Hotel Ponta Nova

Pros: The view we had from the balcony was great and it’s only a 5/10 minute walk from a nice beach. Cons: We arrived an hour after our check-in time and our room was still being cleaned, we had to sit on the balcony with our bags whilst the cleaners finished up. The room wasn’t super clean (hairs on the bed, bits on the floor, fridge was a bit dirty, towel had a stain on it). It felt very outdated, like a bad Premier Inn room. The fridge wasn’t stocked at all. It’s a trek using different lifts to get to different parts of the hotel and they’re very small and there’s often a long wait time. The rooftop pool is big enough for one family and the general atmosphere up there is bad. Someone blocked us in our parking space so we had to wait a good while until they found the owner to come and move it (not what you need on the way to the airport). Overall kind of terrible for a 4* hotel and how much you pay, I’ve stayed in better and cleaner hostels.

The hotel (also listed as apartments Ponta) in general was unclean and unkept, the jacuzzi didn’t work and was disgusting, the pool was small cold and dirty, the bar was unmanned so the bar was not open the whole week, the lift to/from the pool was broke one day and the stairwell was locked, I panicked as the 2 staff in the stairwell I could see through the glass wouldn’t let us out and one shrugged his shoulders so we were trapped and no staff to help, room was filthy, riddled with dust, the floor and bedding were both dirty, the hot water was intermittent at best, the cleaners took the tip we left but never cleaned (bins emptied and towels changed only), the balcony door was broke and would not lock, we reported this at the reception immediately after checking in but the receptionist just told us to go to our room and ignored me when I asked if someone was coming and just stared at her mobile phone- no one ever showed for the whole week, there was rubbish bags left around, communal floors had spilled drinks there for days, Wi-Fi worked in the room for 2 days max and no Wi-Fi anywhere except reception. the restaurant /bar was virtually unmanned, the staff were all sat round a table having drinks all day and it took 3 members of staff to get us 2 beers, when someone did, I had to point out where the bottle opener was, the price list is apparently incorrect - I said we were overcharged for drinks but he said it’s a 2015 price list, no one came out to see if we wanted more drinks or to take the empties, nor did they come over when they seen us sat with a bottle of water we purchased elsewhere, they are just plain lazy!! Even before we booked we tried to contact them but never received a response. Just poorly managed and needs a good manager to oversee these flaws and get the staff to actually do some work- though there are some I am sure work hard, on the whole, we had little to no service and went largely ignored. The only nice part of it was location- the nice view from the room and pool area, it’s on a nice shingle beach, the walk along the beach takes you to Budva (~50 mins) the other direction there is another small quieter beach and you can do a very long and challenging (hazardous) walk to Sveti Stefan, there are shops nearby which are tucked away from the beach and very expensive. Beaches are nice but very busy, especially at weekends, we stayed in the quiet season so I’d imagine mid June onward would be as busy as the beaches on south west England (crowded!). Most of ge restaurants locally are over priced but there are s few around with specials boards so if you stay here I would recommend looking for them but overall I would not recommend this place and certainly not this hotel/ apartments until they sort the place out.

Hotel Ponta Nova, it was amazing, everything like in photo, the service it’s great ❤️ Rooms very comfortable and clean The view from balcony it was amazing 😻 For the parking it was a little problem, but in the and of the day we had our spot The staff it was there for everything we need

Прекрасный отель , расположение , вид из окна замечательный ! Профессиональный персонал готовый помочь и решить все проблемы! Отдельное спасибо всему персоналу ресторана !!!!!! Обязательно вернемся еще раз в этот отель ! Спасибо за прекрасный отдых .Жили в отеле 13.09-20.09 2023

Были в этом отеле со знакомой.К сожалению не оказалось двух отдельных кроватей,а была одна и не очень широкая.Номер пришлось поменять,так как изначально дали 0 этаж,а мы просили 3 и выше.И действитнльно,начиная с 3 этажа вид шикарный,но это пожалуй самое лучшее,что есть в этом отеле.Кондеционер потек,ковролан старый,из душевой кабины вода вытекает к унитазу.В номере убирают только мусор и меняют полотенца,даже туалетную бумагу не добавили,надо просить.Завтраки хорошие- шведский стол,а вот ужины как в детском саду- порции и очень однообразно: суп с вермишелью Кокоша и картофельное пюре либо с отбивной,либо с котлетой,гарнир капуста,помидоры и огурцы,это всегда.На десерт выпечка,которая осталась с завтрака. Администрация старается во всем помочь,претензий нет.В отеле 2 лифта с переходами,это тоже не очень удобно.
