A cool, quiet place for privacy and relaxation! 😊 there are cafes and a beach nearby )) 🤽♂️ the hosts are friendly and hospitable, will provide assistance in case of force majeure )) I really liked it!!! The perfect place for a relaxing holiday
We booked the hotel based on reviews , not knowing the city well ( based on this , we were a little (a lot ) disappointed (
I do not want to offend the owners , they were warmly welcomed -they were fed dinner from the road , treated to wine -that 's it !
There is no sound insulation in the hotel at all!accordingly, there is no sleep either , the walls are thin, there is a hole in the door, which is why any footsteps of neighbors on wooden, creaking floors are just pain and lack of sleep (we were lucky that at the beginning of the season there were no small children in the hotel , otherwise it was even worse with audibility (there is no ventilation in the rooms at all., only the air conditioner saved , the window is curtained, accordingly, there is never daylight either (
The proximity of the sea is yes , three minutes away , BUT the beach is wild , without sunbeds and sewage flowing nearby 😭
There are a lot of dogs nearby that bark endlessly at night - again, everything is audible !
A sofa for a child is just sadism-an old , hard couch, it is impossible to sleep on it
Breakfast: the first day we had breakfast with milk soup - a flashback to kindergarten (then we moved out without breakfast (
It takes 15 minutes to walk to the equipped beach in the heat
Well, about the home environment - maybe someone really likes to come and live with one , friendly family ) but the process was unpleasant for us when we had to despair where we were and that everything was okay with us
. P.S.: as an allergic person, I was shocked that the hotel building was being skinned and painted in front of us, I almost suffocated from the smell of paint (
And for the rest, enjoy your stay)
I was vacationing here for the first time. The first line. The sea is nearby. Briefly and to the point: The hostess is a wonderful person! She cooks homemade food with a soul. Breakfast is included in the payment, lunch and dinner separately, if desired. Everything is on time.
In addition, there is an opportunity to cook by yourself(!).Cleaning every day, change of towels, cleanliness. The room has a separate shower room. A large double bed plus a sofa bed, a refrigerator and a TV. And, most importantly, the air conditioner. Beautiful garden! Eating under a large canopy outside and it's great.
The beach is not to everyone's liking, it is large and pebbly. But everything is blocked by the purest ghostly water. There are many cafes on the shore. There are paid sun beds. And yes, in the morning you can hear the crowing of roosters and the barking of dogs, but it did not affect my nervous system!
Well, a little bit, I will briefly add: excursions to the mountains to the waterfall... This is something stunning! An amazing walk around the city.Gagra! New Athos impressed! And there are a lot of different excursions, it's a pity that we didn't have time to go everywhere. It's beautiful everywhere, there are lots of photos. Emotions are running high.
I had my first vacation in Abkhazia, I was very pleased with the place where we lived, the service is at a high level, the rooms have everything you need for comfort, cleanliness is maintained by daily cleaning, the food is varied, you can order lunch and dinner, everything is very tasty and inexpensive, there is a great beach nearby. I would like to thank Marina, her family and her au pair for the Abkhazian hospitality. Thank you very much for your generosity and warmth.
The biggest plus and the hallmark of this guest house is its mistresses Marbles and Naala, who throughout the rest plunged our family into the atmosphere of home comfort. No world-class hotel has such friendliness as the Radiance of the Sun Hotel. Here you will be treated not just as people renting a room with all the amenities for a comfortable stay, but as real guests who were eagerly awaited. Humanity, good–naturedness, a smile, a great sense of humor, courtesy, efficiency - all these qualities are inherent in the people you stay with. The food is very tasty, homemade, and at the same time spoils with its variety, and most importantly, you will never be left hungry. The beach is within walking distance, depending on which one you choose: there is a wild beach, 2-3 minutes walk to it, next to it (cross the river over the bridge) there is a beach with sun loungers, umbrellas and cafes. And if you go the other way from the hotel, you can come to the Kate park beach, there is all of the above + sap rental, you can ride a banana and jump into the water from the bridge, which stands in the sea. In general, Gudauta has a calm and cozy atmosphere without fuss and a huge number of people, so if you are for such a vacation, then feel free to go to the guest house "Radiance of the Sun", you will remain only with positive emotions, I assure you. But if you want to go somewhere, the hostesses will help with the organization of the tour, it will not be difficult)
