Hotels with pool on first line in Bulgaria

We loved the variety of pools — several heated outdoor ones and a lovely indoor pool — perfect for families with little kids

The Turkish dishes there were delicious, and we must give a special mention to Hamza, the incredibly welcoming waiter who always greeted us with a big smile and made us feel right at home

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ An unforgettable family holiday at Reina del Mar! We spent our summer holidays at Reina del Mar at the end of August - beginning of September, as a family of three with our 3

Our request for adjoining rooms, as we were four members of the family, was resolved by the customer relations manager by upgrading us to a much more beneficial new accommodation

5-year-old daughter — and we were absolutely impressed from start to finish! The hospitality and genuine care from the entire team made our holiday truly special

The food was another highlight: so much diversity across the restaurants, and our happy place quickly became the snack bar at lunchtime

The hotel is close to the Main Street and the beach. The water in the swimming pool could be warmer and there could be more day activities for younger kids

MPM Hotel Kalina Garden is perfectly located — just a few minutes’ walk from Sunny Beach and close to shops, bars, and restaurants. The rooms are spacious and clean, and the staff are generally friendly and helpful

On the downside, the hotel can get noisy in the evenings, and the air conditioning isn’t always strong enough on very hot days. The pool area is lively but often crowded, so it’s best to grab a sunbed early

Overall, it’s a fun, family-friendly hotel that offers great value and plenty of entertainment — ideal if you’re looking for an energetic, all-inclusive beach break rather than a quiet retreat

The all-inclusive buffet has a decent variety, especially for families, though some dishes can feel repetitive after a few days. What really stands out here are the activities and entertainment

The animation team does a fantastic job keeping both kids and adults engaged — from pool games and mini discos to evening shows and themed events

Big rooms, very comfortable beds, nice staff, clean, big pools. Small beach but with sand and rocks, not many umbrellas or seats

Couldn't be closer to the sea, lovely rooms, comfy beds, soft pillows, lots of bars, fizzy water "on tap" 2 pools, all day ice-cream. Fizzy wine (champagne) is a bit sweet for my taste and not reliably chilled

Spirits and cocktails, a bit hit and miss ?. Some staff are a bit tired (September is the end of the season) but others like Natalie (Nataliya) on reception and Kiril at the beach bar are still happy to serve

Good food but scarce for a five star hotel,not too many options, bar limited to local drinks and few options for food abr. By the pool there is a paid bar. Overall good for the price paid for all inclusive

The experience overall was very good as I did not know what to expect having never been to Bulgaria There was a wide selection of food The rooms were clean A special mention to Nick( dining manager)Jess(dining)Elias(bar)Helena +Natalia(reception)Maria and her team(spa)-who i found very helpful The beach was very near the hotel The bus stop was only a walking distance On the downside there was...

The staff is very friendly and helpful, the piccolo Stoyan was very nice and responsive. However, the staff near the main pool is amazing. The bartender Pavel is a nice and funny guy, always gives the best drinks

Perfect beach hotel with nice view and rooftop pool

I love being on this beach, the staff are friendly, and I always feel safe and protected because they are always walking around, the only thing is that there are not enough mattresses provided

Every thing was awesome.especially The staff, the restaurant, the sea, the rooms, the pool, especially the entertainment team.

VERY GOOD HOTEL, NICE AND CLEAN ROOMS, FRIENDLY AND WELOCOME STUFF. ALL INCLUSIVE IS PERFECT, A LOT OF GOOD AND FRESH FOOD, DRINKS. PERFECT PLACES FOR VACATION, 1 MIN TO THE BEACH. THANK YOU GRIFID ARABELLA TEAM

Hotel Arabella is the perfect place if you’re looking for a fun, energetic holiday! There’s always something going on — games by the pool, music, dancing, evening shows… the vibe is just amazing

from 10 am to 11 pm theres loud music, and even after that, you can hear music from nearby clubs until around 2 am. or well, thats for the rooms facing the beach only

The hotel is no longer 4 star I would place it at 2 or 3 at best for the money it delivers it’s old and needs a little tlc we have done 2 luxury breaks this was a quick getaway location is great 10 min walk from local bus stops and sunny beach I can highly recommend this as a budget friendly break away

The pool is again dated but clean we didn’t have any issues really with this hotel. We paid £350 each for all inclusive

