We stayed 5 night, family of 5 in 2 bedroom. It's a perfect place if you want to just relax and enjoy the sea and the sun. I have put everything in points below to make it easier for the readers. Hopefully some of below information will be useful as the reviews greatly helped me and I chose this place based on reviews. 1.Apartment: clean, modern and new apartment 2.Swimming pool: 2 big swimming pool and plenty of chairs 3.Bar: at the top with amazing view, a nice place to have a coffee and other drinks 4. Sea : probably one of the best sea in the area, amazing for snorkeling. It's just in front of hotel with plenty of space. I recommend to buy rock shoe and snorkeling kit. 5. Animation : usefully if you have young kids, our kids loved it. 6. Supermarket : probably you would need to go to Medulin. Plodine it's just 10 minutes drive. They have one inside but very small and not much choices. 7. Game room: small but kids still loved it. 8. Parking: plenty of on site parking 9. Changing towel every 2 days. 10. Massage beside the pool, my wife she tried and she found it really good. 11. Family stay: the place is designed for families but at the same time you will find it peaceful Overall a very good experience and highly recommend. Glad that I chose this place. I would recommend del mar to take better pictures of their facilities such as game room, animation, sea, bar etc it was clear from pictures.

1. Restaurant : it took them 1.5 hour to prepare our pizza. We didn't go back after that experience 2. Staff : overall it's all good but I think there is language barrier and some are not well trained. Probably because the place is still new.

The location of the resort may seem a bit far away, but was actually perfect. It is very beautifully situated close to a nature reserve. The resort itself was very pleasant. The beach was small but nice (you do need beach/aqua shoes and be aware that beach/pool towels are not provided) and the pool area was perfect with lots of sun beds. Breakfast was good and offered a good selection and variety. The apartment was clean, spacious and well equipped with plenty of tableware, pots and pans etc. The beds were comfy albeit a bit on the hard side.

Smoking should not be allowed anywhere in the restaurant. I know it's not allowed inside, but as most people prefer to sit outside when the weather permits, everybody should be able to enjoy their breakfast, lunch or dinner in a smoke free environment. I wished the bar had more generous opening times and why not serve small dishes and snacks throughout the day?

The hotel has two great pools and a beach in the hotel area. Sunbeds included. Clean apartments. It’s a great area for relaxation if it weren’t for animation team playing loud music.

Loud music from the animation makes it a bit hard to read or listen to a book both on the balcony but also on the beach or in the pool area.

It was our second visit here. What change from the last visit: Navigation sign placed correctly, A/C on the corridor was finally always turned on - great. A/C in the apartment working well. Drying rack on balcony, terrace spacy, free parasols and loungers (beach as well). Cleaning every second day. Lidl, Plodine in the next village (3km). Apartment 35 m2 - big enough. Price for meal stayed the same - compared with last year. 2 pools clear and clean with warm water.

Parking fee in the garage 5 EUR/night, mattress so soft, access to the sea not very comfortable - rocks. Ice-cream price increased from 2 EUR to 2,50 EUR/scoop. Apartment door needs to be opened by harder push. Very noisy door during closing, especially at night.

We have chosen Residence Del Mar for family vacation. Traveled with 2 children and booked Deluxe 1 bedroom apartment. The size was good for 4 people, modern apartment with large balcony. The breakfast was nice, offered many options for adults and children. We did not have a problem to find a place on the beach or by the pool at any time. No need to reserve the spots. We have also booked parking garage what I would recommend as there is a lift from parking garage to the apartment what makes move in and move out comfortable.

Unfortunately we had to wait until 4PM to get the room key. Not a big deal, but if early check-in was possible I would consider it. For people that expect "night life" they need to go to Pula that is 10km away.

New and modern apart hotel, apartment was big and the kitchen had everything you need for cooking. All apartments have big balconies, we had a balcony with garden/pool view and it was nice. There are two big pools and each has a kids safe zone that was very convenient for us as we had a toddler. There are a lot of sun-beds around the pools and in the beach. The beach itself is rocky and not suitable for small kids. You need to wear special shoes to avoid troubles. In addition we enjoyed everyday kids animation, live music in the evenings and the gym.

The pillow was hard for me

Friendly staff Lovely apartment and pool area and a great location next to the sea

Food could have been better and disappointed not to have a super market on site as promised, not yet open.

Nice apartments. Corresponds to the description and photo on the website. All the staff are friendly and welcoming. The girls at the reception are friendly and communicative. Wonderful and delicious breakfasts. Waiters and hostesses at breakfast and dinner are always friendly and attentive. I especially liked the restaurant on the territory, where there was a large selection of food. Everyone could order whatever they wanted. Special thanks to the waiters Zoran and Mark for their friendliness and communication.

Good location if you have a car. It's about 20mins drive into Pula town centre and about 40 to Rovijn. There's 4 EV (electric vehicle) charging points (paid via card on the charger). There's underground parking but you don't need it as there's a huge outdoor parking space inside the hotel compound itself. There's a laundry shop, 6 euros for one load and dry.

Understaffed for the size of the hotel, especially the ala carte restaurant. one or two waiters at lunch or dinner is simply not enough for a more than 100 room hotel.

We really enjoyed our stay at Residence del Mar Emotion. The rooms were clean and well-equipped, the breakfast selection was excellent and the two pools and the beach were great for our two kids.

To be honest, it seemed like the staff have not received enough training. They were overall friendly, but lacking a little professionalism. It was moreover apparent that the hotel had just recently opened, as they were not completely done with the construction yet (an example: the bar wasn’t finished yet when we arrived). All in all these things were no big issues for us, though.