We just returned from vacation, lived in the guest house "Radiance of the Sun", we were completely delighted with the rest, we arrived in the evening, we were fed dinner for free, then we paid for lunches and dinners, they feed very tasty, the menu is different every day, they asked if it was possible to use a washing machine, Nala did not even take payment) if a question arises - they will definitely help. Very cozy atmosphere, it is as comfortable as possible, like at home))daily room cleaning, it was also very important that you can relax with a dog, there are a couple of swings in the garden, it's great to sit there in the evenings. A couple of minutes to the sea, we went on the recommendation of my sister, and I will recommend it to everyone))))
We rested with my husband in the Sunshine from July 8 to July 18, 2023. It is very convenient, the transfer took you from the railway station in Adler to the place. We immediately realized that the owners were waiting for us, first they fed us, treated us to homemade wine, and got acquainted. The room is quite spacious, clean bathroom, cleaned every day, bed linen was changed after 3 days. A very tasty and varied breakfast is included in the price. Lunch and dinner can be arranged on site. Everything is very homey and the portions are large. The guest house is located away from the center, which has become a huge plus for us in our vacation. Silence, clean air, birdsong! It takes 3-4 minutes to the sea at a calm pace, there are pebbles on the shore, we recommend taking suitable shoes. There are few people on the beach even on a day off. Another plus is that there are no catamarans, motorboats, bananas, etc. on the beach, there is also no navigation in this part of the beach. The water is clean and translucent. In general, we were one hundred percent satisfied with the rest. Mrazma, Naala and Tatiana, thank you so much for the pleasant atmosphere, cleanliness, comfort, intelligent and unobtrusive service, and truly homely care for each of us)
It's a very cozy place. The hostess of the Marble is a kind-hearted person. He greets vacationers as close relatives. Excellent well-appointed rooms with all amenities and air conditioning. There is a kitchen with everything you need. But the hostess cooks very tasty and not expensive. I highly recommend it.
The friendliest environment, the care that is felt in everything - coffee, food, linen and much more! Lovely clean rooms, 3 minutes walk to the sea. We have been here 2 times already and we will come back more than once!
We are not the first to come to Abkhazia, but it is in Gudauta that we have not been with an 11-month-old child more than once! I chose a place to stay based on reviews, and, perhaps for the first time, the reviews are completely true!
From the first messages from the hostess Nala, it was clear that I was communicating with a positive and kind person, asked how we were getting there, if we needed help with the transfer, answered all my questions.
Upon arrival, she greeted us with a radiant smile and asked if we wanted to eat. Literally in 10 minutes. A delicious lunch was waiting for us in the shade of the courtyard of the guest house. Every morning Marina carefully served breakfast, which, by the way, was included in the room rate.
The rooms are quite typical for Abkhazia, but each room has a hairdryer, a kettle, tea drinking utensils, a refrigerator with drinking water for tea. But, which is absolutely not typical for guest houses - the room was cleaned daily, the towels were replaced as soon as we asked. In fact, Tatiana changed our towels 3 or 4 times during the week of rest.
When rotavirus happened to our child with all the consequences - they replaced the bed without question, they refused to pay for the offer if necessary!
In the evening, the baby got worse - they took us to the hospital, helped, supported, shared the contacts of the pediatrician!
In general, Marina repeated several times - we are at home, we are not alone!
And indeed, there was a feeling of warmth and comfort throughout the entire vacation!
It's not the best vacation for my family, but it's definitely the best vacation home we've been to in Abkhazia!
A beautiful country, wonderful people!
Prosperity to the "Shining of the Sun" and thank you so much for everything!
Nala, Roma, Marina and Tatiana - I wish you good health and the wealthiest guests all year round!
a wonderful guest house with rooms where there is everything necessary for life, the main thing is air conditioning, refrigerator, kettle! I didn't use the TV, not before it, if the sea is a 3-minute walk away!) Very friendly hosts, tasty and inexpensive food, optional, 3 times a day🔥👌 At home, with love♥️ Everywhere is clean and cozy, there is a barbecue, a cooking area (if you want) food, all kinds of dishes, covered terrace, no rain, if anything! a garden with fruit trees, a lawn and swing benches, but most importantly-the warmth and warmth of the hearts of the hostess and her daughter😍🙏 I left with tears, I didn't want to part with them♥️ I really want to settle there and get a thrill from relaxing from the so-called wonders of civilization! There are the most necessary things, near a clean sea, where dolphins swim, Kati Park, where you can find entertainment with and without children, cafes, shops.... 👍. I RECOMMEND!!!
A very warm and cozy place! Many thanks to Marbles and Naala for their caring and cordial attitude towards the guests! Everything is very beautiful and lovingly done on the site, delicious food, clean rooms with everything you need fully match the photos. The sea is nearby within walking distance!
