Bluesun Hotel Marina

I stayed in this hotel with a group booked through Just You. My room was comfortable though it overlooked the roof and air-conditioning units of another building. There was no space outside the hotel within the complex to sit and relax and the walk to the promenade would be difficult for anyone with walking disabilities. The dining room was stark and queues for food were greater than those to be expected in a three star hotel. The hotel staff were very pleasant and most helpful as were all the people we encountered in Croatia.

A very good (rather than excellent) place to stay in a delightful resort and it’s surprising how there are negative reviews for this place. The hotel is smart, clean, well-designed and well run and it is very much worth spending a little extra for a balcony with a sea view. There are some slight downsides - it would be normal to charge for parking at a hotel in the middle of a city, but this is a place in the countryside with a lot of land. But it doesn’t cost much. The other minor downside is understandable and unavoidable. A lot of people are staying here so the communal dining area is bound to be a little noisy; and there’s no alternative to serving the food in the style of a canteen. But the food is good, varies daily and has a lot of choices. If the noise discomfits you, go to breakfast before 8.00 am and to dinner after 8.00 pm and you’ll avoid most of the children. But for a hotel of this quality and at this price, with a semi-private beach, I would absolutely stay again.

Overcrowded, restaurant is self service no proactive considering beverages. Main dishes for dinner are well under expected . Parking is not close so forget keeping some staff in the car. Beautiful surroundings and beech. Four star hotel should have better organized sun beds directly on the beech. Hotel parcel is too small and seems nervous to pick up equipment for overnight even before regular working hours. How to enjoy sunset? Not to mention price of beds and parking. And no bar near the beach , you share bar of neighborhood hotel but no adequate service and bill the room even it is same owner. Big plus for nature, reception desk , volet parking and lady cleaner on B wing fourth floor. And thank God for 28 degrees sea temperature! And for management and staff, little changes/effort make great difference!

Good hotel for families with small children, otherwise, avoid it. The rooms are very small , A/C is not adequate. We had a superior room for two adults and one teenager which was tiny. Our room temperature was 25° despite air-conditioning on constantly. The bathroom was nice however smelled of mould. Beds are comfortable, decent bed linen however the towels urgently need to be replaced with new ones they are old and rough. Overpriced! For the price of €360 a night the room was not even close to satisfactory. Breakfast buffet was good however restaurant is overcrowded and it was very chaotic , not pleasant. Hotel is in a beautiful setting, very close to the beach. Lovely beach is literally on the doorstep. Reception staff was lovely, some Restaurant stuff was very helpful, mainly foreign workers. The guys in charge of car parking and valeting were uninterested in their work. They were more interested in their phones and their cigarettes. We had no help with our luggage. It was not even offered. Having said all of this, this hotel sadly needs lots of improvement as it has a great potential.

Bluesun Hotel Marina is overpriced We stayed at Bluesun Hotel Marina in August 2026: 10 days, 2 adults and 1 child. We paid around €3,300 just for the hotel. Add flights, airport transfer, beach chairs (€40 per day from the hotel), lunches (€50–60 per day), ice cream and other small expenses, and a 10-day family vacation in Croatia easily goes above €5,500. Rooms The rooms are clean and neat, and the size is average. However, even at the price we paid, our room overlooked the neighboring balcony rather than the sea. A sea view costs extra. Hotel territory Very small. In my view, the territory is not even close to what I would expect from a 4-star resort hotel. Beach We really loved the sea, the surrounding nature and this particular beach. The water is exceptionally clean. The beach is small-pebble rather than sandy. It is more comfortable for children than a rocky beach, but still not as convenient as a proper sandy beach. Beach chairs from the hotel cost around €40 per day, which feels excessive considering the room price. Food Overall, we liked the food. This is one of the few parts of the hotel that actually matches the price and the 4-star rating. One strange issue is breakfast: there are only two frying stations for omelettes. You either spend 15–20 minutes waiting in line or simply skip the omelette. Kids room and entertainment The kids room was a major disappointment. There is a gaming console, so naturally our child was glued to the football game whenever he went there. At the same time, nobody seems to maintain the traditional games. For example, both tabletop football games were missing the ball. So they have no chance of competing with the TV games. There are also sports and entertainment activities at another Bluesun hotel nearby, around a 7–10 minute walk away, but we never used them. Parking The hotel charges €10 per day for parking, and this is actually worth it. They provide valet parking, which is convenient and reasonably priced. Conclusion In my view, Bluesun Hotel Marina feels more like a good 3-star hotel than a 4-star hotel. It was definitely not worth the price we paid. At this price point, even in August, you can find much better value for money in other destinations. That said, we still managed to have a great family vacation. The sea and the beach were beautiful, the food was good, and we enjoyed our time together.
