10/10 Excellent
"Everything about our stay was wonderful. The hotel is perfectly situated, right next to the sea/beach and a few beachside bars, a five minute walk to the marina and a 10 minute taxi ride to the Old Town. The hotel food was the best we have ever had - truly surprising for the price paid. Dinner comprises four courses, with delicious salads/desserts from a buffet and a choice of starter/main from an à la carte menu. Superb. The hotel staff were wonderful - friendly, helpful and attentive. They really made our stay special. Thanks to all of them, from the staff at reception, pool bar staff, wait staff and bar staff. The rooms were clean and comfortable, maintained to a high standard. The daily cleaning was great, and the cleaning staff friendly. The pool area was comfortable and quiet. Perfect for relaxing in the good weather. Finally, the evening entertainment was brilliant. We normally hate hotel entertainment and run a mile, but at this hotel it was charming and tasteful. From dancers, to musicians and our favourite - slight of hand magician Kris - they made our evenings very enjoyable. I think Kris may well have actual magical powers. We took a private yacht excursion on one day, arranged through the hotel. Our yachtsman, Ante, was excellent company and we had a fantastic day, for a very reasonable price. Thank you for such a wonderful stay. We will be sure to return."

"Everything was quite. Just a waren up at 2.30 missed and on asking why, I was told that the receptionist rang the room number. But no sound was heard and anyway, one should wait until the person answers. Or go to the room. Also last minute on leaving I was told to pay the local tax, which one could have done on arrival or when visiting the reception. The prebooked lunchpaket was forgotten to be handed over early morning. Everything else was excellent."

The city truly comes alive during this period, with all beachside amenities fully operational and a bustling atmosphere around the waterfront promenades.

These islands offer numerous quiet coves and beaches, superb for a relaxing day of sunbathing and swimming away from the main tourist hubs.
Is it cheaper to book flights and a beach hotel in Zadar as a package?
