Vezhen Hotel - Free Parking

Nice sea view, but that’s all…bad experience with the staff.. first of all : lack of knowlegde of any foreign languages (english/german/french), secondly they don’t know their job (reception ppl)…poor breakfast. At least the view from the room was nice.

Seriously awful food, trust me, I'm not demanding, I'm vegetarian, vegetables weren't fresh and I didn't suppose it's possible to ruin vegetarian dish. Everyday same meals. Service also on such a low level, workers are here probably for punishment, cleaning very sketchy. Never again. Better avoid this place.

Vehzen is an all-inclusive resort at the budget end of the range. Architecture is concrete Eastern European of a few decades ago. Furniture is functional, but the bed was comfortable. Air conditioning and shower worked fine. Bathroom came with hair dryer, towels and soaps. There is a fridge in the room. All was clean. Staff friendly and English spoken. Efficient reception. No safe in the room but safety storage boxes in reception. Sea view from the higher floors but trees block the view lower down. All rooms have a balcony and pool view. Wi-fi was slow at times and also stopped for a few hours. There is limited parking, but there is street parking nearby. Vehzen is one of a muddle of hotels and apartment blocks on a hillside a little way out of Golden Sands. The roads and paths are poorly surfaced and navigation is not straightforward. GPS worked well. Walking to St Constantine and Helena takes about an hour along the coast in one direction, while the centre of Golden Sands is 40 minutes in the other direction. Aladja Monastery is about a 50 minute walk and mostly through the picturesque forest of a nature reserve. Food was buffet style but varied each day. Little vegetarian choice. All inclusive gives a limited range of drinks, but includes one local fizzy beer, wine and some cocktails. There is a restaurant, with inside and outside seating, and a pool bar. The pool is clean and fairly large with a shallow area for children. Lifeguard on duty. Sun loungers were not all occupied. There is no entertainment programme, just piped music at the pool bar. There is table tennis, a pool table and pin ball machine. This is a basic hotel that provides value for money, not a luxury holiday experience.
