Maistra Select Amarin Resort

Check-in was quick, staff were friendly, nice environment

This is a wonderful place that is geared to families not really to couples.

Stayed here after a week of travel through Croatia and really appreciated the relaxing resort feel. We spent a day chilling between the pool and beach which offered views of Rovinj's old town. Just what the doctor ordered. The room really set the tone as it was spacious, newer and included a large patio.

Resort Amarin was a very pleasant place to stay. The unit was modern, spacious and clean. The walk to the beach and hotel bar and restaurant was short. The hotel breakfast buffet was fabulous. The resort is a couple of miles away from the Rovinj center, so you have to take a bus or boat to go to town. One thing we noticed about all the Croatian beach resorts is that they don't provide beach towels to guests - so either bring your towel or count on buying one in Croatia

The resort was beautiful, at first I thought it was too far away from town, but there's a ferry that goes over every hour for 25 kn.. Or a taxi is about 90 kn... Everything you need is at the resort, restaurants, lovely pools, beach, staff all friendly, views to old town are lovely.

The apartments were pretty good. The resort is huge with various facilities.

Good location and lovely restaurant with nice food and friendly staff. No water slide, although photos are on the website! Apartments were nice but set within a huge campsite. A member of reception staff we dealt with was unfriendly, unhelpful and didn't seem to have any care for people staying there.

The resort was nice. The animation staff was fantastic , the kids club was 5star. Bad point: no internet in the room and the room service was not great ( the cleaners did not clean at all)

Location was good, but we had several issues during our stay: errors in our booking (we booked a double and a triple room but the latter was not available when we arrived); a bird got trapped inside an air duct of the double room and it took the staff more than a day (and repeated complaints) to solve the issue; the triple room was plagued by ants; we found a dead bird at the front of the room one day. Breakfast was good, but they never changed the menu in the 5 days we were there (omelette, scrambled eggs, fried eggs, sausages, bacon, breads, cold cuts, fruit, cheese, pancakes, pastries, croissants, salad, orange juice, multi-fruit juice and apple juice). For some reason, the pools' water felt salty as if it had been taken straight from the ocean. The beach is nice, but full of rocks (bring appropriate footwear to avoid injuries to your feet) which can be slippery. Not too many options for food, but fortunately the resort is a short drive to Rovinj, where there are plenty of restaurants. Finally, we had a billing error upon check-out and the person in charge was more concerned about leaving at the end of her shift than solving the problem (at some point she just went away and was about to rush out the door, but we stopped her); in the end the issue was solved, but not without a big argument at the reception. There is free wifi but coverage is patchy.

Loved it
