The resorts on the Romanian coast lose more and more customers. Among the reasons evoked by those who no longer want to hear about the tourist areas Constanţa are the noise and music given in very loud speakers.

Romania fails to take advantage of its huge tourist potential, and the seaside resorts are no exception to the rule. If in the old days they were full to the refusal, tourists begin to avoid them due to high prices, but also because of the way the hotels and, not only, I understand to behave with tourists.
Not by chance, in recent years, Romanians prefer to take the resorts in Greece, Turkey and even Bulgaria every summer. The conditions, but also the prices would be better in these countries. And not only that.
One of the reasons why the young people avoid the Romanian coast is the music of questionable quality that sounds everywhere in the speakers and causes them discomfort. Thus, those who try to enjoy beaches and the sea water are soundproofed, some complain. The best proof that this disturbs is that the subject is debated including on social networks, but also on the Reddit portal. Here, an Internetaut proposed the theme “Manelist coast”and the other members reacted immediately.
“What are these manele at the maximum in the middle of the day, on terraces and shalers? It’s the post that opened the debate.
Revolted Romanians
Most Internet users gave him justice. People expressed frustration that the Romanian coast has become a place, in their opinion, non-frequent.
“Well, it’s fixed for the target audience. In Costinești it is the capital of the peasantry and the manele on the coast”someone replied. Another intervened and criticized the author of the post. “He went to Costinesti to listen to Beethoven? And he judges others for their sins.“
“Those have the money, not the poor who complain on the reddit and pay taxes, like us... ”, someone else wrote.
“I do not understand why you wonder. Cocalarism and manele are 1 in us. You expected to put Beethoven? Let’s be serious,” An internet intervened in question. “No, they were before. Only now they are given to the maximum in the middle of the day. And there is still whispering why the world goes to Greece,” replied the author of the initial post.
Manele in power
Someone else talked about the fact that Romanians generally listen to manele and trap. In fact, the trend is clear, and the number of those who prefer these kinds of music is much higher than that of rock, dance or pop lovers.
“I have now looked in trending on YouTube and the first 10 songs, 7 are manele. This is the truth, this is the musical genre mainly in Romania. In vain do we hide behind the finger. Most listen to the manele.“He pointed out.
“First Time? And in customs they were screaming the manele a few years ago. Go to Sfântu Gheorghe or Sulina, you have 30 kilometers of empty beach and tranquility”, It was the advice given by someone.
“Honestly it is a bit of this phase with the Romanian coast. We really have a coast that could be enhanced without so many cockroaches. Do you know how much you do from Bucharest to Sulina? 12 hours (6 hours train, 6 hours BAC). Literally more than a flight to New York.” he put another point on i.
Manele everywhere
“There were manele at Neversea Kapital, why am I surprised to be on the terrace?”, Other someone else commented. Another has shown black humor:
“As long as the customs were put on this year, it is clear. I personally took a shovel, now we see if SAP for a pool I will not go to sea or dig my grave to go nowhere.”
“You know that the coast has been unsteady when it is cheaper to make your pool at home”, someone else joked. There were also more radical opinions. “Listening to manele in Romanians is rather a pretty serious mental illness”, It was an opinion.
“Besides this and they listened hard, when they disturb others, only for their own pleasure of oligofreni”, attacked the author of the post again.
“The manele for me are like a witness of poverty combined with stupidity. When Romania will get rid of manele and poverty inherited from our own families, then we will attend the beginning of a true Romania. We have many decades, if not hundreds of years,” It was another opinion.
“Nemanelist coast has not been since 2005”, someone pointed out. “I have not been to our coast in 2013 and I do not regret any moment. And it is said that the situation is more serious than then,” wrote another.
Romanians who see things differently
However, there were different opinions. “I was in Olimp, the last 3 years in a row. I have not heard the hands at all, nowhere, neither on the cliff, nor at the beach, nor on the terraces. It matters and where you go … “someone wrote.
“What would you like to put on the tourists when they come with the portable speakers on the beach and put the manele?”, Added someone else.
According to travel agencies, last month most reservations at the seaside resorts were made for the weekend, while in previous years people often stayed a week or even more at sea. In addition, this year, to save money, most tourists chose last minute offers.
