Hotels near beach Bosuja, Porec

My sister got married in Croatia last August and myself and my family and many of the other wedding guests stayed in this hotel. We had an amazing time here!! The views were great, the food was great but the highlight of my stay had to do with the ever so friendly staff. To name a few, in the dinning area, Emilio, Alexandra, their colleague from Bosnia I forgot his name. Jovana and from front desk, Maria helped me a lot with organising appointments and so on. And the night time front desk staff, I believe he's from Serbia, he was very friendly and helpful too. I wish to see them all next time I visit. I regret that I am leaving this review a year late but I have not forgotten all the lovely smiles and the great service in the 9 days I stayed at your hotel. Hope you are all doing well!!! :) Lisa

The hotel is a little gem. Fabulous location on the Porec waterfront, well appointed and comfortable rooms, a genuinely world class breakfast /brunch offer and lovely helpful staff. We arrived mid-day and were quickly taken yo our room (301 , superior sea view). The room was not the largest in the hotel but for us was great as it was very quiet and peaceful with spectacular views over the harbour and nearby island. We did hear other guests saying their rooms were a little noisy, we think on 1st floor above the bar, but as I said, upper floors were peaceful. You could if you were so inclined eat so much during the longest breakfast /brunch that you will not eat again that day and just take the complementary boat to the hotels island and beaches to rest...... but then you would miss out on the champagne and canapes provided between 5 pm and 6 pm daily. This hotel likes to feed you!! Fabulous hotel run by fabulous people. will return again soon.

We have been going to hotel Molindrio for 10 years with my parents and sister and are club members. Every year has been a great experience but that all changed this year. From the beginning the reception has told us every year that we are free to use the beach at hotel Parentium and we are also able to use the white chairs to lie down. We have been doing this ever since. This year we were approached by life guards at the beach asking us why we were using the white chairs if we are not guests of hotel Parentium, because this was not allowed. We explained that we have been doing this for years and had been told by the reception that this was not a problem because we were guests at the sister hotel Molindrio. When we made the reception aware of this altercation with the life guards they first claimed that these chairs were never offerd to us by the reception and that we were lucky that we had not been caught earlier for using these chairs ( which made us feel absolutely horrible, we just did what the reception has told us for years that we could do ), after we explained that we are not lying and have been guest for 10 years and have always been using these chairs they switched up the story and told us that there is a new management and there are new rules so we cannot use these chairs at the beach anymore ( so now we are not liars but the new director has given these orders, reception could have just told us this from the start instead of making us look like liars ). So we had to lie down on the concrete. My dad has a bad back and instead if a relaxing vacation his back got even worse from lying on the hard concrete with just a towel. Absolutely disgraceful! Furthermore the food this year was of very poor quality. The fruit they served was either rotten or without taste, which left us really feeling disappointed especially because we have been coming here for years and have always been so satisfied with the food. Needless to say we will not be coming back anymore after being treated this way. We are very disappointed.

A few people complain about the rooms/showers being small. I had an economy room with french bed, park side for single use. I was actually quite pleased with it and thought there was plenty of room. No balcony but I knew that when booking. I thought the food in the evening buffet was exceptional with lots of choice and the added bonus of soft drinks, wine and beer. The breakfast offering was fine but could have been improved by having some of the fresh fruit that was available in the evening buffet. The decor in the hotel is perfectly acceptable and the swimming pool was fine. Not a lot of sunbeds for the size of the hotel but I never struggled to get one mid afternoon. Loved the location, it is about an hours walk around the bay and through pine trees to get to Porec with fantastic views all the way round. If you don’t want to walk both ways (or either way) there is a small land train that costs €4 each way. I paid around €60 per night half board in the second week in June which I thought was very good value for a single traveller. Don’t bother with packages, get yourself a cheap Ryanair flight into Pula, hire a car and book a hotel directly on the Plava Laguna website. I stayed a few nights in Umag and then drove down the coast to Zelena Laguna to spend the last few nights at the Plavi.

We visited as a family of five in Aug 2023 for a week. Initial impressions were great, a bag meal on arrival having missed dinner due to our flight. Day one, woke up early, lovely view from our apartment and great weather, food was ok and lots of choices for breakfast. We ate at the pool bar first day which was nice to snack on. The hotel also provides Pizza at 5pm. The three teenagers enjoyed the water sports provided, however I was a little concerned not life jackets were provided. A duo played a nice set in the evening for entertainment. The next three days we had terrible weather, this made us start to look us look at the facilities in the hotel. Although refurbished, the rooms are small, three persons in deluxe room consists of a small camp bed was not ideal. Rooms were cleaned daily, however we were left without loo roll on two days. The lighting in the corridor is not safe, having activated after you walked down the stairs from the second floor. The most shocking thing is the smell from the communal toilets, which clearly haven’t been cleaned in weeks, also walking passed the gents my wife could see men doing a number one which was unpleasant. Massive lack of evening entertainment during the rest of the week, mediocre food, lack of atmosphere and a struggle to find anything to do. The pool table is awful and needs replacing, did not work. Mini club staff were sat on their phones paying no intention to anything. The all inclusive beer an d wine is poor quality and only local top shelf is served after 9pm. The lack of being able to pay for premium drinks on card was also disappointing. I would not recommend this hotel to anyone traveling to Croatia unless you want to go to bed at 9pm

Dinner is good, breakfast is good, the room is clean enough, the beach behind the hotel is very comfortable, the main town of Rovinj is too beautiful, you can consider staying here for two consecutive nights, the parking is free, you need to walk for 5 minutes, suitable for children, floor The pool and the outdoor pool are very good, it is recommended to go
