Girandella Family Hotel 4* Valamar Collection

"This is a lovely resort, we stayed at the adults only site, which is only a short walk to the beach and promanade of Rabac. There was a road train that you can use if you didn't want to walk, it runs from one end of the resort to the other end past all the restaurants and bars, this cost €3 each way. Our room was very nice which had a power shower. The room was cleaned daily. The staff at the restaurant were very friendly. The breakfast / brunch was excellent and you can go between 8AM and 2PM."

"We stayed for 2 weeks in Maro Suites as a family of 4. We were very fortunate as we were allocated a larger suite with 2 bathrooms, suitable for up to 6 which we really appreciated. Our 3 year old was able to play on the large balcony area and there was a clothes hanger too for drying. The balcony view was spectacular, beautiful trees, with the sea in the background. The apartment was spotless and very modern. Our bed was MASSIVE and super comfy. Our 3 year old LOVED the evening entertainment. The disco was brilliant. Staff made such an effort, some of them did a full 30 minute routine wearing the hotel themed character's outfit (Maro). The clown was very good. The comedian/wizard was good too (though we did see the same routine 3 times). All of the staff were very professional and hard working. The food in the buffet restaurant was fine and the views from the restaurant were spectacular. There were porters who collected our luggage on arrival and departure which was also really appreciated. One negative is that we were not able to leave our 7 months old baby in the baby club as staff said they would not be able to give her milk and if she fell asleep, they would have to call us to collect her after 15 minutes (otherwise there would have been a €25 per hour charge). I feel it would have worked better if the baby and kids club had a 2 hour reservation system and I would have been OK to pay a fee but not €25 per hour!! The kids club for ages 3+ also got really busy, especially when the weather wasn't too good. In my opinion a reservation system would have worked better. Our 3 Yr old was too clingy and we were unable to leave her at the kids club - with the unpredictability of the staffing and number of kids in attendance it would not have been a reliable option to drop our 3 Yr old off."

"Lovely hotel nice location very relaxed and chilled however the staff could be a bit more attentive and explain things more as it’s complex. We are all inclusive but that does not mean every bar in fact only one bar is all inclusive the rest you pay for makes no sense to us. You have to go up 3 floors from the beach to get a drink unless you want to pay. The all inclusive is not worth it so don’t bother better pay as you go."
