Rested with my wife and two daughters 2 and 7 years old. "Aphrodite" because I like the bungalow type of hotels and there is a family room. About the holiday: In general, I agree with the previous review. The hotel is after renovation, everything is clean, the architecture of developed socialism. Pros: not a bad hotel, nature and cities are really beautiful, there is no language barrier. Pleasant staff - the reception helped a lot on various issues, the gardener brought freshly picked figs to the children a couple of times. Cons: poor cleaning of the rooms, dust was not removed at all under the shovels and on the balconies, glass and mirrors were not wiped, although the cleaners go equipped. Never added consumables in the bathroom (except for paper). Strained that all drinks at dinner for a separate and high fee. Ordinary packaged tea 70 rub. in terms of, for example. Only children swam in the pool 1 time, it smelled strongly of bleach. The playgrounds at the resort are very weak, the animation consisted of a children's disco - not a lot. The children arranged entertainment for themselves, since there were many Russians. The sea is dirty (pads, condoms, cigarette butts in the sea, cigarette butts and bits on the beach), the people are dark. The hedgehogs that they boast of as an indicator of the purity of the water, a couple of half-dead ones, I saw only at a depth, but slippers do not interfere, my legs hurt from unaccustomed to the stones. Interestingly, according to my observations, it is Croatians who are littering on the beach. Excursions arranged by themselves by hiring a car, were in Dubrovnik, Split, Sibenik, Makarska, at the waterfalls of Krka. By the way, a m and gasoline are very expensive. Each trip, approximately 300 km. I managed with gasoline 150-170 euros, and this is on a VW Polo, once I was fined 500 (! ) Kunas for belts. The road surface is cool, but you won’t exceed the speed much - the road is narrow, it winds a lot, the turns are closed. Freaky pass through the mountain Biokovo, very beautiful! It is not necessary to know the language, they were explained in Russian without any problems. A couple of memorized phrases in Croatian will not hurt, people are pleased! Summary - do not rest in August, the number of people discourages all positive emotions and everything is very expensive! We rest in August for the first (and last, I hope) time, perhaps in our beloved Greece at this time as well.
