Maistra Select Family Hotel Amarin

Best family hotel so far...

We stayed at Family Hotel Amarin in December 2024, and we can truly say it is a dream hotel for children! Everything is thoughtfully designed for the youngest guests – from the rooms, playgrounds, and animation programs to the restaurants and activities. At the same time, the hotel offers an excellent wellness area where parents can relax and unwind. The food is very diverse and delicious, catering to all tastes – both children's and adults'. Everything is freshly prepared, tasty, and of high quality. In addition, the hotel offers practical conveniences such as an EV charging station, making it even more appealing to modern families. We highly recommend Family Hotel Amarin to anyone looking for a carefree and unforgettable family holiday!

This is well equipped as a children's play hotel, ideal for young children and parents. However there are no real facilities or comfortable areas for adults, especially at this time of year. Neither are there many comfortable areas for families of differing ages to relax together and chat. The feel of the hotel is similar to living within a children's nursery facility. It does that really well. Transport out of the resort into the town is limited. Prior to 30th September there is an occasional free bus, a chargeable land train & chargeable boat. After that there is no free bus and no boat. The land train is also mainly full, leaving a taxi the only option at €20 one way. This was not made clear to us at the time of booking, or even on 30th September whilst in the resort, which was annoying. At the end of September various services at the hotel were reduced and advance notice of this would have been beneficial. Generally the service was just about ok, not especially helpful or friendly. The quality of the food is fresh and good, if rather repetitive. There is 1 child friendly bar area and the dining experience is chaotic and whilst totally child friendly is also disappointing if you are expecting a more usual adult or family mealtime. There was no evidence of any la carte restaurants. The hotel is very clean and well kept, in extensive grounds with two pebble beaches. There are various swimming pools indoor and out, catering for all ages and abilities that are attractive and well maintained.

We stayed at this hotel so many times that we stoped counting Everything about this hotel is excellent, very child friendly and you really have the feeling that the children are in the center at this hotel. The rooms are very spacious, the amentities that you have in the room are everything that you need for holidays (so even if you forget some of the amentities at home, there is no problem). The hotel has different playrooms for different children ages, there is an adukt gym, as well as children's gym. Also they have adults spa anf children spa, for a quality time between mum or dad and the child. The hotel has two indoor pools and a couplen of outdoor pools. There is also a big playground for children outside. You can rent a bike and go explore the town of Rovinj. The food is so good, that you can't stop eating, everything from soups, cold appetizers, ice cream, pancakes. There is a children station in the restautant, so the children can get the food by themselfs. At the resfaurants you also have a station for solid food for babies that you pick and they mix for your baby. I tell you, everything that you need, they have Recommend it a lot!

Easyjet Holidays misrepresented the hotel by omitting the following statement which we found at reception during our week there. "WE SEE OUR HOTEL AND ITS SURROUNDING COMPLEX AS ONE LARGE PLAYROOM .....". This statement says it all really. Everywhere is a childrens playground, intolerably noisy, with no where for a pair of pensioners like us to relax. The room smelled of cleaned up sick. The 3 swimming pools, spa and gym is full of toddlers and parents. They do makeup for 3 year olds and upwards ! This hotel is only OK for families with young children.... nothing for teenagers OR adults. It was a truly awful experiece for us. That said the staff were lovely, and I think they felt sorry for us ! We were the oldest in the hotel. We are seeking full compensation from Easyjet Holidays. DONT USE THIS HOTEL UNLESS YOU LIKE HUNDREDS OF SMALL NOISY CHILDREN !!
