Pros:

Really liked the fact you could use your half board on drinks as well as food. And you weren’t set on what times you ate. Also liked the soup and salad that was free and available majority of the day. Sun beds around the pool were very comfy and was always able to get a good spot. Perfect location and highly recommend taking a walk into Stari Grad.

Cons:

Could have had a bit more variation with the food. If you’re there for more than a few nights it would get quite boring. Would have also been nice to have more entertainment in the evening but that might have been because of the time of year. Be prepared to most likely need to pay for a taxi to and from Hvar.

Pros:

Sve je bilo u redu, drugačiji tip smještaja, hotela.
Obilje hrane, vrlo ukusna hrana, sadržaji sve u redu.

Cons:

Odvojeni bračni krevet, prostor sobe je samo zamaskiran, obojen, očekivao bih smještaj sa novim završnim oblogama tipa pločica, boje na zidovima, tuš kabina iz 2000. Vidi se da je smještaj starije gradnje.

Grundsätzlich toller Aufebthalt mit toller Athmisphäre. Gutes Feühstück.
Pros:

Sauber, nettes Personal. Sieht so aus, wie auf den Bildern. Pool, viele Liegemöglichkeiten. Gratis Parkplatz, tolles Frühstück. Gratis Wasser und Früchte den ganzen Tag. Ebenso Salat und Suppe am Mittag und abends gratis.

Cons:

Menue-Auswahl (speziell für Vegetarier)und Qualität dürfte besser sein

Urlaub in Stari Grad
Pros:

- nettes Personal
- gutes Essen, Frühstücksangebot ist hervorragend
- Flex Option für Lunch oder Dinner funktioniert gut, so ist man nicht an genaue Zeiten gebunden und kann jeden Tag neu entscheiden
- tolles Sportangebot und kleiner Outdoor Trainingsbereich

Cons:

- An einigen Stellen doch in die Jahre gekommen, um auf 4* Standard zu bleiben müsste doch einiges renoviert werden und die Außenanlagen besser gepflegt werden
- Blick am Wasser auf Baustelle und Fähranleger fand ich jetzt nicht super ansprechend
- liegen am Wasser nochmal 10€ extra, für Hotelgäste!
- alles in allem, wer absolute Ruhe und Entspannung sucht sollte hier keinen Urlaub machen, aber ansonsten schon empfehlenswert
