Very nice apartment with amazing views to sea. Excellent apartment with air conditioning in each room also they are very clean. Complex is very well maintained and there are 2 swimming pools available for adults and children with slides. There is parking and shuttle service available to the sunny beach and Nesebar. Complex is on the beach so is very handy. Only one minus is beach is small and there are to many stones however restaurant are available nearby to beach. Recommend.

“Great property and staff, some improvements needed”

This property is very well maintained, apartment we had was nice and clean. Management staff is very friendly and helpful. Cleaning staff does a good job cleaning apartments and property grounds. There are several things that property management needs to work on: 1. Swimming pool chairs/lounges. It sounds ridiculous, but all of the plastic chairs are labeled with apartment numbers or FN (fort noks, meaning that people who rent can use them). Looks like apartment owners labeled the chairs, which I would understood if they bought some fancy ones spending their own money. But labeling the common plastic ones? What happens if you want to use a chair next to the kids pool and then next to the adults pool and then in the shade, etc. Are you going to carry these heavy lounge chairs with you? Needless to say most of the chairs are empty all day or have towels thrown over them with no owners in sight. Just have standard lounge chairs for common use without apartment labels. 2. Please make a rule for quite hours and communicate it to renters/owners. Some people have no common sense and play loud music until 2-3 am. Impossible to sleep. 3. Put no smoking sign next to kids wading pool. Most people understand that you do not smoke next to young kids splashing in wading pool, but there were several families who did not understand that and were puffing smoke in kids faces while sitting in circle on the edge of kids pool. If there was a NO smoking sign, then other guests would feel comfortable confronting smokers about it and asking to smoke elsewhere. Another thing is about the beach and the pool. Be aware that none of the pools are heated, even the kids pool is freezing cold. Also, the beach is a government property: dirty, no umbrellas, no chairs, lost of stones, hard to enjoy.

“A mixed but good experience that will not be re-lived”

Okay so i have never been to Elenite or Bulgaria in fact so this was all new to me. I went with my family and girlfriend for a 12 night stay in one of the apartments.

Okay so i have never been to Elenite or Bulgaria in fact so this was all new to me. I went with my family and girlfriend for a 12 night stay in one of the apartments. We had trouble finding the complex but it was only round the corner. Elenite is around 40 mins from the airport but since there was major traffic, the taxi driver insisted going backroad, which took an hour. My advice is you look at were it is on google maps to make sure you know were the complex is. The complex is actually really nice with easy lift access, a good sized pool with kids pool and slide as well. As well as this, the beach is literaly right in front of you and the water is nice as well. I would also recommend the little diner just near the pool, i had a huge plate of fresh mussels for 9.90 lev (around 4 pounds) which was a steal. However avoid english breakfast, a costly 18 lev for god knows what reason. There are mixed nationalities in the complex, mostly russians but a few english bulgarian and german. This is were my first problem arose. I was casually playing ball in the pool with my brother and all of a sudden a huge man presumably bulgarian started shouting in a different language at me and doing all sort of hand gesticulations. Making it really uncomfortable and he seemed to know a lot of people in the complex so it was not nice. Then a woman strutting around the pool reading a book was scared we would hit her with the ball (the pool is of considerable size and we were on one side) oh (also these people tried to talk to us in russian or whatever language they assumed we spoke) and told us to get lost. nice one. The sunbeds were also an issue as we had placed them at an empty spot near the beach because each apartment has their own private sunbeds and they are placed in a specific spot and are not moved. After only one day we were confronted by an man shouting in whatever language and then he saw we were english and said "you cant have your sunbeds here we are here" yet there was a completely empty spot. My mum had the full front of this and when we explained they quickly backed off. It turned out he was staying with the other man that had shouted down at us at the pool before. aside from that it was a good stay, weather was good apart from first 4 days were it was thunder storming which was pretty cool to witness. Here are some advice tips for you to do if you are staying here: -Taxis will charge you more from elenite to sunnybeach or nessebar, if you want to go travelling to other places and you can, get a rent a car GO TO THE OFFICE we got ripped off by one on a corner near robinsons bistro. -Watersports down the beach are a must, the best i have ever been on and reaaly cheap and friendly people. - AVOID ROYAL COMPLEX AT ALL COSTS waterpark is sub par and the staff around there didnt consider us all inclusive even though we paid for a day to do so and even then food was disgusting and ignorant people everywhere - Go to the small mini market, it is cheaper for most things, they ripped me off on a watermeleon though. -If you have a car and car park is full, park just above the car park there are extra spaces -Final tip if you have a rental car, ask if you can leave it at the airport, we left it in a bay at the airport and saved a lot of money on airport transfers I hope this review helped you in your decision, Elenite is quite far out from most of the main places and need transport to get their, limited resteraunts and limited things to do, although a nice place to be around.
