More by way of striking design lies within. Take the lobby. Awash with gleaming marble and espresso-leather armchairs, it’s finished with oyster-pink drapes and a grandfather clock. Even grander is the staircase that sweeps to the upper floors under elaborate chandeliers. The bedrooms, meanwhile, show a lighter touch. All peaches-and-cream elegance, they’re dressed with dainty off-white furniture and sofas. The pool, meanwhile, is set in to wide sun terraces. It’s home to a fancy metal pergola that morphs into an illuminated water feature by night. The facilities here are impressive too. There’s a wellness centre, tennis and beach volleyball on offer. And you’re welcome to use selected facilities at the Helena’s sister hotel, the Helena Park - just cross over the creek that trickles between them. The last word though has to go to the location. The Helena has grabbed what is probably one of the best spots in Sunny Beach. It’s at the quieter end of the resort, facing the beach. And on a more practical note, the town centre is also within easy striking distance - just a 15-minute or so stroll away.
