Valamar Amicor Resort

Overall we had a wonderful stay at Valamar Amicor Resort and would be keen to return. The facilities are great and our children particularly enjoyed the variety of age-appropriate water slides and pool toys. Staff were helpful and considerate, particularly at check-in when we were invited to leave our bags and be escorted to dinner as it was late and approaching closing time. Food was sufficiently varied and of a high standard for buffet style; we never struggled for something to eat. Housekeeping seemed to vary throughout the week, sometimes excellent and sometimes a little sub-par. For example, on some days waste/recycling bins in our room were not emptied; on another, the bath mat was taken but not replaced so we had to improvise with a hand towel. The coffee machine in the room was also hit-and-miss; I think it needs replacing. At breakfast, the availability of barista-style coffee was inconsistent, with some waiting staff offering this proactively and some seemingly reluctant to do so. If you venture further (e.g. to the beach), there are some rather dilapidated buildings around which either need demolishing or redeveloping (I believe Valamar are planning to do so). For the horror buff, the beach near Arkana (next door hotel) features an abandoned coffee kiosk that looks like a post-apocalyptic movie set.

Excellent. Beat all expectations. Staff exceptional. Resort of good standard. Beautiful location in Stari-Grad. Recommend!

Excellent place to stay in Stari Grad. Around 20 minutes walk to the city centre, but the view the whole time is amazing. Staff could not be friendlier or more helpful. Everything was clean as can be, and its nice to see all the eco-friendly initiatives theyre supporting.

Super place, great staff and well managed. Nothing was too much trouble and they have thought of everything. Quality of the suites was excellent, air con was working well and it is all eco friendly which is a plus. Food great quality and varied, and sports offers super. Close proximity to beautiful crystal water beaches (bring swim shoes!) and the lovely town was a plus.
