Weather

Definitely good weather is in the first dates of septmber. I'ts not too hot, average temperature. But in summer months is also good. We had been there in august and no problems with weather.

Holiday

I liked so kind and funny atmosphere in Sunny Beach. Also clean beach and sea. The biggest beach in Sunny has deserved an a Blue Flag in sign of the cleanness.
There you'll be able to enjoy a bulgarian traditional food in not expensive restaurants. In addition i recommend you to stay not in hotel. The reason is low level of service. Bulgarian hotels service is not same as for example in Turkey and Egypt. We accepted a solution to refrain and reserve a flat. We had founded a good flat close the sea on VPUT service - https://vput.ru/?lang=en , like airbnb but has more offers in Bulgaria. It was very cheap and comfortable to live in modern flat. Price for a one night was 25$. But you can find cheaper on the vput site.

After the bad weather in England, It was a pleasure to be on holiday in Sunny Beach .
The weather was amazing.
Getting up each morning and seeing the sun made this holiday worth every penny.

Holiday

This was the 6th time we have visited Sunny Beach and people greeted us with a welcoming smile and a friendly Good Morning. There is so much to do and see, the days slipped away

Sadly it rained a lot, however we did have three good days out of seven of red hot sun shine and even when it rained it was warm.

Holiday

The food was good, the people were friendly and as it was my first visit I can say I was pleasantly surprised. I would come again , but may be a little later in the year to guarantee sun shine.

Fantastic...fantastic...fantastic!
The sunny Beach is lovely, I never expected such a warm welcome from all the locals, they are so nice, they want you to see their country for what it is...friendly, pleasant, extremely clean, and very, VERY sunny!

We went for two weeks, the weather was very good, hot and sunny with the temperature in the high 20's apart from one cloudy day.

Holiday

We had a great holiday in sunny beach, we have been twice before. We stayed at Sun Village appartments which were very nice with a large pool, about 10mins walk to the beach and resort centre, the Aqua park was only a 5 mins walk.

Terrible rain floods in Sunny Beach.

Not any sun tanning done!

Was cool at night had to wear a coat to walk about, the wind also was strong - this is the first time I have ever seen so much bad weather.

Holiday

Ok but wouldn't go back because of the weather.

People are nice, food ok.

Beach would be good if weather was better.

Weather

Most of the days are sunny and hot.
It occasionally rains but the rain normally lasts no more than half an hour.

Holiday

I am a Bulgarian who has lived abroad for a number of years now. I have an apartment in Sunny Beach and even though I am having constant problems with the poor quality of the building works and the lack of proper management of the site I still love the place (and it's quite cheap in comparison with all the other summer resorts around Europe!).

The coast and the weather are simply unbeatable and the night life (which I as a real Bulgarian love) is great. Some people are complaining about the noise but that never bothers me or my family even though I have a young daughter. Hope this helps.

Weather

I have an apartment in Sunny Beach and was there for the first time in 2008 from 5 July until 14 September. The weather during that time was fabulous it got up to over 100 degrees and had to say in apartment for 3 days to stay out of the sun. Did have deluge of rain 3 times during the night but it was welcome in order to freshen the air. I believe after the 14 September it rained for a full 2 weeks, so maybe people should think about going eaqrlier in the year.

Holiday

There is loads of things to do. Plenty of nightlife, especially for the young crowd.
Loads of bars, nightclubs and restaurants.

Sunny beach was a nice place there is a some good things to do like hiring a golf buggy but you need to shop about for the best price :we payed 20 Lev but a lot were charging 30 and 40 Lev
There are lots of restaurants and bars but the food is'nt good.but thats only my opinion.

Weather

We had 3 days of sun(approx 5hrs per day)rest of week was dull cold and very wet,
Even had a thunderstorm,which to the locals the weather is normal like English weather.
Coats and jumpers needed.
Night were like at home.
Only thing that spoiled the holiday was the Sunny Beach weather.

Holiday

Hotel was lovely (Chaika hotel.)
Would return. has 2 bars 1 is a smokers haven,no entertainment but think this is in all Bulgarian hotels. Brochure stated most rooms sea view but this is'nt true. Cleaned everyday.
Food was what is expected at a buffet.
Could'nt do it for 2 weeks though. when checking in your bags are taken up to room but a tip is waited for,make sure you have small notes!
If using a courtesy room I suggest you pay to keep room on as it has only a bathroom and seating area, no sockets for hair appliances, fine for the blokes.
Expect to pay for using toilets in bars and when eating out. This is 0.50lev. but this keeps them clean etc

The weather was excellent.
Beautiful sunny days and mild evenings.
Never really got too hot.
On the one day it did rain the skies opened it poured rain and a few hours later you would not even have known it had rained.

Holiday

Brilliant holiday lots to see and do you can go on boat trips to bordering countries ie turkey for next to nothing.
Food and drink is really cheap but absolutely delicious.
