Budget holidays at sea - the most relevant topic in the summer. You can organize a vacation for yourself not only in Russia, but also abroad.
About tickets...
Self-guided trips to resorts are usually much cheaper than package tours. But this rule does not always work. For a number of foreign destinations, it is sometimes cheaper to purchase a last-minute tour, the cost of which may even be lower than the flight. You can choose such trips on the relevant resources.
Rules for finding a budget holiday
If you plan to independently organize a budget vacation at sea for yourself, then you should be guided by the following rules:
- The first thing that will help save money is the refusal to rest during the high season. When planning a vacation, you should focus on the beginning or end of the season. For domestic resorts, this is May, early June and September. Firstly, at this time there is no such tangible heat, and secondly, the sea is warm. And yes, prices vary greatly. If swimming in the sea is not a matter of principle for you, and you are ready to relax by the pool and go on excursions, then in countries such as Bulgaria and Turkey, you can economically relax from October to April. During this period, even the most luxurious hotels give significant discounts, so the rest becomes much more affordable. Many foreign resort complexes have heated pools that save the day when the sea is cold.
- If you want to spend holidays in Bulgaria and Turkey, then you should opt not for half board, but for the beloved concept. Initially, it may seem to you that you are overpaying extra money, but in fact, purchasing drinks and food will cost you much more.
- In order to organize the most budgetary vacation at sea abroad, you need to purchase last-minute tours or use the early booking service.
- Do not forget that the rest alone is much more expensive than in the company.
Sochi and Adler
Sochi and Adler are the obvious solution for a budget seaside vacation in Russia. Tickets for the Moscow-Adler plane are relatively inexpensive - from about 5800 rubles. The Pobeda low-cost airline still flies in this direction. In this company, you can buy cheaper tickets - from a thousand rubles, but it should be borne in mind that they are quickly taken apart.
You can rent a house in Sochi from 20 dollars (1200 rubles), in Adler it is much cheaper - from 10 dollars (600 rubles). You can eat at the resorts in budget canteens.
In Sochi, inexpensive rooms are offered by three-star hotels Roza Vetrov and Valentin, the cost of a double room in them will cost 3000 and 3200 rubles per day. For a resort, such prices can be considered quite democratic. Both establishments have a good location - in the heart of the city.
The two-star complex "Nairi" offers double rooms with a balcony for 2700 rubles. The hotel has a sauna, bar, massage, swimming pool and much more.
Fans of comfortable rooms and good service can recommend the four-star establishments Park Inn by Radisson and Zhemchuzhina, a stay in them per day will cost 4,600 and 5,200 rubles, respectively.
Accommodation in Adler
For those who are planning a budget seaside vacation in Russia, Adler can be an ideal option. The resort has not only expensive hotels, but also quite budgetary establishments and even guesthouses. The choice of housing is quite large. Among the tested hotels, we can recommend the three-star Almira (3,000 rubles) with excellent rooms and good service, the more expensive Vesna complex (5,000 rubles), which has the most positive reviews and excellent infrastructure (swimming pool, sauna, tennis courts, massage).
Accommodation in four-star hotels in Adler will cost a little more. "AS-Hotel" offers double apartments from three thousand rubles. This is a fairly budget option, since in more eminent establishments rooms cost from seven thousand rubles.
Crimea
Speaking about a budget vacation at sea with children, you should pay attention to the Crimea. In 2017, the cost of a Moscow-Simferopol ticket by plane will cost about 7,000 rubles, and in autumn and spring it will be even cheaper. From Simferopol you can get to any resort on the peninsula.
Budget food in Sudak, for example, will cost 200-300 rubles in the dining room (dinner, lunch, breakfast). If you want to order food in restaurants, then the amount of food expenses will increase to 500 rubles.
