“Nice place for 1 week”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 September 2011

We spent a week there in the peak season and it never felt to crowded. Room was not so modern, and the bathroom with shower was not so cosy... but the nice big terrasse with a view on the ocean was realy nice !
THere was not so much animation at night... and there is not much around, but when you drive 30' you get to sme nice villages.
THe beach was nice (but rocky...), and what we prefered is the tennis - many courts available in a very good state (and not really expensive)
Regarding food, buffet was good but after 5 days you start to get bored to have the same type of food...

It was a nice stay overall

Wonderful holliday !!!
This is the way a family holliday is suppose to be ! Great pools, great beach, wonderful food. Fantastic entertainment.
One night there was a "Gala dinner" by the pool, the desserts were accompanied by small fireworks, then the Show began, an what a show !!! Everthing wrapped up with a fireworks that i never seen anything like !!!
Me and my wife, just stared at each other and smiled.....
I travelled much, but this Valamar Club Tamaris is the no:1

But, lets keep it i secret, so it still can be this "quiet "oasis and "second home" for all of us who adore Croatia !

“Super place for family holiday”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 2 August 2011

We've spent there 7 days and we really enjoyed every moment! Great place for families - nice pools, close to good beach, lot's of entertainment fore everyone. Fantastic food choice, you can eat at the main restaurant where they serve really tasty and big choice of food, or you can switch to a small more quiet restaurants - Istrian or Fish - free of charge! Very nice staff, engaged, helpful. Rooms clean but little basic, however good enough for a vacation destination. Highly recommended!

“Great family holiday”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 July 2011

Valamar club tamaris in porec is great vote for family, or for young people, who wants to spend holiday with lot of activities - for children there is unbelievable daily programm in maro club - realy good oportunity for english, german ,russian or italian speaking family - most of the visitors are those nations.
Hotel provides excellent service - room has been cleaned every day, with daily possibility of towel changing.We had family room standard, which can give 4 members family good oportunity to have enough place.Also very interesting is the possibility to change big hotel restaurant to istrian taverna, where meal and drinks are also included, only you have to do reservation - but it is worth to do this, at least 2 times a week to have dinner in pleasant atmosfhere ( dont want to say in the restaurant it was not pleasant, but lot of people, nor in the taverna)
Only one thing I was a bit disapointed was the beach - was not so clean to be the blue flag, as mentioned on web site of the hotel - but it was nothing so bad, so i would say never more - I am sure we will come back again

Dear Knuspi,

I'd like to thank you for choosing Valamr Club Tamaris as your holiday destination and for writing us you precious review. All our guests' comments are of great importance to us, as they point out the areas we can still improve. I'm glad you liked the various programs that our Maro (kids) Club offers for 4 different age groups... as well as the possibility of dining in the 2 thematic restaurants (fine dining grill&fish and traditional istrian).
As regarding the beach, I'm glad to inform you that we installed additional multiple trash cans and smoking poles all along the 1 km gravel beach, and we intensified the collection of seaweed and algea from 1 to 3 times a day.
I'm pleased to inform you, as well, that the weekly sampling of the marine watre quality as of Jully is conducted from the Valamar Club Tamairs beach, and it is confirming a constant excelent water quality of the area.
I'm using this opportunity to thank you once again for choosing our property as your holiday destination and hope to have the oportunity to welcome you at Lanterna again.
Kind regards,

“Great for family with kids, but very crowded due to the big no. of rooms”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 31 January 2011
2
people found this review helpful

The hotel is very nice, refurbished but with to many rooms, therefore it is very busy during lunch or dinner. The hotel offers quite a lot of sports opportunities incl. animation for different sports. We have been there already the 3rd time, but it was the first time during August. The other two times it was in September and it was much better, during September, as it is not that crowded. Food in the restaurant is very good, but we recommend to use the two other options you have, by going down to the seaside and have a dinner with a set menu (changes every day) or using the "cantina" also with a set menu per day, but you need to book a table upfront for those two options.
