Meliá Grand Hermitage
Golden Sands
Meliá Grand Hermitage is a strong base for a Bulgaria golf holiday, especially for UK travellers looking to combine Black Sea sunshine with a relaxed resort stay. Set in Golden Sands, just 0.1km from the beach and around 26km from Varna Airport, the hotel is well placed for an easy fly-and-flop style break with golf added into the itinerary. The resort itself is one of Bulgaria’s best-known seaside areas, with a long golden beach, wooded hills and the wider Golden Sands National Park nearby.
The hotel has a classic five-star resort feel, with outdoor swimming pools, a heated pool, spa treatments, gym, private beach access, children’s activities and water slides, making it a good option for couples, families and groups where not everyone wants to play golf every day.
For golfers, the main appeal is access to Bulgaria’s Black Sea golf coast. Lighthouse Golf & Spa Resort, BlackSeaRama and Thracian Cliffs can all be worked into a wider golf itinerary, giving the trip far more variety than a standard beach holiday. Lighthouse offers an Ian Woosnam-designed par-71 course, while BlackSeaRama and Thracian Cliffs bring dramatic Gary Player-designed golf with cliff-top views over the Black Sea.
Meliá Grand Hermitage is best suited to golfers who want a comfortable beach resort first, with memorable golf days built in around it. For a Bulgaria golf break with sunshine, sea air and access to some of Eastern Europe’s most scenic courses, it is a very practical choice.

About The Area
Pájara is a fantastic choice for a Fuerteventura golf holiday, combining year-round sunshine, dramatic volcanic landscapes and some of the Canary Islands’ most beautiful beaches. Covering much of southern Fuerteventura, including Costa Calma, Jandía and Morro Jable, this scenic destination offers golfers a wonderful mix of challenging fairways, luxury beachfront resorts and relaxed island living.
For golf, our main recommendation is Jandía Golf, an 18-hole, par-72 course designed by renowned architect Ron Kirby. Set within a spectacular valley surrounded by rugged mountains, the course features undulating fairways, strategic water hazards and breathtaking scenery. Its varied layout offers an enjoyable challenge for different abilities, making it an interesting addition to a Fuerteventura golf holiday.
Away from golf, Pájara offers plenty to explore. We would recommend visiting Sotavento Beach, famous for its golden sands, turquoise lagoons and excellent windsurfing conditions. The beautiful beaches around Costa Calma and Morro Jable are perfect for relaxing in the sunshine, while waterfront restaurants serve delicious seafood and traditional Canarian dishes.
For something different, explore Jandía Natural Park, discover the dramatic volcanic landscapes surrounding the peninsula or visit the fascinating Ajuy Caves, where ancient rock formations meet the Atlantic Ocean. The traditional village of Pájara is also worth exploring for its charming architecture and peaceful atmosphere.
Our tip: choose Pájara for a Canary Islands golf holiday combining scenic golf, beautiful beaches, winter sunshine and unforgettable island adventures.
