Bluesun Hotel Soline

Arrived around 10pm, by this stage dinner had finished but they provided plates of cold meat/salad which was nice. The room was a standard room with balcony, the room was spacious with a modern bathroom, cleaned each day to a high standard and cleaners would always greet you as you came out the room in the morning. The view from the balcony was poor, there was a large tree covering up the majority of what would have been a sea view, it also stopped light from getting into the room, we like to sit out and read when on holiday but couldn’t do this once. The food was plentiful and delicious, good variety with meats, fish and the pizzas were particularly tasty. Breakfast was the same each day but good choice of cooked, pastries, bread and cold meats - for British people - stay clear of the baked beans! Service was very good apart from one evening when nobody. And to our table to ask if we wanted drinks. Particular mention to Steffan and Filip, also the twin girls who appeared to be celebrities as people were asking to have their photos taken with them - maybe they haven’t seen identical twins before?! The spa was nice - beware as some like to bare all in there! We had a lovely massage on our last day. The gym looked well equipped but didn’t use it. The bar was very quiet while we were there, not sure if this was because of the time of year, they could do with providing a drink voucher to guests, this would entice them in and if others see that it’s busy I’m sure they would follow. The main bus stop to Split is up a very steep hill with lots of steps, just beware if mobility problems, took us about 20 mins and we’re quite quick. Brela is small town, lots closed when we went, worth a walk along the sea to the next town of Baška Voda as more going on there. The beaches themselves are beautiful, a lovely scenic walk can be had going the other way towards the award winning beach of Punta Rata. Overall a nice hotel, best thing probably the food and with a better view from the room and it could have been a 5.

Just returned from a wonderful stay at Hotel Soline. The hotel is in a great location on the beach . We had a standard double room with a sea view. Beds really comfy . Room clean and fresh with a great shower . Cleaned daily with fresh towels. We went half board . The food was great . Plenty of choices and a varied daily meat fish and vegetarian. Pizzas were really tasty . We had a couple of overcast days where we made good use of the swimming pool and spa which was free to guests . The staff were really helpful and informative and friendly . Brela is beautiful and relaxing although not a lot going on . We did a day trip to Split and got the bus up to Markaska . One evening there was a band playing at the marina which was quite good . I would definitely recommend this hotel .

So I’ve just recently got back from my 7th or 8th stay at soline brela I love it absolutely love it Soline is perfectly situated right on the beach at Brela. The quaint little town of Brela is perfect for me not to hustle and bustle, perfect relaxation indeed with a scattering of restaurants and the odd bar or two. Looking out from my hotel balcony onto the gorgeous Adriatic is lovely a real stunning view. The hotel has 2 bars and a swimming pool that goes inside as well as outside not the deepest pool but you have the ideally situated sea just outside. I always go the half board option which is breakfast and evening meal (dinner) it’s a buffet selection which I thoroughly enjoy the hotel has another restaurant as well if you want to choose from the menu I prefer the buffet. The staff absolutely make my stay amazing most of them remembering me from previous visits which is really nice, they work so so hard making my stay enjoyable and from what I can see everybody else’s as well always friendly polite with a warm and pleasant greeting, they all work so hard it’s a real credit to the hotel. I had a problem with my zip on my suitcase (baggage handlers) whilst asking reception for any nearby shops she insisted on getting the maintenance man to have a look for me and it was fixed very grateful indeed . I’ve been coming since 2018 often twice a year my only negative comments are the parking normally you can’t get outside the hotel BUT they have parking staff who will park your car in nearby car parks of the sister hotels and other car parks of the hotel. Then the price I know everything has gone up and I’m fully aware of everything but in my opinion there has been a real hike in price since I came 6 years ago, other than those slight things I can’t get enough of bluesun soline so much so that when they answer my email I’m back there in September

