Sveti Konstantin

Introducing Sveti Konstantin

Sveti Konstantin is a small, fairly sedate beach resort about 9km northeast of Varna, with hotels attractively spaced out amongst parkland. Established in 1946 under the name of Druzhba (Friendship), it was later renamed Sveti Konstantin and Sveti Elena, but is now more commonly known simply as Sveti Konstantin. It’s less commercial than other resorts and has long been popular with older holidaymakers; it still has a number of ‘rest homes’ for retired civil servants and trade union members, and the resort is famous for its therapeutic mineral waters and health treatments. There are several new, upscale hotels geared towards young families, but this isn’t the place for water sports or raucous nightlife.
