Garden of Eden Resort

Garden of Eden complex is situated in the bay of St. Vlas. This area is considered to be a more relaxed and upmarket alternative to the lively resort of nearby Sunny Beach. The centre of St. Vlas is a traditional village located in the hills beneath the Stara Planina Mountains. Here you’ll find plenty of local restaurants offering great local cuisine and inviting bars with a relaxed atmosphere. A short walk from the centre is the traditional fishing harbour. There is also a new marina offering various boat trips, helicopter rides as well as places to eat, alongside new apartment developments.

The cosmopolitan resort of Sunny Beach is approx. 4km south of St Vlas. This larger and busier resort offers entertainment by day and night, with restaurants and cafes you’ll find Bulgarian favourites alongside English cuisine and fast food, as well as cocktail bars and clubs. The Blue Flag beach is a stunning 8km of golden sand, flanked by the Ermine and Balkan Mountains. You’ll find numerous water sports offered on the beach, plus mini golf and an aquapark.

By contrast the old town of Nessebar is small and picturesque, with narrow cobblestone streets. You’ll find fantastic seafood restaurants overlooking the sea, small bars and quaint shops. Located on a peninsular 9 km south of St. Vlas and connected by bridge, the island has been designated a UNESCO world heritage site, with many interesting museums and churches. Boat trips are available from Eden or from St Vlas marina. A taxi ride takes approx 15 minutes (20 Leva) or there is a bus service via Sunny Beach. There is also a small train that runs around Sunny beach to Nessebar.
