Off-season relaxation

Where: Aqvatonic Balneo Spa - Steaua de Mare, Eforie Nord

What:
  • The pool, the saunas and all activities there are excellent for total relaxation. (As end of October is off-season on Romanian seaside and you do not have many things to do outside the hotel, the pool is what you need!)
  • Breakfast is brightening the day and the dinner is excellent too!
  • It was not very clear if the booking includes free access to pool. (I presume not, but somehow, I expected to be wrong. I was right.) May be, would be batter to have also booking rates with pool access included.
  • The room is small, but it doesn't matter too much.

Harmony Suites Monte Carlo


Location: Sunny Beach, Bulgaria
Web: https://www.harmony-suites.com/book-a-vacation

It good for relaxation, but depends on what is your expectation. For me, was not what I was looking for:
  • Too far from beach. (The advertised 400m is from the back door of the location, in straight line. The real walking distance is 1200m).
  • Too small for four adults.
  • Only a pan and a small pot for cooking.
  • No bed sheets change in 4 days.
  • Clean towels but with spots on them.
Conclusion: There are more better locations!

Good relaxation in an almost empty location

Some notes about Arena Regia Hotel & Spa (Mamaia Sat):
  • After mid September the area, as well as the location, is almost empty. This is very good for total relaxation but you do not have too many things to do.
  • Pool is excellent (especially as you are the only one using it!).
  • Breakfast is brighten the day!
  • The restaurant is expensive (and wines, very expensive). Likely, there are some good restaurants still open in the area.
  • For myself, it was strange to be on the seaside, but not able to see the sea from the balcony.

ΝΙΚΟΣ Greek Taverna: Greek Delights on Romanian Seaside




After a long walk, on a sunny-pleasant autumn day, we were hungry. With the nostalgia of the Mediterranean, we think at a Greek restaurant. We did not have any idea where to stop, we choose the place where we saw a lot of people. And it was excellent!

Summer!





Thank you summer for the salty sea perfume, scented with wave foam and grains of sand!

Masada

In the Negev desert, near the Dead Sea, on a mountaintop, its Masada.

The word Masada means "fortress" in Hebrew. The cliff's remoteness from human habitation and difficult approach made it an ideal location for a fortress. Two fortified palaces were built there in the 1st century BC. Looking at ruins and surroundings you fell the beauty of the place and imagine the life of old times. To have an idea how was to live here, forget the cable transportation and take the Snake Path. The effort merits.
