It’s now been nearly 3 weeks since we got home and we just want to return. Like many, after reading some reviews we were a bit doubtful but so glad we stuck with it. This hotel was just the best place to relax and chill. If you’re in any doubt the ignore the naysayers this place is just heaven (although just a couple of niggles). A - being all inclusive it’s a shame not all the drinks are free, you have to pay extra for premium brands. B - The hotel needs to address the location of sun beds as from what we saw there’s plenty of scope to make a beautiful section away from the pool C- the pool bar needs updating, the staff are hard working but the space they work in is lacking Now for the good bits - we booked a swim up room and if your budget allows then do it. We spent our mornings in our pool and on our verandah and after lunch headed to the beach. Beach shoes are a must but the sea is just, well just, beautiful to sit and swim in. We were aware of the whole paying for sun beds issue so we took our own beach chairs and parasol which gave us the freedom to choose where we sat. The sunsets were amazing. We didn’t partake of any activities as it’s not our thing but there were plenty on offer. The food was lovely and yes the staples (salad, pizza etc) were always there but always a great choice. Hubby had catfish, shark, mussels, salmon, hake …I could go on! The culinarium was lovely and worth a visit. We did a couple of trips, the sunset cruise to Makarska and the day trip to Dubrovnik which we highly recommend but take plenty of water, cool towels and fans if you have them as it was extraordinarily hot the day we visited. Makarska was worth a visit but definitely at night however if you go on the boat make sure you sit at the back as everyone at the front got drenched. As you look at the sea to the right there are a couple of guys who offer parasailing and jet skiing, we did both and can thoroughly recommend, we paid cash for these. The staff went above and beyond and were always very pleasant. Thea’s coffee bar was a must for iced coffees. The little gift shop stocks a good range of things but only takes cash so be aware. All in all a fantastic holiday, we look forward to returning some day.
