  • My husband and I stayed here as part of our 20th anniversary trip and enjoyed it immensely. The hotel even left a slice of welcome cake in our room. Don't miss sitting at the bar and chatting with the bartenders. Elvir delighted us with conversation and his knowledge of local liquors. It made for a very enjoyable stay.

  • What a great place to spend some days. It's peaceful and beautifully surrounded by nature in a great location for sunset. Easy to take the 15" bus to wonder around Pula. The hotel is well kept and the service is friendly and professional.

  • "We love Elvir!"

  • Hotel is nice, friendly, and impeccably clean, but stay here to visit with Elvir the bartender and his wonderful collection of local brandies, gins, and liqueurs. When we travel it’s all about “what can we do here we can’t do anywhere else?” It’s getting harder. The world is getting smaller. Over the course of two nights my wife and I enjoyed Elvir’s company (and his impeccable English-he worked on US based cruise lines for many years) as he served us mistletoe toe brandy, Terran wine liqueur, a gin made by retied Air Force pilots, and many more wonderful spirits, all pared with his extensive knowledge of the Istrian peninsula and the facilities that make these exotic elixirs. I’ve run out of synonyms for booze so I’ll wrap this up. Stay at the Park Plaza Arena in Pula, cozy up to Elvir’s bar, and tell him Hayes and R sent you and you want to try the local hooch! And Elvir-please look us up if you come to the states so I can share my own modest collection :).

  • Beautiful location. We stayed in the 2 bedroom suite facing the ocean. Very convenient to everything. The breakfast buffet is abundant and fresh. Beach is private and beautiful. Saltwater(?!) pool was very chill with little bar and nice music. You can walk to explore other beaches and sister properties. Nice sauna with small gym. Good service and good experience. Short drive to colosseum and center. Only issue we encountered is lack of adequate parking.
