Delta Apartment A1 Maliuc

Descripción del alojamiento

Situation
Romania is fortunate to be one of the few European countries generously blessed by nature. Here different forms of relief harmonize to perfection, to make up a whole of great beauty. The Danube springs to life in Germany, washes several countries of the old continent and ends its journey on Romanian territory where, before flowing into the Black Sea, it forms a picturesque delta. Here along its three branches - Chilia, Sulina and Sfintul Gheorghe - the Danube displays a geographical realm that has always fascinated by its strange beauty. The restaurant and villas where you will find these apartments, lies on the Isle of Maliuc, in the Cranjala Channel (at Mile 24 on the Sulina branch). Here you can fish, hike or go boating, bathing and swimming, or you can just bask in the sun. You can also enjoy a picnic in the magnificent area which covers 4 hectares and is made up of four channels and three isles. There are a lot of possibilities for boat trips in the area. The owner or personnel will be happy to provide you with all kinds of information regarding these trips. The Isle of Maliuc can be reached only by boat.
You can travel overland until the city of Tulcea and from there you must take a boat or ship to the Isle of Maliuc which is 15 miles from the city. The nearest airport- „Mihail Kogalniceanu” -is 13 km from Tulcea. There are regular flights from Bucharest (the capital of Romania) to Tulcea twice a week. The nearest international airport is in Constanta 100 km from Tulcea.
Modern-day tourists who seek to avoid noisy and crowded metropolises, try to ferret out refreshing corners of the world where their holidays can be enjoyed in the midst of nature. The delta of the Danube is one of the few places that meet the requirements of these travelers. Unique landscapes can be admired: long picturesque stretches shaded by luxuriant plants; water lilies and endless areas of reed; willow, poplar and alder groves; flocks of swans, pelicans, wild ducks and geese; and creepers and venerable oaks that make these places look like a real jungle.

Interior
In this one-storied villa there are two identical apartments: Delta A1 and Delta A2. Each has its own entrance.

As you pass inside the apartment you will find yourself in a very nice covered terrace with window-screens, furnished with four sofas, a table and chairs, and a TV. From the terrace you enter into the hall which is furnished with a fridge and freezer, coffeemaker, glasses and tableware. From here you can enter the bathroom, complete with shower, toilet and washbasin, and the bedrooms. In one bedroom you will find two single beds, night-tables, bedside lamps, a wardrobe, dressing-table and mirror, and a table and chairs. The second bedroom has three single beds- in all other respects it is furnished just like the other one.
The apartment has its own heating system so it may be rented from early spring until late autumn. (from the 1st of March until the last day of November).

Surroundings
If you haven't decided yet what to do during your spring and summer holidays, stop here for a moment and marvel at the color of the flowers, of the insects or of the birds that live in this fascinating environment. One can hardly describe in words, especially in a few lines, what the beauty and attraction of the Delta means to all of its visitors. It is said that once visited, this dreamland continues to draw the tourist like an irresistible call. Numerous tourist amusements and various itineraries can be found here. The Danube Delta (591,200 hectares) was included in the UNESCO Project as a Reservation of the Biosphere because of its peculiar features and for the originality and variety of the ecosystem (more than 25 types of natural ecosystems). There are 16 strictly protected areas where no commercial activity is allowed. There are other areas for ecological rehabilitation, buffers and economical areas where tourist activities are permitted. The Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve is not among the first reservations founded and it is not among the biggest either. It ranks fifth among the humid regions on earth and second in Europe, yet this reservation is considered third in the world with regard to its ecological importance.
This natural sanctuary is made up of brooks and lakes (over 400), floating islands (19.5 square km), “reed forests” (the biggest compact reed thicket on earth – 180,000 hectares), lianas, and willow and poplar forests. It shelters a fabulous fauna. In the Danube Delta there are over 300 species of birds including pelicans, egrets, spoon bills, pygmy cormorants, and red neck geese. Some of them are endangered species and are protected by the Berne Convention. In this birds’ paradise, there are 176 species living in the Danube Delta, while in spring or autumn migratory birds come here from all over Europe as well as from other continents. The ichthyofauna includes over 100 species of fishes like sheat-fish, pike, carp, herring, sturgeon, and sevruga. Some of them have a noticeable economical value like sturgeons. As for mammals, there are minks, foxes and wild boars, just to name the most common. Wherever you look, you can see floating islets covered by rush and reed, lianas like in tropical forests, and lakes carpeted with water lilies which hide a mysterious underwater world. This is a paradise for those who like fishing and hunting. The rules of hunting and fishing in the Danube Delta have been established by the Hunter and Anglers Union and the Administration of the Biosphere Reservation "Delta Dunarii". The regulations and hunting areas are marked off yearly. The main areas are: Razim, Caraorman, Uzlina, Crisan-Sulina, Mila 23-Sat, Ilgani (geese, mallards, moor hens, snipes, wild oars) and Cardon-under special circumstances (roebucks, pheasants, hares). In order to discover this paradise, one may go by boat to any of the three tributaries of the Danube. The northern branch of the Delta is called Chilia. This branch has a length of 104 km and includes four estuaries which form a mini-delta. The central branch, Sulina, is the most frequently traveled by passenger ship and cargo vessels. It meanders along 71 km and practically flows into the middle of the Danube, having sometimes a width of 250 meters. It empties into the former port of Sulina. Other meanderings of the river allow access to some lagoons and small navigable channels. From this point of view the lakes of Fortuna and Gorgova provide two beautiful examples. The meridional branch is called Sf. Gheorghe. It stretches 112 km up to the former settlement of Sf. Gheorghe, from where it flows into the sea.
The Delta of the Danube is a perfect holiday choice, especially when one takes into consideration Romanian hospitality!