After all, Abkhazia is a country of the soul! It was confirmed thanks to the cordiality, hospitality, sensitive attention and tact of the wonderful hosts of the guest house "Radiance of the Sun": Marbles and Naale. We had a rest with a large group of children. The rooms provide everything you need for a comfortable stay, and if you need something extra, the responsive hosts immediately help solve all issues. The guest house also provides hot homemade meals for an additional affordable fee: hearty breakfasts with fragrant coffee, delicious lunches with homemade compotes and excellent dinners. Always fresh and high-quality products, a variety of dishes, taking into account all the wishes and preferences of the guests. Lovely Marbles and sweet Naala, thank you so much for the peace of mind!
I was on vacation in Abkhazia for the first time, thank you very much for your kindness and excellent attitude.The rooms are very cozy, the kitchen is generally 10 points.The rooms are clean.It's five minutes to the sea.I plan to visit this cozy house again
We rested at the "Sunshine" in October. Lisa and her daughter Naala welcomed us as family. Lisa immediately offered breakfast (for free!). The house has a very cozy summer kitchen where you can cook yourself. But if you try what Lisa cooks, you definitely won't want to do anything else yourself! We ordered either lunch or dinner every day, and every time it was amazingly delicious! You can contact the housewives with any problem, they will listen, they will try to help. The house has a very beautiful garden with fruit trees: apple trees, persimmons, tangerines, kiwis, grapes grow everywhere. The sea is within walking distance. Holidays in Gudauta are for those who want peace and quiet. You will not find parties, bright showcases and modern service here. But the transparent sea, the beauty of the local nature, mountains, rivers, caves, waterfalls will definitely not leave you indifferent! I would like to wish Abkhazia well-being and prosperity, and happiness and health to our dear Marbles and Naala! We will definitely come to you again!
Unexpectedly, I found myself with my family in Abkhazia, in the city of Gudauta, where I was received in the wonderful guest house "Radiance of the Sun". I don't like cooking, "I have paws", and I was very well fed. The rooms are very comfortable. To the sea 3 minutes straight at a slow pace, specially measured))) In general, the buzz, peace and quiet! I definitely recommend it!)
We had our first vacation in Abkhazia and left a lot of positive impressions and emotions! We are very glad that we chose this particular guest house , I think we are very lucky! You will definitely not be left hungry here)) Room cleaning every day, change of towels and linen and this is very important 👍🏻 A cozy and green courtyard where you can relax and hide from the hot sun. The hosts are very helpful, they will always help you! The sea is five minutes from the house and very clean! We had a rest with a small child and the rest was wonderful! Thank you Abkhazia, thank you Marbles and Naala for your Abkhazian hospitality! I would really like to come back to you in September!
The hostess of the Marble and her daughter Nala are very hospitable people, any issues with them are resolved very quickly.
The rooms are cleaned every day. The rooms are clean and comfortable.
The food in general is 1000 rubles per person (breakfast + lunch + dinner), but you can also pay for each meal separately.
Rubles are accepted here (cash + non-cash (SBP and Sberbank online)).
Location - 1st coastline. The beach is 50 meters away.
The beach is public. Overall clean. A chaise longue for the whole day - 100 rubles.
Couples with children spend their holidays here mainly.
I liked the guest house, but I especially liked the hostess Marbles and her daughter Naala, surprisingly warm hospitality and delicious homemade food, cleanliness everywhere and willingness to solve any questions and help in everything. Thank you very much!!!!
The sea is close by 5 minutes on foot, the beach is simple, and if you need a more civilized beach with sun loungers and a toilet, then you need to walk 10 minutes away on foot. We went there and there, there are advantages everywhere.
The only thing is that Gudauta is a pretty quiet place, and there is no special entertainment there. If you like entertainment and hangouts, then it's better to go to some big city.
A good budget hotel. The hostess is hospitable, the rooms are clean. Breakfast is not bad. No need to run around looking for breakfast. At the request of the vacationer, he will prepare both lunch and dinner.
Very good-natured hosts, delicious food, clean rooms and a 5-minute leisurely walk to the sea. The beach is pebbles turning into sand, a small river flows nearby, so you can always choose a warm sea or a sea cooled by this river. We recommend it to everyone.

The soul and main value of this guest house are its mistresses, wonderful Naala and Marbles. They create an amazing atmosphere of home comfort and family warmth: attentive, responsive, always ready to help and solve any issue.
