Calanica Resort

The accommodation excels in cleanliness, offering well-appointed bungalows with kitchen facilities. Guests appreciate the superb breakfast and exceptional staff. Its fantastic location provides easy access to scenic beaches.

We are tough and demanding travellers and far too often we come home from our vacations feeling let down—even when the place has superbe reviews on TripAdvisor. But this time? We are more than delighted. We will definitely be back. Where do I start?
The place is stunning—no photo, not even the professional ones, is lying. Every little house has a gorgeous view. It is incredibly peaceful. Yes, there’s a railway line nearby, but even in the bungalows closest to it, you barely notice. The cottages are spaced out perfectly, so you get total privacy. They are spacious, enough room for two adults and two teens. The bathroom is not huge but it’s more than adequate. Cleanliness is a huge plus here. Everything is spotless, and housekeeping is done perfectly every single day. Getting to the sea is easy, with a boardwalk over the pebbles, so you don’t have to walk on stones. The rest is sandy and the beach is tucked away in creek where the occasional yacht drops anchor. Most of the time, it is nearly empty. Perfect. No need to rush for a sunbed; there was always space and no one ever left their things to “reserve” a spot if they were gone for a while. The real highlight? The staff. We have never had such a positive experience. We arrived without our luggage (it didn’t make our flight), but everyone went out of their way to help. They even arranged a doctor’s appointment quickly so we could get the medication we needed. We arrived late in the evening, after the restaurant had closed, but they had prepared a cold plate and a bottle of wine for us. If you miss breakfast (which ends a bit early at 9:30), the staff is happy to whip up a plate of pastries or something similar. In short: it was perfect, and we’ll be back. There is also a pool (though no one used it during our stay) plus a mini football pitch and tennis court. There are a few good restaurants nearby, and it is a 20-minute walk into town. Any downsides?
The safe is quite small (you can’t fit a laptop in it).
No coffee machine in the room.
We had half-board and while the restaurant food was good, it did not quite live up to the rest of the experience. You choose from four starters and mains each morning and decide whether you want lunch or dinner. That said, they are happy to adjust the menu if there is nothing you like or for the kids. All in all, a fantastic stay. We cannot wait to return! Thank you everybody from Calanica

From the second we arrived at the resort the entire staff went above and beyond to make sure that our trip was perfect. From the enchanting views that come with every room at the resort to the amazing private bay and the food it truly felt like I was in paradise. I want to give a special shout out to Matteo who really went above and beyond to make sure that my girlfriend and I not only never went hungry (these people will not let you out of their sight if they think you’re famished) to making sure that we had a full itinerary he was truly a special treat on top of a perfect stay. I 100% recommend the resort to anyone looking to really have an escape from the rest of the world.