The most budgetary seaside vacation in Russia can only be provided if you live in the private sector. In Crimea, for example, you can choose small villages for recreation - Olenevka, Nikolaevka, Shtormovoe. In such places in guest houses you can find rooms even for three hundred rubles a day. In larger and more famous resorts, prices are higher. The minimum cost of living increases to 600 rubles per room. The average cost of living in 2017 in the private sector starts from a thousand rubles for a double apartment. In general, the villages can be safely considered as a budget holiday on the Black Sea with children.
As for food, various eateries and canteens, national cafes, canteens at guest houses with home cooking, and fast food establishments can be considered as a budget option. Remember that the more you move away from the coast, the lower the price of food. In canteens and inexpensive cafes you can eat for two hundred rubles, and in an inexpensive restaurant for at least 400 rubles. Food prices are more democratic in small resort villages. Accommodation and food in Yalta will cost much more than in other places, although budget places can be found here.
Sea of Azov resorts
Budget holidays on the Sea of Azov can be offered in the villages of Peresyp, Kuchugury and Ilyich. These small villages have good sandy beaches and little developed infrastructure. Here you can find accommodation mainly in guest houses and the private sector.
It will cost a little more to stay in the village of Golubitskaya and Yeisk, which has pretty decent hotels, an embankment, a cafe and a park. Stanitsa Golubitskaya also has a well-developed infrastructure. There is a nightclub, water rides, mini-hotels and Renting a house in the village of Ilyich in 2017 will cost 1.5-3 thousand rubles, in Taman and Peresyp - up to 2.5 thousand rubles, and in the village of Golubitskaya - up to 6 thousand rubles. Accommodation in the private sector costs an average of 250-600 rubles per person per day.
The resort villages of the Sea of Azov are not so developed, but they are incredibly convenient for families with children. The warm shallow sea is the best place for kids.
Italy
If you are looking for options for a budget vacation at sea in European countries, then you should pay attention to Italy. From Moscow you can take inexpensive tickets to the main cities of the country - Milan, Rome, Venice. The cost of a flight to these destinations is always cheaper (from 9,000 rubles) than to small cities. And directly to the resorts can be reached by local buses.
A budget seaside vacation in Italy can be organized at one of the most famous resorts - Rimini. Of course, accommodation in local hotels cannot be called cheap - from $35 per room per night, but such offers are quite rare. On average, it is worth focusing on 50-100 dollars a day. In terms of meals, the minimum cost for breakfast is $4, lunch is $7, and dinner is over $10.
It is worth noting that Rimini is known for its beaches and warm water with shallow entry, so the resort is perfect for a budget seaside vacation with children. The resort has a well-developed infrastructure and a good selection of hotels for every taste and budget. Rimini is also in demand among young people.
Bulgaria
In Bulgaria, you can organize the most budgetary holidays on the Black Sea abroad, which is why all local resorts are incredibly popular among tourists. Sunny Beach is considered the most democratic place to stay. Fine sand on the beaches and a gentle entrance to the sea have long been loved by supporters of beach and sea holidays. The coast has a width of about forty meters, and in length it stretches for eight kilometers. In modest hotels, you can rent a small room for $19 per night.
An even more budgetary vacation on the Black Sea can only be in small Bulgarian seaside villages and towns. In such areas there are many two- and three-star hotels, as well as guest houses in the private sector. Locals often rent out the upper floors of their houses to tourists. Holidays in Kranevo, Balchik, Nessebar, St. Vlas, Pomorie, Ravda and Tsarevo can be economical.
Sometimes tours to Bulgarian resorts can be purchased at very affordable prices (from 20 thousand rubles). And promotional offers can be even more attractive. And this despite the fact that the cost of the tour includes accommodation, flights, insurance and transfers.
Bulgaria is interesting for many travelers because it offers a budget seaside vacation in September. At this time, the air temperature drops to +25 degrees, there is no summer heat and heat, and the sea water remains warm. In September it is good to have a rest in Nessebar, Sofia, Sozopol, Balchik, Plovdiv and Varna. The cost of living in the resorts is reduced, because there is no large influx of tourists.
