Saint Vlas, Bulgaria. From small fishing village to luxury seaside resort

A bit of history of St. Vlas


Saint Vlas, Bulgaria. Bird's-eye view. Photo: Marina Sunrise Complex

It is not surprising that the first settlement arose here as early as the 2nd century BC. Thracians, Greeks, and later Turks, chose the southern slopes Balkan mountains for their dwellings. Pirates, at one time, also did not disdain this place, leaving behind only death, destruction and ashes. “Thanks” to precisely such pirate raids, as well as the frequent change of power and religion in the region, the remains of only one of the 5 monasteries that existed in Saint Vlas. This is a monastery Saint Andrew the First-Called". Nowadays, in this place there is a chapel, and not far from it is a spring, the water from which is revered local residents as healing, especially for eye diseases.

At the same time, it is known that the Greeks called this place Larissa, Turks - Monastery. The city acquired its real name in the 14th century, in honor of the patron saint of shepherds and merchants. Since 1963, Saint Vla It becomes known as a seaside resort, mainly among the inhabitants of Bulgaria and mainly due to its microclimate.

modern history Saint Vlas can be divided into two fundamentally different periods: before 2000 and after. Until 2000, family houses and hotels of 2-3 floors dominate here, in a pronounced Eastern European style. So far, construction is only allowed on building plots, i.e. Northern part town, at the foot Balkan mountains. After 2000, development becomes more and more aggressive and moves to agricultural land and pastures, i.e. the southern part Saint Vlas, across main road, closer to the sea.

Construction is not united in a certain style, and today we can observe the first, second and even third line from the sea, built up with hotels and tourist complexes.

Local residents say that over the past 10 years the number of buildings on the territory of St. Vlas has increased by 2.5 times.

Of course, someone suffered from such a rapid development, but someone naturally won. But the fact remains that today, Saint Vlas, with its well-developed infrastructure, is perfect place not only for summer vacation, but also permanent place residence.

Saint Vlas, Bulgaria. Great place to stay with children in Bulgaria

Saint Vlas is popular mainly among couples with children, those who simply appreciate peace and quiet, would like to improve their health, as well as among wealthy Bulgarians. Therefore, the resort remains quiet and calm, even in the midst of the summer season.

So, do not worry - at night you will not be awakened by loud music and screams of drunken youth, as, for example, in the center Sunny Beach. Whatever it is, remember! If you still get tired of enjoying this peaceful environment, Sunny Beach and are just a few minutes drive from Saint Vlas.

Accommodations in Saint Vlas: hotels, apartments, family hotels, private sector

Despite its well-developed infrastructure and close proximity to popular Sunny Beach and , Saint Vlas still not well known internationally. Yes, Bulgarians have been visiting this resort since the beginning of 1963, but Russians and Poles, for example, discovered Saint Vlas relatively recently.

The southern part of the town is the most developed and attractive for international tourists, because it is located near the beach and the yacht port. Northern, Bulgarian part Saint Vlas, offers its guests something more: tradition, history and incomparable panoramic views of the sea and mountains.

Hotels, boarding houses and tourist complexes in Saint Vlas- countless. Once, I decided to count them, but gave up this useless business. Hotels in Sveti Vlas are mostly 2-3 star, although there are 4 and even 5 star hotels. I would not pay attention to 5 stars, because by European standards, these are still four, or even 3-star hotels.

The main rule when choosing a hotel in Bulgaria: if the hotel has a category of 4 stars, then it is most likely three stars, if 3, then it is two ... and so on.

Private apartments do not have star ratings, but are one of the best and cheapest options when choosing a place to stay in Saint Vlas. Moreover, there are plenty of newly built complexes here. And when there is competition, then the prices are quite low, and the standards are high.
