The beach is quite lovely with crystal clear water and light, fine pebbles. However, it's not the kind of beach for those seeking a wild experience.

Sunny beach II

We stayed at the hotel for four nights in August and paid 110 euros per night. The room was nice overall, but there was an issue with the bathroom door that my little sister got stuck in. It was concerning because there was no window or proper ventilation. Luckily, I was able to save her. The breakfast was not very extensive, but it was okay. One thing I didn't like was the designated wake-up time, which required guests to be up between 8 and 10 am. While the prices were reasonable, the service at the hotel was consistently rude and they always seemed to try to manipulate customers with their prices. On a positive note, the beach itself was good and everything else about the hotel was fine. However, the parking situation was poor and the parking attendant seemed reckless. If your car gets damaged, they do not take responsibility for it, so I would not recommend staying at this hotel.
