Hotel Mimosa Lido Palace - Maslinica Hotels & Resorts

The hotel is in a complex, and the area around it is picturesque. Our room was lovely but the heating was on, and no air conditioning provided. We found turning off the heat and leaving our door and the patio door open cooled things down. We slept well. The towels were changed daily, and the beds made up to a fashion. There were two duvets folded on both sides of a double bed, but not set out. Each evening we had to spread the duvets out before getting into bed. The bed was very comfortable and the curtains kept the light out. The first night I could hear loud music from the restaurant area, This went on until 23:30, fortunately this did not happen again for 7 days! The bathroom was modern, but the tiles on the floor in the room were potential slip hazards when wet, this was the case in the hotel as well. One evening somebody slipped over in the restaurant ,,and had to be taken to hospital. There was only one mains socket on the wall, and the fridge was plugged into another, There could be more mains sockets or USB sockets provided. Our grown up son had a single room which was much smaller than ours, but also it only had one mains socket. There is no kettle provided, so be sure to take one with you. The breakfast and the main meal in the evening were of high standard, and buffet style which we like. The cappuccino from the machines is good. It is rare nowadays to find a hotel that provides hot food, it was not Cordon Bleu, standard but well cooked and there is at variety of choices. There are vegetarian options, which our son appreciated The desserts were lovely as well!. Unusually we got our first drink of the evening in with the cost of half board, we could have wine, beer, or a soft drink, and had to present the card for our room each time. The indoor pool was OK, but had salt water in it. We tried the hotel next door, which we were told welcomed people to use their indoor pool which was chlorinated, this was lovely. The staff were lovely in the restaurant, as were the staff on reception, especially Sara was friendly and helpful. The hotel is near to the beach, and also there is a short walk along the promenade into the fishing village of Rabac which is very pretty. Overall a fantastic break, with good food, and also close to boat trips and walks. My son and I walked up the hill, through the forest up to Labin which is a medieval town on top of the hill it is a great walk if you can climb up rocks etc. I am 70 and managed it.

Would strongly recommend everyone to avoid staying at this hotel. Rooms with a musty smell, the worst / most uncomfortable pillows ever and worst of everything you are not safe leaving your personal belongings unattended. I left my phone phone charger in the room, called to kindly ask them to send it back to me (at my own cost, of course) and they absolutely ignored my request and disrespected me; I called 3 days in a row and every time they told me that would get back to me, it's been over a week and nothing. Really bad experience.

The only thing that saved our holidays during the stay in this hotel, was the location: it is situated on the Maslinica beach overlooking the beautiful bay of Rabac. The views to the bay (and from it when swimming) are just amazing. Unfortunately, everything else falls under the negative part. We’ll go point by point in a structured way to be more specific: Arrival: Parking is overcrowded - there's barely any free spot available, especially in the second half of the day. When asked for advice or help, the staff at the reception just said that we should look for parking elsewhere. Reception: Speaking of the reception and the check-in process: the staff were very unfriendly and not welcoming at all. Internet: During our stay Internet (Wi-Fi) wasn't working. We were told that they "were working on fixing it", but after 3 days it still didn't work. So we believe it's a permanent issue, and the technical issue was just an excuse. Lifts: There are only 2 small lifts for a huge facility and 7 floors (8 including ground) - it results in awfully long waiting times, even not at peak times. On most of the occasions we just had to walk down- and upstairs (with a stroller and bags!) because we’d have waited for over 10 minutes in vain. Just a chaos. Balcony: The balcony itself was nice and big, with a beautiful view to the bay. However, there's barely any separation from the other rooms' balconies - so you see all the people around, and they see you. Also from their balconies right into your room unless you curtain off the window: so you need to decide either against sunshine, or against privacy. Also, if anyone starts smoking - all the smoke goes to you as well from all directions. And as the hotel slopes down in steps as a pyramid, people from the upper balconies also see everything what you're doing on yours. Room: The room is rather big and offers enough space for a family. However, air conditioning wasn't working properly - with only barely some cooled air blowing through the vents even at maximum speed. Thus, sleeping was not comfortable, and opening door to the balcony wasn't an option on safety grounds - see the above point. Catering: That's the most disappointing part of our experience. We had a room booked with Breakfast. For some reason, people with half board can reserve tables for breakfast, while people with breakfast only - can't. So they're given tables through the sole discretion of a man who considers himself "king of the hill' in the restaurant and decides as he wishes - name's Dino. Technically, it can be considered a 'price discrimination' of the customers - we've never ever seen such a thing in other hotels that we've been to. Moreover, there’s an unwritten hospitality rule of “first come – first served”, which is obviously not followed there. To make the matters even more ridiculous, and as if in irony to the customers, there’s a sign at the entrance indicating the period between 7 and 8 in the morning as green – or the best tim

The hotel is lovely, very clean, good location and welcoming staff. I am an English woman travelling alone and although they don't get many English visitors all the staff were helpful and spoke English. I would especially like to mention Maya in the restaurant who's smiling face and personal touch each day really made my holiday, thank you Maya.....

