Rest from 5 to 12 June. There are a couple of reviews about this hotel on the Internet, but I know from my own experience that when you are preparing for a trip, I really want to find not one, but several opinions on the Internet in order to put together an approximate picture of the upcoming vacation. The hotel has rooms with a recent fairly high-quality renovation and new furniture, and rooms in which repairs were made a very long time ago, there are also rooms with a large loggia and rooms in which there are simply windows "on the floor", but there are no balconies. Therefore, when you book this hotel, be sure to ask the travel agency in the application to indicate the presence of repairs and balconies. My travel agency offered me a guaranteed sea view, if I remember correctly for an additional 60 or 80 euros, but I thought that the view of the garden was quite good, and I did not regret it, the room was overlooking the courtyard, with an abundance of flowers and tangerine trees. There, in the evenings, concerts of chamber orchestras were held in the courtyard. it was very pleasant in the evenings sitting on the balcony with a glass of wine to listen to popular melodies performed by violin, cello and double bass. there were concerts with a different set of musical instruments. Attached is a photo of the courtyard. The hotel does not have its own beach, there are public beaches Cava beach and Capacabana beach nearby. But the concept of a hotel beach here also does not mean that only hotel guests will be on the beach. Basically, we went to the beach to the nearby hotel Prezedent 4 stars (we liked it the most). So, even though the hotel is fenced, all the gates are open and not only guests of the Valamar hotels, but also local residents go to the beach. This did not bother me at all, although I do not like crowded beaches, on the contrary, it seemed to me right, a manifestation of respect for my own fellow citizens. Croats own all these beauties and they have the right to relax where they want. Croats are a calm, not noisy and friendly people. There was a lot of noise only from the gangs of Croatian schoolchildren, who frolicked quite loudly. I noticed that free access to their own beaches of hotels exists not only in the Valamar network, hotels located nearby Neptun and others also do not interfere with free entry. Maybe that's how it should be? The sea during the week of our stay was always crystal clear, both in storm and in calm weather. You can choose the entrance to the sea to your taste: there are small sections of platforms with a descent down the stairs, and there are sections of a pebble beach, we felt quite normal even without rubber boots, realizing that foot massage is very good for health. In general, in early June, the beaches were not crowded, the sea was already quite warm 21-24 degrees, the air temperature was 27-28 in the shade. I did not regret that I chose June for my trip to Croatia. But for people who love the sea with the temperature of fresh milk, this is not the time to go. The only disadvantage of such an early trip is that not all excursions are carried out. I wanted to go to the island of Mljet, but the guide said that the catamarans were broken, but I think this refusal was due to the lack of a large number of Russian-speaking people. There were only 3 Russian speaking families in our hotel. For those who speak English, German or French well, this will not be a problem, since there is an office of a local tube bureau near the hotel where you can book any excursion, but with guides who speak these languages. We went on an excursion called "DOlores" - a trip on the boat of the same name around the Elven Islands with swimming in the sea, swimming in the grotto of one of the islands, and landing on an island with a sandy beach and a national lunch. We liked! We went to the Old Town of Dubrovnik on our own, we did not take a tour. We got on bus number 6 near the President Hotel, and after 15 minutes. have been to the old city. Yes, I almost forgot to write. Be sure to take a walk along the coast of Babin Kuk opposite from Argosi. Pass by the President Hotel, then the Neptun Hotel, and there is a path down to the sea, go down and walk along the sea. The beauty there is amazing! you will walk, then go out onto the pedestrian street and after passing it you will find yourself next to the OPTbank bank (you can exchange currency) and at the bus stop number 6. This is the third stop from the Argosy hotel towards the old city. In total, this walk at a leisurely pace will take you 30-40 minutes. Now about nutrition. One of the evenings, I decided to count how many 2nd course options were offered and counted 7: stewed chicken with gravy, Pork ribs, beef tongue in tomato cream sauce, baked beef, lamb (very tasty), grilled fish, squid with octopuses. Judge for yourself, in my opinion for every taste. About salads and not to mention their choice was also decent. The only thing that they do not know how to cook in this hotel is desserts (cakes and cakes), they are terrible, tasteless. But for me it was +, because the blow to the figure was already inflicted. But the lack of delicious cakes replaced the presence of 5 types of different ice cream. All drinks for dinner are paid, we took a bottle of water every evening for a child (10 kunas), for adults a glass of wine price range (20-60 kunas per glass), beer, in my opinion, 25 kunas a glass. The main points of the rest seem to have been illuminated, there will be questions, write
