I recently stayed 5 nights at Hotel Elpida in Golden Sands with my cousin. It was our first all-inclusive experience, and honestly, it was very mixed some positives thanks to the staff and animators, but also some real issues with food and management. The biggest highlight was the animation team. Without them, the stay would have felt quite boring, especially for us (we’re 21). Miroslav the area manager and Stan stood out: always positive, professional, and genuinely caring. They organized fun activities during the day (archery, darts, water polo, dancing) and every evening had kids’ shows followed by music and performances. They even gave us tips and advice outside their working hours. Thanks to them, the atmosphere was lively. On the other hand, some animators (like Esi & Moni) seemed unmotivated and brought the mood down and always complained and you'd only find out if you speak Bulgarian, but Miroslav and Stan really saved the experience. The pools were clean and well-guarded, with two very relaxed and funny security guards. We ended up spending more time there than at the beach since the hotel doesn’t provide private sunbeds/umbrellas. The billiards table was broken when we tried it, but the staff refunded us right away, which was fair. Staff in general were kind and helpful shoutout to Denislav the bartender and the pool guards. The food was honestly the weakest point. Very poor quality and some guests even had food poisoning. For such a big hotel, parking is also a nightmare, spaces are extremely tight, and one day a trash truck even hit a car. Elevators are another problem: only 2 small ones for about 500 guests, and one often doesn’t work, which means long waits, especially during busy hours. Another thing: Golden Sands overall is very tourist-oriented, with most guests at the hotel being Russian, Ukrainian, or Romanian. As Bulgarians, we noticed sellers in the area raise prices if they think you’re a foreigner. If you speak Bulgarian, prices drop a lot for example, we were once offered a volleyball for 40 leva, but after switching to Bulgarian, the price went down to 10 plus a free lighter. Tips for future guests: • Don’t leave your belongings unattended at the pool. They stole our stuff during lunch • Always wear a shirt in the restaurant (they don’t allow shirtless guests). • If you’re 20–25 and want fun or nightlife, this isn’t the right hotel, it’s more family-friendly. • If you’re a foreign family with kids, the animation team will keep them entertained and happy. Final opinion: The hotel has friendly staff, clean pools, and an excellent animation team that really does their best. But serious issues with the food, parking, and elevators make it hard to recommend for young adults or anyone looking for comfort and quality. For families with children, it can still be a decent option thanks to the entertainment. But for a hotel with free wifi we were on the 2nd floor and the wifi is poor. And there are 7 floors..

Personalul lasa de dorit, nici macar o intrebare nu puteai sa le adresezi domnisoarelor de la receptie fara sa isi dea ochii peste cap. Curatenia nu a existat absolut deloc, am gasit in minunata mea camera UN COCON uscat..as atasa o fotografie, dar din pacate nu cred ca pot face asta aici, nu cred ca acolo ii era locul, am instiintat receptia, ne a dat alta camera si ce sa vedeti:) mizeria care probabil a ramas neaspirata, au bagat o fara nicio grija sub pat, absolut oribil. Mancarea deloc diversificata, un piept de pui sau un snitel nu am vazut. NU RECOMAND !

Съотношение цена качество хотела е топ Първа линия море Стаята ни беше огромна с изглед море Всеки ден се почиства Храната в вкусна и разнообразна Аниматорите са страхотни,и всички ги обичат Персонала е на ниво,вежлив и усмихнат Момичетата на рецепция са страхотни Истинска почивка за хора без претенции Догодина задължително ще го посетим пак Препоръчвам за семейство с деца Успех и късмет на целия персонал И до нови срещи 🍀❤️🌺

De evitat! O experiență dezamăgitoare la Hotel Elpida – Nisipurile de Aur

Am ales Hotel Elpida sperând la un sejur liniștit, dar din păcate, realitatea a fost cu totul alta. Problemele au început din prima zi și, cel mai grav, aproape nimeni din personal nu părea interesat să le rezolve.

În zona piscinei, se formau frecvent grupuri de persoane care săreau în apă fără nicio grijă pentru ceilalți, stropind tot în jur și deranjând clienții care încercau să se relaxeze. Când am atras atenția, am fost luat la mișto chiar de cei implicați, iar personalul nu a intervenit în niciun fel – practic, comportamentul nepotrivit este tolerat total.

La masă, am avut parte de copane de pui gătite superficial, cu sânge vizibil în interior – total inacceptabil și potențial periculos pentru sănătate. În plus, mesele sunt un haos total: copii nesupravegheați aleargă și țipă prin restaurant și pe holuri, fac mizerie și se bagă în față fără jenă, iar angajații nu intervin deloc. Practic, fiecare face ce vrea, fără niciun respect pentru ceilalți oaspeți.

