Arena Hotel Holiday

Good location, not so crowded

The shower was broken and the room was not modern

Lovely place with great swimming pools for kids, not too crowded. Close to the beach and boardwalk. Food is delicious and staff is so professional and welcoming! Special kudos to Rosa ( bartender) and Milica, excellent customer service skills! ☺️We’ll definitely come back!

In general, Croatia is not a country - where you go to the beach. There is no sand and shoes are required for entering the sea or walking along the shore. Stones - everywhere. BUT if you are interested in traveling short distances and visiting incredibly beautiful small coastal towns and villages as well as inland - Croatia is wonderful. Venice is about 3 hours away by car and is a wonderful day trip destination.Pros: The hotel is in an excellent location for the so-called beach - as well as a starting point for excursions inland and along the coast of the peninsula. Hygiene is at a very high level. The food is extremely varied and excellently prepared - both breakfast and dinner. The beds and pillows are comfortable.

Cons:Air conditioners are very cheap and therefore VERY VERY NOISY - regardless of the air conditioner settings. It's hard to sleep with the air conditioner on. This is definitely a problem. In addition, there are no mosquito nets and even if you want to sleep with an open window, a different problem arises...

I loved the food. There were many different options each day, so there was never a worry that you couldn’t find something to eat. The faculty and staff was very nice and professional, kept the place very clean and comfortable. The pool and the outside area was also very nice.

Food, pool

Carpets in the hotel and room

The hotel looked friendly and clean, the bed was comfortable, the food choices were good, and there were plenty of options and the pool was nice.

Room doors didn't close properly, so there was light coming from the hallway, and it was quite noisy because of the same reason, shower was quite small so if you moved in it you would just turn it to hot/cold side or just shut it off completely, when coming back from outside the room smelled really bad(don't know if it's from the AC because it was being used before we left), AC remote was hard to operate(clicking on mode and selecting cool didn't work but just fan mode did, and then after leaving the AC on cool mode off it just turned itself on after 3 minutes)

Good food, accessible for disabled, seaside view, friendly staff, close to the sea, available parking.

Stuffy hallways, noisy AC in room, no free water during dinner, noisy outdoors, people parking cars in the way of wheelchair accommodations.

The food is absolutely top, five-star level. We got breakfast and dinner included from the start, and that was the right decision. The animators are great, my daughter spent all the time she could at the kids club, she liked it a lot there. Pool is okay. The sea is close, and the path to the beach is comfortable, with a lot of shadow. Although they say you cannot book a place at the parking lot, it is not a problem, as the space is ample, and you can also park under the trees (which I did all the time).

The rooms are somewhat lacking; I cannot say they were dirty as the cleaning was regular, yet there were permanent dirty spots on the floor carpet, it wasn't nice. The balcony was okay, but the room itself is not spacious at all, and if you need to do some work on a laptop, you need to go to an armchair in the hall - the table they have is tiny. No kettle. And while the food was really good, I was disappointed with the tea they offered - the cheapest Franck teas from Kaufland; like, I understand that Croatians do not generally drink tea, and so they do not care, but that shit is hardly drinkable, and I expected more for the big money I paid.

Breakfast and dinner excellent - a lot of choice, something for everyone. The room was super clean and with the great view at the surrounding area. Staff was nice and helpful.

The bed was too hard, I was constantly waking up because of pain. Second thing I really didn't like was the fact that my expensive bracelett dissapeared after the cleaning the second day. I should put it in a sef (which is in a room), but I trusted the stuff, so... :/ Third thing - there is an unwritten "rule", that the guests put their towels at the sunchairs by the pool first thing in the morning, which, I believe, should be forbidden. Afterwards, they come to the pool at the late afternoon, and think, that the sunchairs are their.. I had problems to find any free sunchairs, so eventually I had enough and went to swim in the sea.

Very good selection of the local food.Nice sea-view from the room.Very pleasant animation team.Close to the sand beach.

The carpet in the room was a bit dated.We could smell cigarettes smoke in the bathroom, probably from other rooms.

Great location close to the beach, free parking. Breakfast, friendly staff, nice swimming pool with salt water. In general we were surprised with quality vers. price.

The beds were not comfortable.

5 stars for a 3Star hotel: not luxury(only 3stars hotel),but very clean,friendly personel and always ready to help you.Balcanik food you can't complain about(delicious)...not far from beach+swimpool right there- very clean...5 minutes walk from local shops and attractions park. Thank you all.

Staff were helpful. Location is nice. Breakfast is OK.

I was expecting more for the money regarding to the room condition.Room and toilet was outdated, carpet full of stains.

The room was great, comfy bed, good shower, breakfast was lovely

good food, very near beach, near town. Good swimming pool

It was nice and the staff was nice Good breakfast buffet

Very old and too expensive for the room size !!! Only one small pool !

Ideal position: directly on the bay of Medulin. And walking distance to the seaside area where bars and restaurants are located

The first night I was welcomed in the room by a cockroach, then tomorrow morning I asked for the new room I got one but it was so dirty I was sick to my stomach, at the end of stay thy charged the full amount for the room. I have pics if you what me to send them.

Breakfast was great, very kind staff.

Clean but outdated rooms

Staff is very friendly and accommodating. The restaurant and lobby area are pleasantly renovated and the pool chairs and towels are nice. Walking distance to the beach is not too bad. Restaurant provides a varied offer of adequate quality food.

The rooms are definitely dated, especially the bathrooms. The view from the pool to the hotel building is unfortunate and also the fact that there is no bar service at the pool, despite the high beverage prices. There are also inconsistencies in the pricing of the drinks between the restaurant and the bar. Overall the price we paid is too high for the overall quality of the accommodation, even if August.