Recommendable hotel near the beach, severally pools, large balconies at the most rooms, good stuff, good food You can made boot tour to the island Cres, to the little town Cres and thee Blue Cave on Cres.

It is a very nice hotel. Perfect for families.

Location: 10/10 - 10 second walk to the beach, a lot of restaurants, shops and bars near the hotel. Parking is just in front of the hotel. The closest "non-turist" city is Labin, which is just 10 min car drive away. Staff: Really nice and friendly. Rooms: Huge, clean. The balcony is big. The view is amazing. The only negative sides are the transparent bathroom door and no roof over the balcony (problem esspecialy at mid day because it can get frying hot; and when it rains). Food: amazing. Fresh, a lot of choices (diner has always more than 4 types of meat, seafood, 10+ different salads, 10+ different ice creams, desserts), nothing ever runs out, also good for diets - allergens are marked on everything (i'm gluten-free and I didn’t have the slightest problem picking something for myself). Hotel: Clean. They have 2 elevators, which are very small and can get a bit crowdy at breakfast and diner time. All three (Mimosa, Narcis and Hedera) hotels are beside one another - all together they have 3 outdoors pools (1 with sea water) and 2 indoor pools (I think), fitness (free to use), SPA, hairdresser, market, hotel bars, money exchange. Prices: No complains here. Of course it's a turist destination and the prices are a bit high, but still normal if not even cheap compared to other turist destinations. Cocktails in a bar which is 20 m from the hotel and 10 m from the beach are 52 kunas (around 7 €), coffee around 2 €. Will definitely revisit it.

Our experience as a family (he, she and two daughters - 6 and 4) was very pleasant. Room was clean from the get go and cleaned every day. Although we did not spent too much time inside, it was a great feeling to come to sleep in a very cozy and chilly room (The AC = #1). And the refrigerator (chill box) was very helpful. Internet connection very good (even next to the pool). What was a very pleasant surprise? To see that the manager of the dinning room kept everything in check. People were asked to keep a mask on and the staff did the same. Because of the situation (pandemic and all) we were assigned to a eating table for the entire stay. So there was no looking for the best spot next to the buffet table, no confusion at all. Everybody knew what to do and it was a great feeling to see a little bit of discipline. This rule (room/table) could be great for the future. Food was very good and there was something for every taste. Trays were always filled back in time. Very pleasant staff. Young, respectful girls and boys made everything at the right time. The pool (or better said the pools) were as they were suppose to be (clean and safe). The Showers were functional. The Adriatic Sea was right there. less than a minute away. Crazy water! The best part of all? We had the chance to be there when they had a "Fire Show Night". It was a very nice experience for the kids and for us as well. The magic Egyptian, kept everybody at the edge of their seats during his performance. Congrats! Then the activities in the day time. Kids Club twice a day, Aqua Gym, Stretching etc. Everything was there,. At the tip of the nose. Great stuff! Something bad, i can not recall. Just that there was just one socket in the room, so we charged the batteries in turns. If there were a scale 1 to 10? I could give it easily a 9.5 and never look back. Thank you!

Struttura molto grande, si presenta abbastanza bene con una buona accoglienza, non appena siamo arrivati nella camera però…… bagni non pulitissimi, con capelli e macchie in vasca. Da un angolo della stanza vedo un buco nel muro da cui entrano miliardi di formiche. Chiesto il cambio stanza ci è stato proposto il peggio del peggio con odore di fumo e ancora meno pulizia dicendoci che era la camera inizialmente assegnataci , così per farci star buoni. Abbiamo scelto di dormire con le formiche (rendo l’idea?) con la promessa del personale che avrebbero trovato la soluzione. Soluzione che non è stata trovata. Ci siamo arrangiati uccidendole a modo nostro per dormire tranquilli… insomma… non va bene così.
