Planning a holiday in Bulgaria with kids

Summer holidays 2012 with kids With the beginning of the new year, it’s time for new plans and decisions. Those who are more provident already consider their summer holiday for 2012. Apart from fun and lots of excitement though, a family vacation in Bulgaria is also connected with certain amount of planning and thought. There are several things that you should take into account so that you spend the vacation time with your kids in a pleasant and satisfying way.

Whatever your family is up to – a sea holiday for 2012 or a vacation in the mountains, as soon as you include children in the equation, your focus shifts to three key factors for a good family vacation. And they are: resort, hotel, entertainment.

The resort

Undoubtedly, if you decided to travel with babies or toddlers, the type of the holiday resort you need to head to should be a quieter place, not that famous and therefore overcrowded during the summer season. This should be a location, away from busy nightlife and crammed beaches. Closed complexes are very suitable in this case. In them you can find everything you need plus many tranquil areas, where you can stroll and have a relaxing spare time.

When planning a holiday with older kids, what you should consider is the entertainment and the interesting places available near the resort. For sure your children will have a perfect holiday not only if they spend hours on end on the beach and the sea shore, but also if they visit intriguing sites and unknown places. Not to mention that a “thorough exploration” of a water park will be just right not only for the youngsters but also for the adult members of the family. So combine useful with pleasure and don’t miss going for a ride.

Entertainment

There’s no denying that apart from days of full relaxation and tranquility for each holiday, especially for the family one, the entertainment is an inseparable part of the pleasant time spent, and therefore a factor in the resort choice. It won’t be unreasonable to say “Small children small entertainment, big children big entertainment.”

Toddlers are easily amused, they can simply enjoy playing on the beach with sand buckets and shovels, spending time along the shore or in the kids’ swimming pools. For the smallest ones everything is new and arouses interest. However, this is not the case with the older kids who seek adventures everywhere, all the time. Most of the resorts in Bulgaria do provide quite many of them, such as bowling, table tennis, billiards, darts, various trips and amusements. Of course, the biggest joy for youngsters is a visit to a water park. Nothing can make their holiday more unforgettable and exhilarating than an all-day-pass for such kind of experience. By the way, water parks can be also great for adults. Even they can spend a whole day having fun on the different water amusements.  Recently, Evrika Beach Club Hotel in Sunny Beach, announced 4 new attractions for summer 2012, including speed slide, spiral slide and other exciting adventures.

The hotel

Once you find a suitable resort that would satisfy your and your kids’ needs, you have to pick a hotel. The most important for a holiday with kids in Bulgaria, or anywhere else in the world, is choosing the right place for your family to stay in. Before you make your choice, depending on how old your children are, do check what the hotel provides and the availability and price (is it included or not in your tourist package) of the following: kids’ pools, animation, children area, kids menu, highchairs, baby pool, cot, park area nearby, playgrounds, sports areas, safe beach, and generally everything related to the wonderful and carefree world of children’s smiles. Laguna Beach The complex Laguna Beach Resort in Sozopol is an excellent example of a place, where even the youngest guests of the hotel will feel great. There is a big playground in the resort, kids ‘pools and animators who can look after your children.

Sol Nessebar Mare Sol Nessebar Mare Hotel is one of the three hotels that Sol Nessebar Resort comprises of. The big advantage of this place is that it is surrounded by a park with large alleys and big trees, which is really suitable for walks. The hotel is the closest one to the resort kids club, where children can play in an area, designed like a castle with separate pools and water slides in it. Grand Hotel Varna The hotel offers a kids club for children between the ages of 3 and 12, as well as kids menu in its restaurants. There are highchairs and cots available. Across the area of the hotel and on the beach there are various climbers, slides and other kids’ facilities.
