Amadria Park Hotel Jakov

We are currently staying at this hotel and, unfortunately, our experience has not met our expectations considering the price we paid. The hotel offers excellent facilities for children, which is by far its biggest strength, and the food is generally tasty. However, the selection of dishes is quite limited and could be much more varied. It was also surprising that there was no watermelon available at dinner during the summer season, as this is almost a standard offering in hotels of this category. At breakfast, there are no labels indicating which dishes contain pork and which do not. This makes it difficult for guests who avoid pork for religious or other dietary reasons. During dinner, soup bowls are often unavailable, and it takes far too long for staff to replenish them, giving the impression of poor organization. The sun loungers on the beach do not have cushions and are very uncomfortable, which is disappointing for a hotel in this price range. We expected a much higher level of comfort. The biggest disappointment, however, is the cleanliness. The toilet brush in our bathroom was extremely dirty, which is completely unacceptable and leaves a very poor impression of the hotel’s housekeeping standards. This hotel has great potential, mainly because of its excellent facilities for children, but there are too many shortcomings that should not occur in a property of this category. For the price guests pay, a significantly higher standard of service, better organization, and greater attention to detail should be expected. Unfortunately, the overall value for money is disappointing

Upon arrival at the hotel, three coachloads of school children were checking in simultaneously, resulting in an extremely chaotic atmosphere. Once checked in, these large groups occupied the pool and communal areas, substantially impacting the relaxing family holiday experience we had expected from a Luxe Collection property booked with Jet2 holidays. I raised my concerns with the hotel reception team and asked whether we could use the pool facilities at the neighbouring sister hotel. I was informed this was not possible and was advised simply to avoid peak times when the school groups were present. Whilst some groups departed after a few days, our relief was short-lived as we later received a letter advising that additional school groups would be arriving. Had we been made aware that the hotel regularly accommodated large school groups during our stay, we would not have chosen this property. The atmosphere felt far more akin to a holiday camp than the premium, family-friendly Luxe Collection experience advertised by Jet2. In addition, we found the information regarding hotel facilities and restaurant access to be unclear and, in some respects, misleading. We believed that the gym, spa and kids' club were facilities attached to Hotel Jakov, only to discover during our stay that they were located at neighbouring properties. We were also disappointed to find that, due to the low-season period covering part of our holiday, many onsite restaurants were either closed or operating reduced hours. Furthermore, neither the outdoor waterpark nor the inflatable aqua park was operating during our stay. We were lucky with the weather and the times when the school groups weren't around was lovely.

Absolutely brilliant place to stay if you want a nice and relaxing family holiday. Perfect location as it is on a resort site with plenty of activities to do as well as a little super market and food establishments scattered across the resort. Short walk to the beach and pool as well as the big waterpark which was fantastic. Great facilities and plenty of things To do. Highly recommend.

Excellent place for vacation for entire family. It has all for perfect vacation. I was in september this year but also previously and always was at highest level. Everything is briliant. It has new aquapark for children and inside that big spa for adults. I will recomend this to all my friends.

We stayed here at the end of August and it was fabulous! The hotel is lovely and the rooms are very clean, fresh and modern. Pillows and beds are so comfortable and shower amazing! The pool area was lovely. Always loads of available sun beds and towels available. The kids absolutely loved spending the day in the pool. Breakfast was amazing with something for everyone. Waffles with pistachio cream?? Count me in! The kids were very very happy with the options, as were the adults. Hotel staff all very friendly. The people on reception were all very helpful and knowledgeable. No complaints. The kids loved the games room! There are loungers on the beach that you have to pay for. We didn’t pay. We set up in the shade of the trees, which was absolutely fine. The water is crystal clear! Very beautiful. We played the mini golf 3 times and the kids loved it. Yes, it’s an additional cost and probably quite a lot but we enjoyed it. We ate out along the strip - Trattoria, Bongos, Tapas - the food was very very good. Same prices as back home so wasn’t really bothered. The price of the hotel is extremely reasonable so even adding food in top it was cheaper than most other places. We got a taxi into Šibenik, which is a lovely little town to visit and spend some time. The views from the top are breathtaking. Also got a taxi to Krka National Park! Reception recommended the entrance where you get a boat ride down to the waterfall included in the entry price. It’s slightly further and more in the taxi but 100% worth it. A must visit!!!! We caught the little train one day that runs up and down the strip. Not the cheapest but the kids loved it. We also went to the water park next door. Was a great way to spend the day and the kids had a great time. We only took part in a couple of the art activities for the kids. They also did the cocktail making and the pizza making. This was one of the highlights of their holiday! All in all, I would highly recommend this hotel for families. We had a lovely time and would definitely consider a return trip!
