We had the most amazing week here. Myself and my 16 year old son loved the pool and all the facilities by the sea. The water was crystal clear and the snorkelling was the highlight. The rooms were fairly small but had lovely comfortable beds. We would have liked tea and coffee making facilities though. The food was delicious and staff were excellent and friendly. We gad an absolutely terrific holiday. We will be back.

Travelling with our 6 children from 17 to 27 years old, can be a challenge when it comes to meet all expectations. This resort has everything for everybody. The gym, SPA, volleyball court, the possibility for jogging around the two islands, the water activities, perfect for an very active family! Every night we took the ferry to the centre of Rovinj. Lots of fantastic restaurants! For special occasions, try Monte! All of us absolutely recommend this resort!

The hotel and surroundings are fantastic. The staff are very kind and professional. Keen to help and to go the extra mile! Food is good on the island, but there is also a ferry ( goes every hour) to take you to Rovinj and back. The Kids Club is friendly and lovely, and my children loved it.

Great nature, great sea. Hotel is on island, away from "party time", so not for those type of tourists. There is area for naked swim too. Hotel rooms are a bit aged, specially bathrooms. There are all possible sport activities, spa too.

Great location with good choice of different pools and beach sites , great breakfast - altough bigger choice of coffee would be nice . Easy to reach from Rovinj. Reception staff very kind and helpful, restaurant staff partly not flexible but also partly very kind.

Luxury, luxury, luxury. Definitely the best breakfast I have had the pleasure of enjoying at any US or European hotel. Be sure, if you stay here, to ask what the symbols on the doors, windows, and brochures mean. You will never guess.

On reaching Pula airport - no local bus service, only infrequent private bus, or taxi. This would be off-putting if arriving late night. Short transfer into Pula but private bus does not stop at bus station - it takes you away past to the marine area. We were going to Rovinj so had to walk back quite a bit with our cases to get a bus from bus station. Bus ticket purchased inside - careful to check time of travel and which bus company. We got our first view of the arena as we walked back, standing magnificently above all else. Rovinj is a one hour journey - (buses charge 10Kn per bag of luggage) but overall journey not expensive. Rovinj is a port area. We found an information office (aka bicycle hire and room hire) in a small corner on way to seafront. When enquiring how to find our hotel we were shocked to discover the only access was by boat!! (Visions of trying to find and hire a boat to take us to the hotel struck horror within us) - and I will say it was an anxious time constantly asking where to get the boat but were finally told to look out for a big blue boat and there was an actual timetable posted up at the sea end of the pier. We had a lovely meal in Rovinj and set out to the harbour - it was hot - and there is no shelter. We must have just missed one because the boat sails every hour - and it seemed like an age before the big blue boat finally pulled in. Our anxiety disappeared as the name of the hotel appears on the boat - it belongs to the hotel!

Nice hotel, good facilites. Breakfast and dinner were good, the staff is very hard-working and kind.

This is a very nice hotel, in an island just 15 minutes away from Rovinj by boat. The hotel itself is nice and very comfortable, but not sumptuous and not needing to be. When you come to such a holiday, you don't need fancy things. The rest of the amenities are very good and diverse. You have spa, gym, indoor and outdoor swimming pools. We didn't visit the pools since the Croatian sea is just amazing, but clearly this a plus for some people as there were some that stayed there. The food in the hotel is tasty and varied enough, and we could always find something that we liked. We didn't try the other restaurants in the island as the one in the hotel was good enough for us. The staff was friendly and always helpful. Regarding the island itself, it is stunning, with plenty of nice hidden places and incredible fauna! The hotel makes sure to provide sufficient support to beach goers in the for of sunbeds and showers. The only downside, in our view, is the price. It's fair for what you get, but for the rate we got, we could have have stayed in the Maldives or Seychelles. That being said, if the price is not an issue for you and you've never been to Croatia, this is a very good starting point which will not disappoint you!

Beautiful location on an island that is plenty big enough not to feel crowded. Lots of space to hide yourself away in a rocky cove, or sit by the pool if you prefer. Great fun snorkeling in crystal clear waters. Staff were very attentive and helpful, creating a relaxed atmosphere. Half board meals were plentiful with lots of choice to suit everyone although was a bit disappointing that we couldn't sit outside to eat in the evenings. Pool area was superb with lots of room to have fun with the kids and quite times too if you wanted to do lengths. Tiny niggles only regarding the room which was maybe not entirely spotless and the TV was small with a rubbish picture - not that it bothered me!

This Hotel is located in the most picturesque setting, the island is traffic free and so offers piece and quiet, yet only 15 minutes ferry from Rovinj, which runs every hour from 07.00 to 0.30 hrs daily. The Hotel and its grounds are set out beautifully. A lot of sun beds scattered around the grounds throughout the island, so you can find a very secluded place of your own and still swim off of the rocks. You can walk around the island and adjoining island in less than an hour. The views are simply breath taking. There is windsurfing and scuba. Diving on site both we used and are very good. The Hotel itself is of a high standard for a European 4 star. I am used to Caribbean standards but I was not disappointed. We had a suite which was wonderful and offered breakfast in a different area to the buffet in what was the Old Monastery with views over the Adriatic, it was the most beautiful setting. You wanted for nothing, service excellent. I cannot fault the place.