Croatia
Budget holidays at sea abroad can offer Croatia. The cost of a ticket from Moscow to Dubrovnik, Pula or Split in both directions is 13 thousand rubles. In such well-known hotel prices are quite high. You can rent an economy room for $30. And, for example, in Dubrovnik, you will have to pay at least $ 40 for a night in a guesthouse, while the institution will be located far from the historical center. The cost of rooms in four-star hotels starts at $130.
If you consider small towns, such as Plat and Cavtat, as a vacation spot, you can save a lot. Resort villages offer clear sea, clean air and beautiful beaches on the Adriatic coast. What else do you need for a holiday with children?
Cyprus
Cyprus can also be considered as a place for a budget vacation at sea in the summer. The cost of a flight from Moscow to Larnaca in the summer is about 10,600 rubles. Aircraft of the Pobeda airline now fly to Cyprus. Sometimes flying into a country can be incredibly budget-friendly, especially if you're lucky enough to take advantage of a promotion from one of the airlines. But it is not so easy to save money on living in Cyprus. The most budget rooms in Limassol, Larnaca and Paphos cost at least $33 per night. On average, the cost of rooms in hotels ranges from 40-60 dollars.
Meals in an inexpensive institution will cost up to $ 50 per day per person. For those who want to save money, we can recommend buying food in supermarkets. As a budget option, you can rent a studio with a kitchen, then you will have the opportunity to greatly reduce food costs.
Greece
A more budget option for a seaside holiday, unlike Cyprus, can be arranged in Greece. A flight from Moscow to Athens or Thessaloniki will cost about 8,800 rubles. But tickets to Corfu, Crete and Rhodes are much more expensive (12,000 rubles).
Accommodation in the most inexpensive hotel in Thessaloniki will cost about $ 25 per day for a double apartment, in Crete - $ 29. But in Rhodes you can find cheaper establishments, for $ 17 you will be offered a completely acceptable room.
Budget food in an inexpensive cafe will cost an average of about $15 per day (dinner - 6, lunch - 5, and breakfast - 4 dollars). On average, a vacation in Greece will cost a tourist at least $250-350 per week.
Türkiye
Like it or not, but Turkey again leads the list of countries with seaside resorts. It is in it that the most budgetary vacation at sea abroad. Many Russians have chosen Turkish resorts and have long felt at home there. Here you can not only relax comfortably on the Black or Mediterranean Sea, but also go shopping, as well as see local beauties and sights. The main advantage of Turkish hotels is excellent animation, good infrastructure and, of course, All Inclusive.
The cost of holidays in Turkey depends on the season, resort and season. So, for example, a vacation in Antalya costs about $200, in Kemer - $250, but in Istanbul - $350. A two-week tour for two can be purchased at prices ranging from $1,000 to $1,500. And if you're lucky and manage to find a last-minute vacation, then the most budget vacation at sea in the fall can cost half as much as in the season. Russians give preference to Turkish resorts for the opportunity to have a good rest and food, for numerous sights and the cleanest sea.
Egypt
Egypt, along with Turkey, leads the list of budget countries for seaside holidays. This direction has long been studied by the Russians. Egypt offers tourists good service, warm climate, good infrastructure and plenty of entertainment. All this can be obtained for $ 250 for a week's vacation.
The gentle sun, the Red Sea and "all inclusive" - this is what tourists seek to get to Egypt for. Do not forget that local attractions are of great interest - the most ancient architectural monuments: the Sphinx, the pyramids, Luxor. These places are a must visit place for every traveler.
Thailand
Another budget option for a seaside holiday is Thailand. This country is no less popular as a beach resort than Egypt and Turkey. The high season in Thailand starts around mid-autumn and ends at the beginning of winter. Therefore, the most budget tours are in May and April.
A ten-day vacation in Thailand will cost 700-800 dollars. Experienced tour operators believe that it is in this country that you can relax the cheapest in 2017. This is due to the fact that in any region of the country you can have a great rest for 15-25 dollars. per day. If you decide to visit the country on your own, then you should expect that you will need about $ 400 per month for housing if you rent an apartment in the center of Pattaya.
