Hotel Gran Vista Plava Laguna

A lovely, family friendly hotel with helpful happy staff. Stayed with my 8 year old daughter. Although there was not much entertainment in the hotel the receptionist was able to provide information about activities in the other hotels in Zelma Laguna. Food was plentiful and varied and there was the added bonus if sandwiches and cake at lunch time and complimentary beer, wine and soft drinks with dinner. The hotel was clean and well run and perfectly located for the beach and restaurants. Just a couple of minutes walk took us to the bus stop and tourist train station which both ran regular shuttle services into Porec town. Would definitely return.

We stayed at the hotel in the middle of august and although fully booked everything was clean and the service ran smoothly. Perhaps our cleaning lady could have been more detailed in her job and less abrupt when entering and telling us she had to clean the room, but it was a little discomfot we where willing to bare considering the low price we paid. Meal time was more than satisfactory, with a big variety of food and drinks and the restaurand has a gorgeous view on the Laguna which accompanied us through the whole vacation. The Location was superb: in the middle of the Laguna only steps away from everything; the Gran Vista is one of the Laguna Resort Hotels which offer free wifi in the htoels as well as the beaches and almost everywhere in Zelena. Also there is entertainment at night (and day) organized in a big sandy area where you can play beachvolley during the day and watch movies at night or hear concerts and musicals. Down the hotel there is a decent size pebble beach with clear water, or you can chose one of the many cemented terraces or again walk a little (very little and in the shade) in the pine forest and step down to tiny pebble corners or chose the rocks. If you're looking for sandy beaches this is not the right place for you, but there are multiple places where there is easy access to the see for whoever travels with children.
