parkand park. Themed parties on the beach or at the pool every evening. Clean, spacious and renovated rooms. The rooms are cleaned daily or once every 2 days (even if you do not request this). I was pleasantly impressed, so I went again after only 3 weeks, because I already missed it. It is a perfect hotel for families with children, but not only.

This was our second year staying in Sentido Marea and it was even better then the first one. We are two adults with a child of 3 and a baby of 19 months. Couple of key points why we like this hotel: 1. It is very clean. 2. The food was absolutely amazing and there is a lot of variety. Shout-out to Rossen the head chef. Definitely an improvement when it comes to the food taste. 3. Staff is friendly and helpful. 4. The views from the balcony are breathtaking. 5. There is also a private parking, that one has to be paid separately though. 6. The beach is also in a good condition. The umbrellas can be improved though, but they do the job for now. Overall I would definitely recommend this hotel and we are considering to come back next year.

My family holiday at Senrido Marea hotel in Golden sand resort was incredible and beyond my expectations. We chose the hotel based on the good reviews online. The first thing that I've noticed was the personal replies from the management. I have never seen that before and for me was a sign that management was reading every customer review and cares about every opinion. Our amazing holiday has started from the cheerful receptionists, then the lovely bellboy, cleaner, managers, bar staff, chef ect. Customer service was exceptional with attention to detail and with personal attitude to each client. We've recieved an hand written invitation card for Gala dinner and I believe each room has received this too. If we are talking about the food and drinks - top quality. The food was varied and fresh, the drinks was exported and local. Every room got two sun lounges and parasol on the beach or on the pool. The beach was very clean infront of the hotel. The animation tim did a great job. We got pink theme beach party one of the nights. We have tried the A la cart restaurant - designed like traditional Bulgarian and the food was very delicious traditional Bulgarian cuisine. We also have tried the Beach restautant, located on the beach with stunning sea view and amazing food. Everything included in our Ultra All inclusive packet. I did not mention that the mini bar in the room was restocked every day with bottled still water, exported beer, Pepsi and Mirinda cans. I have no words to say how fantastic was our vacation and how thankful I am of the great team of the hotel. All of them have made me very proud that I am Bulgarian and in Bulgaria we can offer 5 star quality service. Finally, for people reading this review wish them to go and experience everything that I' ve said and many more that I did not, because It was 7 days full of joy, care, relax and happiness.…

Strongly recommending this hotel. The room we stayed in looks like in the presentation, the hotel is in a quiet area of the resort, is near the beach, with sunbeds provided, with a children's pool on the beach, excellent food and drinks, clean place, friendly and well trained staff. I liked that from the moment we checked in until we left, the staff was smiling, asking if you need anything and looking for solutions to your needs. So, I warmly recommend this hotel.

Grifid Hotel Marea! It is perfect for a stay with the family or just as a couple! We have stayed at this hotel 6 times in the last two years and we will do our best to come back! Starting with the reservation platform, the reception, the parking, the rooms, the restaurants, the beach and the pool, everything is superlative. The reservation can be made extremely easily directly on the website! And the offers are not to be neglected either, especially if you subscribe to the newsletter. The reception is very proactive! I don't think we ever had to wait more than a few minutes and be careful, they will never forget to greet you and smile at you! The rooms are great! I almost always stayed with a large view, only once I had a room with a park view. The sea is gorgeous! beach, waves, sunrise, sun, everything you could want from a beach vacation! The cleanliness and quality of the rooms is wow! Maybe the cosmetics in the bathroom should be diversified a bit more and maybe some sweets in the fridge, but that's ok. The a la carte restaurant is a 100% Bulgarian culinary experience. It's worth it! The main restaurant is beautiful, big, elegant and tidy! The food! Yes! The most discussed and contested food is always perfect. The menu covers all types of diets and tastes! The menu is for all family members and is also very tasty. Congratulations The beach is right in front of the hotel. You are actually staying on the beach! Quite roomy and even if sometimes there are many sunbeds reserved by desperate tourists, the staff on the beach always finds you a place and sunbeds for the whole family regardless of the time you go to the beach. This strategy should be found in other hotels as well! The bar on the beach is strong! Always beat the sun and the heat! True fighters against the forces of nature and the boundless thirst of tourists! The pools are great! Especially the place for the little ones and the very little ones, located right on the beach and next to the mini club. The little ones can spend the day together with the animation team from the miniclub and it will be perfect for the whole family. The indoor swimming pool and the wellness center surprise the most. At least out of curiosity, go down there and you will understand! Especially if you want to spend a few hours as a couple. Do I also tell you that sometimes the parking is free? Yes! May! But even if it is not, you will be directed to the large parking lot or you will be offered a parking space behind the hotel and your car will be safe.…