But on such islands as Chang, Phuket, Phi Phi, Koh Samui, you can rent a room for only 150-200 dollars per month. If you do not classify yourself as a spoiled person, then you will find a room for $90.
The advantage of a holiday in Thailand is that the products here are incredibly cheap. And because food costs mere pennies. A hundred dollars a month will be enough for food. In any cafe for two dollars you can have a delicious lunch, and lunch in a restaurant will cost six dollars.
Vietnam
Vietnam is an amazingly beautiful place. Here you can find many places, almost untouched by human hand. In recent years, the popularity of Vietnamese resorts has been growing more and more. And despite this, holidays in the country remain as affordable as ever. For ten dollars a day in Vietnam, you can live, eat, go on excursions and go for a massage. And if you have $ 20 a day in your budget, you can generally not deny yourself anything. For a wonderful vacation for a month, it is enough to have $400-500 in your pocket (not counting the cost of the flight).
Goa (India)
Goa is also one of the popular budget destinations. Here, with 100 dollars, you can have a great rest and not deny yourself anything, especially if you decide to visit North Goa.
Rest in the resort for Europeans is very cheap, especially away from cities. The cost of a holiday in Goa increases in winter, because at this time the high season begins.
For a budget holiday, you can recommend purchasing a ticket in the off-season, then the tour, together with the flight, can cost from $ 400. If you prefer to stay not in a hotel, but in a cheap guesthouse, you can save up to 30% of your budget. Goa is popular among our compatriots due to its good tropical climate and the opportunity to relax almost all year round.
Abkhazia
Do not forget that Abkhazia can also offer a budget holiday at sea. Since it is located next to Russia, there is no need to spend money on an expensive flight. Many tourists go to Abkhazia because of the opportunity to have an inexpensive vacation on the Black Sea, especially since Russians do not need any additional documents (passports and visas). And the road to the Abkhazian resorts does not take much time.
If your budget is not too large, then you can stay in the private sector, where the cost of budget housing ranges from 300-350 rubles per person per day. More comfortable apartments will cost about 500 rubles. In general, a week-long vacation without a trip will require from you approximately 5600 to 10 thousand rubles per tourist. In the private sector, accommodation is much cheaper than in boarding houses and sanatoriums. If we talk about a budget holiday in Abkhazia, then you will need about 22 thousand rubles for two. Having 30 thousand rubles, you can also afford to see the beautiful sights of this amazing region.

In addition, there are fewer tourists on the sea in Abkhazia - the main thing is to drive away from Sukhumi to resort places, and then you can find a very inexpensive vacation on the seashore. Right on the beach!
How to get to Abkhazia
From Moscow or St. Petersburg directly to Sukhumi can be inexpensively reached by train. On the road 38 and 45 hours.
Either from another city in Russia by train or plane to Sochi (Adler) airport, and from there trains and buses go to Sukhumi, the journey takes 2-3 hours.
If you are driving on your own or through a checkpoint at the border across the Psou River, just get out and show your passport and documents for the car. Leave - through the same checkpoint. There are no difficulties at the border, a pure formality.
Where to stay
There are not many modern accommodation options in Abkhazia, mainly the “soviet” private sector, which is easy to book upon arrival. However, there are quite good guest houses and even excellent inexpensive hotels, but it is better to book them in advance in order to get a civilized one for the price of a “wild” vacation. It's possible! Here are some options.
For starters, you can stay near the city of Sukhumi and close to the sea - in the guest house "Rufina" - cheap, but quite comfortable.
We go further, where there are fewer tourists, and we find the Alamys guest house, ideal in terms of price and quality (see photos, reviews and prices), is conveniently located in the resort of Gudauta, near the Black Sea. There are comfortable sun loungers on the beach and there are no other tourists nearby. Clean sea, delicious food. You can admire the sea around the clock from the balcony of the room - you won’t be able to find anything like it on the first line by the sea in Sochi or Lazarevsky.