Overall, the hotel is in a very good location, food okay but very monotonous, very poor and bad Breakfast, paid Parking, wi-fi surcharge, duźy problem with leźakami the pool, which is busy in the evening

After reading reviews all I was expecting was clean the hotel is dated 90s style but we found it to be clean in all areas the room was dated but clean comfortable

I enjoyed the hotel and it was the first time at sunny beach and I will go back next year with my daughters

Cheap, central, no service Positive: Short walk to the sea, shops, supermarket and restaurants. Negative: The air conditioning is limited to 28 degrees. The hotel reception is a decoration

It's not a little issue but everything other was great - hotel services, pool, interiors and exteriors and the 24/7 busy main street of Sunny Beach

Wild sandy beaches are less than 1 km far away and it's impossible to avoid the busy street. Great for bigger families, group of friends etc. Nice place to enjoy vacation day and wild Bulgarian summer nightlife

Best part about this hotel is the entertainment, vlad was great with us and anything we needed he was our first port of call and made our holiday a great laugh, will definitely come back in future

Stayed here on a lads holiday for 8 days, hotel manager and workers were all great and looked after our needs and room was cleaned everyday. The food is good and always fresh

Drinks available all day and staff are friendly

Our all-inclusive was same whole week, same breakfast, lunch and dinner offer every day. I'm also not sure about the sources of food but food was just a only problem for me

Great time with family! We just back yesterday. We had room with beautiful view on mountains and sea (7 level). Amazing food - A lot of different dishes on breakfast, luch and dinner

Great beach and local alcohol for allinclusive. Thanks Rainbow Tours for this trip!

The place is very beautiful! Water,beach,nature....and that's all!!!! Hotel Sevda, no service!!!!!

Hello,so i wanted to tell,that your hotel is pretty good. Because the apartment is very nice,even apartment is having a TV! Every day nice woman cleaning the apartment

The food is high quality food and very nice beach,and sea. Thank you for spending time for us

In restraine food is no different variety - again not 4*. Poor choice and every day the same. Sunbeds on the beach are sorely lacking, for them the battle with the 6 am who first takes

But I honestly can’t think of anyone worth complaining about. The pools are spot on, plenty of sunbeds, and the beer is cold! What more do you need

Evening entertainment is excellent and lots of variety within the shows. So many slides, and pools! No queues and plenty of lifeguards about

The place is clean, you’re spoilt for choice when it comes to bars, restaurants, drinks, food, snacks the lot. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful, always take the time to say hello

If I had to find a complaint, and this would be for the sake of finding a fault, the toasters are too slow! And that’s just being picky! Great week away, will definitely be returning

Foods great, entertainment is questionable with the animation team enjoying stripping on stage to their underwear in front of children, one member having nothing but a hat to cover his privates

Now to address the title… Me and my friend, both 15 female have came to this hotel with my family and we really enjoyed the water slides, HOWEVER

They even gave me a diploma for winning the table tennis contest and announced it at the microphone, it was a touching moment for me. The hotel is under renovation and is being rebranded as Hotel Regina

The rooms were a bit dated, but the view of the sea from the 14th floor was impressive. The rest of the hotel looked very good. The pool supposedly had mineral water, indeed I didn't feel excessive chlorine

It was good value for money. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The hotel have a new management from 2025 and besides old reviews that I read, now everything was great, the rooms, the pool and food.

I liked my stay in the hotel very much. The rooms and the food were okay but what made my holiday was the animators Reni and Melek, who were very nice and played very cool music by the pool

And honourable mention for the best beach they have here in Bulgaria, I really enjoyed my time there

Food was great, everything you could desire, especially the cakes were my favorites

A lot of tourists from Germany. They are very noisy. Not yet the season. You can imagine what will happen in June...

The food was average, there was the variety of choices like for example for breakfast pancakes, sausages, bakery products, vegetables etc. No threats of poisoning as some others wrote here

There are several food stores nearby. there is a swimming pool and a small play area for children. The rooms are spacious, but the furniture is not very new. There are problems in the bathroom with the shower

Nice stay ! All staff members were very friendly and welcoming. +5⭐ for the awesome Vencislav !!!

