The food was exceptional. Every meal I tried was delicious. There were plenty of options to choose from at both breakfast and dinner. There was also a wide variety of seafood available.

There are many birds in the area, making it difficult to find a sunbathing bed that isn't covered in bird droppings. During dinner, you have to purchase beverages, and the prices are outrageous—4.40€ for a small cola. It was hard to find clean tableware, every other fork or glass was dirty. Overall, I believe the hotel should focus more on cleanliness, as we also had ants in our room. Another minus is you have to pay for parking and for sunbathing beds on the beach.

Central, clean, modern, good food, nice pool area.

Too few sun beds, not a single day we managed to get a sun bed, that’s a pity for a 5* hotel. Children and adults that are not hotel guests come and enjoy pools, absolute no control of who is coming. No sun beds at the beach that belong to the hotel, strange for a 5* hotel. Manicure with nail polish-90 euros! And the worse thing, you cannot get a glass of water. I needed to pay 5 euros to take my meds. So a very good 4* hotel, but absolutely not a 5*.

Beautiful property on the seafront, two very clean pools with lovely sunloungers which you can order drinks to which we loved in the afternoon. Beach was clean and the water so clear some of the cleanest we have seen. We had lunch at the Pink Cricket restaurant every day and thought it was very reasonable and delicious. Sea kayaks and paddle boards for hire were very reasonably priced as well. We loved having an aperitif and watching the sunset at the pool bar before dinner. Staff were very friendly and service was good throughout (especially in the Pink Cricket), the waiters work incredibly long days but were always very attentive.

We did half board which was great value, the breakfast options were vast something for everyone. However, sometimes the evening food options were not quite up to the same standards as previous nights, 4 out of 7 nights we loved the food, the other 3 we were a little underwhelmed at the choices. The ice cream bar though was fantastic!

One of the best hotels I've ever stayed at. The view was AMAZING from our balcony. The TWO pools were also beautiful, and the beach was easily accessible. There were even robes to wear and sunloungers by the sea and by the pool. We used the sauna, while was great, and we ate the buffet dinner which was also great (though the desserts could have been better). Breakfast was also great. Staff were all friendly. Had a lovely stay!

We loved the swim up spa suite. Wished the water had been warmer, but that is a personal preference. Breakfast and dinner were excellent. The waiter at dinner could have been nicer and met the same level of service as most everyone else we encountered. Loved the lady at the omelette bar and juice bar. Super sweet. Reception was awesome! We would recommend this hotel without any hesitation. Room was spacious. Beds were comfortable. Thank you for an enjoyable time in Croatia.

What a beautiful place! The staff were pleasant, the facilities were impeccable, the location is wonderful (we walked both in the forest and into Tičepi).

Nicely located hotel at the very end of Tucepi beach surrounded by pine trees, clean rooms with beautiful view from balcony. Pools and closeness to the beach. Breakfast was good and warm dishes at dinner overall very tasty.

Dinner service in canteen (yes it feels like a canteen) is lacking quality. Sometimes difficult to find dressed tables and long wait to place beverage order which means you eat half the meal without drinks. Also at 9PM exactly starts the competition of making the most noise possible while clearing the buffet, crazy how much noise it’s possible to make while stacking plates, staff clearly want you out from there.

We chose to stay in the Jadran after 10 days of touring Croatia. It was pure heaven - the pools were spotless and the infinity one was to die for. The beach is only on the doorstep. Staff were available (never seen so many cleaners) but not intrusive. We chose half board and the food was really good - however, with buffet, you do get a bit tired of the same style of food. On saying that, our two teenagers ate all around them and really enjoyed the variety. The rooms were very spacious and we got upgraded to a lovely sea view. Fresk towels every day and a lovely comfortable bed. Blinds were blackout so great nights of sleep. There is some nice live music in the evening. There are a range of tours available and I did the skywalk jeep one - great fun and an excellent afternoon. Tucepi is a quiet area of Croatia which suited us. We didn't really try the local nightlife as we were on a deliberate relaxing period of the holiday but there were plenty of bars - we had some lovely cocktails in the evening. I don't think its a place for great nightlife though. Markeska seems to be much more lively. I am not sure I could do 2 weeks of doing very little but I highly recommend this hotel for a few days of luxurious relaxation.

Two small complaints - you had to pay for water at dinner - €4.50 per bottle !! We could easily drink 3 at one sitting. In 35+ degrees heat outside, this seems a ludicrous policy, especially as water is free at breakfast and from the bar during the day. I don't think this is good enough for a 5-star hotel. Similarly, there is no coffee/tea for after dinner to go with dessert. Again, this is supplied at breakfast. I think this should have been available to guests.

2 pools available, comfy and spacious rooms, gorgeous view from the outside seating area in the restaurant. Food was slightly repetitive but tasty and plenty of it. The setting is beautiful, right on the beach, can see the other islands from the hotel and both pools look out onto the beach. Quiet hotel, at all times, which makes for a peaceful break and restful night sleep.

Unable to get water unless you buy bottles from the restaurant at €4.50 a time, closest shop is a mile away where it is slightly cheaper, I have always been provided water refill facilities on site so this was disappointing. This was advertised as split on my booking.com but it turned out to be an hour and a half away, not much in the area itself but the location is pretty. Entertainment is a singer in the evening, not to my taste so wasn’t much to do in the evenings and unless you’re travelling as a couple it’s a bit too romantic. Looking at the cost of the other hotels and having stayed here, I would probably say it’s a little overpriced but not drastically.

Room size, sea view from the room, amenities, SPA, poolside loungers, activities (yoga, aquagym), vegetarian options at breakfast and dinner

Would've appreciated more varied vegetarian options at meals (always the same), SPA prices very high, pools were not heated
