A great place for a family vacation! The houses, the kitchen, the territory are clean and equipped. A quiet, peaceful suburb of Athos, a large number of cafes nearby at a normal price tag with delicious food.
Special attention is paid to the beach 50m from the gate, with a gorgeous entrance to the sea, the water is clean. We rode on other beaches both towards Sukhum and towards Gudauta - near Flora the most-the most.
It was also very nice to receive invitations to the Lviv Park, this is a separate big story of the hosts 🦁🐯🐅 you are well done))
Katyusha, Ninel Borisovna, Oleg, Leva, Kolya, thank you for the rest, for pleasant communication. You are great hard workers, you invest wholeheartedly in all your endeavors, and it feels ♥️♥️♥️
The Flora Hotel has left us with the warmest and most joyful impressions. This place is really unique and has a special atmosphere, which is created not only by the beauty of nature, but also by the sincere people who work here. First of all, we were struck by the hospitality of the hosts, Oleg and Ekaterina. They did everything possible to make our stay as comfortable, memorable and filled with pleasant moments as possible.
The hotel is in a great location — the first line to the sea, a clean and well-maintained beach is literally within walking distance. The feeling of peace is created by the remoteness from noisy places, while everything you need is nearby: there is a homemade cafe nearby, as well as the city of New Athos with its sights, including the famous New Athos Cave. We could easily get to all these places, which was one of the advantages of our stay.
There is a place for cooking and eating on the territory of the hotel. There is a barbecue and a cauldron. We had breakfast and went to see something new. We found very beautiful places for ourselves every day.
The houses in the hotel are cozy, made with care for each guest. It is clear that everything is thought out, everything is done with a soul and for the convenience of vacationers. The rooms are clean, well-equipped, and towels are provided.
It is also worth noting the territory, which is surrounded by greenery and fruit trees. It was nice to walk past the trees strewn with ripe fruits. With the permission of the owners, you can pick a tangerine and enjoy the taste of ripe fruit right from the tree — this is really a rare pleasure! Thanks to such a thoughtful and very well-groomed green area, a feeling of complete fusion with nature is created.
It would be fair to say that there is a railway that runs next to the hotel, but trains rarely ran and we did not hear them, so it did not cause us any concern.
A 20-minute drive from the hotel is a place called "Pride". It was created and opened by the owners of the hotel. This is not just an area where you can see wild animals, but a whole mini-reserve where lions and tigers are kept, there is even a jaguar. They can be fed by buying food from an employee. Animals are rescued, treated and cared for here. This is a real matter of the soul, and when we visited the Pride we felt it. Looking at these majestic and noble animals, you realize how difficult and valuable work the owners put into them. The lions and tigers we saw looked healthy, well-groomed and calm.
In addition to lions and tigers, other animals can also be seen on the territory. Our children were delighted with the donkeys, who were always happy to communicate, and especially with Roma's camel. When we arrived, the camel was quietly standing in its pen and quietly chewing. We tried to get his attention so that he would come to us, but he was strict and harsh. The caretaker Anatoly, seeing this camel's discourtesy, shouted – Roma, be a man, come to people! And immediately Roma moved his paws and came up to us for a photo together.
At Pride, we met an interesting man, Anatoly, who lives here and conducts conversations with guests. Anatoly impressed us with his wisdom, deep knowledge and benevolence. In his stories and reflections on life and animals, we discovered something new and valuable. Anatoly knows how to inspire reflection.
For everyone who is looking for an unusual place to relax, enjoy the beauty of nature and spend time with kind people, the Flora Hotel will be a real discovery.
We had a rest with our family in Florushka from 19.09-25.09. A very cozy hotel. There are a lot of fruit trees on the territory, a lot of lighting (which creates a special atmosphere). The sea is really a 1-minute walk away, there was always a place on the beach (I warn you that the beach is not equipped, but this may even be a plus). Unfortunately, we were not very lucky with the weather, there were only 2 sunny days (but the hotel has a refrigerator with various drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic) at the price of shops, without cheating, which saved us). A quiet and peaceful place, perfect for those who appreciate peace and quiet. Upon arrival, we received an invitation to the Lviv Park as a gift, it was very pleasant and interesting to visit this place! Varya and Nadia send greetings to Lyova, Cheese and Count Bezukhov, they miss them very much. Thank you very much for your hospitality, we really enjoyed everything!
