“2 Star would be unfair”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 September 2011

people found this review helpful

The resort is nice enough and we did have a waterfront unit. The food was uninspiring but sunbstantial. No complaints about the staff. The unit we had seemed tired and needed an upgrade. This is an RCI proiperty but that us not conspicuous. We stayed here for the location - ferry to Bol erasly in the morning.

“In serious need of a complete update...”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 July 2011
3
people found this review helpful

List of improvements (not wasting our time so look at pictures an judge for your self.

- No Air condition!! (old fans on floor)
- Completely outdated furnitures, some of them broken
- Stains from leaking roof/ceiling (maybe not the best for people with allergies...)
- Stop in bathroom/shower
- food, no comments (even though very low price - not worth it)
- A lot of stairs, take care

All in all the same experiance as when we stayed in Bulgaria back in 1999.

On the positive side the city of Jelsa is very nice and is close to excursions with boat e.g. Bol.

“Very nice, but a lot of space for improvement”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 July 2011

people found this review helpful

Fontana is a decent place to stay, not very high level of service, you are pretty much on your own, but it is clean, and staff is helpful. Dinner in the hotel is nice, but local restaurants are also very good. Our room had a small kitchen, decently equipped so we were able to cook.
Reception is all the way up the hill, not very nice if you travel with kids and lots of bags. They will help you with luggage if you ask them.
If you are near the sea, like we were, you will enjoy the beautiful view, BUT, it may come with unexpected price- beaches are public, so hotel has no authority over teens who gather late at night and make quite a noise. All you can do is call a reception, and then they will call police. I did hope for more sleep, after all, it was vacation.
Hotel has two pools, one for kids and one for adults, but they are both very small. After all, you do have sea, and extremely nice beaches every 100 meters. Everybody can find their favourite (stones, pebbles, sand). For those travelling with kids, hotel doesn't have any special activities for them, and also, no laundry service. For that you are on your own.
Overall: I really enjoyed our vacation in Jelsa; beautiful island and charming little town, amazing smell of the sea, pine trees and lavanda. It is not crowded with people, so you can really enjoy your time. People are warm and ready to help. You absolutely must try some of the local products (example, wine Plavac, olive oil, tomatoes and melons). Don't forget to buy small bags stuffed with dry lavanda. And, do visit local restaurant "Murvica". Its hidden behind the church, I am sure somebody will show you the way.

Room Tip: Close to the sea may mean too much noise from teens gathering on the beach.

“Jelsa is beautiful but the apartments are awful.”
1 of 5 stars Reviewed 25 June 2011

It was like living on a council estate for a week. Will never go back to the apartments, but Jelsa is a beautiful little harbour. The people were surly and not very friendly. It was a maze of horrible apartments and too many stairs. The reception area is a joke. It is a hut and most of the staff were unhelpful. Beware of using toilets in the restaurants, if you do not eat in it, they charge for the use.

“Excellent location, excellent apartment”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 21 June 2011

people found this review helpful

The hotel is located near the harbor (10 minutes walk) and on a hill...
So the new apartments are on the top as well as the reception. Parking space is there...
Tip: the apartments and rooms near the beach (down the hill) are the oldest, and there is a big difference in quality.... The modern rooms and apartments are called deluxe.
Staff was extremely helpful, they even prepared lunch for us at 4pm...
