Maistra Select Island Hotel Istra recensioner

Just perfect weekend. Staff was kind, food delicious and better plages then anywhere else in whole Istria

Alles Tip Top. Es war günstiger als auf anderen Plattformen und trotzdem war das Zimmer perfekt. Ich hatte kurz Angst da ich dachte ich muss beim Zimmer Abstriche machen. Keinesfalls !! Gerne Wieder

Un vrais havre de paix. J'y retournerai avec plaisir! On peut rester sur place quelque jours sans problème, il y a de bons restaurants, la mer, des piscines, la nourriture est assez bonne

We were looking forward to staying at this hotel. We knew it was coming to the end of the season for them so did not expect everything to be open. But on the second night they decided to turn off the air conditioning making the room hot and stuffy (24 to 25 degrees) first of all I thought the it had broken so went to tell the hotel reception. I told by the receptionist that the air conditioning was not working, he said the management decided to switch it off due to it being cooler. I told them it was too warm to sleep under the blankets and if I didn’t I was being eaten by mosquitoes. First of all it felt like he was saying tough, I asked if I could have a thin sheet sent up to my room and then contacted TUI. The next day they sent up a noisy fan that just made things worse. Over the 7 nights I was there I probably had 1 night good sleep. The breakfast was good with good choice. The main meal was ok but got boring quick it was a nice that soft drinks beer and wine was supplied with the food. The island is lovely. The main town Rovinj was gorgeous and I highly recommend visiting there, probably just stay on the main land because if the sea is choppy they warn you the boat may not run and you will be stranded. Also there is so many places to eat and drink you will be spolit. May be this hotel would be better in the summer when fully open but I can also seeing it being very busy. But if I knew they were going to switch off the air conditioning I would have never booked it.

Arrived on Tuesday for the 10th year Rooms updated what a pleasure Location 5 Food 4 Boat trip to hotel wonderful And as for ROVINJ ITS A LITTLE GEM FANTASTIC .sea so idilic just bring beach shoes and as for the walk round the island it's a pleasure to see nature and yes the sun beds there is hundreds so no reserving needed her happy holidays.

An extremely good location on an small island with a monastery, peace and privacy without a lot of crowds, good food in the hotel, connections to Rovinj are excellent with free transport. There is also a car park close to the port. The outdoor pool is nice, the rooms are also OK

This hotel and island blew us away. The setting, the views, the plentiful food and drinks - all wonderful. Everything was immaculately clean and well kept. The surrounding water crystal clear for snorkeling and plenty wildlife to see. We went to the Basilico Pizza and Pasta restaurant a couple of nights and the food and service was excellent. Rovinj itself was like a postcard and the first sight of it from the wee ferry across from the island will never be forgotten. We had a brilliant time and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this hotel.

This is a lovely hotel on an absolutely stunning island. We are still here, but I thought I’d write our review early. The island is breathtaking with lots to do and several of restaurants. There is water sports and always sun beds or beautiful areas to sit. If you come out of the hotel at either side, you’re faced with a stunning view. The rooms are absolutely fine. In fact they are really nice! I had read reviews saying they were small and outdated. I was worried about this as there are 3 of us, but we are more than comfortable, plus we have slept amazingly every single night so far. The team who service the rooms are excellent, they leave the place spotless. Also I had read there was only one plug outlet, but we have several! Our bathroom seems so have been upgraded too as it’s lovely. I think over the years the hotel has read feedback and actually worked hard to solve any issues. Also if you have any problems with air con, just say at reception and they fix it very quickly. The food is great. Plenty of choice and loads of it. Everything I’ve eaten has been delicious, so the cooking staff deserve real credit too. There is also unlimited, beer, wine, juice, water and cola (a local brand, but it’s really nice). This is a huge bonus. We are in high season, but never have to wait long to get drinks. My only negative about the restaurant is certain tourists. A lot act like it’s their last meal before the apocalypse. Some actually try to take the tongs out of your hand while you’re still using them. Also they power walk and cut in front of you when you have hot drinks in your hand. My tip is actually to come down for food after 7:30. These tourists are very punctual and most are down early (probably to make the most of the wine and beer). Honestly the waiting staff have the patience of saints. One tourist wanted something to pick at his teeth, so just walked into the staff only room to hoke about for something. It’s just a rudeness that stuns me, but you always get it. The ferry is brilliant and punctual. There is a queue rope at the hotel end, however in Rovinj it is hilarious, watching against certain tourists just walk right to the front and push on. There will be a queue right at the walkway and they just walk round it. They also try to get on before passengers are off. Every single time, the crew, have to stop them. Again I am impressed by their patience. Overall, the hotel and the island is lovely. Rovinj is also absolutely stunning, so as long as you can laugh at the abruptness of certain tourists, then this is an amazing place to stay.

