Garden of Eden is a beachfront firstline or frontline development (i.e. right on the beach) and faces south maximising both sea views and the position of the sun. It looks out over the bay towards the beautiful medieval peninsula of Nessebar, a UNESCO world heritage site, while at night the lights of Sunny Beach (3 miles by road) gleam in the south-west. As well as the ideal orientation, the geographical position provides very pure air. St Vlas is an attractive village benefiting from substantial improvements and development, and is fast becoming the 'Puerto Banus' of the Black Sea Coast.

A small hotel and around 550 properties are being built in a Thracian style, with its red tiled roofs and deep eaves. Utilising both local wood and stone, Garden of Eden marries modern design with the beauty of traditional building. The 'garden' concept is being realised with extensive planting and landscaping.

Six outdoor pools, a seventh Roman-style pool, and an indoor pool are being provided, with a cascading stream through the village.

Using the natural gradient, a high proportion of the apartments, reached by footpaths and bridges over the stream, have a sea view. Motor vehicles use the underground car park and have no access to the village area, which is only for pedestrians and electric buggies (which will be provided).

A 'marina' pier, where small craft can be moored, is being built in the water to enhance the exclusivity of the development.

On-site facilities include shops, banking, tennis court, fitness centre, saunas and beauty salon - and of course a number of bars and restaurants (including a fish restaurant built out over the sea).Garden of Eden is protected by planning regulations against adjacent building development on three sides - south, west and north, while to the east development will be complete before Garden of Eden opens.

The Apartments and Villas

Studio, one and two and three bedroom apartments, plus larger penthouses and town-house villas are offered with fully-tiled modern bathrooms. All have either balconies or patios and most have sea views. Built to a high internal specification, they include air conditioning (cold & warm air) in bedrooms and living room as standard.
