Best Hotels in Funtana, Croatia

We visited as a family of five in Aug 2023 for a week. Initial impressions were great, a bag meal on arrival having missed dinner due to our flight. Day one, woke up early, lovely view from our apartment and great weather, food was ok and lots of choices for breakfast. We ate at the pool bar first day which was nice to snack on. The hotel also provides Pizza at 5pm. The three teenagers enjoyed the water sports provided, however I was a little concerned not life jackets were provided. A duo played a nice set in the evening for entertainment. The next three days we had terrible weather, this made us start to look us look at the facilities in the hotel. Although refurbished, the rooms are small, three persons in deluxe room consists of a small camp bed was not ideal. Rooms were cleaned daily, however we were left without loo roll on two days. The lighting in the corridor is not safe, having activated after you walked down the stairs from the second floor. The most shocking thing is the smell from the communal toilets, which clearly haven’t been cleaned in weeks, also walking passed the gents my wife could see men doing a number one which was unpleasant. Massive lack of evening entertainment during the rest of the week, mediocre food, lack of atmosphere and a struggle to find anything to do. The pool table is awful and needs replacing, did not work. Mini club staff were sat on their phones paying no intention to anything. The all inclusive beer an d wine is poor quality and only local top shelf is served after 9pm. The lack of being able to pay for premium drinks on card was also disappointing. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone traveling to Croatia unless you want to go to bed at 9pm

My boyfriend and I visited here in July 2022, it is by far one of the best holidays we have had. Croatia is a beautiful country and I would definitely recommend to everyone! This hotel is a lovely place to stay, very clean and the staff are always friendly especially at reception and in the pool bar. The rooms are spacious and clean. We had a great balcony with a view of the sea. There is a mini bar in the fridge that is restocked daily and you are provided with a receipt of what you have spent each day for you to pay at reception at the end of your stay. There are two pools next to eachother with plenty of sun beds available, we arrived on our first day at 12pm and were able to get a bed. We never went down earlier than 9:30am to get a bed. The pools are clean, music quietly playing around them and aqua aerobics. The breakfast has a large choice of pastries, pancakes, fruit, cooked food, etc. We didn’t eat in the hotel restaurant in the evening as were out and about in the resort trying the other restaurants and cocktail bars (great location!!) The pool bar is great for lunch. We ate here most days as it is reasonably priced and the service is quick. We didn’t stay in the hotel for the entertainment in the evening but most nights out of the 7 we were there they had entertainment on a big stage on the beach. This was different each time and always a good watch. The best was a fireworks show out on the water! Would 100% return to this hotel in the future.

Love this hotel! It’s so light and modern. Staff are friendly and helpful. Good food selection of different meats, fish and vegetables but also pizza and pasta. The free drinks are also a bonus! It’s an amazing location perfect for a family holiday as there are lots to do for children such as bike hire, mini golf, pedalos ect.. I would say it is amazing for a 3 star hotel. You can always get a sun bed round the pool and it has a very relaxed a**osphere. The rooms were very clean, light and modern with good views on the back of the pool and sea. It is a 15-20 minuite walk in to porec along the coastline with a few bars and restaurants along the way but there is also a little train which you can get from bus stop Brulo for €2 or outside the hotel for €4 if you don’t want to walk. There are eco taxis available also. I would highly reccomend and we will definitely be back!

We stayed here for 11 nights. Upon arrival unfortunately the room was not available but then it was an early flight from Gatwick and we had landed at about 8:30 and got to resort at 9:30am so expected. The appar**ents that we were allocated were in a block just left of reception and down the steps. There was a handy golf buggy that was able to take us plus luggage part of the way then there was about 20 steps to go up. THERE ARE A LOT OF STEPS! so please bear in mind if you have limited mobility. Appar**ent: We had a one bedroom appar**ent. The kitchen has limited facilities: 2 ring hob and microwave, FridgeFreezer and that's it! no toaster no kettle (can get upon request). The room does have a safe and this is payable at €3 per day. The bedroom had a lovely balcony and there was also a balcony off the lounge with lovely views across the forest and towards the sea. The lounge has a large sofa dinning table and a wardrobe so in all you have two wardrobes. Towels are fresh daily but if you are like us and you don't require just leave them in view then you won't be unindated with them. Sheets you get clean sheets delivered every three days again if their not dirty why change. Bins were emptied daily. THERE IS NO CLEANING DONE BY THE CLEANING STAFF UNLESS REQUESTED AT AN EXTRA CHARGE. For us we tend to keep faily tidy so not a problem. There is an aircon unit in the lounge can be a bit noisy. POOL: No need for you to take a pool towel. You are handed a towel card when you check in and this can be exchanged for towels. Pool is freeezing! but fine once your in - its the getting in! The pool depth is from 1m35 to 1m10 so most can stand. There is a childs pool also. Remember you are self catering so you are aloud your own drinks and food etc around the pool. No glass. Resturant: Great food opens around noon. Large beer €4.50 bottle of wine €15 takeaway ice cream cone €2. Large portions, there is limit kids menu varied menu for adults. Supermarket: By reception not a great selection but handy. Supermarket at the bottom of the hill again not a great selection. These are both more expensive than the Spar in Porec Transport: The best way to get to Porec is via the tourist train. This can be picked up at the bottom of the hill by the Lito supermarket. It was €4 per person each way there is a time table in reception (take a photo). It can get a bit busy. The train also goes to the Zelena Resort definately worth a visit- lots of resturants and little coves for swimming and a few shops. Bikes can be rented from various points but can be expensive if you plan doing this each day. You can walk which is lovely through the forest takes about 35-40 minutes. Sea: Remember your watershoes as the sea is only accessible via stoney beaches or via ladders from the land edges. We enjoy'd our time here very peaceful although there is night life at the bottom of the hill and the resturant next to the pool can get quite jolly! Would recommend.

Take a two-room suite suite for a family with two children in August at the height of the season. Hotel 3*, but is definitely worth your money, service level is better than many fours. Features: 1) Very small rooms (size as in Hong Kong hotels or old buildings of European cities). Two in the room will move tightly, the suitcase can only be fully unlocked on the balcony. 2) Free lying is not enough for everyone, so it is necessary to take comfortable places from evening or early in the morning. 3) Staff at the bar at the pool sometimes trick, working without checks or selling drinks at a price higher than in the menu. Plus: 1) Clean and caring everything including rooms, common zones and territory around the hotel. The room was cleaned every day. 2) A large own pool, enough lying around it, also around there is its own green zone on grass with lying under umbrellas or in the shadow of the pineapple and Ciparis. 3) A good restaurant-table with drinks included in the cost of breakfast and dinner. During 2 weeks of rest, I didn't have time to eat, dinners change every evening, Thursdays local kitchen day. 4) Children feed lunch free of charge. For families with children it is just a rescue. 5) A lot of free entertainment throughout the day, from aquagimnasty yoga and volleyball to discotheque for children and adult show at night. Everyone will find something of its own. 6) Good beach at least 1 minute from the hotel. There is no need to pay for lying on the beach - you can leave things on lying at the pool and go swimming in the sea.

We received a fantastic offer including dinner, night and breakfast. We couldn't believe it was possible but it was true. Eat and drink enough but you must love a very net “food shop”. For the rest of the hotel, the room is not big but with views and the shower is a little craps.
