Nice location and nice hotel. I would recommend especially for families with children.
I paid for 3 rooms and I discovered that the cheaper rooms had better bathrooms. I stayed in the room with full sea view and we had a bath instead of shower and there was an old bath/shower curtain. I wasn’t expecting something like this in a 5* hotel. The cheaper rooms with town view have very nice showers ( plus partial sea view). Another surprise was that we were allowed only one pool towel per person and that we needed a special talon to exchange for a towel. I would recommend to take your own towels if you are planning to visit this hotel. Otherwise fantastic hotel. Great service, Prosecco breakfast and huge choice of food and drinks. Local herbal brandy to help with digestion was a nice touch. Great value for money.

Very big hotel - and very touristic atmosphere. A lot of guests, quite noisy, extremely loud and noisy beach bar (completely off its otherwise family style vibe with lots of children), friendly staff (except for the DJ who was mistakenly trying to turn the beach into a nightclub at 2 pm to the extent where we simply had to leave the beach), very touristic buffet restaurant.
The hotel seems quite over-rated - should probably be 3.5-4.0 and certainly not 5.0 stars. Would not go again.

Exceptional hotel and team. We were travelling with youngsters through Croatia. The kids corner/play centre was wonderful. Kids were too spoilt. Huge huge games area, organised kids programmes, board games and library .
A big thankyou to the doing ladies Iva, Nika, and team. My young ladies were felt very welcomed because of your teams professionalism and kindness . Trully a magical week for our family. Wonderful food choices, location, pool and gym facilities. I will be returning.

Luxury family child friendly hotel, chic interior and lovely pool by the sea. The breakfast was excellent, even a glass of bubbly. We had a room with partial seaview, so it was on the first floor and looking into a ramp of some kind, so not the best view. The room was beautifully clean, and spacious. Bed mattress a little firm.
Markaska had beautiful beaches, Rocky rather than sandy, but the sea was gorgeous, lots of paddle boards, jet skis and watersports to entertain and the beaches exceptionally clean, the locals obviously take great pride in the area.
When we arrived at the weekend it was very busy with tourists, and full of families and small children. This includes the hotel, not a place to go if you are looking for peace and quiet, it is definitely a more family oriented hotel and location. With kids club, noisy aqua aerobics classes in the pool and the Heath and wellness centre still had lots of little kids running around in the pool, sauna and whirlpool. Staff did their best to enforce rules but parents weren’t really bothered!
On the whole it was a great stay, as a couple with no kids we just had to find our quiet spot and luckily opted for BB only so escaped in the evenings. Big thank you to the staff though, they were great and obviously work really hard.

Me and My girlfriend Stayed at the hotel for a week. Nice service, food and drinks. The hotel was beautiful with clean and modern rooms. But with that said, it felt like it was a 5 star paradise for children who occupied the adult pool. Even though there were two pools for kids. You could not swim without being jumped into, had to avoid inflatable bathing animals and beds etc. The kids screamed all the time which made it impossible for us to have a relaxing time. 5/7 days it was impossible to get a decent sunbed. I could already see from the gym how people reserved all the good spots from 7.30 in the morning. Really bad standard for a 5 star hotel who proclaims it’s forbidden and towels being unused for 30 minutes will be removed. You would think this was not necessary at a 5 star hotel. Where you should be able to have a sunbed without a fuss.
I think the problem with this hotel is that the pool is too small for the amount of people who stay here. The area around the pool gets packed same goes for the beach.
The spa area is Nice, but also that area turns into a children’s playground with ball playing around the pool. Not very relaxing.
However the service is flawless. The staff was always available, very friendly and went above and beyond to accommodate us
The rooftop bar is amazing, the staff is great and the cocktail is amazing.

This is not by any standard a 5 star hotel. They sure think it is but nothing is 5 star about this hotel except the valet service and the kind people in the reception. Sure the hotel looks beautiful but the service by the pool/beach is very low standard and there’s kids everywhere, and I mean ev-ery-where. It resembles disneyland more than a hotel at times. You want a nice sunbed? Pay too dollar extra. You want a normal sunbed? Get up early and throw your towel on one like the other guests because otherwise you’re left without one. Again, If you want a relaxing 5 star holiday, stay far away. Value for money is 0/5

Great overall family hotel. Certainly family hotel rather than couples but I imagine out of school holidays the hotel would suit everyone
Half board was really good and room with sea view is really the best option
Location is good, slightly away from town and a easy walk in
Really busy during our stay so hotel does feel very busy around the pool and beach
Great roof top bar
Special shout out to Klara and Petra who were fabulous in the restaurant

We love this hotel and the Pool is great and the gameroom was amazing for my kids.The food is delicious and the staff is exellent exept the check-in was not nice. The lady that checked us in was rude and most likely assumed that we didn’t belong to a 5 star hotel as we arrived in an old car from Bosnia. She kept telling me that my room I chose was just basic and she made me feel terrible about not adding my son to the reservation. She made me pay for an 8 year old almost $300 extra for 3 nights. She kept indicating that the price of the room is per person. We love this hotel and my kids especially and our stay would have been wonderful all around had it not been for our disappointing check in experience.

Great place for kids however front desk should be more welcoming and professional. Food was ok.
