Bluesun Afrodita

My/Our Holiday Opinion:

We were both quite apprehensive about going to Croatia and what to expect, as there was not much info on the hotel or many reviews, but this place certainly made Tucepi and Croatia a place to return to in the future!

Hotel:
The place is immaculate, all areas; pool, restaurant, reception, gardens, rooms, everything! It is so well presented and looked after. The rooms are above average, with satellite TV, mini bar etc.
I don't recommend paying for a 'sea view' as the trees are in the way in most rooms.
Pool was great, only concern was, there was no lifeguard. All the staff spoke English well, better than I can speak Croatian anyway! And they are so friendly.

Restaurant:
The food was nothing to write home about, but tasty. It was a little limited on variety. But it is so cheap to eat out in the town we didn't mind eating in there some nights, drinks are pricy though. The staff in the restaurant are very friendly and helpful. You get allocated a table for the week, and we got sat with another English couple luckily, but some people we spoke to were sat with foreign people who spoke no English.

Location:
Fab! You are 5 minutes walk from Tucepi town centre, lots of restaurants and 'tat' shops. The steps in the hotel take you onto the long promenade which goes from one end of the town to the other, 5 minutes walk the other way are a few really nice bars and clubs. The food, souvenirs etc are all SO cheap.
Beaches are very long, but pebbly, so take a lilo, or buy one for £3. But very clean, and water is crystal clear.
Bars we recommend: Batula, Havana and Coco.
Restaurants: Leonardo's terrace restaurant overlooking the marina (We had a gorgeous 3 course meal and large bottle of wine, and paid £25!!! You cannot fault it!

Excursions:
Mostar (in Bosnia) - Which got bombed in the 1993 war, a beautiful place and very interesting
White Water Rafting - BRILLIANT!

Recommend it for:
Young and old Couples &Families.
Not a huge nightlife, more people watching, so maybe not for people wanting to 'live it large'

Overall Evaluation:
Highly recommend
A****+++
