Stayed in this hotel with my husband.
To begin with, the operator (namely, IBCI Travel) a little overshadowed our first impression of the vacation, because upon arrival in Split we were not on their lists, so the ferry transfer left without us (the ferry departed at 21.00, the time was way 45 minutes) and we had to wait for the next flight with tourists to go with them to the island. And the next ferry sailed already at 23.59! And instead of being at the hotel at 22.00, we arrived at 01.00! Of the pluses about the memory of this incident, the only thing was that we, since we had 3 hours of free time, were able to walk around Split, its central promenade. Very picturesque. In the evening, life boils there) It turned out to be such a mini-tour of Split))
Arriving at the hotel, we were waiting for dinner and a room.

I will say right away, having read the preliminary reviews, I was a little wary, and I reacted superficially to the conversations of the manager of the travel agency where the tour was bought, and then the representatives of the operator company, that this is a wonderful hotel with the best beaches. But in vain.
The hotel is really top notch. What does it have to do with everything. Starting with the well-groomed territory and rooms and ending with the desired temperature (! ) of dishes.
So, we were given a room number 828 in the Adria Club building, where only foreigners, mostly French, rest. But we ate in the restaurant building Kaktus (we had "breakfast-dinner"). Breakfast there from 07.00 to 10.00, dinner from 19.00 to 21.00. The all-inclusive system also includes lunch from 12.00 to 14.00. Since the abundance and variety of food was impressive, I think that "breakfast and dinner" is more than enough. An exception, perhaps, if you come with children.
Now about food. Breakfast - at least 5 types of cheeses, sausages and ham (not "paper" ones, as in Egypt), fresh vegetables, salads, yogurts, breakfast cereals, boiled eggs, grilled vegetables, mashed potatoes, scrambled eggs, cottage cheese, jams, honey, pancakes or pancakes are made according to your request, they also make scrambled eggs. From fruits - oranges, grapefruit, pineapples in juice, bananas, casseroles, cookies, punches. From drinks - grapefruit, apple and orange juices (not "yupi"! ), water, tea of ​ ​ various types, coffee machine with several types of coffee drinks such as espresso, coffee with milk, cappuccino, chocolate and latte macchiato. There was always fresh milk as well.
For dinner, the dishes changed. Once a week seafood - mussels, squid, octopus. Pizza all the time. Several types of salads (including salads with seafood), lasagna, pasta with seafood, meat, spaghetti, french fries, baked potatoes, grilled vegetables, meat in its various types of preparation (chicken, pork, beef. . . ), fish (stewed, grilled, fried.... Lots of desserts and fruits (watermelon, melon, plum, apples, pears, peach, kiwi. . . ) Drinks for dinner only water and soda.
If you eat according to the "all inclusive" system - then juices, wine, beer. Ice cream for lunch too.

Now about the sea and the beach. Crystal clear and transparent sea. After dinner, sometimes it becomes a little cloudy. The entrance is rocky, many swim with specials. shoes, but despite the fact that I took such shoes, I still didn’t swim in them, because I consider them quite uncomfortable and hot) I can say that we didn’t have any special problems with entering the sea even without shoes. Well, it's a bit annoying, sometimes painful)
The beach is small pebbles. Purely. On the beach there are sunbeds and umbrellas. We didn't use them, as the pebbles are a great back massage, but it seems like they were free for vacationers at the hotel. Outsiders paid. But I will not claim.
We often lay on sunbeds in the shade after dinner - no one took a fee from us.
The territory of the hotel is very large and picturesque. You can walk - you can't walk up) Palm trees, pine trees, cacti, various flower plants and other coniferous trees... The air is clean.
To the center of Supetar (a very wonderful town! ) 5-7 minutes walk along cafes and souvenir shops.
We didn’t go anywhere from excursions, since most of them take a whole day, and this is on the mainland, and we only had 7 days... We ourselves went to the city of Bol (on the opposite side of the island) to the famous Zlatny Rat beach ". A round-trip ticket costs 50 kunas per person (1 kuna equals approximately 1.5 hryvnias). Let me tell you, I am not impressed. A lot of people, more like a Crimean beach) but the entrance to the sea is small pebbles, it doesn’t hurt. Bol itself is also nothing special. Supetar wins a lot. By the way, on the way to Bol we passed several towns of the island, very picturesque) In general, there is something to see.
Internet. Available at the reception, paid. It costs 30 minutes - 20 kunas, 1 hour - 30 kunas and so on.
If you have any other questions - ask, I will answer.
I highly recommend this hotel and the island itself. The sea, ancient architecture, white sailboats, and all this, surrounded by an incredible amount of vegetation, will give you an unforgettable experience!
