Reviews and Ratings
I stayed at this hotel and found it to have both positive and negative aspects. The rooms had a lot of mosquitoes, so be sure to bring repellent, and they needed more maintenance. However, there was a standing tub for gazing while relaxing near the window. The outdoor area had a dried-up garden with garbage, which was disappointing, and the hotel looked run down.
My stay at the hotel was simply wonderful. The rooms offered stunning sea views and the bed was incredibly comfortable. It was a relaxing haven to return to after a day of exploring. On the downside, the bathrooms were quite small, but that didn't overshadow the overall experience.
The hotel offers a perfect stay with great rooms, exceptional service, an amazing location close to Hvar town, and excellent dining choices. However, room sizes may be a bit small for some.
The hotel is in a wonderful location, just a short walk to Hvar town, providing easy access to the oceanfront and town hotspots. The rooms are comfortable, though a bit outdated, lacking balconies. The service is exceptional, with meticulous attention to detail in table setting, but at times felt a bit distant or unapproachable. The dining experience offers variety but falls short in keeping food temperature consistently hot and maintaining sanitation standards. The surroundings are beautiful and convenient, with stunning pools and a large complex, although the hotel is bigger than expected. Overall, a great choice for a pleasant stay in Hvar.
The hotel was nicely decorated and spotlessly clean, offering a good queen bed in a large room. The service was very helpful, even providing a free upgrade for our comfort with a 1-year-old. The location was perfect, offering stunning views and a good balance of being away from town yet easily accessible. The dining experience was enjoyable with a huge selection, although the buffet area could get crowded. The facilities were well-maintained, adding to a pleasant stay.
My stay at the resort was mixed. The room size was a bit small, and being located at the back of the resort wasn't pleasant, although the room itself was spacious and delivered breakfast with a sea-view terrace which was a great experience. The service was exceptional overall, but there were some issues like kids playing in the gym. The location was fantastic with quiet spaces and lively poolside areas, but there were inconveniences with payments. The dining experience had variety but could have been more sanitary.
The hotel offers a small but cozy room, yet compensates with extensive outside areas featuring pools and a swim-up bar. The lack of storage space is a downside, but the light ambiance from the glazed walls is a nice touch.
The hotel boasts a peaceful location overlooking the Adriatic Sea, making it a potentially top choice in Hvar town. However, the presence of disruptive guests in cheaper rooms can mar the experience. The rooms provide a pleasant balcony setting with garden views but might face foliage at the back. The dining options are varied with a great bay view, though some facilities may not match the premium pricing.
The hotel had stunning scenery to wake up to each morning in slightly dated rooms, but the service was amazing with helpful staff. The location was fantastic with easy access to the sea and a short walk to the old town, making it worth the price. The dining experience offered a mix of great and average options.
The hotel rooms were quite small for the price, not meeting the standard expected from a 5-star property. The lack of a proper restaurant for dinner and poor concierge service for booking trips were disappointing. On the bright side, the buffet-style dining offered a decent variety, and the location provided a peaceful setting just a short walk from the town.
I felt enticed to upgrade the room; however, the cleanliness could be improved as the rooms gave off a basement-like impression. It was a tad inconvenient to reach the rooms from the main areas due to the hotel's large size, requiring carrying luggage up stairs without elevators.
