Sunshine Magnolia & Spa

On Bulgaria’s Black Sea coast in the Golden Sands resort area, about 11 km from Varna city center. The property sits in a leafy park and overlooks the coast, with its own sandy beach just 200 m away. Nearby sights include Sveti Sveti Konstantin & Elena Monastery, the Cathedral of the Assumption of the Virgin, and Aladzha Monastery.

Set across a mature park with a blooming magnolia at its heart, the complex pairs seaside views with green calm. Rooms (189) are air-conditioned and feature private balconies, refrigerators and satellite TV — many upper-floor rooms offer sea panoramas. Expect simple, spa-resort styling and easy access to beach and park paths.

All-inclusive rates are available. Onsite spa services include massages, body treatments and facials, plus a spa tub and sauna for slow, salty evenings. There’s an outdoor tennis court, a beach bar for sun-to-sundown drinks, a hair salon, and free self-parking — wake up to sea-breeze mornings and stroll to the sand.

Complimentary high-speed (wired) internet is available. The hotel also offers a 24-hour front desk, elevator access, laundry/dry-cleaning and safe-deposit boxes for added convenience.

Two onsite restaurants serve a mix of local flavors and resort favorites, with a complimentary breakfast included. The beach bar handles casual drinks and light bites, and all-inclusive plans cover most meals and beverages (some special dinners and items may incur extra charges).
