My husband and I stayed at the Rixos Libertas for one week at the end of October. When we arrived at the hotel we were amazed by the beautiful scenery and backdrop of the Adriatic coastline. The check in staff were friendly and the service extremely efficient. Within minutes of checking in we were sat at the Agora Terrace bar sipping a glass of white wine, eating a beautiful lunch and taking in the fantastic views.
We had booked a superior room and these all have sea views, well worth the upgrade. The room was painted white and was contemporary in design. The bathroom was all glass and this seemed to be a problem for some couples however this was not an issue for us as we could look out at the beautiful scenery whilst having a shower. The room was cleaned daily. I have to say that due to the fantastic view every morning this was one of the best rooms we have stayed in and I'm still thinking about it now.
The hotel facilities were of a high standard yet unfortunately we stayed out of season and therefore it was too cold to use the outdoor pool; however we did have a dip in the sea. The indoor pool was very clean and had again excellent views of the coastline.
We stayed on the All Inclusive package and this was a good deal as the alcoholic drinks were all branded makes including bacardi, Jack Daniels, cointreau etc. The food was excellent quality but limited in choice due to it being end of season and so few guests staying at the hotel. The waiter and bar service was excellent and some of the best we have ever experienced. The Croatian people in general are extremely friendly and down to earth; this also made the holiday special.
The hotel was very quiet but we did not mind as we would often get the bus to Dubrovnik old town after dinner. Dubrovnik old town is magical and would recommend it to anyone who has not travelled to Croatia before. Make sure you take a trip to Lokrum Island as this is also an enchanting place.
I would definately visit this hotel again but during the summer time. I would have given this hotel 5 stars yet due to the time we stayed some of the facilities were not available.
