TUI BLUE Adriatic Beach

We stayed at this hotel for 5 nights, we had such a lovely time here as the room was so stunning as was the views. We had a swim up room which was amazing as we would recommend getting one if you can as it was just luxury. It was rather cold so we only went in once but still worth it for the view. Food was lovely, not sure what everyone was complaining about as there was lots of choice for everyone and it was delicious. I imagine it gets quite repetitive if staying for 2 weeks but we didn't have a problem. Coffee was very nice from the coffee bar. Cocktails were bad, possibly the only thing letting this hotel down, we tried every single one of the cocktails and they were all horrible. In the end we asked for one from the bar staff off the menu and it was amazing so we drank that for the rest of the holiday. Staff were polite and helped wherever they could, rooms were serviced every day. Lovely time had by all, evening entertainment did leave a lot to be desired, maybe live music that lasted a bit longer would be better.

We had an amazing two weeks from the 15th of September this year. The minute we arrived, we were greeted by Zeljana and Mirela on reception who couldn't do any more to be so accommodating, so friendly and helpful. The room which had a direct Sea view was so modern and comfortable, we couldn't complain about the location or the comforts of the room and the hotel. The restaurants were very comfortable, the food choice was really amazing, we never got bored in two weeks of being there. There was fresh meat being cooked daily, lovely pizzas, freshly cooked eggs however you wanted them and great salads. There was so much choice, even the chips were amazing! The restaurant was headed up by Delroy the head chef who was absolutely incredible! My wife Jan has an intolerance to onion, he arranged for food to be cooked without onion and it was delicious. He always came over to say hello and have a chat as if we were the only guests there, he even came in on his time off to make sure guests were catered for and happy. An amazing chap with an amazing work ethic. Working in the restaurants were Marianna/Mariana (sorry not quite remembering how her name was spelt) she was so happy and friendly, as was her friend who worked alongside her. I will post some photographs so you know who we are talking about. Such a happy team who did a great job and made our holiday really special. What do we stay here again? Definitely! Was there anything that needed to be improved? Yes, the white party was not a party, that was the only let down. The gym was in desperate need of an update, the Tui hotel along the beach had what seemed to be a brand-new gym with a concept 2 rowing machine! In The Adriatic Beach, one of the rowers was broken, the other was just about usable but not the best bit of kit. My recommendation if you are to refit the gym is to get no other rowing machine other than a concept 2, they are bullet proof! The silent disco was great fun, the coffee bar was also great to have. We felt the holiday was good value for money. Our friends Keith and Linda have also reviewed, they were with us for the first week and they also both thoroughly enjoyed the holiday and the hotel. We stayed in room 4102 and our names are Barry and Jan for the record! Thank you all for making our holiday special, we holiday with Tui at least twice a year and I would say that this was one of our best Holiday experiences.

The best holiday I've ever had. I loved every minute of it. I booked this hotel as a surprise 30th birthday present for my partner and so opted for the sea view room with large balcony. On arrival to the hotel the transfer took a very long time and we were sat on the coach for over an hour before we head off to our hotel which then was another 2 hours ish. Obviously no fault of the hotel but just wanted to mention because as soon as we got to the hotel all that stress was immediately vanished away. We got to the hotel quite late and we hadn't eaten anything since lunch time. The hotel went out their way and made up sandwiches in our hotel room for our arrival which was so thoughtful of them. The morning after, opened the curtains and saw just how close the sea and beach was from our room - so much so that opening the balcony door we could hear the waves of the sea. Absolute bliss! The time we spent around the hotel was amazing, pool is lovely to swim in and not too overwhelmingly big but also a good enough size to swim lengths in. We were able to get sunbeds pretty easily which had a bar by the pool for your all inclusive drinks. They were lush! Highly recommend the pizza restaurant along the promenade of our hotel, absolutely delicious pizzas where you can sit in the shade but also enjoy the views of the sea. Staff were super friendly, with the reps accessible very often to help book excursions. We did 3 - definitely recommend; Krka Waterfalls, Omis and Makarska town. All in all we just had the best time and we were so sad when we had to leave.

Stayed at this hotel in September with my partner we had paid for an upgraded room to a junior suite partial sea view it was such a dissapointment the balcony was not looking out to the sea but instead it was level with a roof and solar panals so the balcony was not used the sea view was through a closed window. The room itself was clean and towels changed everyday the only issue we had was the duvet was to small for the bed. The views from the hotel are breath taking and the coffee dock in reception was really good they are the only positives I can find. The pool was ok but the snack bar that was opened for lunch from 12- 2 only served popcorn,wraps and dry sandwiches if you wanted something hot you had to go back upstairs to the main buffet which is a pain. The pool area itself was not very clean there was alot of dirt on the floor. People are also allowed to smoke at the pool area which I found bad as the sunbeds are close together. The food in the buffet was not good at all and the hygeine of some of the cooks was not ok I went to get some fried eggs one of the morings and the lady was scraping the grease and bits of old egg off with a spatula then proceeded to use the same one to turn eggs over with. The food was tasteless and very repetitive. We ate in the restaurant on one of the nights as it was part of the deal the meal was cold and missing items when we asked for it we were told they had no chips left bt never offered potatoes or veg instead so glad we didn't pay extra for this meal. The cocktails are so bad and the staff at the mojito bar really don't want to be there cocktails are from a machine and the staff just throw the lime and mint into a glass and fill it they don't even bother to juice the lime. This is not a cheap hotel to stay in by any means and for a Tui Blue hotel it really needs to step up to the mark.

I'm going to try to be positive and honest about our recent week at the tui adriatic beach hotel, I don't really understand how other reviews are so bad as on the whole we had a lovely time, Positives = Beautiful location Lovely staff Clean and well maintained rooms Not so positive = Food was adequate, breakfast was good,but evening was a mix of being repetitive and not very hot,although the salad bar and pizza was good and the Desserts were great,also the snacks available were very disappointing just cold wraps or basic sandwiches We eat in the cullinarium one night and although the service and ambience was lovely the food was just average, I paid extra to have a steak and it was just average my husband had to ask for two Desserts as his main course of salmon was so small, Entertainment was really not great if you like evening entertainment it's really just a singer in the corner of the overcrowded lounge, we were in bed most nights by 9.30 because we felt there was nothing else to do, (not necessarily a bad thing when you have a busy life at home) We paid to visit the spa which was really lovely but a nice place to relax after our treatments would of been nice rather than just straight back to reception. All in all we did have a great holiday but would I return to this hotel probably not but we really loved Croatia and will definitely return.
