Venus
Young and cheerful, with a lively beach and hotels named after women.
Venus is a young and cheerful resort on the southern coast, with a lively beach and a friendly atmosphere. Its hotels are named after women — Raluca, Silvia, Sunquest — a quirk that gave it an identity from the moment it was built.
Set between Cap Aurora and Saturn, Venus blends a good beach with affordable prices and a pleasant summer life, without being as hectic as the northern resorts. The seaside promenade links it to its neighbours, and nearby lie the Comorova lake and forest, a rare patch of green on the coast.
Venus is the choice for a relaxed holiday by the sea, with beach, sun and measured fun, in a resort of the right size. It is a good base for exploring the southern coast, from Mangalia and its port to the surrounding satellite resorts.
