Elenite Village Reviews

hotel amd rep not so friendly but nice place to stay

Absolutely dreadful. Would never recommend this place and really looked forward to returning home.The accomodation was unwelcoming, the staff were at times downright rude and we had to make a complaint about a barmaid who shook a set of keys in our face to hint she was shutting the bar 5 minutes early and then proceeded to pull faces behind our backs. Subsequently our children were frightened to ask for an ice-cream if she was on duty as we had made a formal complaint about her. The snack bars were a joke. After you had queued for 50 minutes for your pizza, kebab or hot dog there was either a power cut whereby the staff would not explain the situation but just walk off or there was a power cut- there were several during our stay. They were always running out of things; I've never heard the word FINISH so much in my entire life.The lifeguards were good fun to watch...they played a cracking game of water polo, larked around with the young teenage guests....I'm sure they had forgotten their reason for being there.

I have to say I have never completed a review before, cannot be bothered if I am honest. However I have been on some poor holidays and some excellent ones, but this was the best ever.

I read loads of negative reviews from others on sites like these and was so shocked when i arrived i felt i had to write a review.
In short food fantastic (stay at home if you want british),
beach excellent,
accomodation very clean
staff helfpul and freindly
entertainment great for families.
whats the problem?
I WILL RETURN AGAIN!!!!!
Enjoy xx

I have just returned from a 2 weeks all inclusive Holiday in Elenite village from 8/7/2007 until 23/7/2007.With my husband ,daughter and granddaughter.

After reading a lot of the bad reviews we were a bit worried .
But there was no need to be. We had a lovely 2 weeks .The day we left it was 40 degrees .We just didn't wont to come home.

The Hotel and grounds were spotless. There was a team of ladies cleaning from very early morning until about 11 pm.They were even scrubbing the foot paths. I have never been to such a clean resort.

On the down side .As every one says in the review there are lots of steps. Loads to get to the reception area .And just steps all over the place .. I fell in the children's club on the second night ,as I just hadn't seen the steps .I badly bruised my chest arm and leg. It is certainly not the holiday for any one with walking difficulty's.

Now the food . I thought was very good ,there was a great selection .Yes as people have said there were chips twice a day. But there was also plenty of pasta ,rice . There was a great deal of choice with the other food. I have never eaten so well on holiday. As I am a vegetarian ,and I am a bit fussy with food abroad. But there was know need to of worried .It was all very nicely presented to.

If you go at the time of year we did you have to expect it to be busy at meal times . The first week of our holidays was ok .But the second week was a lot busyer.We had a job to find a table at breakfast time . The other times was ok..

The animation team work so hard with the children and putting shows on .

Some people reviews said the Bulgarian people we miserable and wouldn't speak. I found if you spoke to them first and were pleasant ,they were the same back. We met some really nice members of staff.

The aqua park was great to and was free to get in. But you had to pay for sun beds and umbrellas .

All in all we had a very enjoyable 2 weeks .And I could recommend this holiday .If you like the pools and the beach ,like our 6 year old granddaughter did .We just had a very relaxing holiday .

My mum and I wanted a short break to somewhere different, we certainly got the ";different"; bit, this place was awful we travelled at the end of Sept 06,the staff are miserable, there were numerous break-ins into to ground floor apartments, management did not want to know, police were intimidating to the poor soles who had everything stolen, the food was not edible, we lived on stale bread and salad, would not touch the meat, people were dropping like flies with upset tummy's, I would never recommend this place to any of my friends or family, the worst place i have ever been to.

When i got back i complained to first choice but to no avail, they said they had not had any complaints, can't beleive that, everyone was complaining, take my advice avoid this place.
