Aparthotels & serviced apartments in Navodari

14 stays · 12 aparthotels and 2 serviced apartments

Năvodari (Navodari) is a town on the Romanian Black Sea coast just north of Mamaia, and its seaside strip, Mamaia Nord, has a large stock of holiday apartments alongside hotels, villas and guesthouses, which makes aparthotels and serviced apartments a natural way to stay. Families get a kitchen and separate rooms for a beach holiday that can run from mid-May to late September, and groups can share a flat close to the sand.

Mamaia is the established resort immediately to the south, on a strip of land between Lake Siutghiol and the sea. Its attractions, including the Aqua Magic water park, the Summer Theatre and the telegondola cable car, are listed by the Năvodari town hall as within easy reach of Mamaia Nord.

Getting around Navodari

Constanța is served by Mihail Kogălniceanu International Airport (CND), and Wikivoyage describes a single road route from it to the city, the E60, a 30-minute drive. From Constanța, the Mamaia Nord resort organisation says that by car, the DN39 leads to Mamaia and then north to Mamaia Nord, taking about 15 to 20 minutes depending on traffic. By public transport, you take a bus from Constanța to Mamaia and change there for Mamaia Nord, and minibuses and taxis are also available.

Wikivoyage lists Constanța railway station as the arrival point for trains from Bucharest and describes buses 41 and 47 running to the north end of the Mamaia strip. A tourist information centre in the heart of Mamaia Nord, on Bulevardul Mamaia Nord no. 6, gives advice on transport, car rental and taxis.

Living in Navodari for longer

The town hall lists a promenade, terraces, restaurants and beach bars among the resort's facilities, and parks, fountains and fishermen's restaurants in Năvodari itself. Beach services include sunbeds with reed-roofed parasols, and the town hall says nautical sports such as windsurfing, surfing and jet-skiing are possible.

Outside the summer, the town keeps functioning as a residential centre of more than 34,000 people. Wikivoyage notes that Mamaia next door is a pure summer destination with few permanent residents. See our aparthotel vs hotel guide for the practical differences.

When to visit Navodari

The town hall says the weather suits the beach from mid-May to late September, when average temperatures exceed 25 °C, and the water stays warm until late autumn. It gives July temperatures of up to 30 °C and January around 0 °C. The gradual entry into the water, advancing almost 200 metres out with depths no more than 2 metres, suits families with young children.

In summer the town hall says the beach hosts concerts and international events, and the Mamaia Nord website lists a festivals section; check it for dates before booking.

The town sits on the isthmus between Lake Tașaul and Lake Siutghiol, with 34,398 residents in 2021. It grew around heavy industry, including the Petromidia refinery, the largest in Romania, and has since added a coastal resort. Our Romania hub covers the country, and Mamaia Nord and Constanța are the neighbouring areas to compare.
