our past reviews:
1) 5/5 Stayed Aug 2017 Mrs Sarah R. A thoroughly enjoyable and relaxing holiday in a superbly equipped and presented property.We had a wonderful family holiday staying at the villa. The layout of the villa ensured everyone had plenty of space however also allowed everyone to g
et together for meal times. It was wonderful to be able to escape the family in the apartment room!, Everywhere was very clean and while we were there the pool was cleaned twice. The outdoor space was fantastic and many happy hours were spent in the pool.We used public buses and taxi's and managed to get around the area. Eating out was extremely reasonable and we were made to feel welcome to Bulgaria

2) Fantastic holiday 5/5 Stayed Jul 2017 Dawn B. Had a fantastic time in the rising Sun villa. The listing was accurate in every way. The property is very clean and highly maintained. I would definitely recommend this villa to anybody because it is a very high standard and worth every penny. The kids loved having there own pool and we enjoyed the sunbathing 😁😁. Would highly recommend hiring a car.
3) Comfortable large villa 5/5 Stayed Aug 2015 William M. Comfortable and well equipped, this villa has everything you need to enjoy your stay near Varna. Beaches are nearby with fine sand and warm seas. Varna itself has plenty going on and has a great atmosphere.There's a separate apartment which may suit you well if you're in a larger group.

Fantastic week in the Rising Sun villa5/5 Stayed Aug 2014
We have just enjoyed a fantastic week in the Rising Sun villa. We are a family of 4 adults and 3 children and cannot praise this villa highly enough. The details sent to us beforehand by Trevor and Liz where really comprehensive and they were more than happy to be on hand to answer any questions. The villa itself is beautiful and exceptionally clean. Every little detail has been thought of, there are games and books in the cupboards and I cannot think of anything you might need which wasn't there. The villa is also disabled friendly which is a rare and welcome thing. The details of local areas of interest such as beaches and day trips are all in the villa and we enjoyed several trips into the town. We didn't have a car but the bus service is reliable and the taxis cheap. Mainly we spent days lounging by the pool (inflatables provided) and cooking from the wonderful fresh produce available in Bulgaria. We often stay in villas around Europe and this is truly one of the nicest we have ever stayed in. All in all, a wonderful week. Thanks Trevor and Liz.
6) The Murphy family.Great Villa 5/5 Stayed Jul 2014
Great villa in a lovely village and very well equipped. Fully fitted kitchen, TV/Sky/DVD/Wi-Fi should you need, a few indoor/outdoor games, air con - prefect. Pool was really warm, garden lovely, villa really clean & well-presented. Trevor & Liz couldn't have been more helpful; always on hand to help out or offer advice before and during the holiday. They even organized a local hotel to print our boarding cards for us for the return flight! Location is great. We would recommend a car although we didn't try the local bus/taxi services which are apparently pretty good. There are a couple of small shops and a local bar within 6-800 metres. Quite a few local restaurants which are great, but not all speak English or have an English menu, so take a phrase book or smart-phone translation app. Cheap to live as well. On average we spent about 80-100 leva (£30-40) on a family meal for 5 with two courses including drinks. Local towns are great, and supermarkets are quite close. Varna is worth a few trips; nice pedestrian area for shopping, eating or just walking. Highlights of the location are. Local beaches and beach-side restaurants/bars. Varna town (either park down a side street, or at the Dolphinarium and walk through the Sea Gardens to the town). Sea Gardens in Varna. Dolphinarium in Varna (if you want to do it, book the swimming with dolphins experience before you go - we didn't and it was fully booked). scuba diving with Erica fully qualified teacher. Brilliant for first-timers/kids. On the whole we were very impressed with Bulgaria, and the weather was perfect. Outstanding! 5/5 Stayed Aug 2013 Firstly, we cannot praise Trevor & Liz highly enough. They were so helpful from the moment we booked our holiday right up until we arrived back home. The villa itself is perfect. It is light, airy, extremely well equipped and very comfortable. The garden and pool are fantastic. We all had lots of fun and considering there were 7 of us, there was enough space to not feel as though you were on top of each other. We would highly recommend this villa if a member of your family has a disability as it has been built with this in mind, including stairlift and raised toilets. The amenities are more than adequate and it appears that Trevor & Liz have thought of everything you could possibly need during your stay. Our 5 children whos ages range from 17 to 5 always had something to occupy them whether it be a boardgame or DVD in the evening or utilising the spacious garden/pool in the day. We would suggest that it is better to have car hire, however, the buses run frequently and stop across the road from the villa so you can always get around. There is plenty of information in the villa regarding transport, eating out, beaches etc etc. This holiday was perfect...right down to the neighbours who kindly furnished us with their home grown produce and always had a cheery smile and wave. All in all, it was absolutely perfect. You MUST try this!!
