You’ll find iHotel Sunny Beach tucked slightly back from the seafront in Bulgaria’s biggest and best-known resort. It’s set in a handy spot that balances convenience with a calmer atmosphere: close enough to walk to the beach and lively promenade, yet far enough away for peaceful nights back at base.

Sunny Beach itself is all about classic sunshine fun – a huge sweep of golden sand, wallet-friendly restaurants and bars, and easy access to big-hitter attractions like Action Aquapark and Luna Park fairground. When you’ve had your fill of beach time, hop in a taxi to explore the old town of Nessebar, a UNESCO-listed gem just along the coast.

• 200m from the beach
• 250m from the nearest shops, bars and restaurants
• 1.5km from Sunny Beach resort centre
• Easy access to local attractions including Action Aquapark and Luna Park

Approx. transfer time from airport: 45 minutes

All Inclusive at iHotel Sunny Beach revolves around two main restaurants and a trio of bars, so drinks and dining are never far away.

Saffron is the bright, modern buffet restaurant serving breakfast, lunch and dinner, with live show-cooking stations and a handy kids’ buffet plus microwaves for families.

For a change of scene, Avalon à la carte opens for dinner on selected days, serving a more intimate menu (one visit is typically included per 7-night stay, subject to reservation and availability).

Between meals, the snack bar keeps everyone topped up with light bites and ice cream by the pool, while the pool bar pours cool drinks from morning until late evening. Inside, the lobby bar is the go-to for pre-dinner apéritifs and relaxed nightcaps.

A smart dress code may apply in the restaurants and bars; reservations, opening dates and times can vary by season and board arrangement, so check the latest information on arrival.

What All Inclusive typically includes.

The hotel’s focal point is its outdoor freshwater pool, framed by loungers and parasols and featuring a children’s section and fun slides – perfect for younger guests and the young at heart. Inflatables and water toys are permitted, adding to the laid-back, family vibe. Complimentary pool towels are provided, so you can travel light.

When the weather is cooler or you fancy a change of scene, head indoors to the heated freshwater pool in the spa centre (open seasonally). It’s a calm, relaxed space that pairs beautifully with a sauna session or massage.

Sunny Beach’s main sandy shoreline is around 200m away – wide, gently shelving and lined with beach bars and water sports, it’s the classic Black Sea beach day done right.

Wellness is a genuine focus here. The spa offers a sauna with free, unlimited use for guests, plus a Turkish bath and a wide choice of massage and beauty treatments (extra charge; minimum age typically 18 years).

In the gym, you’ll find cardio machines, free weights and strength equipment (seasonal opening, minimum age 18). The activity programme picks up the pace with aerobics, aqua aerobics, dance and Zumba-style classes, darts, pétanque, pilates, table tennis and yoga.
