Bluesun Hotel Soline

Anlände runt 22.00, vid detta skede var middagen klar men de tillhandahöll tallrikar med kall kött/sallad vilket var trevligt. Rummet var ett standardrum med balkong, rummet var rymligt med ett modernt badrum, städat varje dag till en hög standard och städare hälsade dig alltid när du kom ut ur rummet på morgonen. Utsikten från balkongen var dålig, det fanns ett stort träd som täckte det mesta av vad som skulle ha varit havsutsikt, det hindrade också ljuset från att komma in i rummet, vi gillar att sitta ute och läsa när vi var på semester men kunde inte gör detta en gång. Maten var riklig och utsökt, bra variation med kött, fisk och pizzorna var särskilt välsmakande. Frukosten var densamma varje dag men bra val av kokta, bakverk, bröd och kallskuret - för britterna - håll dig borta från de bakade bönorna! Tjänsten var mycket bra bortsett från en kväll när ingen. Och till vårt bord för att fråga om vi ville ha drinkar. Särskilt nämnt Steffan och Filip, även tvillingtjejerna som verkade vara kändisar när folk bad om att få sina bilder tagna med dem - de kanske inte har sett enäggstvillingar tidigare?! Spa var trevligt - se upp som vissa gillar att bara alla där! Vi hade en härlig massage på vår sista dag. Gymmet såg välutrustat ut men använde det inte. Baren var väldigt tyst när vi var där, inte säker på om detta berodde på årstiden, de kunde göra med att ge en drinkkupong till gästerna, detta skulle locka in dem och om andra ser att det är upptaget är jag säker på att de skulle följa efter. Den huvudsakliga busshållplatsen till Split är uppför en mycket brant kulle med många trappsteg, se upp om rörelseproblem tog oss cirka 20 minuter och vi är ganska snabba. Brela är en liten stad, mycket stängt när vi åkte, värt en promenad längs havet till nästa stad Baška Voda eftersom det händer mer där. Stränderna i sig är vackra, en härlig naturskön promenad kan tas åt andra hållet mot den prisbelönta stranden Punta Rata. Sammantaget ett trevligt hotell, det bästa förmodligen maten och med en bättre utsikt från rummet och det kunde ha varit en 5.

A fantastic hotel in a perfect location right on the sea front promenade, we had a superior double room with side sea view which actually was as good as a full sea view. The room was spotless and spacious with a free safe which was a bonus. Food was plentiful with a good choice for breakfast and dinner, a special mention to Anita, she was so friendly and always gave us a hug, in fact all the staff were very friendly and helpful, as is Croatia in general, a beautiful country. The hotel is situated in the small village of Brela but has a good selection of bars and shops along the promenade which stretches a good 10km, 3km to the left is the town of Baska Voda a 20 min walk but an easy paved flat walk, likewise to the right of the hotel another 7km easy flat paved walk, either way is stunning. If you are booking trips then the hotel reception has them all with a staffed booking desk most days. I strongly recommend the sky walk via Tuk Tuk, well worth the extra cost, also Krka National park, approx 1.5hrs by coach, bus stop is just a 100 yards up from hotel, Krka N.P is simply breathtaking with stunning waterfalls, paradise found here. Oh and not forgetting the magical sunsets. Thank you to all at Blue Sun Soline, our first visit to Croatia, it was magical, a stunning holiday. Faultless.

So I’m coming to the end of another glorious 2 weeks at bluesun soline, had a little bit of an issue with my original check in but that was soon rectified thanks to Angela and Mila. I’ve been coming since 2018 and the reason being is simply I love it here . The staff really make my holiday enjoyable from the reception restaurant, bar staff and cleaners in fact everybody. Seeing how hard they all work to keep the hotel running smoothly is amazing it really is. There are pine trees at the front of the hotel and watching the cleaners trying (never ending) to make sure all pines are picked up wow really passionate about the appearance of the hotel. As I said had bit of an issue on check in but was soon rectified by Angela & Mila. The manger even sought me out to make sure everything was ok when she heard of my issue, was quite overwhelmed by the fact that she seemed to care so much wanting my stay to be as enjoyable as possible. The hotel is situated right on the beach literally a stone throw away. Brela itself is a small little village/town that has all the charm of Croatia. I wish I could stay longer but unfortunately I can’t, it’s my second visit this year and I don’t think I will ever tire of Brela or bluesun soline. Thank you to everybody at soline for making my stay feel like I’m the most important guest ever to visit the hotel.

So I’ve just recently got back from my 7th or 8th stay at soline brela I love it absolutely love it Soline is perfectly situated right on the beach at Brela. The quaint little town of Brela is perfect for me not to hustle and bustle, perfect relaxation indeed with a scattering of restaurants and the odd bar or two. Looking out from my hotel balcony onto the gorgeous Adriatic is lovely a real stunning view. The hotel has 2 bars and a swimming pool that goes inside as well as outside not the deepest pool but you have the ideally situated sea just outside. I always go the half board option which is breakfast and evening meal (dinner) it’s a buffet selection which I thoroughly enjoy the hotel has another restaurant as well if you want to choose from the menu I prefer the buffet. The staff absolutely make my stay amazing most of them remembering me from previous visits which is really nice, they work so so hard making my stay enjoyable and from what I can see everybody else’s as well always friendly polite with a warm and pleasant greeting, they all work so hard it’s a real credit to the hotel. I had a problem with my zip on my suitcase (baggage handlers) whilst asking reception for any nearby shops she insisted on getting the maintenance man to have a look for me and it was fixed very grateful indeed . I’ve been coming since 2018 often twice a year my only negative comments are the parking normally you can’t get outside the hotel BUT they have parking staff who will park your car in nearby car parks of the sister hotels and other car parks of the hotel. Then the price I know everything has gone up and I’m fully aware of everything but in my opinion there has been a real hike in price since I came 6 years ago, other than those slight things I can’t get enough of bluesun soline so much so that when they answer my email I’m back there in September

Special thx to: Angela - on reception Anita - on breakfast service Rashid + Stefan on lunch Service Fantistic Stuff with humor and the WILL that we ( the customers ) have a very good time and feel well round the clock. We see you all next time again.

So I have stayed here many times and always had wonderful experiences hence why I keep going back there BUT today I checked in with reception as you always do always being polite smiling because I know most of them and never have any problems. I was given my key and off I went to a room. Now I book a particular style of room because it’s quite spacious and the view is always fantastic and I know by booking this particular room I will get what I want and what I pay for. After arriving back at reception I explain that sorry it’s not the room I booked it’s in fact smaller and again not what I paid for, to be snapped at by the receptionist and told we are fully booked, again politely I explain yes you maybe but I booked last October and booked a specific room type/size. She disappeared briefly came back and said again we haven’t got 1 of those rooms till tomorrow no sorry no empathy in her voice whatsoever and insisting that the room I have been given is the same size as what I have booked.!! No it isn’t hence why I don’t book this type of room.!! So she then says what do you want me to say apart from we are fully booked.!! Absolutely gobsmacked by this I again say but it’s smaller again she tells me it isn’t. So I’m now in a room that I never wanted albeit only till tomorrow and the other people on reception have assured me that I will be moved tomorrow BUT maybe A do t talk to customers like that because first impressions last B be a bit understanding because if that was you in this situation I’m sure you wouldn’t be that happy.!! The other lady who I later spoke to was very apologetic and understanding I know my stay will improve because I certainly won’t be talking to her again and the rest of the staff will make up for it because they are fantastic and work tirelessly to help customers and keep the place running how it should be. But what a great start to my holiday.!!
