hi champ,some advice you will read of quite often is do not use the change booths that seem to be on every street corner,they will rip you off,stick to hotels and banks,only take clean notes.any with small tears or writing on will not be accepted.
as for food you can get whatever you want.the meats fab and its very cheap to eat and drink around the resort.loads of bars and eateries.dead cheap, :glynis

Hi Champ,me and the family are booked in there too on the 17 th of july.
Been having the same problem as yourself,there is no information about this hotel readily available.
All i can suggest is you go to the official iberostar website and email them from there.
I posted about this ages ago,if you have a look through the older posts you may find it and there is a guy who posted on it who told me he was in contact with the hotel manager who told him work was nearly finished and would be completed by early 2005,and that only some small tidying up was left to do.
Don`t know how true this was but i can tell you iam getting a bit nervous about this and will be talking to my travel agents very soon just to confirm the hotel is indeed finished.

but got a letter just before christmas from first choice saying it wont be ready we go the 3rd June. We had to change accomodation and are now staying at the victoria palace. I myself emailed the hotel and they said it would be ready in may so I am annoyed with first choice. The only thing is that the newly built hotels over there tend to have lots of teething problems so I dont know wether it is for the best but the hotel does sound brill if its all its cracked up to be.

Diane,

so.... your travel agency says it will NOT be done , and the hotel says it WILL be done, strange that they dont cooperate on this issue .
i talked to me travel agency and they seemed to have gotten info from the hotel owners about the progress .

Maybe this is just First Choice having learned their lesson from last year's Royal Park fiasco, and being overly cautious??

Hi all,

We are staying(hopefully) in this hotel in July 05, I found this info in a press release on Iberostar website.

Openings in the Eastern Mediterranean and North Africa:

- In Montenegro, a new destination for Iberostar on the coast of the Adriatic, the Iberostar Bellevue will open in May.
- In Greece, the Iberostar Regency Beach in Corfu and the Iberostar Mirabello Hotel & Village in Crete will be inaugurated in spring.
- In Tunisia the Iberostar Solaria and the Iberostar Belisaire, both with their own thalasso-therapy centre, will open their doors in spring.
- In Bulgaria, the Iberostar Sunny Beach Resort, on the shores of the Black Sea, will take in its first guests at the beginning of the summer.

Hi,

We are seven people going to Iberostar Sunny Beach Resort 21 st of June.
After reading this discussion I was a bit worried, and called my Norwegian Agency Apollo to ask them. They told me that the Hotel will be ready when the season starts in May. Otherwise they would have been notified long time ago.

Apollo is in my opinion a good and thrustworty travel agency, so I believe it will be ready.

Anyhow, I promise to post a reply here as soon as I get down there to give you a update on the hotel.

Are you an Norwegian Champ? If you want some info about Sunny Beach and Bulgaria, you can email me and I`ll give you some tips.
This will be my third trip to Bulgaria, and if this trip is half the fun I`ve had the two times before it will be a perfect holiday.

my worries is that they will open this hotell without it being completley finished , like parts of the hotel is done but not all etc etc , i want it ALL done before i go :-)
BTW: im from Tromsø ... where are you from ?

I have stayed in an Iberostar hotel in Tunisia twice and it was fantastic. The hotel was spotlessly clean and the food and drinks of a good standard.
I hope this hotel opens on time as I'm sure it will be fab!

We are 7 people from Fredrikstad, so we are typical "søringa", but two of us have family in Vesterålen and around Narvik.
I`ll let you know when i get there how it looks, and if its all finish.

Anyway, send me a e-mail if you want more info.

Just to let you know I emailed Iberostar direct and they have advised me that this hotel will be ready to receive it's first visitors on 1st June. But couldn't provide any photographs as yet!
