“One of the best vacations of my life--Spectacular!”

Absolutely one of the best vacations I have ever had. The food was absolutely amazing. The flavor just burst in your mouth. How does anyone make potatoes taste that good?

Absolutely one of the best vacations I have ever had. The food was absolutely amazing. The flavor just burst in your mouth. How does anyone make potatoes taste that good? All inclusive means all inclusive. Two weeks at Melia and I never used my credit card. The drinks were very good and not skimpy on the alcohol. Since I was with a German group and do not speak German, I was given access to a personal assistant who translated for me and saw that I had an English speaking taxi driver to take me to the train station. At the train station this taxi driver, went into the train station with me, bought me a large bottle of mineral water for the train ride (refused to let me reimburse him) and even waited until I got on the correct train. My first day at Melia, I arrived late, after the dining rooms were closed and was invited to an area where I could make myself a sandwich and salad and get something to drink. I checked out at noon, was it was a couple of hours until I left for the train station. I was invited to still eat lunch at the restaurant. Speaking of the restaurant, there is never a dirty table. They are bussed within seconds of people leaving. I never had to wait for a table. Again, the food was spectacular. The place was spotless. The employees were some of the hardest working people I have ever seen. They were all so pleasant and helpful. I felt like royalty. My room had a balcony and faced the Black Sea. What else can I say? Finally, Bulgaria is the "Chick-A-Filet" country of the world. Every person I met, was pleasant, helpful and went out of their way to make sure everything was not just good, but great. I rarely even touched my luggage as, even on the train, the men handled my luggage, and put it on the overhead area for me, as well as taking it down at the end of the train ride. There was a group of young people traveling and saw that I was a solo traveler. When the train arrived in Sofia, they asked if I needed any help and saw that I was safely in a good "Yellow" taxi. At 11 pm I arrived at the Sofia Airport for a very early morning flight. I was dropped off at the wrong terminal. The young man behind the counter, took my luggage and walked with me, a distance outside to the shuttle area to take me to the correct terminal. Then he waited until the shuttle arrived and I was safely on it, even though there were security officers there. There are too many examples like the ones I listed, to list here. The cost of everything was very inexpensive compared to the United States. I will go back every year and have told many friends about this wonderful experience. I just can't say enough good about Melia Sunny Beach, Bulgaria, and Mathias, who helped me at Melia.

“Excellent value for money.”

We visited the hotel in June 2024 and were so impressed with the food hotel,staff and room we decided to return in September.

We visited the hotel in June 2024 and were so impressed with the food hotel,staff and room we decided to return in September. We booked for seven days from the 23rd September which was near to the hotels season in ending. The hotel wasn't as busy as in June with most of the hotels restaurants closed which caused a slight problem when trying to find a seat in the restaurant that was open. Lots of tables were set out for six or four persons but none for two. Lots of couples sat at the tables for six which created a problem. The food at the restaurant was of a high standard and plentiful. Lots of variety fish,mussels, prawns and various meats. Q great variety of salads. You can help yourself to wines which were acceptable. The young members of staff work exceptionally hard in the restaurant. I found all the staff pleasant and not rude as described in other reviews. The pool area is spotless with lots of sunbeds. Lots of quests appear to want sunbeds next to the pool area. We opted for a sun trap were we got the sun all day. The pool bar and eating area was excellent. The chef Ben's ribs are unbelievable and very tasty. Again works very hard but always has time to chat Our room 8302 on the 8th floor. The room was amazing with a huge double bed and a separate bedroom with a smaller double. The balcony was a wrap around which over looked the pool,sea and hills. We sat on the balcony at night and watched the entertainment. I found the hotel to be great value. We will be visiting again for the third time next year. Another nice gesture was a bottle of wine and chocolates in the room on our arrival. Our holiday was made special by Peter (hotel foyer) who was full of information, chef Ben and Gilcan in the foyer bar and all the restaurant and entertainment team. Thanks for a great week. See you next year.

“Think carefully before booking”

The room was an upgrade for our anniversary. Which was nice but not amazing, cleaning standards could of been higher ....my husband ended up with a viral illness as you state, no bloods or other cultures were taken, none of that was done so therefore not factual that it was viral. The hotel has several issues, staff engagement a main one for a smile goes a long way, I do believe my husband also reviewed and believe the response you have given , is well not factual. I wonder if you got us confused as your stating I was offered a neck massage due to a neck issue. Nope I did not have neck issue...... so come on melia reply with facts .. will never visit bulgaria again due to this holiday
