People come here primarily for mud therapy. The resort became famous for its 7-kilometer promenade, covered with dark and in some places even black sand.

• Martinez;

The time for holidays and holidays will begin soon. It is necessary to think in advance about how and where to carry them out maximum benefit. The best resorts for families with children are very close. Sunny Bulgaria has always been and remains a fertile land for tourists.

Not a single story, not a single video can fully describe the beauty of this region. Hotels here always open their doors hospitably for children and their parents on the coast, and in the mountains for ski lovers. Let's try to list all the reasons why it is best to relax with a child here.

How to choose a resort

When going on vacation with a child less than 1 year old or older, an adult must take care in advance to ensure that the trip is enjoyable for everyone. It is necessary to approach the choice of place and time especially responsibly. If you can adjust something with food on the spot, buy it, cook it, and somehow compensate for the lack of entertainment, then the climate and weather are not under your control.

In the same way, it will be impossible to change the terrain and location of the home where you will spend your time. These points must also be carefully calculated. For example, for a 2-year-old child, clean sandy beach with a gentle entrance to the sea.

A road with several transfers and a duration of several days can also ruin any vacation. This is another important nuance that must be taken into account.

The next most important selection criteria will be hotel amenities and leisure activities. Please ensure that the hotel you are traveling to has the following available and able to provide:

• extra baby cot;
• food, bottle warmers and a stroller for infants;
• children's club;
• children's menu;
• children's playground;
• children's animation;
• nanny and nursery for babies up to one year old.

All this is far from necessary, but it is very desirable to have it in the hotel of your choice.

Climate of Bulgaria

This small country collected within its borders all types of relief:

Accordingly, the weather here cannot be the same. If in the mountains in winter the temperature drops to -30°C with two-meter snowdrifts and bright sun, then in coastal areas it balances around zero. All year round, high ridges reliably protect seaside resorts from cold European winds.
Thanks to this, the climate, unlike the mainland continental one, is mild Mediterranean on the coast and in the south of the country. There are no strong daily temperature changes here, and by the end of summer the sea warms up to 23 degrees. The weather in the summer months on the coast resembles the Crimean: during the day 23-30°C, at night 12-15°C. The most gentle temperature for babies lasts from mid-May to the end of June or in the last month of summer and the first month of autumn. However, in May-June the sea is still cool, and you will only have to swim in the pools. Therefore, when they ask: “Please advise, tell me when is the best time to book hotels with children in Bulgaria,” there is only one answer – in August-September.

Road

By plane from Moscow to one of four airports (Sofia, Varna, Plovdiv, Burgas) it takes only 2-3 hours. But this is only a flight. When planning a trip with children, it is better to find a route with the fewest transfers. The proximity of our countries allows you to choose one of the possible methods of transportation or combine them:

To cross the border you need a visa (Schengen or national). There are also bans and restrictions on the import of certain items and products. It is necessary to first clarify the list and quantity of the limit.

When choosing a hotel in Bulgaria for a holiday with a child, be sure to check all the distances that you will have to travel.

• The road from the airport or train station to the hotel is sometimes more difficult and longer than the flight itself. Having your own transfer at the hotel is of great importance and a huge plus. You need to inquire about this before your trip.
• Distance to the beach. You will have to overcome it at least twice a day. It’s great if the hotel has its own beach right under the windows of the rooms. But sometimes budget economy 2nd line hotels are more attractive than expensive premium ones, providing regular transport where you can travel for free in a couple of minutes to a good sandy beach and back.
• When going on vacation with a teenager, look through the forum or on our website for reviews of hotels, nearby attractions, entertainment centers, excursions, as well as distance from objects of interest to the child (water parks, amusement parks, Disneylands, etc.).
