Well, here we are back, a month has already passed with a pretty penny and we want to go back! : ))) The previous review was left by my friend anna, who flew to visit me for a week, with the same toddler as mine. I want to add (for indecisive mothers) that she flew in and flew away alone with the child, in fact, like me (our daddy safely left "for work" two weeks earlier.

Well, here we are back, a month has already passed with a pretty penny and we want to go back! : ))) The previous review was left by my friend anna, who flew to visit me for a week, with the same toddler as mine. I want to add (for indecisive mothers) that she flew in and flew away alone with the child, in fact, like me (our daddy safely left "for work" two weeks earlier. I can only say one thing, the previous trip to the sea (with a baby - 9 hours in a car) was MUCH more difficult and harder for me than 2 hours 30 minutes of air travel together with a child (despite a 3-hour flight delay and our temperature of 38.5 - teeth). My 2-month search for a good hotel - was crowned with success !!! I highly recommend!

We rested in the hotel with a child who is not yet 2 years old. I liked it very much. This was our first trip to Croatia, before that I was passing through Dubrovnik. It should be noted that Istria has a different climate from southern Croatia and Montenegro. It is much nicer and more comfortable here, during the week of our vacation we did not see people burned in the sun, and a few days later we ourselves stopped smearing sunscreens.

It should be noted that Istria has a different climate from southern Croatia and Montenegro. It is much nicer and more comfortable here, during the week of our vacation we did not see people burned in the sun, and a few days later we ourselves stopped smearing sunscreens. In addition, it is much calmer here, there are much fewer people.
The hotel is very quiet and calm. There is a supermarket on site that sells food, toys for children. From baby food - nestle, from diapers - mostly diapers. There is a market in the mind.
The villas are equipped with absolutely normal utensils, pots, cutlery, knives (although the latter were blunt).
We came to visit a friend who had already been in the hotel for 2 weeks, and she liked it so much that she stayed for 2 more weeks. By our arrival, she bought up all the missing household items (a bucket for washing clothes, towels, napkins, a broom, a board). Upon request, high chairs, toasters, coffee makers are provided. We were really unlucky with a chair, everyone was busy. All villas have clothes dryers.
The hotel is very large, located in the forest, squirrels jump right next to the houses and the beach. Very clean. There are a lot of beaches around and they are all different, there are sandy and shallow ones - like the Sea of u200bu200bAzov, there is a platform with entry into the sea by stairs), there is a stone one (when we were driving I thought that a beach with stones is a terrible thing, but my opinion has now radically changed - the main thing is to wear slippers. we swam with children in such small coves among the stones, caught crabs, the children really liked it).
The pool is nice but not deep and not very big but very nice. Sun loungers near the pool 100 kunas, on the beach 20 kunas. There are parts of the beach where sun loungers are free. At least the beach we went to didn't have price signs and we weren't contacted about the payment.
The distances are really decent, so we rented bicycles with child seats (for a week 500 kunas or 70 euros). Expensive but I don't really regret it. We went on bicycles to Umag in the evenings. The whole road along the sea, very cool! ! and children sit quietly in child seats, by the way, helmets are provided for children at the rental.
There is a train that constantly runs to Umag (ticket 15 kunas), it's also very cool to ride on it !!
I traveled on my own without a ticket, I bought an air ticket in Siesta for 230 euros plus 50 euros for an infant. When a friend arrived, she accompanied her husband to Kyiv, and met us. I had to call a taxi back - 120 euros, a little expensive, kaesh, especially if you compare it with a plane ticket, but there were no other options. Ride with a breeze on a brand new BMW, the driver is almost in a bow tie. The car seat is very good, new (the car seats were used at the rental). The road took 1 hour, about 70 km.
The only thing that can be written down as a minus of the hotel is a strange cleaning system. Since we have two small children, we asked to be cleaned at 11-00 (moreover, we received a call from the reception and asked ourselves what time is convenient for us). But, the maids often came, much later, just when the children were asleep. We asked to come in an hour or two, they left saying well, and disappeared without a trace. And they returned only in the evening, after several calls to the reception. They explained to us that the maids do not understand either Russian or English, so it happened. Change towels and bedding once every three days. Beach towels give a deposit of 100 kunas.
There is a kids club, but it is designed for older children, so I won’t write details.
Still not entirely clear - the lack of internet in the rooms. Wi-Fi only in VIP villas, and for the rest at the reception (and still quite expensive, I don’t remember the exact price)
Overall, we enjoyed our stay very much and will definitely be back!