Hotel Soline has a lot to enjoy. It's situated perfectly along the seafront with a lovely shady walk around the bay one way, and plenty of restaurants and bars the other. Breakfast was a good choice of cooked and continental, and at dinner (served between 7 and 9pm) there was always a decent variety of meat, fish and vegetable dishes as well as salads and pizza to choose from and, although occasionally the odd dish wasn't as hot as it could be, overall we had no complaints. In general dishes were reasonably well labeled for those with food intolerances/allergies. The restaurant seating area is very big - if you choose to sit outside and enjoy the wonderful sunsets some of it is undercover. Inside it does lack a certain ambience because of the size. If you enjoy swimming the pool is excellent - a large section of it being indoors. There's also a kiddies pool. We didn't much like the sunbed situation - on busy days it was sometimes difficult to find a free bed and if you were lucky to secure one you felt a bit squashed in. Considering the size of the hotel the sunbed space is relatively small. We prefer not to join in the 'reserving sunbeds with towels before breakfast' game so we often found ourselves heading to the beach. On quieter days we did enjoy the pool area and towels are provided and exchanged as often as required. Reception staff were all very helpful and friendly as was our wine waiter (well both of them actually). Service was a bit slow at the bar sometimes because there was only ever one poor guy working hard, rushing round trying to serve and collect payment from everyone. Fine though if you're not in any hurry and we had a couple of good lunches there. We booked a superior double room which was spacious and had a great view over the sea from our balcony. The beds were comfortable (I slept like a log) and there were tea making facilities in the room. Great drench shower.

A fantastic hotel in a perfect location right on the sea front promenade, we had a superior double room with side sea view which actually was as good as a full sea view. The room was spotless and spacious with a free safe which was a bonus. Food was plentiful with a good choice for breakfast and dinner, a special mention to Anita, she was so friendly and always gave us a hug, in fact all the staff were very friendly and helpful, as is Croatia in general, a beautiful country. The hotel is situated in the small village of Brela but has a good selection of bars and shops along the promenade which stretches a good 10km, 3km to the left is the town of Baska Voda a 20 min walk but an easy paved flat walk, likewise to the right of the hotel another 7km easy flat paved walk, either way is stunning. If you are booking trips then the hotel reception has them all with a staffed booking desk most days. I strongly recommend the sky walk via Tuk Tuk, well worth the extra cost, also Krka National park, approx 1.5hrs by coach, bus stop is just a 100 yards up from hotel, Krka N.P is simply breathtaking with stunning waterfalls, paradise found here. Oh and not forgetting the magical sunsets. Thank you to all at Blue Sun Soline, our first visit to Croatia, it was magical, a stunning holiday. Faultless.

So I have stayed here many times and always had wonderful experiences hence why I keep going back there BUT today I checked in with reception as you always do always being polite smiling because I know most of them and never have any problems. I was given my key and off I went to a room. Now I book a particular style of room because it’s quite spacious and the view is always fantastic and I know by booking this particular room I will get what I want and what I pay for. After arriving back at reception I explain that sorry it’s not the room I booked it’s in fact smaller and again not what I paid for, to be snapped at by the receptionist and told we are fully booked, again politely I explain yes you maybe but I booked last October and booked a specific room type/size. She disappeared briefly came back and said again we haven’t got 1 of those rooms till tomorrow no sorry no empathy in her voice whatsoever and insisting that the room I have been given is the same size as what I have booked.!! No it isn’t hence why I don’t book this type of room.!! So she then says what do you want me to say apart from we are fully booked.!! Absolutely gobsmacked by this I again say but it’s smaller again she tells me it isn’t. So I’m now in a room that I never wanted albeit only till tomorrow and the other people on reception have assured me that I will be moved tomorrow BUT maybe A do t talk to customers like that because first impressions last B be a bit understanding because if that was you in this situation I’m sure you wouldn’t be that happy.!! The other lady who I later spoke to was very apologetic and understanding I know my stay will improve because I certainly won’t be talking to her again and the rest of the staff will make up for it because they are fantastic and work tirelessly to help customers and keep the place running how it should be. But what a great start to my holiday.!!