The room are clean and are more than ok ! The animation staff are really friendly and make good job, but the barkeepers are really unfriendly, never see such unfriendly people ! The meal aren't good, happy come back home or eat out of the hotel

They aren't stingy with the alcool. So if the barkeepers were a little bit friendly and meal were better, were the this a TOP hotel, but in the circumstance only 3-3,5 stars

Everything was very nice, we had a great time! The food was delicious and with a great variety. The staff was friendly, the room very spacious and clean. The pools and water slides are also great! Thanks

No info outside that children have to be 140 cm to ride alone. some slides they ride home they cant here. They told us that all was opend but 25% was closed. Overall it was ok but i could be better

The only reason I gave the workers 2 stars is because the animation team is wonderful. They make program and make this hotel worth at least some stars, but this is DEFINETLY not a 4 star hotel

The workers are okay, depends on who you get, the cleaner in the main area is just not good with people and tells and the managers do nothing about it

I understand that it's more work but this is a presumably 4star hotel, they should get paid enough and have enough workers for it

You eat drink out of plastic cups, no decency to give you real glasses and when you do use a real glass the workers glare at you

Carried out a Grand renovation. Landscaped area converted to housing, restaurant, outdoor pool.

Great hotel but in the wrong place. We were informed some facilities would not be available as the season was coming to an end. We had a excellent welcome by reception staff given a good good pack as we had arrived late

From the clean pools to the serene atmosphere, everything was top-notch — we’ll definitely be returning!

The next morning we were surprised but pleased to see we had been upgraded to pool view. The next two days were very enjoyable, weather inclement but good food and excellent company of other guests

After the convention ended dining facilities got back to normality but the quality and variety of food on offer definitely deteriorated and the Hotel lost its sparkle

There was a great variety at every meal, with fresh, well-prepared options for both adults and kids. The all-inclusive drinks were also a nice touch, especially the cocktails by the pool

The hotel sootvetsvuet 3 stars. or 4 cons. 1 pool, beach fee, beach, shower on the charge, to the hotel to climb about 70 steps! The food is OK, but no variety, the staff speaks Russian.

This hotel is large and in a great position, being so close to the beach and having a great view of the sea. However, that's as far as it goes

When I challenged this, the manager said, 'how can we make this right?' I told them, change the rule because it doesn't make sense. The hotel was mostly silent, no music or entertainment and frequently dimly lit

What they do for the hotel is amazing, I learned their dance in just 2 days, they do their job well and due to the argument given above I think they deserve 5 stars

They have a strange rule that says you can drink tea or coffee at breakfast but this changes during the evening meal, when you can ONLY have water, not even a glass of juice

Hotel located in perfect point of Golden Sands - near the beach, far from most crowded and noisy part of promenade but still offering many shops and other attractions. But location is their main strong point

Because i loved it and i loved the mac donalds food it was gorgeous and the nice cold pool at promorie is so nice and cool but the food in the hotel is horrible so I'm gonna give you I think I'll give yah about 3/5 only because the food was disgusting in the hotel and our rooms weren't clean clean so yah giving it 3/5?????????????????????????????????????

I just checked out of the hotel today and these are my impressions. I note that I am not a demanding person. apartment is spacious and functional, it has two terraces 2

Good location, close to the sea. The food was really good dispite the previous reviews. Clean room, nice sea-view if you chose the sea-view room. As a minus was the missing wi-fi

Overall a place where I can chose to stay again in the future

the location is excellent, the place itself is beautiful The hotel is 4/5 for me, great for simple people. I went with my family, my husband and two children, they have the same impressions as me

Limited facilities, offset by good pool and great pool bar, plus excellent hard working entertainment team

This is our second time at this property and to tell you the truth, after the renovations everything is much better! The rooms are fresh and the sea view is fantastic as always

Lovely Hotel, very surprised that everything was still available. ie pool bar, day and evening entertainment for such a late holiday

The hotel could explain things a little better ie pool towels have a £10 euro deposit paid at reception where you are given a card to take to the attendant and get your towel

Entainment is lacking but we are at the start of season so may be some later

Towards the end of the holiday choice was a bit scarce, but what was offered was always cooked to perfection and sweets were yummy. Old town Nessebar was a short walk away and was definitely worth the visit

Their motivation, energy, fun, and passion for their work amazed us. From morning exercises to evening entertainment. We weren't bored on vacation; we had a lot of fun, for which we are extremely grateful

The hotel is just on the beach with enough sunbeds for everyone. The pool with two water slides is big enough and just next to the beach bar with all-day drinks and snacks

Room was comfortable wirh a sea view. The food was okay but breakfast quite lomited. Only the lobby bar served spirits which meant that you could. only get beer/wine and soft drinks at the pool beach

I liked the comfy beds and sea view with fresh air and therefore no need for a/c (btw every room has a view of the sea). The best part is the cuisine. Very good choice of meals, salads, fruit and desserts

The hotel is very centrally located, right on the seafront. The food is varied and delicious. The rooms are spacious and clean.

