Aminess Maestral Hotel

Fantastic hotel set in a great spot. Great rooms, comfy beds and kept very clean. Very good food to suit all tastes and freshly cooked . Plenty of room in the restaurant for it never to feel packed and has a goid atmosphere. The hotel has lovely grounds ans is a short walk to a supermarket and to the town via a mice promenade along the seafront.

The hotel is situated very close to a nice pebble beach. The hotel area is big and very well maintained. Rooms are modern but rather small, very little place for luggage. Reception staff friendly and helpful ( except one lady) . Big variety of food and very delicious. Big and convenient bike room with power sockets for e-bike loading. To sum up, the hotel is absolutely worth to spend vacation!

We currently staying in Aminess Maestral and we are not happy at all. I don't even know where to start. Sunbeds by the pools are always occupied, you have to come to occupy them already at 8am, otherwise you have no chance of getting them. It doesn't say anywhere that it's a public place, so it's incredibly busy. Sunbeds are occupied by people who are not even staying at the hotel. So basically you can rent a cheap Airbnb in the city and come to use the hotel's services. People camp on the grass here with their own food !!! And it is extremely noisy here. The toilets at the infinity pool are so dirty, that we have to go to the hotel to use the toilet, which is also not ideal. As hotel guests, we have no privacy here, only in the room, which is also terribly small. Breakfast or dinner, always many people in the dining room waiting in line,food is mostly cold. Yes, there is a lot to choose from, but it's always the same. The whole week I see the same food! The manager is super kind and tries to help with everything - especially with sunbeds, but with such a number of people, it is simply not possible. The gym starts at 8am! So by the time I am done, I have barely time for breakfast. We are here with our children and parents and we were really looking forward to this holiday together, but instead we are in a bad mood and disappointed with everything. We are supposed to be here for another 8 days, but we are thinking about leaving sooner, which has never happened to us anywhere.

My daughter and I have just spent 2 weeks here and can honestly say it is one of the best holidays we have ever had. The hotel is modern, very clean and has a welcoming feel about it. The rooms are a little small and only 2 people can sit on the balcony (very small) the bathrooms are modern with shampoo, shower gel and hairdryer available. Bathrobes and slippers provided. Mini bar and safe in the room. The food is amazing, loads of choice and good quality. It is the usual buffet/self serve and the dining room can get busy, but there are plenty of places to sit and the team ensure the tables are cleaned regularly. Drinks are expensive, approx €5.50 for a glass of wine amd €9 for a cocktail, that's the same everywhere I suppose these days. Supermarket and tourist information on site too with everything you need. On site gift shop, not much in there and never saw anyone in there either. ATM at the hotel, hairdressers and games room. The indoor pool is huge, with lovely sunbeds outside to relax on, jacuzzi, all very clean and relaxing. The beach is beautiful, pebbly so you will need some swim shoes. Sunbeds on the beach are payable €17 for 2 and an umbrella for the day. Beach towels are included and you can get clean ones each day. The watersports are reasonably priced, $12 for an hour paddleboarding, other things too like pedalos, kayak etc. The beach has a really relaxed feel about it, loads of grassy areas to sunbathe on too, some under the trees if you want shade. Novigrad town is a 10 minute walk away, really pretty with lots of shops, bars, restaurants. Nothing noisy, family orientated and chilled. There is a little road train that goes each way if you don't want to walk. The area feels safe, it is clean, very green, beautiful clear sea and bike hire available to get around to explore the sites. The cleaning team are lovely and work hard, the place was spotless! I would like to say a special thank you to Marko at the restaurant near the beach, he was very attentive and made sure we had everything we needed and we felt really well looked after. He should definitely be recognised by the management! I could go on and on, definitely worth a visit and hopefully we will be back very soon! Thanks Aminess Maestral team!

This is if not one of the best hotels I’ve visited in Croatia. From the staff, food, facilities and hospitality are outstanding. Very helpful and cannot do enough for you when requested. Facilitates are great and has a lot on offer from beach activities to personal classes and spa treatments. A well worth place to visit.

Disco at the indoor playground was wonderful! Infinity pool is magnificent, has a wonderful view! Breakfast has everything you need!
