We had a wonderful rest from July 12 to July 26.2008. In general, Croatia is amazing and insanely beautiful, but only the lazy did not write about it. I will say that the climate is very mild - there is no suffocating heat and high humidity, the breeze blows and even during the day in the heat - you can walk - and not wallow all the time during the day like "vegetables" under air conditioners : -)
The hotel is currently worthy of 3 *, but only because of the lack of refrigerators in the rooms. If not for this nuance - then a bold European 4-ka! We knew that there would be no refrigerator, and I was dissatisfied with this fact in advance - but somehow for 2 weeks we did not sharply feel its absence - either because there was enough water and drinks during breakfasts, lunches, dinners, or because didn't sit in the room much. And so the room has everything you need - a very decent hair dryer (1900 W), towels were changed regularly, bedding 3 times in 2 weeks (here, of course, one could argue), gels, shampoos and creams were added regularly (although soap was "squeezed" - limited to 2 pieces - but "we had it with us" : -)), so we were not particularly upset). Apparently there was a renovation not so long ago, so the photos on some sites do not correspond to reality - at least the bathrooms are certainly much better. Cleaned up regularly.
Power - solid "5"-ka! This is not Turkish "All", but the food is more familiar to us - Europeans and very tasty! The fish is varied, several types of meat, mussels and shrimps are fresh and large, there are not many vegetables and greens (compared to Turkey), but believe me, it’s enough. Very tasty dairy products - salted and low-fat cottage cheese, cheeses! And pretzels, croissants, pancakes in the morning - I really have never eaten anything tastier in my life! They say croissants were invented by the Croats, and then the French appropriated the authorship - and I believed that this was so. We regularly filled a bottle with water and took it with us to the beach - and not only we, and only on the last day we were slightly scolded for this - so there is nothing to scare people with the fact that you can die of thirst in this hotel! Wine (especially red) is a worthy thing. White was always at room temperature, and red was cold, which is strange - but it turned out to be good : -)

The beach is really a 3-minute walk from the hotel. A very good Copacabana beach is free, you only need to pay for umbrellas and sunbeds. There is everything for water sports and diving. Several good cafes. True, we didn’t go to this beach so often - there are many wild beaches, cozy coves in the vicinity, that is, there was where to dive and sunbathe away from the people. Although, in fairness, I must say that there are few people at all - the beaches are half empty - and mostly only foreigners and locals - which is very pleasing! The sea is amazing, the water was just right for us - 25 degrees, for the children, of course, the pool was more suitable (I don’t write about the pool in principle - I swim in bleach with a crowd of people - we try a maximum of 1-2 times in all hotels). In the second week of our stay, the north wind "borax" blew and mixed the layers into the sea - this happens very often in the Crimea - and the water became 21-22 degrees - I didn’t want to dive head first.
Animation - I won't even write anything so as not to offend the guys. Who is coming here for this - turn around and go to Turkey! : -))
The only remark for the citizens of Ukraine - we are from Donetsk and I know that this site is popular not only in Russia - it turns out that we are not allowed on excursions to Montenegro, Bosnia and Herzegovina, etc. Even if you have a Schengen visa! That is, 70% of the proposed excursions are not available to us! For us, it was a bummer, but what can you do - as the popular joke says, "what country - such a terrorist attack. " Happy holidays everyone!