The rooms are equipped with everything you need, everything is working properly. The cleanliness is perfect, cleaning is daily.
We ordered meals on the spot. Everything is very tasty, the portions are large.
The sea is nearby, no more than 5 minutes at a calm pace.
Thank you so much for a wonderful vacation. I was traveling with a dream of a quiet family vacation... Thanks to the wonderful housewives and a warm welcome, I got everything for 5+! They welcome you like family, everything is for vacationers! We miss you already😘
A wonderful hotel, very clean and cozy.
Cleaning is done every day, towels are changed on demand, bed linen is changed after three days, which is not done in every "star" hotel.
Breakfast, lunch and dinner are served at the hotel. The prices are very affordable. Breakfast 200 rubles (porridge, scrambled eggs, bread, butter, cheese, sausage, tea or coffee), lunch 400 rubles (salad, soup, second course, compote), dinner 300 rubles (meat or fish with side dish, tea or coffee, bread). The hostess of the hotel cooks. Simple and delicious, just like at home.
They will help you organize excursions around Abkhazia. Not expensive, but very professional
I would like to say separately about the atmosphere of the hotel. Very attentive and friendly housewives, clean and smart. They will help you solve any household problem.
Hello everyone, I want to thank the hostess of this hotel. Very hospitable people, I asked to spend the night for one night, they did not refuse, although no matter who drove up, they all refused, and then they fed me tea, gave me a drink and put me to bed, the rooms are excellent, clean and everything is neat, the room has a shower with a bathroom, air conditioning, TV, refrigerator, parking for cars in the yard. In a word, I advise you!!!👍👍👍👍
Good afternoon!
For the first time in my life I visited the Land of the soul and the sun-Abkhazia!!))) 😃 For a
long time we chose where to go... The choice fell on the hero city of Gudauta!!!
We stayed at the Shining of the Sun guest house!!!
The name justifies itself!!!))) 💯Welcome with a sunny smile and a friendly approach!!! 👌
The hosts find a common language with everyone, Are friendly, sociable, and always open!!! ✌️😉
Regarding nutrition, they are fed as if for slaughter (in a good sense of the word!) 💥
The room is kept clean and cozy every day!
Thanks for that!!!))
The beauty is incredible!)
Calm and inviting atmosphere!!!)) ☝️
Some words about the sea... It's a fairy tale!!!
Within walking distance!!! 3-4 minutes slowly!)))
And what boundless beauty opens up!!!
The sea is mirror-clear and mesmerizing!!!! 😉✌️The beach does not bother with a massive crowd of vacationers, it is very comfortable in this regard!!!
Thank you very much for everything!!! 💕
I really liked it.A clean, beautiful room.The sea is nearby, there are not as many vacationers as in a big city.Friendly and hospitable hosts.Very tasty breakfasts and dinners, the hostess prepares, great job! Thank you for the rest!
Good housewives, not far from the sea. Closed and summer kitchen, three hot water taps to avoid queues when there are a lot of people. There is a shower and toilet in each room, and there is also an outdoor toilet...
Wonderful people rent this house, real Caucasian hospitality, the room is clean, bright, there is a TV, wf, air conditioning. it's 10 minutes to the sea slowly, we had a family vacation, we really liked it
The photo does not correspond to reality. I don't recommend it. One positive fact is the kind, sociable hosts. Do not take a transfer from them. 2 times more expensive. The water in the sink is barely running. The lights are often turned off from 4.00- 7.00. Think for yourself, decide for yourself!!!!
Very pleasant and hospitable hosts: Marbles and Naala. Everything was wonderful!!!

We recommend this wonderful cozy guest house to everyone! Very attentive, hospitable housewives, delicious homemade food (and in Abkhazia it is highly recommended to eat this way, and not in large sanatoriums or hotels with a public kitchen), a beautiful territory with a fruit-bearing garden, the cutest seals, cozy rooms. I was particularly pleased with the silence and the absence of crowds of vacationers, as in large cities. We definitely recommend this place to everyone and now we know exactly where we will go to Abkhazia next time))
In general, I liked it, the sea is nearby, 3 minutes on foot. The shops are also not far away, the main thing is silence, but there is nothing to see, but you can go to Mount Athos or to the ritsa, to Gagry. Prices are cheaper than in Russia.
Very cozy guest house
Three minutes walk to the sea slowly
Hospitable good-natured hosts clean and cozy home environment
The comfort in the rooms is perfectly clean
The food was delicious and the portions were large
The hostess is a cook a variety of dishes
I advise everyone to visit this guest house
