Holiday apartments and villas
If you don't like the impersonal formality of big hotels, why not stay in a self-catering apartment or villa? We can offer you a selection of carefully vetted properties, chosen for people who want to stay somewhere comfortable - somewhere close enough to the sea, shops and market but still quiet. We have properties in Yalta and also in Gurzuf, a smaller resort in few km down the coast, where playwright Anton Chekhov had his dacha. And this year for the first time, we can offer apartments in historic Sevastopol, scene of the Crimean War and the Charge of the Light Brigade.

Only 15 minutes by car from Sevastopol, the Golden Symbol Hotel offers peace and quiet in the harbour town where the British, French and Turkish forces were based during the Crimean War. This is where the Light Brigade were billeted, where Mary Seacole set up her `British Hotel' to feed the soldiers and look after the wounded, and where ships left daily to take them to Florence Nightingale in Scutari.