Singura masă decentă era dimineața, cu aperitive cât de cât ok – brânzeturi, mezeluri și legume. La prânz și cină, însă, aveai parte doar de 5-6 tăvi, din care două constant conțineau ori paste fierte goale, ori orez fiert simplu, fără niciun gust. Mâncarea nu era asezonată absolut deloc – nici măcar cu sare sau piper – iar acestea lipseau de pe foarte multe mese. Trebuia să cauți de la o masă la alta dacă voiai să dai un minim de gust preparatelor. Preparate ciudate, greu de identificat, gătite superficial și fără niciun criteriu clar. Practic, faci foamea.

În plus, hotelul cazează frecvent grupuri de copii veniți în excursii, complet nesupravegheați. Noi am fost cazați pe același hol cu un astfel de grup și a fost un coșmar: copiii țipau, alergau pe hol, băteau în ușile altor camere inclusiv la ora 11 noaptea. Nimeni nu le spunea nimic, iar persoana care ar fi trebuit să aibă grijă de ei nu era nicăieri. Când le atrăgeai atenția, reacționau urât, obraznic, și începeau să vorbească între ei în limba lor, evident deranjați că le spui ceva.

Și, ca tabloul să fie complet, am observat un tratament clar diferențiat față de turiști, în funcție de naționalitate. Cei bulgari sau ucraineni erau abordați mult mai amabil, li se vorbea altfel și primeau atenție sporită. La snack bar, de exemplu, lor li se oferea înghețată în porții duble, în timp ce nouă, românilor, ni se punea minimul posibil, cu o atitudine vizibil diferită. Puțini angajați știau minimul de engleza (nu ne înțelegeam unii cu alții aproape deloc), și de persoane care într-adevăr să aibă zâmbetul pe buze și să glumească nu prea am avut parte..2-3 angajați maxim. Hotelul nu are plaja proprie cu șezlonguri, umbrele, dar ăsta nu este un impediment pt că zona in care este situat este una frumoasă. Cazarea pe 6 nopți, 4 adulti-9000 de lei. Nu e nici mult, dar nici puțin..nu mi dau seama ce mi s a oferit de banii ăștia.

În concluzie, Hotel Elpida oferă o experiență haotică, prost gestionată, cu lipsă totală de control și respect față de clienți. Este locul perfect dacă vrei gălăgie, mizerie, mâncare fără gust și o atmosferă ostilă. Nu recomand sub...

Щойно виїхали з готелю і по свіжій памʼяті напишу відгук . Відпочивали 27.07-3.08. Тур бронювали спонтанно ,буквально за три дні до відпустки ,тому варіантів було небагато ,зупинили свій вибір на “Elpida”,бо він знаходиться на береговій лінії . Але коли зайшли почитати відгуки були в шоці і їхали на відпочинок у пригніченому настрої ,в очікуванні жахливих умов проживання. Але по приїзду були приємно здивовані. Перше,що побачили гарне лоббі,з приємними пані на рецепції. Ми приїхали о 14:00,заселення з 15:00,але нас заселили одразу . Номер наш був на другому поверсі ,здається де люкс. Номер чистий ,без зайвих запахів .Білі,чисті рушники ,постільна білизна . Так меблі вже не нові,але не критично . В номері кондиціонер(відмінно працював ),телевізор (не користувались),фен (працював). Ванна кімната чиста і велика . В номері шикарний балкон зі столом і двома стільцями і з неймовірним видом на море. Щодо їжі: вибір великий в великій кількості .Супи,мʼясо,риба,різні види гарнірів ,салати,овочева нарізка,ковбаси,сири,фрукти ,тістечка. Якщо щось закінчувалось,то завжди підносили ще (окрім морепродуктів) Щось було смачне,щось недуже але не критично . За всі дні жодного разу голодними не залишились . Велика кількість напоїв,кава,чай. Дуже класні аніматори,Моні,Ессі,Шені і зірка анімації -Міро ,кожен день влаштовували змагання ,диско для дітей і розваги для дорослих,цікаві та веселі шоу . Взагалі,персонал чудовий. Всі привітні і завжди були готові допомогти . Прибирання в номері було кожен день ,заміна рушників також . На нашому поверсі була дуже мила покоївка(з України ). Єдиний нюанс по персоналу -це рятувальник біля басейну ,якийсь неадекватний,завжди злий і на всих кричить . Що не сподобалось :це трішки запущена територія ,пару разів був неприємний запах на сходах між поверхами ,лежаків біля басейну мало (до того ж люди просто ложили рушники і десь ходили ,тим самим займаючи місце),дуже багато людей ,що палять цигарки і ,коли ввечері сидиш за столиком під час вечірнього шоу,то дихати неможливо (але це ,мабуть,більше претензія не до готелю ),килими в загальних коридорах брудні ,в лоббі дивани порвані і затягані,загалом готель вже старий і потребує реіноваціі.Найбільший мінус для мене -це відсутність лежаків і парасольок на пляжі . В цілому все дуже сподобалось . А всі мінуси перекриває локація готеля і команда аніматорів . Море в Болгарії неймовірне . Чисте ,тепле,а який колір (inlove) Додам ,що це був перший досвід відпочинку закордоном з системою all inclusive,тому порівняти...
