    Reservation changes via Booking.com were not properly registered, but Hotel Vali made things right. Suggest a smaller car as parking can be a challenge.

    Exceptional location with clean facilities, great breakfast and extremely helpful staff. Staff was on hand to accommodate our late arrival. Views from balcony of the Adriatic and the promenade by the hotel were 2nd to none. The private beach was a nice touch. Located away from the mega-tourist places but close enough to walk to them.

    The thin walls…I Wish I can give 10/10. Because everything was really super. The crew, the location, the cleans, everything was really super. BUT! I have to write down. We couldnt rest well because at midnights we listened the ‘neighbours’ rest room behaviors ‘till morning. Unfortunately the sound of the other restrooms(dont know where) were really annoying.

    Location and the beach

    The only thing I didn't like people smoking while I was having breakfast and smoking was allowed on balconies and on a beach. People on a beach tipping ash and leaving cigarettes buds there to dirty a see....and lots kids there as well as I hated being passive smoker....that was making me VERY UPSET... regards, Zdenka

    It is a very nice hotel with very kind employees. The breakfast is good,the room clean and it’s a very amazing view to the sea. We have free parking place and beach service (2 sunbeds with umbrella).The private beach is in front of the hotel and very clean and beautiful. We can leave the car at the parking place at early morning when we arrive and use the beach service before check in. Thank you very much! The neighborhood is very silent but a few minutes by walk is there many bars and restaurants.The centre is 35-40 minutes by walk.

    There was nothing to complain about, although nothing exceptional worth mentioning either. The room prices were rather steep.

    We spent a couple of nice days in the hotel and on its small beach. It is a tranquil place with adriatic holiday vibes.

    Our room was on the smaller side and the furniture is bit dated. We had wonderful view from our balcony, but during the day, sun was hitting it really hard, and unfortunatelly there wasn't any sunshade covering it, so balcony was basically unusable during the day.

    Hotel has small private baech, very close by. Sunbeds and towels are provided free of charge for the hotel guests. Wifi signal is strong in all areas of the hotel and on the beach.There are restaurants and cafes close by. Staff is really friendly and helpfull. Breakfast was ok.

    Location, location, location! Just a few steps down to the hotel beach. Sun beds, umbrellas and beach towels included. The breakfast offered a good selection of food, juices and different kind of coffees/teas. The stunning sea view from the breakfast terrace makes you feel happy for a good start into the day. Free parking either in front or in the backyard of the hotel!

    It's not a hotel. It's clearly old apartment building with HOTEL**** on it. We had room with "park view", which is apparently short for parking. Good thing about that side is there's no sun in the afternoon so it's not hot. Furnishings are very old and smell old. Carpets are as well old and greyish and don't seem to be properly cleaned for years. The beds are outrageously uncomfortable. The mattresses are worn, very soft and flat, they don't keep the shape. You can feel all the springs with your ribs. My husband developed backpain after this stay. Pillows are floppy-sloppy as well. Room description says there are socket close to the bed. True, but those are used for nightstand light. If you want to charge your phone, there's no socket close. The only one in our room was in the opposite corner. Another one we had from unplugging the TV. There are tea /coffee glasses, but no boiler. I had to ask reception directly if the water is drinking (it is btw). The attitude of management is below the lowest. The sewers clearly smelled very badly in the evening, the usual smell of stuck pipes (hair etc) that have to be cleaned with pipes gel. We went to the reception and the housemaster, as he calls himself, went with us and when asked, said with innocent eyes that he doesn't smell anything. That was clearly not true. Then he called another his colleague and she said that it's because sewers depends on the sea and when it's high tide, everything goes up the pipes and smell. So she already admitted that it smells, but started to invent ridiculous excuses with high/low tide, Bora wind and whatever else. Finally the housekeeper brought us Domestos and told us to use it carefully because it's very strong. I have paid for the stay and services so it's not my duty to use it carefully or in any other way. Water from the toilet splashes everywhere on the floor with the closed lid.

    Location - wonderful. First line with direct access to the sea. There was also small beach with sunbeds and umbrellas, that are free for hotel guests. Strong wifi, was connecting even on the beach. Approx 15 spots for cars.

    Unfortunately, neither the restaurant, nor the wellness waa working.

    The location was perfect, pretty close to the beach, only a few stairs (even my parents with some health issues could climb it several times a day). Cleaning was daily and decent.