Sea holidays in Abkhazia - guest house "Alamys" In addition to the sea, Abkhazia has beautiful nature, delicious wine and food. And the prices! Probably, such low prices for sea holidays in Russia are nowhere to be found. Even a hotel with three meals a day costs 2 times cheaper than in Russia.
Napra in Abkhazia - an inexpensive recreation center with three meals a day
If on vacation you don’t want to think about where to eat, just go to the recreation center “Napra” and relax:

Before going on a trip, a novice tourist should make an analysis of the most popular places for summer holidays abroad. For example, you can make a list of resorts with the cheapest seaside vacations, quality service, beautiful beaches, and an inexpensive flight from Moscow.
The most budget countries for holidays
Over the past few years, the list of low-cost countries for recreation has remained more or less stable. But this is not a reason to skip the information provided by travel agencies, because this way you can find the most advantageous offers in time.
Türkiye
A country with large beaches of the Black and Mediterranean Seas. Numerous memorable places and the rich heritage of ancient cultures are simply mesmerizing. With a little haggling from local vendors, you can get a lot of things at a good price. You will definitely not be bored here: among the rich variety of restaurants, parks and attractions, tourists will definitely find something to their liking.
The cost of a trip for two will be about $ 1,500. You can reduce the price by almost half during the autumn holidays or when buying a last-minute tour.
The decisive factors that make up the total cost are the city, region, time of year and season. For example, the road to Kemer will cost a little more than 250 dollars, and to Antalya a little cheaper - 200 dollars. Rest in the capital starts from 370 dollars. The flow of tourists from Russia does not dry out, because here, in addition to affordable recreation near the sea coast under the warm sun, there are a lot of excursions and an all-inclusive system.
Greece
To visit this country, it is better to use vouchers. In this case, maximum savings are ensured, because thanks to the large selection of travel agencies, you can find a very reasonable price. A paid tour usually already includes the cost of accommodation, food, transport. Insurance is also included in the price, so the number of problems becomes much less.
Together with a family or a group of friends, you can have a great rest in the middle of the cradle of an ancient civilization, bringing home antique-themed souvenirs as a keepsake. A cafe for tourists offers an excellent menu, where the price of dishes starts from 4-6 euros. In ordinary canteens, where the Greeks themselves spend time, they will treat you to no less tasty food at a very pleasant price.
You can travel to numerous resort islands using ferries. A ticket for a night flight is inexpensive, while there is a good place to stay for the night.
A tourist who finds himself in the city has a choice of three main modes of transport:
metro - economical, but crowded;
bus - average in price, but with long delays;
Taxi is the fastest but most expensive means of transportation.
Cyprus, an equally popular destination, attracts a steady stream of tourists from Russia, despite the higher prices. If you need to save money, it is better to go on an independent vacation. You will have to spend about $ 200 on a ticket from Moscow, and early booking and buying at great deals will help you get a fairly large discount.
Catering places can hit the wallet quite noticeably, so the best way out for a budget tourist is to buy food in stores and cook meals on your own. Housing on the island is also not cheap. A room in a guest house will cost $30 per night, and a hotel room is even more expensive.
Spain
Spain is one of the popular European countries where you can spend your holidays. According to many tourists, holidays in Spain are quite expensive. But there are also places suitable for a budget vacation.
Costa Brava
A unique place that has amazingly beautiful nature and quality service. The rich history allows you to visit a large number of historical sites, such as the medieval fortress "Vila Vella". In summer it is very warm here, the air temperature is in the range of 18–28 °C. The temperature of the Mediterranean in summer is around 23°C. The Costa Brava has a lot of entertainment: you can bask on the beach, swim, visit the marine zoo "Marineland" or a water amusement park.
Costa Dorada
The literal translation sounds like the Gold Coast. The name speaks for itself, because it is here that the best beaches with golden sand are located. The nature of amazing beauty is the reason why every year thousands of vacationers choose this place for their holidays. In the Costa Dorada Reserve, you can see rare plants that are no longer found anywhere in the world.
