Accommodations are concentrated along the 8km strip. The north features camping sites, while the central and southern areas host 4- and 5-star hotels and private clubs. Staying near the casino or gondola lift entrance provides easy access to amenities and the beach.
The beach season peaks from mid-June to early September, with average daytime temperatures of 25-30°C. The water remains warm until mid-autumn. This is the ideal time for beach activities, though the resort is most populated during these months.
The resort is a narrow strip, making it highly walkable. A 2km gondola lift system, inaugurated in 2004, connects the Constanța entrance to the casino area, offering a quick and scenic transport option for guests.
