Aminess Vival Lišanj Family Hotel

We stayed at the hotel for 7 days with a baby aged 1 year and 10 months. The hotel is nice and tidy, the balls at the entrance are a real treat for children. The rooms are spacious and tidy, the pools are clean and there are enough sun loungers. The beach is close. The bed is extremely comfortable and the view is beautiful. The food is plentiful (we had all inclusive light, which includes food and drinks, wine and beer during meals) and very tasty, but after a few days you realize that the same dishes are repeated (the last two days there was no variety of fruit, for example, there were no bananas). A very large number of high chairs for small children. Everyone is very kind, the hotel is ideal for slightly older children, the animators are excellent. However, the cleanliness of the room is by no means at the level of a 4-star hotel. Our room was cleaned every other day, we replaced the beach towels once after I asked the gentlemen in the hallway. Cleaning the room was limited to making the bed, dirty dishes, etc. They did not touch or clean the toilet. The balcony was cleaned once in 7 days. The child pulled dust and dirt out of the holes. Also, the hotel is by no means suitable for baby strollers. to get to any pool you have to go down stairs, narrow metal stairs, which are not even suitable if you are carrying a baby, let alone for a stroller (p.s. you can go through the restaurant and exit the restaurant, go down to the beach and reach the pool with only one small step). around the pool is quite untidy, a lot of dirt and garbage that doesn't get out of the way, so it becomes slippery and gets stuck in children's hands. The sunbeds on the beach are paid for by hotel guests, so they are empty. entering the sea is also unsuitable for children, because the steps are not cleaned of grass and algae, so they are very slippery. The restaurant lacks dishes for children, considering that it is a children's hotel, it would be fine if there were the same. All in all, the hotel may deserve a 4-star rating, but not a family hotel.

On our travels to Italy we decided to divert for a few days and take a short holiday in Croatia. We found this hotel as we were searching for reservations while still in the US. Overall it was a very good stay. Hotel was clean and all meals were included. While the meals were adequate we ventured out into town for dinner each night. One great place was San Mariano. It was a short walk along the beach. It's an outdoor restaurant with great food and a great view. Staff was very friendly but we want to give huge shoutouts to Randy as he took care of us at the beach and Petar at the pool bar. He was friendly and helpful. This hotel is far way from home for us but we felt comfortable and welcomed. Thank you for a memorable stay. Our daughter cried on our last night because she didn’t want to leave.
