Food was fabulous (small menu) and staff were super friendly and helpful. We used public bus to and from Pula. Bed was excellent and the air conditioning was perfect for a great night’s sleep. The small pool was never busy and we always got sunbeds. We found it very peaceful and quiet.

Incredible stay. We stayed for 5 nights as part of our honeymoon journey throughout Croatia. We were kindly upgraded to the "Fuoco 1" apartment and it was superb, immaculately clean, spacious with fantastic views of the marina from the private balcony. The staff were so friendly and helpful when my wife required some medical attention for her infected insect bite they signposted us to the tourist hospital. We dined at the on-site restaurant twice because the quality of food was so good and was reasonably priced. Aperol spritz only 8€ as an example. Highly reccomended and we hope to visit again in future anniversaries.

Our room was immaculately clean, well equipped and comfortable. The Staff are very polite and accommodating, at breakfast they will replace items or provide options as per your request. The pool area is very quiet and relaxing, we spent many hours relaxing or reading by the pool, with towels provided. The location of the hotel is perfect for exploring Pula and Istria areas, you can walk to beaches within 10 minutes, and drive to all main destinations easily. It's a beautiful place and we'd visit again if staying in Pula. We extended our stay by three nights, and they kept us in the same room even when the price was increased, for that we extremely grateful and more than happy to recommend to others.

The room was beautiful and huge! We got a private terrace with lounge chairs and patio furniture. The pool was very small but good for a quick dip just to cool off. The included breakfast was lovely (use the little black espresso machine not the nespresso, it’s much yummier). There is a restaurant in the resort and the food is good, but expensive. The staff was lovely, the young man at the front desk offered to carry our luggage to our room for us.

The staff was amazing! They were kind, genuinely friendly, and offered quality recommendations for sightseeing. The breakfast was fantastic and well worth the extra to enfold it into our reservations. Even in winter, this was a wonderful stay!

Amazing and quiet hotel, always space by the lovely, clean pool. Music a bit loud but only for part of the day with a pool bar. Great views of marina and we were upgraded to a room with a balcony. Clean and comfy beds with excellent much-needed air con! Really friendly and helpful staff, we arrived after reception closed due to delayed flight and had trouble locating room, but restaurant staff were really great and helped us! Also looked after our luggage so we could enjoy the morning before flight home. Breakfast had a variety of things, fresher earlier on but still tasty. Quite hot at most tables though as no blinds for view of marina. Nearby you can walk to beaches, beach bars, cafes, restaurants and snack bar over the road. Plus the amazing Aquarium!

This hotel was in a fantastic setting. We were really pleased to experience a quiet, adult only atmosphere in a location where it was just a short and easy trip to Pula Town and there were other useful facilities close by. All the staff were absolutely fantastic, helpful and polite. We were disappointed however at the lack of facilities. Specifically the lack of outdoor seating and bar area and facilities you might want by the pool such as easy access to affordable drinks and snacks which you might expect somebody to want during a day by the pool. We know the hotel has both these things but they weren't open and this was disappointing and meant we had to walk elsewhere to get things and so only ended up spending half a day by the pool.

Pula Trip

The hotel staff were very kind and the friendly cats outside were adorable. Unfortunately, the beds, though twin size, were difficult to sleep on. Also there was an annoying vibration coming though the wall all night long. The bathroom floor had hair on it from a previous guest. There was also clearly no “quiet time” rule as certain guests were outside at 6 am yelling and talking, slamming the doors and clearly not caring how they affected other guests. Honestly, I probably wouldn’t stay here again. The breakfast was nice, but a little basic. One morning were offered eggs of a varying kind and then the next day nothing.

This hotel is nicely situated right near the boat port and overlooking the Adriatic Sea. The exterior and interior of the hotel is very modern but does not go overboard. The rooms are well designed and the on suite is a wow factor! The balcony overlooks the waters and furnishings were perfect. The breakfast buffet did not have many selections given the capacity the resort could house. We understood that and did not have any complaints about that. The amenities were perfect with a pool and massage service if scheduled in advance. We did not look at all the other amenities since we were focused on the Pula Colosseum and visiting the city of Rovinj that was approximately 30 minutes away via the freeway/toll road. The front desk was very helpful and English was used without any issues. The only downside was in our room was one roll of toilet paper and no extra roll anywhere. I had to ask the front desk to supply us with one. Overall, we would come here again if we visit Pula in the future.
