“Three hotels in Sunny Beach have already opened doors and are welcoming tourists,” said the resort’s director Zlatko Dimitrov.

If the situation continues to improve, then most hotels are expected to open by 19 June. The first tourists were also welcomed in the resort of Albena. The safety measures there start at the barrier where all cars are disinfected. Meals will be provided in a different way this season. There will be no self-service at buffet tables, holidaymakers will have to put in their orders.

“50% of the advanced bookings in Albena have been cancelled but things are starting to move now,” said deputy-director Hristo Penev for the BNR.
