Hotel Monte Mulini

All along the coast you can see a mess of brightly colored charming little houses rising out of the beaches, interspersed with tiny little alleyways.

The guest rooms have been decorated in warm and earthy shades and colors. There are four infinity pools in the hotel, and one of them is shallow in consideration of the kids. The hotel spa stretches out across two floors, and it features a Turkish bath, a Finnish sauna, amongst other treatment rooms.

# 3

Valamar Crystal

The Valamar Crystal is located on the Istria waterfront, and it’s a short 15 minute walk away from the coast.

You can book a dolphin spotting tour, or you can even book a day trip to Venice. The hotel is designed in an extremely contemporary style with colorful plastic rocking chairs, and Moroccan cushions. The hotel bar is located outdoors, under the canopy of palm trees. The hotel shares grounds and facilities with the neighboring hotels Diamond and Rubin, and as such guests have a lot of ground to explore, and there are plenty of activities to engage in.

The only drawback to their otherwise brilliant beach hotel is the fact that their interior decor feels too functional and… well, boring, for lack of a better word. The carpets are all a dull shade of brown, and the furnitures lack character. Furthermore, you need to be careful while choosing the rooms as some of them face towards the car park instead of the beach.
