For a honeymoon in Bulgaria, top official category hotels offer named rooms for couples: a Bansko honeymoon suite with an indoor Jacuzzi and candle-light dining, a sea-view romance suite in Golden Sands, private-spa suites in Elenite, jacuzzi rooms in Sunny Beach and butler villas in the Rhodope. Pick mountain, sea or spa first.
Room by room: the named honeymoon and romance suites
Each of the five hotels below has a room or suite designed around two people rather than a family. The details come from the hotels' own pages; for packages, welcome touches or extras, ask the hotel.
Premier Luxury Mountain Resort, Bansko
The Honeymoon Suite covers 73 sq m, with an indoor Jacuzzi bathtub, a lounge and views of the forest and the Pirin mountains. The hotel offers spa therapies and massages in the suite, candle-light dining in the room and Bvlgari cosmetics.
It suits couples who want the whole experience delivered to their door, with skiing on the side. The resort also welcomes families and has a children's pool, so the public areas are not couples-only.
Meliá Grand Hermitage, Golden Sands
The Romance Suite sits within The Level, the hotel's section with exclusive services and private spaces. It has a sea view and a round bed, and measures about 1,076 sq ft (roughly 100 sq m).
It suits couples who want a beach honeymoon with a big resort around them and a private corner to retreat to. The trade-off is scale: this is a large family resort with water slides and a kids club.

Royal Castle Design & Spa, Elenite
This castle-style resort offers VIP suites with their own private spa. Around them sit a shared spa, a heated indoor pool, an outdoor pool with a bar and a gym.
It suits couples who want spa time without leaving the suite, and who like a building with some theatre to it. Ask the hotel which suite types are available on your dates.

Noma Hotel, Sunny Beach
Noma's deluxe doubles come with a private jacuzzi, and the hotel takes guests aged 16 and above only. It is a small, adults-only base, and the hotel gives 47 accommodation units.
It suits couples who want a beach stay without young children around. For a honeymoon, ask for one of the deluxe doubles when you book.

Villa Rossa, Narechenski bani

A winter honeymoon in the Pirin mountains
Bansko gives you a honeymoon that works in the cold months. Premier says it is close to the Bansko gondola and arranges ski passes and equipment rental through its concierge, so you can spend a morning on the slopes and the afternoon in the suite.
The spa does the rest. A heated indoor pool runs all year, an outdoor pool is heated in season, and the resort lists a jacuzzi among its facilities, on top of the one in your bathroom. For piste conditions, lift times and lessons, ask the concierge before you travel.

A summer honeymoon on the Black Sea
The coast is a summer choice. Meliá Grand Hermitage has a private beach and four pools, including an indoor mineral hot-water pool for a grey day, and sits about 26 km from Varna Airport; traffic can add time to the transfer.
Noma Hotel in Sunny Beach is the smaller alternative, with its age rule keeping young children away. If Golden Sands appeals, look at other Golden Sands hotels as well.
Private spa, jacuzzi and butler extras
The romance in these rooms comes from what you can do without leaving them. Royal Castle Design & Spa builds a private spa into its VIP suites, and Noma Hotel puts a private jacuzzi in its deluxe doubles. At Premier, the Honeymoon Suite adds an indoor Jacuzzi bathtub and therapists who come to you.
Villa Rossa takes a different route: a butler for the villas, a radon water spa and a wine cellar on the doorstep. Meliá Grand Hermitage gives Level guests private spaces of their own inside a large resort.
