Villas Arausana & Antonina

The staff at reception were friendly, let us check in early too which is great. Our room was lovely and clean with good view of pool and sea. Breakfast was good but could do with a bit more variation that’s all. Location is great, right by the beach with lots of restaurants nearby. 1 star lost as on multiple occasions we had staff walk into our hotel room unannounced. Once whilst asleep and other late morning, firstly we had a do not disturb on the door and secondly its completely unacceptable to walk into a guests room especially without knocking. Overall a good hotel but sort the guest privacy out!

It's a nice hotel in a great location (10 min stroll to lovely town centre), with a few areas that let it down. It's clean, but carpets really should go. Great weather, so needed the aircon on overnight but then needed a cover. a king size bed with a double duvet cover isn't ideal. Basic toiletries in room (no shower cap, shampoo, etc). Paid extra for a sea view, which was 90% obscured by huge trees, 10% of sea view visible when looking hard to the left! Safe is small. No pool towels! I emailed ahead to ask this, unhelpful response telling me to ring the hotel. No parasols! You have to choose between sunbeds in strong sun or in total shade under the trees. Sunbeds in the sun were mostly taken / reserved. Parasols would be really great. Breakfast was fab with amazing views. Had a couple of lunches at the hotel bar, food very good. had a couple of milkshakes (cherry and hazelnut) which tasted of just milk. No decaff coffee available at breakfast. but I had taken my own. Worse thing? We had a late flight home, 22:30.. no shower available once you've checked out at 10:00 (the in-room guide said 11:00, and we were told off!). This is really unacceptable. Everyone needs a shower after hanging around all day. I would return but a disappointing sea view option, they do need parasols, and they need shower availability before you head for the airport.

Very poor quality hotel, would say at the most a 2 star, no way is it 4 star. The facilities are basic, there were stains on carpets, stains on chairs in reception area and in the outside bar area; mould in the shower area. We were breakfast and dinner, very limited choice, buffet sat outside, uncovered. Regularly ran out of items at breakfast. Vodice is nice but would not recommend this hotel.

Rooms need to be updated asap. Dirty walls and ceilings, old dirty carpet, where you wouldn’t want to step on. We didn’t feel comfortable in the room. Reception staff was polite and welcoming at all. We have to mention the staff in the restaurant was really polite and helpful. Breakfast and lunch both were really good and based on the room ways better than we expected.

Very good location. Great pool. Breakfast was great with lots of choice. The only downside was inappropriately dressed guests at breakfast time. A dress code should be enforced during meal times.
