Hotel Mediteran Plava Laguna

This was our second time at Hotel Mediteran, so that means we love this hotel! The beach is really close, Sea water nice and clean. I love the cared park, gardeners work every day on the hotel's park, plants. There are huge pines which provide shadow against direct sunlight. I love the Hotel's location. Food is perfectly good, so many possibility from which to choose, and nice taste. The Staff really friendly, everyone does their job conscientiously. Pools are filled with salt water. Porec's old town is from a nice coastwise walk, but you can travel with DOTTO (little train) even, which stop in front of the hotel. Every week there is a Gala dinner. So everything was as good as last time!

I love this place... No need to say anything bad.

Everything was very good: 1) the location - just 2 minutes walk from the sea where there are lots of attractions; and ca. 20 mins walk from Porec by beautiful promenade 2) the hotel itself: very spacious, clean, very nice and fantastic very clean swimming pools (1 quite big and 2 smaller for chill or for children) + nice chill out area with hammocks; entertainment programme also ok - nice evening music which was very appreciated 3) food: large variety with good choice of fish, meat and fruit every day; it was also very nice from the hotel that despite the fact the dinner according to the time schedule was supposed to start at 18:30 we could enter the dining area even 10-15mins earlier 4) staff: in the reception very nice people, real professionals. We were offered the upgraded room for the same price with pool view - many thanks for this. Unfortunately, the staff in the dining area is not so professional - it would be good if they could be more happy and pleasant.

Unfortunately, the staff in the dining area is not so professional - it would be good if they could be more happy and pleasant. And the organization in the dining room could be better not to queue that much;

Food was very good and there was enough variety every day. Hotel was very clean, has lot's of space inside for the rainy days. Hotel bar/restaurant was affordable (I remember that a burger with fries, coca cola and a cappuccino was 13€). Daily entertainment for kids. Location was perfect!

Nothing really major, but I'd say that the quality of the fountain drinks was a bit underwhelming. Another thing is that if you have a child and need to use stroller (or for whatever reason using the stairs is a problem) - beware! To get to the lobby from outside, you need to use stairs. To get from the lobby to the elevators (!), you need to use stairs... etc. etc. It's something you probably don't even notice but with a kid in the stroller it gets annoying.

Hotel is very nice considering it is a 3* hotel, we were surprised in a good way. Dinner and breakfast were very tasty and there was variety of meals to choose, you were always able to find something what you like. The area is beautiful for a morning jog or walk, close to the beach, nice park and promenade along the beach. Most of the beach is made on concrete but you were also able to find spots with small stones / gravel and nice clean water. There was salty water in the pools which is amazing. But the pool was not heated, it was very cold. But at least not many people were swimming in the cold water so in the end it is a plus :)

Long queues in the restaurant. Some people are waiting like 30 minutes before starting dinner in the reception/lobby area, waiting for dinner to start - a little weird. Maybe starting dinner 30 minutes earlier could help when the hotel is completely full, which was the case, to avoid long queues. Last available room was economy room for 2 adults. I slept there just with my baby so it was sufficient but the bed for 2 adults must be too small indeed. No fridge in the room. Pool area was beautiful, pool with salty water but not heated as mentioned in the description. Water in the baby pool was too cold for babies.

We loved the pool, the view, the helpful staff, the walk into Porec, the tourist train that stopped outside the hotel, the breakfast, the dinner; in short pretty much everything was good. The staff are so hardworking, and yet helpful and polite - the whole place was gleaming clean too. Many years ago we stayed at this hotel, and loved it then - I think it is even better now!

It would be helpful to guests to have a little information sheet in the room explaining how things work, for example, how do you go about getting towels for the pool - do you have to pay for them or are they free? We noticed there was some kind of card system where you handed over a card and you got towels, but there was nothing explaining the system. This is not a complaint - we could have asked Reception - but a suggestion.

Excellent location with nice woods, great beach spots nearby and a 20-minute walk to the city of Porec. Room was clean (the towels were changed every day) and comfy. Friendly and helpful staff.

Sometimes the entertaining programs in the evening were a bit too loud, but they end at 23:00. Some of the guests criticize the food and I admit it can be improved, but it's similar to most of the all-you-can eat restaurants at the same level hotels. There should've been more vegetables and tastier dishes sometimes, but you can always find something you like, specially if you love sea fish (for hardcore vegans it can be hard).

Fantastic stay, marvelous place with beautiful garden area around hotel, great pool, calm very relaxing atmosphere. Great stuff, clean, specious lobby and dining area with summer terrace. Recommanding deep muscle oil massage at Flavia (therapist) in the hotel. Everything was great beyond our expectations. We payed extra for refrigerator end strongbox , so we felt like in the four star hotel.

Maybe breakfast was modest, but dont forget this is a 3star hotel only which in reality looks end feels like 4star hotel, so somewhere they had to cut the budget, but dinner was delicious.

there was a problem with the AC, you couldn’t set the temperature properly. I talked at the reception at the first night and the answer was that somebody will come to check it in the morning but nobody came. sometimes it worked sometimes it didn’t (one time the AC thermostat said that it can’t open the AC because in the room was already 17 degrees- that wasn’t the case because outside there were 24 degrees and it was definitely hotter inside) the room could have been cleaned more- the carpet was really stained and the bathroom, especially the shower had a lot of dirt in the grounds

Facilities and activities, playgroubds in the area, perfect for children. pools were great however watch out for the definition of ”heated” still very chilly during May.

Some of the staff during checkin left me feeling they were doing me favours anwsering questions etc (A younger lady). While others at the reception were great (Some young fellows). So mixed bag. Also - on booking it said that it was possible to get an included free baby cot. however at checkin they said they did not have one at all in the facility. We had to rent one. Then after renting, one of the other receptionist said they do have a cot for a toddler. So be aware if u are traveling without a bed for your toddler.

Staff was a great;from the receptions desk to the service during the breakfast and dinner, excellence!

I realy like my stay in the hotel and my familly as well. I have an comment related to the behaviour of the some guests on the swiming pool. Some of them leave they staff early monrning and ocupaid the space near the pool but come at the pool very late so there was no space for the other guests who are acualy at the pool. Might be that hotel management can do something to forbid that or make some way of control to avoid that situation.