The hotel is a super short boat ride from Rovinj port - the boats usually ran pretty timely and are included for hotel guests. The town of Rovinj is very cute Italian-vibes old town with plenty to see as you wander around. The pools were clean and well maintained. On the island is a water sports activity centre separate to the hotel, which we kayaked the surrounding uninhabited islands with, twice during our four night stay. My boyfriend loved the breakfasts each morning with lots of choice and was fresh and well made. Likewise for the evening meals in the buffet restaurant, although we preferred to go to the other restaurants on the island (not included in the half-board, but that's fine) I had never been to Croatia before, but my boyfriend and I would definitely go back

The hotel commands a stunning position on St Andrews island, which is a short boat ride from Rovinj old town. The views are just beautiful. The public areas of the hotel are modern and spotlessly clean. Rooms are cleaned everyday and clean towels provided, if so desired. Rooms are adequate, bright and airy. However, the bathroom could do with updating albeit exceptionally clean. The breakfast choice was good but a little crowded at times. We had lunch in the Italian, the food was rather bland with not much flavour and not hot enough. The snack bar by the main pool served pizza’s/salads/burgers which were very good. There is ample room around the pool and there are sun beds on the pebbly/rocky beach. (You need sea shoes, as its very uncomfortable getting in and out of the sea). The pool area is spotless and the big pool was lovely to swim in. The majority of staff were friendly and helpful however there were a couple who were rather officious. What we loved the most was getting dressed up and getting on the boat to go over to the old town every night for dinner. The boat goes on the hour and on the half hour coming back. It is free for hotel guests. There is an abundance of restaurants to choose from in Rovinj - you are spoilt for choice some more expensive than others. I would definitely stay at this hotel again, purely for its location and beautiful views.

Just spent 1 week in this hotel. On arrival we were allocated our room,only for me to go to reception and ask for a change. Live wires on show from a broken socket.light not working in the bathroom and edging coming away from table. They quickly sorted out a new room for is.. Staff were brilliant.Very obliging. Hotel and grounds were spotless. Beautiful views over the sea. Now food. To be honest, not the best. Weird combinations.More or less the same every evening

Positives- Smart, modern & clean hotel. Lovely island location. The ferry is free to the mainland of Rovinj which is pretty with lots of cafes, coffee shops & gelato bars. The ‘old town’ part is rustic & interesting. Very picturesque. Negativities- I wouldn’t recommend going in October as the weather is variable, there is no kayak hire, no cycle hire, no other restaurants open on the island… it’s the end of the season & most things are closed. You cannot get lunch as it’s half board, unless you settle for something from the expensive bar. If you like friendly personal service you’ll not get it here. This hotel is kitted out for large coach loads of Germans who just like to ‘eat & go’. The restaurant at 6:30 is like queuing for school dinners & the food is what you would expect from a hotel with over 300 rooms.

Positives - excellent island location with fabulous views & close to the beach Free ferry service into Old Town Great swimming pools Room ok but basic but the cleanliness was exemplary (special mention to Zoka the room cleaner who was an excellent ambassador for this hotel -pleasant friendly & helpful at all times Negatives--food bland & at times luke warm Tables uncomfortably close together Not enough staff in dining room clearing tables in the evenings Always having to ask rushed off their feet busy waiters for cutlery once vacant table found Very expensive hotel drinks menu to a captive audience (Seems lots of people stayed in restaurant to fill up on the free wine & beer after their meals but who can blame them!!!) Very disappointed with the evening entertainment not enough variety Had the drinks been more reasonably priced we would have enjoyed our time at the Istra & not used the ferry to the Old Town as often Sadly this hotel did not live up to our expectations

Really enjoyed our stay at this lovely hotel in a beautiful location. We had a sea view room on 3rd floor. Well worth the extra cost. As it was the end of season not all the facilities were open which was disappointing but on the other hand it was less busy and peaceful. The food was very good with lots of choice. But unfortunately very manic at times. This was managed by picking our times to dine. Staff were helpful and worked very hard. Would definitely return. Loved the boat transfer to Rovinj. Free and efficient.