Accommodation in a Spanish hotel is quite expensive for a budget tourist. But in areas located a little further from the center, you can rent housing at an affordable price. You can save on food if you buy products in stores and cook yourself. This is the most convenient option, because the prices for store products are not too high.
Serbia
If a trip is planned for a period of not more than 30 days, then a tourist from Russia will not even need a visa. Serbian health resorts attract tourists with their prices. They are much lower than in other European countries.
In winter, ski tourism flourishes here, and in summer - tours of ancient temples and Orthodox monasteries. The bewitching beauty of nature attracts tourists with picturesque plains and mountains.
Given the low cost of a taxi, which allows you to easily move to the desired places, the trip becomes doubly pleasant. Renting an apartment or a hotel in Belgrade will cost $14 per night, and a hostel will be half the price.
Serbian cuisine rightfully occupies one of the most worthy places in Europe. Even fast food will appeal to any tourist, and you can safely eat on the street even in the capital. There will be no harm to the tourist himself and his wallet, because the cost of such a snack will be a maximum of a couple of dollars.
Abkhazia
Proximity with Russia makes this country very attractive for tourism. This is one of the best vacation options on the Black Sea for the budget traveler. It is also important that Russian tourists do not need to apply for a passport and a visa, and the time spent on the road will be short.
With a modest budget, you can stay in the private sector, where daily accommodation will not exceed 300-350 rubles per person. Of course, there are more comfortable apartments here, the cost of which is about five hundred rubles. Approximately the same amount is spent on food during the day. In total, excluding travel, a week-long solo vacation in Abkhazia will cost about 5,500–10,000 rubles.
When you stay in hotels, rest will be much more expensive. For example, a two-bed room in a sanatorium or boarding house will cost from 2,000 to 10,000 rubles per day. With this in mind, even the most budgetary vacation for two, including all amenities, will require about 22,000. And if you spend a little more and round up the amount to 30,000, then enough for a sightseeing tour.
Bulgaria
To relax in Bulgaria, you need to apply for a Schengen visa. Therefore, you need to take care of the rest in Golden Sands and Sunny Beach in advance. Thanks to this, Bulgaria can become a beautiful, quiet place for tourists, in no way inferior to Turkey and Egypt.
Fortunately, holidays in Bulgaria are available to most travelers. Even in Sofia - the capital of Bulgaria - you can find housing for no more than 1000 rubles per day. Sofia is rich in history and many sights.
The Rose Valley is located just two hundred kilometers from Sofia. Many guests of the country dream of visiting this amazing place, because early in the morning you can see a flower show. No one will remain indifferent, watching the fabulous blooming of buds. The romantic performance ends with the arrangement of bouquets and the receipt of a gift - a small bottle of rose oil.
Those who love hiking should take care of comfortable sports shoes - they will definitely want to visit a unique place in the mountains of seven lakes. Beautiful waterfalls, mirror-clear water and reflection of the blue sky leave an unforgettable experience. Clean and absolutely safe beaches in Bulgaria attract many tourists.
Known to many, Sunny Beach is located between two cities: Burgas and Varna. The resort has more than 1000 hotels for every taste. You can choose a budget option, or, if funds allow, you can relax in a luxury hotel with an all-inclusive food system and animation. Sunny Beach is a great place for a beach holiday. Lifeguards working on the coast ensure the safety of vacationers. For the convenience of tourists, the sale of ice cream and boiled corn is organized.
Holidays in Russia
In Russia, rich in beautiful nature, there are beautiful places for a good vacation. Many Russian resorts are not inferior in quality to European ones. Sometimes the service and services offered are even better than abroad.
Anapa
The quality of the services offered for recreation is getting better. Most hotels use the all-inclusive offer, which includes 3 meals a day and a wide range of drinks.
Offers in the private sectors of Anapa are also characterized by comfortable living conditions. For example, rooms are equipped with new equipment and modern technology. Rented rooms are usually freshly renovated.
