拉巴克Four Elements Beach附近酒店

We recently stayed at Hotel Istra Opatija for a fallbreak getaway, and we couldn't have been more pleased. The breakfast buffet was abundant and offered a wide variety of options. The bar also served excellent cocktails and delicious meals. Our room was spacious, and the facilities were in line with the money we spent. However, what truly stood out for us was the range of sports activities included in the hotel's services. This was the primary reason for choosing this hotel, and it didn't disappoint. We had the pleasure of meeting the trainer, Ana, who was brimming with energy and positive vibes. She tailored the activities perfectly to our fitness levels and needs. Usually, we don't spend much time in the hotel while on vacation, but this time it was almost impossible to leave because we were so well-entertained on the premises. Even the less-than-ideal weather didn't bother us, as the hotel had so much to offer. In summary, if you plan to visit Opatija, you absolutely must stay at Hotel Istra.

This hotel was a brilliant pick for our getaway. Nicest always wearing a smile staff. Nice rooms with sea view. Good choice of swimming pools (also heated indoors). Location on the beach. This time of year, they have only opened, so not crowded and felt even more special. Spa and relax zone was superb, three different types of sauna and the massage we took was amazing. I would recommend in all aspects, they really make you feel wellcomed.

This is a friendly and comfortable hotel, within easy reach of Lovran village and a pleasant coastal walk away from Opatija. I went with Just You Holidays for solo travellers and so was part of a fairly large group. My room was a good size, included a fridge with minibar and also a kettle (no tea or coffee provided). The bathroom was fine, with shower over bath. I had paid extra for a sea view, and was very glad I’d done so, as it was lovely to sit on my balcony looking at the sea. I got beautiful sunrises every morning. The rooms facing the road would have quite a bit of traffic noise and fumes, whereas I was able to keep my balcony doors open all the time. My only criticism about the bedroom is that the carpet is worn and in need of a clean. Otherwise, everything was spotless. There are 3 pools: 2 outdoor and one inside, also a wellness centre and gym which I didn’t use. The adult pool outside was salt water, which I liked. Plenty of sunbeds around the pools and in the garden, but that side of the hotel is in the shade from mid-afternoon. The beach to the left of the hotel, 5 minutes walk away, stayed sunnier for longer and personally I enjoyed swimming in the sea. It’s pebbly, so take or buy water shoes. The water is wonderfully clear and clean. Breakfast was good, with an excellent variety of foods. The dinners were ok, nice salads, but not much hot food choice for vegetarians. Plenty of fish. It was pretty standard package holiday hotel fare. Some of us went out to the harbour a couple of evenings, just for the joy of eating by the water and having waiter service! I would definitely return if staying in this part of Croatia, and I hope to explore more of that beautiful country.
