Hotel Sol Nessebar Mare, as for Bulgaria is very cool. Stayed with my wife for 11 days. Works on the ALLINCL system. The staff is friendly. The rooms are spacious and cleaned every day. Everywhere wifi! They feed well. The choice of food is simply colossal. Noticed some flaws. For example...Juices and milk are diluted by at least 50% Dishes in the restaurant are poorly washed. Lots of broken cups. I do not advise you to call from the reception or the number to ANY phone numbers, except for internal ones in the hotel. For example, I called a mobile to Ukraine. In the receiver I heard only a buzzer, they tried to bill for 2 leva. A little, but for figs ...Also an unpleasant aftertaste. Separately, I would like to warn Euros or dollars do not change at the hotel. In their exchangers, the rate is VERY small. In the city, for example, in Nessebar or Burgas for 1 Euro you will get 1.95 leva, and in a hotel 1.80! Alcohol in Sol Nessebar Mare on a five-point system for 3 plus. Every day new cocktails...The most delicious one we liked was "ANGEL KIIS".
And so at your disposal: brandy, tequila, whiskey, brandy, wine, beer. Here is a paradise for children. Swimming pools, slides, sweets, fruits, children's animation, the sea...For young people who don't have children, it's boring there...Although...There is live music, animation every night. We went for walks in the city. There are a lot of restaurants, a couple of museums. The history of the city of Nessebar and its twin Sozopol is very interesting! ! ! There are clubs in the new Nessebar. We took excursions from the host country...OTSTOY...We went to the RAPOTAMO river...They say that this is the Bulgarian jungle....HORROR...STAKH...In Ukraine there are such jungles in every forest belt. The city of Bugragas, where we also went as part of the tour, resembles Berdyansk in the 80s. Any excursions can be bought a little cheaper in New Nessebar on Khan Krum Street. There are stalls there. Bulgarians basically don't bargain...That's why it won't work to buy souvenirs cheaper. We wanted to go to Istanbul...From Nessebar it takes 12 hours to go there, the same time back.
My wife and I decided that it was not worth it. two days just fly out + fatigue ...


And about the sea ...Indeed, in Bulgaria it is clean, in the Crimea there is no such clear water in the Black Sea. Sunbeds on the municipal beach are paid, BUT ...SOL NESSEBER has its own beach, where the sunbeds are "ball-shaped", a bar a couple of meters away! ! !

And now about the main thing! We bought a ticket in Kyiv from Royal Tour. The office is nothing. All are welcoming. But the tour operator was shoved into us - "News Travel"! ! ! It's just terrible ...People, if you want to save your nerves, time and money, do not try to get involved with these charlatans. Their organization of moving is just awful!! ! ! ! Their buses went to Bulgaria for 36 hours, when the buses of other tour operators arrived in 20 hours. There is no guide in the cabin, only two uneducated Bulgarian drivers. They hardly speak Russian. We stopped the bus 4 times during the entire trip. They didn't even offer coffee and tea. When we stopped, we were not told for how long.

They themselves went to eat, and told people not to disperse from the bus. The TV inside the bus did not work. In general, the road there from "News Travel" turned out to be "fun". Well, okay, it would be possible to push everything onto the drivers, but at the border they tell us: "the bus brings people to the city, and organize the transfer to the hotels yourself. " This is in view of the fact that it was written in the vouchers that the transfer is included. We drove to Nessebar, the drivers took us to Sunny Beach and left us, they say, further on their own. When 10 people raised a howl and began to call their travel agencies, then the operator "News Travel" raised their ass and agreed with the host on the transfer. Our tour company was constantly interested in the state of our affairs. Royal Tour in this regard, well done. The worries of "News Travel" fell on their shoulders! ! ! Some tourists from other tour companies in general "News Travel" forgot to pick up from hotels. And the tourists were forced to live at the reception for more than a day. In short, they are dull.
The mood was spoiled for everyone in the first days. Buses at "News Travel" is a separate conversation. To call them comfortable, the tongue does not turn! ! ! The return trip was even worse. "News Travel" - DOES NOT RESPECT ITS TOURISTS. BE CAREFUL!