First I was upset, thinking that the smell will come into the room but no, it was ok. The room was amazing, front sea view, 2 balconies. It is amazing to sleep in the night and to hear the sound of the waves

One of our best family holiday. Close to the airport, close to bus to the Varna city center and also to Zlate pisky. Yet, the location is much calmer and with relaxing atmosphere

Everything was nice! Location, accomodation, service, food delicious. The beach is very close, 5-7 minutes from the hotel. The pool could have been a bit warmer. I recommend!

As a Black solo traveler, I was initially unsure about visiting Sunny Beach due to hearing about potential racism. However, this hotel made me feel completely comfortable and at ease throughout my stay

Outside seating there is a lack of nice outside seating the outside bar area the seats are super uncomfortable some nice seating would be welcomed where you can drink from a glass not a plastic cup

Just a few negatives I want to point out maybe I'm being fussy but I like to review honestly. The pool towels it was a bit of a lottery weather you would get a nice one or a thread bare tatty one

I stayed with my family in June, a good size of a room, food was ok, a bit of everything, we enjoyed our time by the pool, many activities

The room was clean and tidy, and I found the beds quite comfortable. What stood out to me was the staff — they come from different countries and treated everyone equally

Location is great - close to shops and the beach (see attached photo)

I booked a four-star hotel as a super last minute. The TripAdvisor rating is sufficient at first glance #75 of 252 on Sunny Beach. Only after paying did I start reading the reviews and start to worry

Fantastic hotel with great facilities! Two generous size pools (one for children) with plenty of sun lounges so no sunbed wars, needing to get up at 5am! Always clean, you will constantly see cleaners going around and cleaning reception area & lifts

The location of the hotel is very good, only one minute away from the beach. For our little kids it was amazing due to the many activities that the hotel offers

Truly an amazing experience in this amazing all- inclusive hotel. The food we were offered was very tasteful, the staff was really friendly and offered us a great experience during our vacation

Staff are very friendly and helpful and will go out their way to ensure you have a fantastic stay, particularly welcoming towards children, always waving and saying hello

-10 sunbeds on the beach - huge con if you come for the sand and the sea - gym - very old , not sure anyone worked out there during my stay - for those minding exercising or climbing stairs: around 50 stair climb from the beach to the hotel All in all pleasant experience with good food, had a good time with my friends

- housekeeping doing a very good job with daily cleaning and changing towels - despite all the comments below that scared me before going there food was delicious - a lot of options from a bunch of salads, veggies, meats, barbecue for lunch and dinner with different meats daily, pancakes in the morning

- coffee - acceptable to good depending on what you choose on the machine - pool with lots of chairs and shade from umbrellas and huge trees - 2 lifeguards during the day - pool bar - nice staff, very good ice cream, good cookies during serving hours -staff pretty young and helpful, did their job very well - reception looks very nice with a lot of seats inside and outside on the terrace - saw there...

Good parking, guarded, variated food but not every day, staff ok too our needs, very polite, room big bathroom old, good pool, bar ok.

The comments bellow from fellow Romanians with "only 2 types of soup", and "food different than in Romania" - you are not at your mother's house, but in Bulgaria - different country with different food ;)

Also the comments with "reusing food from the breakfast in the lunch meals" - what do you guys expect them to do , throw it away? that's what every restaurant ever does

- over anxious lifeguards on the beach - the guys are blowing their whistles anytime someone gets like 35 meters into the sea, while the water is reaching like 1

The hotel is clean and in the good location. Th all-inclusive food is lower quality, but the end of the season is a complete disaster

The location is perfect, just a short walk from the beach, which made it super convenient to enjoy the sea and sun every day

From morning activities by the pool to evening shows and games, they managed to keep both kids and adults entertained in the best way possible

You could really see how passionate they are about what they do, and their positive vibes were contagious. Special thanks to the animation crew for making our holiday so lively and memorable

The food was really good too — a nice variety, always fresh and tasty, with something for everyone. But what truly made our stay unforgettable was the animation team
