I never reviewed a hotel before. But this one is worth it.
Last week my family and I took a mini-vacation. We visited Poreč and we stayed in Hotel Laguna Molindrio, located in Zelena Laguna.
We had an incredible experience and we really enjoyed our time there. The 4 days went by extremely quickly and I wouldn’t mind spending an entire month there. It really was that good.
I’m going to break this review down into sections so it’s easier to read. Enjoy.
Room:
The room was something we were quite happy about. It was spacious, enough for 3 people to sleep and enjoy a movie before bed.
I didn’t take any pictures, because… Well, we made a mess quite quickly. Haha
The beds were comfortable and nice to sleep in, the thermostat worked great. The flat screen tv was also another plus, but that’s to be expected. The room was quite nice and there wasn’t anything wrong with it, in fact, we were quite satisfied with our stay.
Staff:
This is where this hotel really shines. Everyone in this hotel is extremely nice, friendly, caring and happy. From the moment you walk to the reception for the check-in, to the moment you check out. Every single employee is extremely nice.Even the cleaners always had a nice welcoming smile on their face and were happy to help out.
Every single person in the hotel is trying to make your stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible and you can really feel that. It reminded me of when I was in Sharm El Sheikh last year.
That was one of my favourite trips, because of the staff. We had the exact same experience here in Laguna Molindrio. The staff gets 5 stars!
Food (@phoneinf will love this) :
Oh my god, the food. I don’t even know where to begin.
My family and I aren’t really picky eaters. All we care about is that the food is tasty, looks nice and is fresh. Without a doubt, the restaurant in Hotel Laguna Molindrio achieved all of those.
One thing we especially loved is the fact that the restaurant has chefs who cook in front of you, which means that the food is always fresh. That doesn’t happen often in hotels and we were extremely happy about that. Unfortunately, the pizza was only fresh on our last day though.
We only had breakfast and dinner included at our hotel, but to be honest that’s all we really ate, along with some snack throughout the day.
We ate so much for breakfast and dinner that we didn’t even feel hungry throughout the day. I’m telling you, it was that delicious.
For breakfast, you were able to select anything from the wide ranges of pastries, eggs, ham, bacon. Different kinds of cereals, a lot of fruit. Many kinds of bread, sandwiches, salads. Everything.
For dinner, there were different kinds of foods every single evening, which we really liked. Some hotels think their guests like eating the same kinds of foods for a week, believe it or not. But Laguna Molindrio had that covered, the food was excellent.
Wellness:
In my opinion, this is the 2nd best part of staying in Laguna Molindrio. The food being 1st of course. 😉
In wellness, you’ll be able to enjoy 3 saunas, which hold about 9-10 people in total. As well as a jacuzzi which is also quite enjoyable.
Luckily the Hotel was mostly empty on the first 3 days, but on our last day, we had to wait for about an hour in order to get in the wellness. It’s a big hotel, but the wellness only holds 10 people. No worries though. I guess you just need to reserve in advance.
Fitness:
There’s also a tiny gym in the hotel, big enough for about 5 people to get a solid workout in. You have about 5 machines, 3 cardio machines and weights. Probably one of the best gyms you’ll find in a hotel here in Poreč.
Pool:
This one caught us by surprise since we weren’t expecting it. The hotel also has a covered pool, the water was warm and enjoyable. It was definitely nice to go for a swim in the AM. In fact, that’s what we did on most days. We went to the pool after breakfast in the AM and visited the wellness in the PM since it opens at 2 PM. (unfortunately.) The pool was good and nice. The only thing that bothered me was the ever dripping water from the ceiling.
Overall:
This is probably one of the top 5 hotels I’ve ever stayed at in my entire life. 95% of the things were absolutely perfect. We had a very relaxing stay and we enjoyed the experience very much.
Unfortunately, on the last night, we were woken up by loud knocking and shouting on our door, which lasted for about 45 minutes. A soccer team got drunk, I presume.
A call to the reception sorted it out in about 10 minutes, again excellent staff.
I was also really impressed by hotel’s wifi. It worked, EVERYWHERE. It was really reliable and I absolutely loved it, we all did. Other hotels should take notes, amazing work Laguna Molindrio!
However, I do have one request. Please make your towels a little bit softer, it was one of the only things that bothered me. 😉
Thanks for reading. I hope you enjoyed the post. If you’re in Poreč, don’t forget to visit Laguna Molindrio and let me know what you think. I certainly hope I get to visit the hotel again in the future. It was awesome.
Until next time,
Benjamin 🙂
