Lovely stay exceeding our expectations.
Pros:

Requested a quiet room and they delivered on this. The King room was spacious, with a wonderful bed, great walk-in shower, excellent A/C and spotless thanks to the wonderful cleaning lady. I wish I had her name, room 3421 July 15-20. Returned to the room when she was cleaning. Found her crouched and vigorously scrubbing a spot on the patio with the sun blazing on her (bird poop?). I saw her daily and she consistently worked at a furious pace to clean each room. She should be recognized. Please tip these folks. The location is superb with multiple pools and loungers dotted amongst the rocks with great access to the clear clean water from ladders. The breakfast offerings were plentiful, with something for every taste. We ate at a variety of times from 7:30 to 10:25 during our stay and the food stations were topped up. I had two sport massages at the spa for leg pain that occurred on the trip and the male practitioner was very good. I would give our experience a 10 save for the mediocre food in the bar restaurants at a high price. All of the staff we encountered were friendly and welcoming.

Cons:

The gym's equipment could do with an upgrade and it faces south. My timing wasn't great and it was very hot in the afternoon. The A/C could not keep up with the temps.

We’ll be back again! Highly recommend!
Pros:

We loved all the options at breakfast and especially the egg station! Beds were so big and very comfortable. There was plenty of sun loungers too no matter what time we went down at. The staff at check in and check out were lovely and couldn’t have done more for us. Great selection of restaurants too! We could have stayed in the hotel the whole time also there was no need to leave it had everything!

Cons:

Bar staff at the beach club were quite poor. Often didn’t come to take our order for a while and missed some orders. Customer relations lady could have done more when asked about different options for transport onto our next destination.

Pros:

Die Lage ist sehr gut, die Liegestühle am Strand sind gratis, aber im Sommer halt schnell besetzt

Cons:

Das Frühstück ist zwar reichhaltig, aber ich fand die Speisen nicht sehr ansprechend angerichtet. Es gibt zwar warme und kalte Speisen, aber zum Bsp ist die Früchteauswahl sehr bescheiden.

Amazing Sea Views and attentive staff
Pros:

amazing seaside resort with multiple dining options, pools, and places to relax. You cannot beat the views of the Adriatic. Overall just a great stay and the food was very good. Not far from historic old town.
