We rested in this hotel from 9 to 23 September 2012. We were not very lucky with the weather. Of the 15 days of rest, 6-7 were cloudy and rainy days. The sea was very stormy, the rescuers hung out a red flag on the beach and drove everyone out of the sea. In general, we managed to swim normally for 4-5 days! The weather let us down and spoiled our holiday a bit. About the hotel. We specifically chose a quiet place to relax and the location of the hotel corresponds to this. The hotel is located on the territory of the national reserve and therefore is far from other settlements. The nearest hotel "Saint Thomas" is a kilometer walk along the road along the sea. Our hotel, Arkutino Resort, is located on a mountain, by the sea, a small town of three-story houses, in the style of a "chalet". The hotel is fairly new, I think this is its third season. The territory is not very large, but everything is cozy and beautiful, there are swimming pools for adults and children, three bars, two restaurants (one is paid). There is even a small chapel and a sports ground on the territory of the hotel. . The food in the restaurant was not as varied as in Turkey, but always of high quality and tasty, there were fresh vegetables, always meat, chicken in various versions, stewed vegetables, fish. From drinks, good red and white wine, beer, strong drinks were not taken. From fruits, peaches, nectarines, watermelons, oranges, sweets. In between lunch and dinner, they made pizza, sausages, and grilled liver. Everyone was full and happy. There were already few vacationers in September: young families with small children, mothers with children, elderly people. Mostly they were Bulgarians, Germans, Romanians and 20 percent Russians. Animation at this time was no longer carried out, so everyone had fun themselves as best they could. And our hotel guide from Alfa-Service did not appear at all!! ! The hotel staff is freshly frozen, they would have an internship in Turkey or Egypt, at least for a month! In general, Bulgarians are very friendly people. We went on vacation with a group of 4 people: me, my wife and our friends. In bad weather, we rented a car (Opel Zafira 50 euros per day) for two days and drove to nearby cities. Sozopol is 10-12 kilometers away, worth seeing. A beautiful promenade with old cobbled narrow streets and Nessebar 70-75 kilometers from us. Also an interesting city. 9 hiking routes have been developed in the reserve, of which we went 7, one route on a boat along the Ropotamo River (costs 8 leva), we saw many interesting birds and even a wild boar went to the river for a drink. Two hundred meters from the hotel, if you cross the road, there is an observation deck on the lake. There grow white water lilies, fearless swans, water turtles, herons. The road from the hotel to the sea ran along a wooden deck through the sand dunes for about 350 meters. The places are unusually beautiful. White sand lilies grow on the dunes, small lizards run! The beach is sandy, a large coastal strip. The sea is very beautiful, lively, a lot of fish, mussels, rapans, crabs. We went swimming to the rocks from our beach to the right of 700 meters, swam with masks. And in general, when the weather allowed, we swam a lot. The sea is clean, we swam very far and the bottom was visible, fantastic, we met huge jellyfish. Summary. Recreation for those who are tired of the hustle and bustle and want to recuperate, breathe in the sea air, enjoy the nature of the reserve, while you will need to rely on your own strength in terms of entertainment.
