Sinemorets is a small town on the Black Sea coast of Bulgaria.  The area is home to a variety of luxury hotels but still has a slow paced atmosphere, and as such is popular with holiday makers looking for relaxing break.

Although many of the hotels in Sinemorets can claim to offer satisfactory levels of  safety and hygiene, there are still unfortunate and unacceptable cases of avoidable holiday illness reported.

Sickholiday.com have dealt with cases of holiday illness in Sinemorets including reports of  symptoms including diarrhoea and vomiting, some visitors have reported low standards of hygiene and under cooked food at their hotels.

Although the tap water is safe to drink in Bulgaria all holiday makers visiting Sinemorets are advised to drink only bottled water, as the local water may have an odd taste.  Poorly maintained swimming pools can also lead to serious stomach illness such as Gastroenteritis as a result of contracting Cryptosporidium. Avoid foods not cooked thoroughly and/or re-heated incorrectly.
