no problem kel any questions you have dont be shy

The ice for your drinks is safe they make it from bottled water

If you do suffer from anything from mosi bites or badly burnt see who i call the witch doctor his shop is just outside the main entrance or there a pharmacy outside turn right about 300 yrds down on the right.

If you smoke l&MS are good pay around 60 egp for 200 or at marma bay i paid 100 egp for 400

Marma bay is expensive for alchohol you can pay aroun £8 british pounds for a vodka

old market and marma bay the hotel runs a free bus on a tuesday evening an thursday but i do stress be down for 9am to book a seat as it fills up quick

Taxi,s..the hotel has its own taxi,s aswell they charge 40 egp to take you to marma bay but its cheaper to get a crazy taxi there blue and white and you can get them outside hotel but agree on price before getting in if not they will rip you off.

be careful in markets always one remain at door they might lock you in.

stay out the perfume shops hospitality is not what there showing you they just want you to sit down so they can rip you off.

Hi, I am going early November taking my mum who is recovering from a broken ankle!!! Looking at other reports I am going to email and ask for a ground floor overlooking the quiet pool, would you recommend this? Might sound a stupid question but are there loos on the beach? Thanks :cheers

How much should a crazy taxi be to Narma Bay?
Reply
for the crazy taxi you have to haggle the price before you sit in it you have to haggle with them the hotel taxi,s are 40 egp to narma bay so in a crazy taxi haggle lower than that befor you set foot in in rember agree on price before you sit in it

Just another quick question - How long do you suggest before you go is the best time to email the hotel?
Reply
about 1 month before you go as i say ask for room 1032 or there abouts on same side you look on to the pool and have patio doors so you can just go right out to the pools aswell for clean towels in your room just throw them on the toilet floor the cleaner will be in everyday and clean your room fresh bedlinin everday and they even make stuff out of your towels we had swans ,crocidile and a boat all inc drinks are vodka what is fine whisky give that a miss its horrible brandy beer gin and anniseed stuff they also make up some mad cocktails aswell whats part of all inc and no worries down beach its very tidy and the hotel suplly,s towels on beach aswell

Is the recomendation to take your own plastic tumbler for the beer or would you advise it for spirits aswell?

dennieswife you one of these complainers what put stuff on these things cause there was no chips on the menu lol

some good stuff here.
I'm usually only in the Bulgaria bits. But I'm having a wee change in December for a week.

I now know that the restaurants that get good reports on here are usually good; well the Sunny Beach and St Vlas reports are spot on.
So where is worth a visit when we venture out from St George Three Corners ?
Any within walking range?
Any good bars ?
Reply
hi just jo there a couple of bars near the hotel but there nothing to write home about . narma bay is your best bet for night life action the hotels animations team have orginized trips to the good nightclubs so if you see them they will help you out on that side or altenitive jump a taxi.
