    I loved the clean rooms, friendly staff, the location, free parking, balcony views, beach, pool, and bars and restaurants were grest

    The price went up a lot from last year.

    10SašaPosted on: 7-18-2025

    Hotel location is excellent, a lot of room on nice beaches. Nice looking and renovated rooms and looby. We had breakfast and dinner included,food was good, plenty, only minus is drinks are not included for dinner, you have to pay for a bottle of water ( info we learned on arrival). Everything else was great!

    Paying for water for dinner when we booked half board ( no information about that prayer of arrival)

    10DraganaPosted on: 7-4-2025

    Great place for families! I loved the hotel and everything it has to offer! Great location, the food was varied and awesome each day :)Both indoor and outdoor pools are great, the beach is nice at a few places. We especially loved the activities for kids that were well organized and fun!

    Nothing comes to mind really..The only thing I'd like to see is less concrete beaches :)

    10DarrellPosted on: 7-1-2025

    Everything and everyone. Very clean. Walking distance to the sea front was short with plenty of activities along the way. Suitable for children of all ages.

    There were dirt roads leading to the property due to some construction in the residential areas. Not an issue if you travel by taxi.

    9LindaPosted on: 6-20-2025

    Great breakfast

    I had view of outbuilding. Area carpets were dirty. Temperature controled by hotel: no chance for individual needs.

    5SaraPosted on: 5-2-2025

    The lobby has been nicely renovated and offers a pleasant atmosphere for socializing. There’s sometimes evening entertainment, which adds a nice touch to the stay. Parking is free but often full.

    The room we got did not match the photos on Booking – it was much smaller, cramped, without the cabinets shown, and with a completely different layout. It was also located next to a storage area, which caused a lot of noise from early morning, and the hallways were also quite loud. From what we saw, the other rooms looked much better, so we believe the price for our room should have been adjusted accordingly. I went to ask at the reception, and they said they would call me back, but I ended up having to go back several times myself, as I received no information from them. The staff showed no interest or willingness to resolve the issue. The fridge in the room was extremely loud, so we had to turn it off at night, and the toilet made noise throughout the night. Dinner was average, nothing special. Overall, we were disappointed given the quality of the room and the service.

    Very nice and quiet place în April. Everything was excepțional. Thank you all. Especially the receptionist, Who Speak little romanian.

    10Dave S.Posted on: 3-4-2025

    Great location overlooking the Adriatic Sea. Lots of amenities to keep you busy. Great for entertaining the family. The breakfast buffet was amazingly presented and delicious.

    We stayed towards the end of September and our room was a bit warm. The AC did not work because they turn off the system in September. So we opened the windows as it was cool outside but there are no screens. We had to contend with some bugs.

    9Dave S.Posted on: 3-4-2025

    facility was in an excellent location on the sea, we had the breakfast include in our stay which was very good. We did not use the beach because we were staying in the early part of the season.

    8ZeljkoPosted on: 10-30-2024

    We were upgraded to premium room with sea view.Refurbished rooms, very good bteakfest.Good Location

    Very noisy lobby

    9HansPosted on: 10-27-2024

    Enjoyed our stay at Hotell Pinija.We were upgraded to a family sized room. It came with a balcony that was facing booth sea- and the pool-area. Clean and very well disposed room.There were two bathrobes for our use and that was appreciated for pool and beach tour activities. For breakfast and dinner normal decent dress code was a house-rule. We like that and it fits our age and moral standard.All restaurants and bars are associated with the hotel so you can pay by signing with your room-number. Scary checkout? after spending a few days in the area. No not really even if prices always is matter for debate. We found them reasonable.A convenient store within the area with normal necessities plus snacks, drinks and sweets. Just outside we also found a small tourist store with some nice locally designed bags, plus the normal towels, bathing shoes and souvenirs……Breakfast was great with more or less everything you can think of and then a huge variety beyond that. For dinner we went to the Lantern restaurant. So no info on the buffé styled dinner in the main building. Lantern restaurant is maybe no for this review, but but it was great both when it came to food and for the environment/view.We went to Pinija at the end of main-seasons and yet found all personal very friendly, helpful and smiling. We felt welcomed and got lots of interesting advices, info on surroundings and on Croatia. The personal definitely walked and extra mile for us.We enjoyed our stay very much and look forward to coming back

    For improvement: I’m a picky bread-enthusiast so some more rye styled buns would have been appreciated. Humble though I’m not familiar with Croatian standard wrt bread.

    The reception lady is very kind, smart and helpful. We had a problem with our car during our stay and she was very supportive and the whole stuff.

    8AndreeaPosted on: 9-18-2024

    The room was clean except some underwear behind the curtains from a former guest but besides that very spacious with well working air conditioner. The breakfast and the spa area was nice, also good massages for both of us. Also, there was a welcome plate when we arrived. A late check out was possible after asking. There also is live music downstairs twice a week.

    I booked 3 hours spa for Sunday (our checkout day) before we even checked in via mail and they told us it’s fine. On Sunday then we wanted to visit the spa and they said it’s not possible anymore. That was a bummer because we packed everything to stay in the spa before our flight, even got bathing robes from the reception standing there in our swimming clothes and even asked on Saturday in advance if we can use the spa on Sunday. Besides that nice hotel and rooms, but be cautious on your checkout day. Also, the spa can be overcrowded a bit. We were counting 21 people at a point for a whirlpool for 4, one sauna and one steam bath. That’s a bit much as people tend to not regard capacity restrictions.

    8JožicaPosted on: 9-13-2024

    Perfect location, few steps from hotel and you are in the sea :)

    In restaurant staff could show some more cheerfulness. All the time sad face is not really good in front of the guests.

    10KornelPosted on: 9-8-2024

    It was clean and calm sorrounding.

    It wasn’t warm water during the day. We couldn’t shower the baby and it was little uncomfortable situations.

    10SanelaPosted on: 9-3-2024

    Everything! I have no words!! The hotel was beautiful, very clean. The staff was so friendly and helpful.

    8JuliePosted on: 8-31-2024

    The location was just great. There are beautiful trees to sit under right next to the beautiful swimming area on great chairs and under umbrellas. This is a popular hotel for families from all over the area to come and have a family holiday. I liked that as it reminded me that kids and families are the same all over the world just wanting a happy peaceful loving family life. The spa was fantastic and I indulged with the best massages I have had for a long while, even helping my back which was not in great shape.

    It was not a dislike but what I would have liked was another evening place to eat - I did visit the restaurant on the ocean fron every night (3) as the main dining area is really a buffet for families. There was limited choice at the restaurant which needed a bit more care even though I had a great server for 2 out of three nights. Ice cream and coffee areas are really great and made up for evening choice!
