For the long spring holidays, if you wish, you can rest for two whole weeks – and if you don’t want to spend the May weekend at the dacha, then traveling will be an excellent alternative.
There are quite a lot of options for where to go, so we decided to divide them into three large groups: a week at a spa or wellness center, a vacation at the sea (it’s too early to swim, but pleasant walks along the shore are already available) and holidays in nature, but with comfort. And for each type we have selected excellent hotels – with good reviews and ratings, as well as an ideal location. All that remains is to choose where exactly to book the room.
