    The apartment was huge and well worth the price. The amenities were amazing. Access to the ferry to take you across to the island to get to the private hotel beaches that were lovely. If I knew how good the hotel was here we would have stayed longer in Porec than other places we had stayed prior. If you go to Porec, stay here, you will not regret it.

    We stayed in an apartement near the main hotel building and it had everything we needed - comfortable beds, a kitchen, great location in the centre. We really appreciated free access to beautiful hotel beaches on nearby island.

    The apartment is separate from the actual hotel and is directly above the courtyard of a pub that has live music till late. The windows do not block the sound at all. If you are concerned about noise, this apartment is not right for you.

    The apartment was spacious and perfect for a family. The location was close to the bus and ferry terminal.

    Incredible stay in beautiful hotel, with access to an island resort and private beaches!

    Nothing, we loved everything!

    We absolutely loved our room, location and the amazing breakfast (and brunch) included in the price of the stay. We booked a stunning Sea view room with a balcony in the main Valamar Riviera Hotel in Porec and it was incredible. The staff are so helpful and warm, in particular Dajana helped us at the front-desk to find a vineyard to visit and we had such a good visit as a result. We were also amazed that staying in the hotel in Porec meant you could get a free boat across to use the private beaches and resort pool on the island opposite called Sveti Nikola - probably one of the nicest hotels we've stayed in. Incredibly good value for money and just a lovely, friendly place to stay.

    No elevator and three very steep stairs. The bathroom was very small and a shower always flooded the whole bathroom. The apartement is quite dark as the windows face another wall. On several nights, there was loud music coming from the bar below the windows till about 12 PM. This is not the fault of the hotel, but the price of they stay was too high for that.

    Our first stay in an apartement from the hotel. We enjoyed our stay. Nicely furnished room and kitchen. Cleaning when required. The staff was very friendly. As always, the beach on Sveti Nikola was fabulous.

    The stairs were a bit full-on and the bathroom was a bit rough around the edges

    We stayed in the apartment which was about 150 yards from the main hotel. It was up three flights of stairs but was worth it - nice double room, and then a kitchen/lounger with two sofa beds. It was all well maintained and tidy. You get access to the main hotel facilities on a nearby island which was fantastic - including a pool and waterslides.

    It wasn’t really clear that we weren’t in the main hotel which was fine but the apartment we were in was very noisy in the early mornings from banging upstairs

    Great location, fantastic to have free boat trip to the island and use of the sister hotel with swimming pool, beach and water inflatables, and can charge food and drink back to your hotel bill. Plenty of restaurants and live music within 2 minutes walk.

    The apartment was pretty basic and the shower small with no hot water. The weather was hot while we were traveling (mid - late July) - so a cold shower was manageable.

    The location right on the main square, a half block from the water and ferry terminal was amazing! The staff was very friendly and helpful and access to Sveti Nikola was definitely an added bonus! We only booked 1 night when we came in late on the ferry but the hotel held our luggage free of charge the entire next day after we checked out so that we could explore Porec before leaving. The free ferry and towel service at the resort and beaches of Sveti Nikola was awesome - we had a great beach day with access to all the convenient facilities!
