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.

Location & surroundings stunning. Hotel has a spacious feel.

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.

rooms are a bit old

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.

Beautiful property. Booked quickly online very last minute after an overnight flight. Didnt realize it was on an island with a 15 minute ferry ride. Arrived tired in the dark but woke up to an amazing view. Wish we could of stayed longer.

Hotel is a bit dated and rooms are a little cramped, but the amenities are top notch

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!

The hotel is in an amazing location, and the bar staff are very efficient and friendly, however on checkout there was a problem with the bill where I had been over charged by some 750 euros, and the night porter was unable to rectify, he very aggressively demanded my card for payment which I refused, I suggested that the hotel email me the correct bill and I would pay it as they already had my card details as did the booking agent, when I tried to take my cases to the ferry shuttle, the night porter violently grabbed my arm and jostled me back into the hotel, which I regarded as an assault this was also in front of my 12 year old daughter which she found quite destressing, by this time another member of staff had arrived altered my bill to the correct amount and I settled the bill, I then had to travel back on the shuttle ferry with the night porter and on leaving the terminal, he then drove up behind us and starting verbally abusing myself and my daughter and making rude gestures, we were cornered for our safety, I have emailed the hotel and they called and apologised for his behaviour as did some other members of staff at the time, I am awaiting further contact from the hotel before I decide to try and press charges against the man, (I would prefer this not go public until I have tried to resolve the issues with the hotel and spoken to your own customer services)

Very nice hotel, easily the most relaxing beach in Rovinj, easy access to the mainland via shuttle boat.

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.

Excellent stay, Hotel rooms were basic and small for a 4 star hotel, Air con in rooms and public areas could be better. Staff services were very good (bar, catering,) Ferry service to mainland was very good, but more info should be provided by the hotel about drop off and pick up points. We travelled with friends and both had queries when booking out. Both parties were charged for several miniature bottles of Jack Daniels used from the mini bar. Neither of them drink Jack Daniels. One of the reception staff was not happy about removing the charges from the final Bill. If you use the mini bar note what you drink!

Comfortable and relaxing. Ideal location if you want to get away from the buzz of tourists/locals.

Hotel was very clean, efficient friendly staff nothing is too much trouble. It was my birthday whilst visiting and I returned to my room one day and found a bottle of wine with birthday greetings, such a pleasant surprise. I can't fault anything about my stay at all. Access to the town was a boat ride which ran on time and regular. The venue itself has a choice of bars and restaurants so you don't need to leave the island if you don't want too. Nature walks around the island are beautiful. There is something for everyone whether you enjoy sport or just want a rest. Overall I had a very nice relaxing experience and I would most certainly return. I would highly recommend this hotel.

extremely nice, quiet place within a semi-wild environment , free car island where access is only by water

Facilities are good and varied. The setting is beautiful. Rovinj is a nice base. The hotel is good value in many ways. Minor issues: We booked a superior triple room, sea facing with one double and one single bed. On arrival we were allocated a room without any view at all and it turned out that in all triple rooms the third bed is a sofa bed (and quite a hard one). We moved to a room with a lovely sea view the next day, but the room description on Expedia could have been more accurate.