7) Lovely Villa 4/5 Stayed Jul 2013 Zoe The Rising Sun villa is beautiful. The views of the rolling hills and the Black Sea are wonderful. The villa is incredibly well equipped with everything you could possibly need and more and was very clean when we arrived. It has large spacious rooms and floor to ceiling windows so is very light and airy. The pool is fab and the kids have loved splashing around every day.The owners Trevor and Liz have been great and have done everything they can to make our stay comfortable including providing baby monitors, cot sheets etc. The villa is incredibly suitable for families with very young and older children and has enough room for extended family too. Bulgarian Villa 5/5 Stayed Aug 2019 Peter S This was a superb villa, one of the best we have stayed at. The villa was well appointed with everthing we needed and the pool and BBQ were some of the best we have used.Trevor and Elizabeth were extremely helpful all the way through from booking and during are stay. We would recommend this villa to anyone.
8) A lovely stay in a beautiful Villa 4/5 Stayed Aug 2018 Lorraine R. We spent 10 wonderful days in this lovely place in August 2018. The villa itself lived up to all our expectations. It was clean, spacious, fully equipped with everything and more you would need for your stay. The location was good for access to shops, bars and restaurants, although we would highly recommend car hire as it is quite remote and nothing is really 'walk-able'. There was plenty of information available to guide you towards local restaurants and beaches, all of which were lovely to visit.We had a day out in Nessebar Old Town which was lovely, and we included a visit to the Aqua Park. Top Tips - take teabags! I noticed this tip on one of the pages on the owners direct app and we were glad we did as they are hard to source in the supermarkets. Thank you for allowing us to hire their beautiful villa. We will certainly be recommending you to friends and family
9) Beautiful Villa and pool, Very well equipped 5/5 Stayed Jul 2018
Ian M. We had 2 adults, 2 teenagers and 2 kids and the Villa gave us all the space we needed. Lovely Pool, Sun all day long and 3 separate outdoor areas to eat, .drink etc. Very impressed how well equipped it was, games, books, inflatables, tons of kitchen equipment and more info about the local area and Bulgaria than I could read in my 8 days. I also appreciated all the little helpful things like soap in all the bathrooms, plenty of adaptors and an electric mosquito repeller in every room. Personally I would recommend having a car as the village is quite isolated if you're on foot and buses seemed a bit erratic at times.Taxis were very cheap and reasonable but the address was difficult to convey by phone so getting back to the villa was easy, but getting a taxi to come to the Villa proved difficult. However once I hired a car everywhere was a short easy drive. The area is lovely, the local beaches great and Varna is an exciting vibrant place with all you expect from a City. The owners were very helpful and responded immediately to any requests and queries and were very accomodatingl and flexible concerning times and transfers. In summary this is a beautiful Villa in a great setting and I thoroughly recommend it to anyone (I like)
Lovely large villa, good amenities and facilities
First time holidaying in Bulgaria, wasn't disappointed, people are very helpful and accommodating
10) 5/5 Stayed Aug 2017 Mark A. We loved the Rising Sun Villa, it was spacious and comfortable for our family group of 7. The pool was clean and big enough for all of us to swim, play games, and cool down. There was plenty of cutlery, crockery, pots, pans etc. and the dishwasher kept it all clean. We watched a couple of DVDs and the wifi meant that everyone could get their own entertainment.Small local shops are a few minutes walk and everything else is a car or bus ride (no.46) costing 1 Lev for any journey. The air-con in each bedroom meant we slept comfortably. The air-con in the main room allowed us to escape the heat of the day when required.The apartment at the top (1 bedroom + shower) has a separate front door so we could chill but we did allow the others to visit and share the great view. :) Three toilet/shower rooms and one with a bath was plenty with no need for fights or long queues. Service was great, we were met at the airport with keys and the pool man visited mid-stay. We even had a minor water leak but the plumber was there within 30 minutes of a call to the owner and it was fixed in an hour. The washing machine enabled us to return home with most of our clothes already clean. The owners allowed us to match our stay to the best flights rather than insisting on saturday-saturday. The local people were friendly, I just wish I had learned a bit of the language.
