Immediately upon arrival, we were greeted with the warmest of smiles. All of the hotel staff was absolutely friendly, kind and helpful. The room was clean and well maintained. The pool area was quiet and clean. And, there was a beach within short walking distance. We only stayed one night this time but would definitely stay here again. Thank you~
Nice room and Nice beds (four real beds, no bedsofa). Big beutiful bathroom but the door in to it was of glas and not possible to lock.
AC work well (but noisie).
Smal poolarea.
Bad breakfast, very little to choose from.
This property was very nice, right on the marina. The staff was super helpful and kind. We had a balcony that overlooked the pool. They cleaned every day and bed was nice. The only thing was the pillows which were a little too big for us. We had the breakfast and drank at the bar and both were delicious!
Great time here with plenty of beaches walking distance. And downtown was only a 40 min walk or cheap uber away.
Lovely property & location with a fantastic view of the Marina. Great room and all areas were very clean.
A major disappointment was Breakfast with limited choice of options unless you wanted salad! One cereal/granola available & the only warm breakfast item was fried eggs with nothing to accompany them. Asked the waitress for some bread to toast (on the toaster) and was told no. Asked the receptionist if bread could be made available for the next day but still no.
Would stay again but not worth the additional charge for breakfast.

Personable staff and beautiful room. Delicious breakfast! Highly recommend.
The staff was amazing! They were kind, genuinely friendly, and offered quality recommendations for sightseeing. The breakfast was fantastic and well worth the extra to enfold it into our reservations. Even in winter, this was a wonderful stay!
Lovely close in water views from the front building or third floor of the back building. Exceeds the standards for small Euro boutique hotel. Nice pool with great outlook and lots of sun. Helpful friendly staff and very nice rooms. Michelin restaurant on site with great food and wine list. Sea wall and nice beaches are close by. You will need a car, bus or Uber to get to Pula old town.
Nicely located on the lagoon. Providing beautiful sea or forest view from the room, lot of parking space. Roof top bar is providing comfortable seating and 360 view.
Incredible stay. We stayed for 5 nights as part of our honeymoon journey throughout Croatia. We were kindly upgraded to the "Fuoco 1" apartment and it was superb, immaculately clean, spacious with fantastic views of the marina from the private balcony.
The staff were so friendly and helpful when my wife required some medical attention for her infected insect bite they signposted us to the tourist hospital.
We dined at the on-site restaurant twice because the quality of food was so good and was reasonably priced. Aperol spritz only 8€ as an example.
Highly reccomended and we hope to visit again in future anniversaries.
The staff was top notch! Really great people! ..very friendly.. very helpful and attentive.
The room was clean and tidy.. with wooden floors (no carpets).. recently remodeled..
Excellent views of the marina! Nice pool area.. Nice open air lounge/bar area with a glorious marina atmosphere.
The room was beautiful and huge! We got a private terrace with lounge chairs and patio furniture. The pool was very small but good for a quick dip just to cool off. The included breakfast was lovely (use the little black espresso machine not the nespresso, it’s much yummier). There is a restaurant in the resort and the food is good, but expensive. The staff was lovely, the young man at the front desk offered to carry our luggage to our room for us.
Our room was immaculately clean, well equipped and comfortable. The Staff are very polite and accommodating, at breakfast they will replace items or provide options as per your request. The pool area is very quiet and relaxing, we spent many hours relaxing or reading by the pool, with towels provided. The location of the hotel is perfect for exploring Pula and Istria areas, you can walk to beaches within 10 minutes, and drive to all main destinations easily. It's a beautiful place and we'd visit again if staying in Pula. We extended our stay by three nights, and they kept us in the same room even when the price was increased, for that we extremely grateful and more than happy to recommend to others.
Excellent location, right on the edge of the marina
Waterfront apartment had a very spacious terrace and direct access to the pool via a small gate
Apartment was large with separate bedroom from the main living area and a well appointed bathroom
Ample wardrobe and storage space
Coffee machine and kettle provided - with some very nice cups to drink from
Small, but adequate fridge for wine and water - quality glassware
Amazing and quiet hotel, always space by the lovely, clean pool. Music a bit loud but only for part of the day with a pool bar.
Great views of marina and we were upgraded to a room with a balcony. Clean and comfy beds with excellent much-needed air con!
Really friendly and helpful staff, we arrived after reception closed due to delayed flight and had trouble locating room, but restaurant staff were really great and helped us! Also looked after our luggage so we could enjoy the morning before flight home.
Breakfast had a variety of things, fresher earlier on but still tasty. Quite hot at most tables though as no blinds for view of marina.
Nearby you can walk to beaches, beach bars, cafes, restaurants and snack bar over the road. Plus the amazing Aquarium!

This hotel is okay, but it’s far from being a “resort” as they claim. It could be rated as a 3-star hotel, but there are many things that don’t match the “resort” category.
The breakfast is just average. There aren’t many options, and none of them are healthy. There’s only one type of coffee, and there’s no fresh juice. It’s not a resort-style breakfast. We missed fresh fruits like pineapple, mango, watermelon, and papaya.
From a safety perspective, the entrance to the room’s building doesn’t have a reception. It’s just an elevator that you can freely access without a password or card access. The room is spacious, but the toilet has a giant transparent door that gives absolutely no privacy. I can’t imagine how young couples would feel here.
The mattress is too soft, and the pillows and towels are of good quality.
Perhaps the worst part is the feeling that the hotel is “doing a favor” by hosting you. We had this feeling many times during our stay. There are signs everywhere in the hotel and in our room telling us what not to do.
The location is ok, however you need a car to explore the beautiful region. Pula as a city is also pretty decent.
