Hotel Kumsal Amasra is a mid-range hotel situated in the Büyük Liman neighborhood of Amasra, the historic port town in Turkey's Bartın province on the western Black Sea coast. The hotel's defining feature is its proximity to Büyük Beach (Büyük Liman strand), with the beach accessible within approximately 50 metres of the property — one of the shortest beach walks of any accommodation in Amasra. Büyük Beach is the principal swimming destination on Amasra's outer harbor side, a sandy and pebble stretch that draws the majority of the town's summer visitors. Rooms are available in standard double, sea-view double, and family configurations; sea-view rooms face the Black Sea directly and are the most popular category, particularly in July and August when Amasra reaches peak domestic tourism. Air conditioning is standard across all room types, and breakfast is included in the rate, providing a practical start to a day at the beach. The hotel is positioned within the Büyük Liman Mahallesi, which forms the commercial and tourist hub of Amasra; the harbor-side promenade, fish restaurants, tea gardens, and small shops are within a few minutes' walk. Amasra's historical quarter — the Byzantine castle on the Kalekale hill, the Roman gate columns, and the Amasra Museum — is reachable on foot in under 20 minutes. From the hotel, day trips can be organized to Inkumu Beach (approximately 35 km west by road), Gideros Bay, or Bartın city (17 km south) for the Ottoman mansion district. Hotel Kumsal Amasra is particularly well-suited to beach-focused stays and families who want direct access to swimming without a lengthy walk.
