“Not Good!!!”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 30 August 2006

people found this review helpful

love the idea of getting away from England and immerse myself and my family in new cultures, however, if you are looking for a good fun family holiday where you will meet other English people with kids then Do not go to this hotel. The hotel was in a bit of a state, they have recently upgraded some of the rooms, this was the only positive thing I could take away. The rest of the hotel is in a bad state, the gardens need attention, a gardener would help!!! There is litter all over the place. The main swimming pool is far too deep for young kids, the kids swimming pool needs painting as all the paint has pealed off. The third pool is very cold... They play Euro music i.e. Crap, all day and try to organise some kind of dancing around the pool??? The hotel has a high % of German, Russian, Italian and Spanish guests, about 98%. Unfortunately they seem to be extremely rude and have no idea how to respect other people. (Excluding the Italian's, they were very nice) The food is OK, however the 2 x restaurants have the same menu and it is like feeding time at the zoo. The all inclusive option actually translates to watered down beer, wine that tastes like vinegar, choice of Red or White out of a tap, and a very limited amount of the most disgusting syrup type spirits i.e. NO branded spirits… also things like ice-cream at the pool bar are not part of the all inclusive package, none of the bars at the beach are included as they are owned by the hotel owners son and that’s not part of the hotel!!! WHAT!!!!
This holiday, for a week cost me £2500 for a family of x 4, 2 x adults and 2 x kids under x 7… I was expecting good value for money and was extremely disappointed… My recommendation would be to avoid this hotel at all costs!!
The other thing is that Supetar is the fishing village, about 600mtrs from the hotel, this is a beautiful village, and could be fantastic… however, it seems that someone has decided to move the fun fair in.. They have bumper cars and slot machines and market type gift shops selling crap, they have trampolines and fruit machines… basically, in my opinion it is ruining what could be a beautiful place, it is attracting the wrong kind of people to the area and I have no intention of ever going back again… Croatia is a beautiful country… they are ruining it by not giving any level of quality… If you deliver quality then you get recommendations and you also get people coming back time and time again!!!

I just hope this helps people make their decision… Good luck!!!

“Modern Hotel, Relaxing and enjoyable!”

We have just returned from our holiday in Croatia, on the island of Brac.

We were anxious about the hotel as we had booked a late deal through Thomson, and it was allocation on arrival. To our great surprise we arrived at the Iberostar (Hotel Kaktus) reception to be greeted by friendly staff who immediatley allocated our room. They even took the time to personaly direct us to our room. When we opened the door we found a clean, modern and fresh room, with a door to our private balcony. It was almost as if it had never been slept in.

Our room had views of the sea and pool area. Also on the resort was a wellness centre (which could be used at a small extra charge for the day), with gym, sauna and in-door pool, a pool bar, a larger bar inside the reception area with comfy lounging areas, and the restaurant 'More'. For tennis fans, they also have clay tennis courts available for a small charge.

We arrived at lunch time so we asked at reception where we could find something to eat. Unfortunately they do not offer anything outside of their restaurant hours but the receptionist was able to direct us to a local super market just 5 mins walk away.

The restaurant serves a buffet style meal, but also has meat freshly cooked by the chef on request. The food was fantastic, and especially the deserts!

We had a great time at this resort with its friendly staff and 4 star service, and would highly recommend it to others.

Tips:-
Go to dinner in the restaurant between 6 and 7pm to get a good seat.
If you are half-board and will be staying in the resort for the day, upgrade to all-inclusive for about 10 UK pounds (includes lunch, afternoon tea, tennis courts, and selected wine, beer, coffee, tea and spirits from the bars and in the restaurant.)
The Supermarket is 5 mins walk left from the main entrance of the resort.
Walk 15 mins into Supetar for more shops, restaurants, bars, ferry to Split and bus connections.
