Staying in Tsarevo
Tsarevo is a small coastal town with a central beach, a port and a compact centre of shops and restaurants, and it sits within easy reach of the Strandzha Mountains. The surrounding area is a string of resort and village areas: Lozenets just to the north, Arapya to the south between the sea and the mountains, and Sinemorets further south near the Turkish border. The pace is calm compared to larger Bulgarian resorts.
The hotels on this list are spread across the town and its neighbouring areas. Several sit in or near the town centre, including Studios Grace Port Tsarevo at 0.3 km, Timeless Sea at 0.5 km, Hiora Apartments Vasiliko at 0.7 km, Hermes Club Hotel Ultra All Inclusive at 0.9 km and La Mer 2 at 0.9 km.