In Anapa, there are many sanatoriums offering not just relaxation, but individually selected wellness treatments.
Sochi
Sochi is currently one of the most popular and sought-after Russian holiday destinations. The warm climate and the Black Sea coast invite tourists from all over the country to this city. This resort is located on most of the Black Sea coast under the gentle sun of the Krasnodar Territory.
Sochi can offer for recreation not only the sea and swimming, but also trips to interesting places - museums, water parks, dolphinariums.
A definite plus for Russians is that Sochi is a Russian city, which means that a visa is not needed for travel and recreation. Consequently, there are no restrictions on time for rest, and citizens of the Russian Federation can spend as much time in Sochi as they want.
Gelendzhik
The pleasant climate and moderate humidity make the city an excellent resort. The holiday season starts from May and lasts until mid-autumn. Tourists can visit zoos, as well as waterfalls falling in picturesque cascades.
Thanks to the abundance of sanatoriums with mineral water treatment, Gelendzhik has become popular in health tourism. Doctors advise healing mineral water to people suffering from cardiovascular diseases.
How to save money on vacation
If there is a desire, then you can save a lot on a trip. Beginning tourists are always interested in ways to spend an inexpensive vacation abroad. To do this, you need to remember some tricks that will help you save money while traveling.
It is very advantageous to book hotel accommodation in advance without including meals. You can eat in inexpensive local cafes that serve national cuisine. The hotel is better to choose a little further from the center. In the center, housing will cost much more than on the periphery, but the quality of service is no different. If you rent separate apartments, you should think in advance about self-cooking. You can take something with you, and some products are easier to buy in local stores.
Buying excursions at the hotel is very expensive - it is better to use the services of local residents. They will be happy to show the sights of their region for a nominal fee. Attending cultural events is sometimes free. For example, museums and exhibitions hold promotions for tourists several times a month.
Europe is especially popular among travelers who prefer to hitchhike. Therefore, you can save on transport by moving in this way. You can save extra money on accommodation by renting a cheap hostel or a room from the local population.
In summer, housing on the sea, river, lake or any other water soars in price. Yearning for the sun, vacationers rush to beaches that are not always affordable for them. Many, not knowing alternatives, choose the usual Sochi or crowded Anapa, agreeing to very modest conditions for very immodest money. But there are other options as well.
The main attraction and pride is, of course, the water itself. It is hydrochloric-alkaline, you can drink it (for a healthy person no more than three glasses a day), they can be inhaled, you can take baths in them. Doctors, still of Soviet hardening, will take the bewildered patient into their iron professional embrace, take it apart piece by piece and wash everyone in these same waters.

All this is done in local sanatoriums, of which there are a couple of dozen. You can also come "savage". Then either simply improve your health "at random" - drink water and breathe truly healing air (Essentuki is recognized as a climatic resort), or already on the spot ask for treatment in one of the sanatoriums.
For 1.5-2 thousand in this city you can get very good service. The rooms are luxurious in Caucasian style, with spectacular wallpaper, high beds with carved headboards, and three-layer curtains. Naturally with private bathroom, Wi-Fi and flat-screen TV. About such places, all guests respond exceptionally well.
There are no problems with food either: the city has many cafes and restaurants with very affordable prices. It is better to choose housing in the center, closer to the resort area and Victory Park. Mineral water here can be drawn directly from taps in the largest pump room in Europe, designed for 5,000 people.
The city has a lot of entertainment and attractions. One of the main ones is the largest mud bath in Europe, built in 1913–1915. This is a real palace, which is definitely worth seeing.
The main disadvantage of the place lies in its pluses. Still, this is a health resort, not a seaside resort. All the advantages are clear, the town is pleasant, the air is healthy, but what do we think when we hear about treatment? Yes, that will be boring. There are no youth parties and evening dances, the main local entertainment is a walk. On the other hand, water really helps health. And to have fun, you can go to other resort towns or even visit
