About Thracian Cliffs Golf & Beach Resort, Balchik

Carved dramatically into the white limestone cliffs above the Black Sea, Thracian Cliffs Golf & Beach Resort is one of Europe’s most striking golf destinations. Located just outside the coastal town of Balchik, the resort offers a unique blend of dramatic scenery, refined accommodation, and a world-renowned golf holiday in Bulgaria.

Golf courses

Your stay includes rounds across the region’s premier courses, all within a short drive, offering variety, challenge, and spectacular views.

At the heart of the experience is Thracian Cliffs Golf Course, a Gary Player masterpiece often referred to as “the Pebble Beach of Europe.” This dramatic clifftop layout stretches 6,840 yards and plays to a par of 72, with multiple holes perched directly above the Black Sea.

You’ll also play a round at BlackSeaRama, another Gary Player design just 15 minutes away. In contrast to Thracian’s wild cliffs, this 7,242-yard par-72 course offers a more open, traditional links-style experience with rolling fairways, panoramic views, and generous landing areas. It’s impeccably maintained and strategically designed, offering a more forgiving—but no less engaging—round.

The third round takes place at Lighthouse Golf Club, also designed by Gary Player. This 6,720-yard, par-71 course winds through gentle terrain with sea glimpses and clever bunkering. It’s a strategic layout that rewards smart shot-making and provides a balanced test for all levels of golfer.

Accommodation

At Thracian Cliffs, guests are accommodated in elegant, apartment-style suites spread across two villages: Marina Village, located near the sea, and Hillside Village, offering elevated views and peacefulness. Each suite features a private terrace or balcony, spacious living areas, and modern amenities designed for comfort and independence.

Whether you wake up to sunrise over the Black Sea or wind down on your terrace with a glass of Bulgarian wine, the atmosphere is serene and deeply restorative.

Facilities

The resort is designed for total relaxation and enjoyment. Two private beaches - Bendida Beach and Argata Beach - offer sun loungers, watersports, and beachside dining, while the Thracian Spa provides a wide range of massages, wellness rituals, and a hammam.

Dining is a highlight, with restaurants such as Geti and Bendida Beach Restaurant serving fresh, seasonal cuisine with Mediterranean and Bulgarian influences.

Additional services include a golf academy, fitness center, tennis courts, and personalized concierge assistance to enhance every part of your stay.
