Food & drink prices at Anelia Resort & Spa
Food and beverage pricing is notably expensive and lacks transparency. Reviewers report hidden charges, unexpectedly high meal costs, and beverages consistently priced at approximately 5 euros outside inclusive plans.
Recent complaints (June–July 2026) dominate the dataset, with consistent reports of high beverage pricing. One older review from February 2026 and one undated review also report the same 5-euro beverage pricing, suggesting this is a persistent issue rather than a recent change. No improvement trend detected.
What the reviews tell us
Beverages consistently cost approximately 5 euros on average outside inclusive plans, representing a premium for a resort destination
Half-pension plan excludes basic items like bottled water at dinner, despite being a meal plan, with all beverages carrying separate charges
Room service incidentals such as two glasses were charged at 600 rupees, suggesting aggressive pricing on minor items
Concerns raised about booking platform transparency, with allegations that advertised prices obscure hidden charges
Dinner costs approximately 160 RMB per person, though limited context on quality or inclusions
Anelia Resort & Spa presents significant challenges regarding food and beverage value and transparency. Multiple reviewers report that beverages are consistently expensive at approximately 5 euros on average outside all-inclusive or half-pension arrangements. Even guests on half-pension plans report that basic items such as bottled water are not included and carry separate charges. One reviewer reported being charged 600 rupees (roughly 7-8 USD) simply for requesting two glasses in their room. Additionally, concerns have been raised about pricing transparency, with one reviewer alleging that booking platforms display artificially low rates by hiding charges. A specific dinner cost of approximately 160 RMB per person (roughly 22 USD) was noted by a Chinese guest. Overall, the resort appears to charge aggressively for beverages and incidental items, with limited clarity about what is or isn't included in various rate plans.
