We stayed at the Hotel Flamingo for a week in early October in a superior Sea View Room which is situated above the main building with a view over the swimming Pool and with a good sea view. The room is of reasonable size and comprises a balcony with table and chairs, twin beds placed together, bedside cabinets with lighting, dressing table with drawers / large desk with mirror, chair, easy chair, flat screen TV, small fridge - mini bar, kettle, Large wardrobe with hangers and 4 drawers, room safe, bathroom with large walk in shower, WC, Bidet, basin plus complimentary toiletries (no bath). Plenty of storage space. Free WIFI. The room and the whole hotel were spotlessly clean and well maintained. The grounds are very pleasant with plenty of greenery and a large attractive swimming pool again kept very clean. Free sunbeds and sunshades around the pool. The Hotel has its own beach marked out with netting. The beach is sandy, but with a very stony area as you enter the sea before sand again, but if swimming you should have footwear to get over the stones. There are nice walks in both directions along the beach and in surrounding area. This is quite an underdeveloped area with a few medium sized hotels well spread out and a couple of up market camp sites set amongst pine trees. Not busy in the area at the time of our stay. There is a large car park and a bus stop just outside the hotel entrance - bus running about every 90 minutes to Pula in one direction and Santa Margareta in the other. The food was of good quality at breakfast and in the evening on Half Board basis. Buffet in the morning and waiter service in the evening. However the actual service was not good - not through lack of effort, but appeared to be short of waiting staff - quite slow in the evening on occasions and replenishment of the buffet salad bar in the evening and with items at breakfast was slow. On the subject of food there is a very good restaurant, Ortoristorante, a couple of hundred yards down the narrow road from Hotel which is very good indeed - we had an al fresco meal there which was really excellent in the gardens. There is a very interesting large Roman Site at nearby Nora which is certainly worth a visit. Our stay cost 272 Euros per night (about £240) Half Board which is on the high side I think in comparison. However we enjoyed our stay - previously stayed at this hotel 5 years ago and has probably improved a bit on then. There were some small aggravations: 1. Supposed to be dressing gown and slippers provided in room - not there and despite chasing only slippers arrived. 2. Supposed to have a free session at the Health Centre, but had closed on 15th September. 3. Supposed to have free paddle board Session, but not available. 4. Charged 3 Euros for each beach towel and 3 Euros again every time that you want to change it !! 5. There are two large bamboo covered areas on the beach with lots of deck chairs underneath which are free to use. However the actual sunbeds f
