Aminess Vival Lišanj Family Hotel

The hotel is nice just for the family that does have small children, so they can leave the kids in the playground, the fact that animation team is poor, have no animation after 8.. they close everything for the kids ao you can go just to sleep ... The only thing that is good ist the food.. but the fact that you have just one hour to eat lunch. I would not go ever again to that hotel.. oohh almost forgotten,that the cleaning ladies have knocked ten minutes at 7 that is time yo clean, so you pay, hang at the door do not disturb ticket 🎫 and they still keep knocking untill the whole family is awake. So bee my guest they wouldn't see us again, ohhh and that you need to go out from the hotel to enter the sauna and wellness,where the kids and the families uses the relaxing pool for swimming.. so no peace at all..

We stayed at the hotel for 7 days with a baby aged 1 year and 10 months. The hotel is nice and tidy, the balls at the entrance are a real treat for children. The rooms are spacious and tidy, the pools are clean and there are enough sun loungers. The beach is close. The bed is extremely comfortable and the view is beautiful. The food is plentiful (we had all inclusive light, which includes food and drinks, wine and beer during meals) and very tasty, but after a few days you realize that the same dishes are repeated (the last two days there was no variety of fruit, for example, there were no bananas). A very large number of high chairs for small children. Everyone is very kind, the hotel is ideal for slightly older children, the animators are excellent. However, the cleanliness of the room is by no means at the level of a 4-star hotel. Our room was cleaned every other day, we replaced the beach towels once after I asked the gentlemen in the hallway. Cleaning the room was limited to making the bed, dirty dishes, etc. They did not touch or clean the toilet. The balcony was cleaned once in 7 days. The child pulled dust and dirt out of the holes. Also, the hotel is by no means suitable for baby strollers. to get to any pool you have to go down stairs, narrow metal stairs, which are not even suitable if you are carrying a baby, let alone for a stroller (p.s. you can go through the restaurant and exit the restaurant, go down to the beach and reach the pool with only one small step). around the pool is quite untidy, a lot of dirt and garbage that doesn't get out of the way, so it becomes slippery and gets stuck in children's hands. The sunbeds on the beach are paid for by hotel guests, so they are empty. entering the sea is also unsuitable for children, because the steps are not cleaned of grass and algae, so they are very slippery. The restaurant lacks dishes for children, considering that it is a children's hotel, it would be fine if there were the same. All in all, the hotel may deserve a 4-star rating, but not a family hotel.

We picked the hotel because it was declared as kids friendly and guess what it was kids friendly - huge playroom, kids klub and kids movie theatre. The little one had Wonderful time as well as me and my wife because the hotel is adults friendly too thanks to the great staff - special thanks goes to the receptionists who were always smiling and helpful - Thanks Ivana, Laura, Sanda and Nikša. There was also very nice hotel manager (unfortunately didn't copy down his name) who would greet us every single time we showed up for meal. The quality of food in a form of a rich buffet was outstanding - kudos to the hotel chefs. I'm sure, we're coming back.

On our travels to Italy we decided to divert for a few days and take a short holiday in Croatia. We found this hotel as we were searching for reservations while still in the US. Overall it was a very good stay. Hotel was clean and all meals were included. While the meals were adequate we ventured out into town for dinner each night. One great place was San Mariano. It was a short walk along the beach. It's an outdoor restaurant with great food and a great view. Staff was very friendly but we want to give huge shoutouts to Randy as he took care of us at the beach and Petar at the pool bar. He was friendly and helpful. This hotel is far way from home for us but we felt comfortable and welcomed. Thank you for a memorable stay. Our daughter cried on our last night because she didn’t want to leave.

Absolute disgrace of a hotel and certain staff members. Due to their mistake in the reservation system, two nights were booked starting from Thursday instead of Friday as selected in the app. Upon arriving at the reception on Friday, not only was the employee visibly irritated, but also extremely rude. There was no available room because, according to them, we didn't show up the day before, which was when our reservation was made. However, they did manage to find a room with the condition that we must check out the next day, since two nights were reserved, and one night was already missed. Considering our original plan was to stay until Sunday, we requested a change to reflect our initial booking, from Friday to Sunday. However, they continued to insist that the mistake was ours, and in the end, we ended up paying for three nights with full board, even though we only used two. After complaining via email, we received a response stating once again that the mistake was ours and that they were not able to "reduce" the price, which was not even what we were asking for. We simply wanted to settle our stay in the arrangement that we actually used, not an additional day they made up due to THEIR mistake in the system. After we paid and left the hotel, there was no further response to our email - very professional, I must add! I sincerely hope that this review helps at least one person to avoid this hotel. To reiterate, ABSOLUTE ZERO, a classic Croatian style of trying to extract extra money. I hope you'll put it to good use.

Had no idea such a family hotel existed. Best part was the kid’s activities and the meals options. So sad we only had one day there.
