Not the kind of beach we expected.(David P)

Drinks a little expensive. (Savvytjw)

Have beach shoes for the beach near hotel as the pebbles are very hard to walk on barefoot. Drinks for dinner are over priced.(veky994)

This is a great hotel in a quiet and peaceful location - set amongst lots of trees with a small stony beach very close by. There's plenty of free parking and there are nice tree-lined walks in the vicinity of the hotel. The hotel is extremely comfortable - good size rooms/bathrooms which are kept spotlessly clean. The breakfast and dinner buffet was excellent with an extensive choice of delicious hot and cold foods, all very fresh and varied each day. Hotel staff are very friendly and accommodating. There's a salt-water pool which is very clean, as is the whole pool area - maintained early each morning by hotel staff. During our stay, we encountered only one issue which we felt let the hotel down somewhat - the absence of any free tap/drinking water at dinner time. A 5.60 euros for a large bottle, it becomes expensive every day. Free tap water should always be available. To the hotel's credit, and after raising this issue with a manager, we were delighted to see that water became available from a dispenser in the dining area at dinner time a couple of days later. Thank you to the hotel for being responsive and taking our comments on board. I highly recommend the hotel and would definitely visit again. It's a great place for a peaceful and relaxing holiday.

I had a lovely stay here. Nothing was too much trouble. I was out on a day trip and the hotel provided me with a packed lunch and a cold meal when I got back. Extremely helpful at reception throughout. Wake up calls arranged. Would highly recommend a stay here. Spotlessly clean too. Thank you. 😊

Excellent holiday. My wife and I loved the hotel. It is clean, clean! The check in and check out was easy. We arrived at around 11 am and our room was ready. Maid service daily. Overlooking the pool and we could see and hear the sea on the small beach. Small balcony which is all what we requested. Food in the restaurant was very good and varied each evening. Salads, fish , meat deserts, fresh fruit, cheeses. All of the staff were polite and seemed to enjoy their work, all very attentive to the well being of the clients. If I had to sing praises of one member of staff it would be Dario. My wife slipped on the first day ( no fault of the hotel). We wanted to do the walking tour of Pula and he assured us that if it was too much for her he would stay with us to be able to complete the tour at our own pace. The tour was excellent and was at a nice slow pace with plenty of resting points. Dario asked many times if all was ok during our stay. Definitely recommend this hotel if you want a quiet relaxing holiday. No complaints from us!! Thanks to all of you
