Why choose Holbina for your Danube Delta stay

Unlike many guesthouses in the Delta's villages, accommodation at Holbina is entirely private: the resort sits on its own lake, reachable only by boat, with no neighbours and no channel traffic. Packages include full board, boat transfer from Dunavatul de Jos and free access to the pools, kayaks and fishing lakes — a Danube Delta stay designed so you never have to arrange anything separately.

How far in advance should I book?

We recommend booking at least 2-3 weeks ahead, especially during peak season (May-September) and in autumn, when demand for pike fishing is high.

What does the room rate include besides the room?

Standard accommodation includes breakfast, access to the pools and green spaces. Full-board packages add lunch and dinner, and fishing packages also include the boat, guide and round-trip transfer from Dunavatul de Jos.

Is Holbina suitable for a stay without fishing?

Yes. Many guests come just for relaxation, the pools, kayaking and the Delta's nature, without fishing at all. The resort is designed for whole families, not only anglers.

Is Holbina a good fit for a romantic stay as a couple?

Yes. Boat-only access and the absence of neighbours provide complete quiet, and the jacuzzi, terrace and sunset boat rides are frequently sought out by couples looking for a peaceful escape, not necessarily tied to fishing.
