ST VLAS HOTELS

The Sveti Vlas (St.Vlass) village has about 3,000 inhabitants and is situated just 4 km to the north of Sunny Beach resort and 9 km away from the town of Nessebar. It lies in the skirts of the Stara Planina mountain (also called the Balkan mountain) and thus offers a beautiful combination of sea and mountain climate, considered favourable for those suffering from lung diseases. The adjacent beaches are of a total length of about 1km and average width of 16 metres. The eastern end of the village's adjacent coastal line hosts the small port of local fishermen. The village of Sveti Vlas (St. Vlass) is believed to have been founded by the Thracian tribe of Larisi in the 2nd century BC. At that time, it reportedly bore the name of Larisa. It was renamed 'Sveti Vlas' in the 14th century AC after the patron saint of cattle growers and merchants. The numerous private hotels of Sveti Vlas offer a variety of styles and high-quality service, making the small village a preferred destination for holidaymakers.
