"Large, well-equipped, and not overcrowded campsite. The location is extraordinary, and every access to the sea is safe, with various useful supports to prevent slips and falls. All bathrooms are spotless at all hours. Also convenient for people with disabilities. The only major drawback is the astronomical prices at the on-site markets and various bars (for example, a 2-liter bottle of water costs €4, or coffees cost €2.50, or even €3.50 if you order a long one). To get around this, just take the car and go to a nearby supermarket. Other than that, everything is excellent."

"Making our debut in Croatia, our arrival at the Valamar Tamaris Resort began with a promising flourish. The entrance makes a solid first impression, complemented by a genuinely warm greeting at reception. Step through the spacious lobby and out onto the terrace, and you are met with an undeniably striking coastal panorama. Unfortunately, that initial gloss begins to fade once you settle in. Accommodations & Dining: Form Over Function The family double room is best described as functional—decidedly small and basic, though adequate if you plan to spend minimal time indoors. However, the true Achilles' heel of the resort is its main dining venue, the Mediterraneo Restaurant. While the buffet offers a decent variety, the cooking suffers from a heavy hand—rendering the meat options noticeably overcooked. Worse still is the restaurant’s chaotic logistics: * The Greeting Trap: Friendly smiles at the host stand give way to a chaotic free-for-all the moment you step inside. Unlike other resorts of a similar status that escort guests to open tables, here you are left to fend for yourself. * The Buffet Bottleneck: The serving area is hopelessly underdesigned for the sheer volume of guests. Trapped in a single, winding arc of a line, you are forced to shuffle past tray after tray of unwanted dishes just to reach the items you actually desire. * Self-Service Drinks: While draft options are self-serve, those hoping for proper table service or an curated wine list will be sorely disappointed. Poolside Dynamics: High Energy vs. Lost Tranquility The outdoor pool offerings feel undersized for a resort of this scale, and the sunbed situation requires careful navigation: * The Activity Pool: Lively and bustling, but sun loungers are snatched up almost instantly. * The Relax Pool: Nominally a serene sanctuary, complete with strict bans on inflatables and ball games. ＞ A Credit to Staff: Management deserves praise for strictly enforcing the "no reserving sunbeds" rule—a rarity in modern resorts. ＞ Regrettably, they fail to police the noise levels. By late afternoon, the Relax Pool inevitably suffers from the activity pool’s overspill. As an influx of young children migrates over, the tranquil atmosphere evaporates into elevated noise, shattering any illusion of a quiet retreat. The Verdict So Far The Valamar Tamaris Resort manages to deliver a pleasant stay on paper, but it falls short of true hospitality excellence. Between the chaotic dining infrastructure and misplaced pool dynamics, it remains a notch below expectations. Dispatches to follow as the stay continues."

"Nice vacation, lot of space in appartments. We stayed in apartments 4+2, clean, good. Kitchen with all kitchenware, but there is no plastic strainer for the clean dishes. We bought cheap in market for 3 EUR. There were enoung towels. It ix good place for trips arond, Trst is only 64 km away, Porec 12 km, Novigrad 7 km."

"We paid almost €800 for two nights in a premium mobile home. Unfortunately, I have to say that the Day of Prayer and Repentance was in no way justified. Besides the fact that it was extremely crowded and the pool was actually too small for the number of guests (though perhaps that's to be expected in peak season), the mobile home was very run-down and unclean. There were several cobwebs on the ceiling, many areas were very worn, the air conditioning smelled musty, and the sofa was extremely tattered. When we arrived, there were no towels. They were brought to us after we asked. The opening hours of the "supermarket" (a slight exaggeration) are very short, and the surrounding area isn't particularly attractive either. (Which isn't the park's fault.) It's also a shame that some booking portals give the impression, based on the photos, that you have a private pool in addition to your own whirlpool. This is not the case with the premium mobile homes. We are certainly willing to pay for good accommodation, but in this case, the price is nowhere near the "premium" standard."

"Modern, comfortable villa, beautiful surroundings. Opposite construction work did not bother us at all. We felt very comfortable."
