    We went to Sunny Beach last September. we stayed at the tiara beach resort. I have traveled all over the world, but this was the first time I have traveled to Eastern Europe. I had my doubts, I thought Eastern Europe would be just like Cuba. But I must say that I had a fantastic holiday there. All inclusive resort, great food, nice staff and every day a party. We also rented a car and went driving all around Bulgaria, Koprivshtitsa, Nassebar, Zheravna, sozopol and many other towns and cities. The beaches are beautiful, just like the temperature. The excursions are also beautiful and cheap. That's how we went to Istanbul and Romania. We were there for 3 weeks and it cost us +- 2500 euros per person. all in all a beautiful country, we will definitely go to the Tiara beach resort again in May.

    We loved it first time , then did not go home in the end. Lots to see here, Romania is amazing we loved Brasov. The space and lack of people where you can relax is amazing.the hotel got good reports this year, that was a long stay. Possibly see you if your back this way.

    I've been to Sunny Beach several times myself. You seem like a very lovely couple but I must say that I am from an EU member state where I have never EVER been asked to produce my ID, nor in Bulgaria, or any other country in Europe. I did get into a difficult situation once by saying “thank you” at one restaurant so your advice on that is worth gold! ❤ Ps. All the talk about Sunny Beach being a drunken pub can be taken with a pinch of salt. True, it is all that but for those who don't particularly care for the booze & vomit team (I certainly don't) it is a simple matter of choosing your hotel well, and then all you'll see of it (if you're an early riser) is a few Englishmen hanging off the bar stool or passed out in the gutter.

    All citizens here must carry I'd as a policeman can ask for it so obviously visitors as well. I have been stopped a couple of times that's why it is safer to carry a copy when out just in case . Yes the thank you catches polite visitors out. We tried to make this as specific to Bulgaria as possible as we live here.

I have circumnavigated the globe 'overland' and the only time I've ever been asked for my ID was in Esfahan during the Islamic Revolution and in Dar Es Salam when I was at the Tan-Zam railway station after hours. The "thank you" can be a problem at restaurants in Bulgaria and in Turkey, probably other countries in the region as well. 😊

    Potatoes are unfortunately the worst here, a pity but the irrigation required is an issue. Our Bulgarian friends here do not eat and cook many potatoes we initially asked about why so few on sale in the shops.Yes could ask as an American, things get confused in translation so best try and easier alternative word, the saying thank you on paying a bill is related to this area , we were in Veliko Tarnovo and it was not there and surprised locals when we mentioned it. A big country and differences between areas are huge , sunny beach is not a popular destination for Bulgarians but foreigners who are videos are mainly made for. All input is useful and hopefully you may come to sunny beach in the future and see what it is like now.

All areas have been covered. Very good! Some write ups are really insulting to the particular country involved. I live in Ibiza and you know the stigma stuck to here ( thanks to the brits), but away from the handful of “ Brit Pits” this place is amazing, luckily there are places the Brits haven’t found yet ! .. hope they never do.. I am going back to Bulgaria in 3 weeks for my dental treatment. No way would ai pay the rip off prices in the uk or even ( although much cheaper ) here . So Thanks Bulgaria !
