Carine Hotel Park

As a British couple in our early thirties we were apprehensive after reading some reviews, however, our stay was pleasant and enjoyable overall. Pros: rooms were very clean and modern, waterfall shower, good size overall. The decor of the hotel was also nice, and spacious. The drinks (beer and white/rose/red wine) were on tap for you to pour from 10am and wine glasses/330ml Coca Cola glasses are available to use. There was plenty of food and it was replenished often. The staff were mostly friendly. There was entertainment on at night (live singers or music playing), and some entertainment during the day for children. The hotel has a private beach, which was a good size so you don’t need to fight for a sun bed at any time. The beach also offers free paddle boards to use. The hotel has an excursion provider and the prices are reasonable - the excursions change day by day so i recommend checking these out as soon as you arrive. On each floor there was a water fountain with cold, filtered water so you could fill up any bottles. They provide you with a jug in the rooms too for this purpose. If you spend a bit extra for a sea view room, the views onto the bay are just amazing - I would recommend this. Cons: the food, though a fair selection, was not always of a good quality. Very average pasta/meat/veg dishes. On most days the meat dishes were very overcooked, and the pasta was quite bland. Having said that, they do have a whole array of seasoning to add to dishes which I have never seen before, and my partner commented that one particular lamb dish was very good, so I would say ‘hit and miss’. There wasn’t much variety between the food served at lunch and at dinner. Be prepared to queue as the actual hot food area was relatively small, and there are a lot of guests. There is a terrace for drinks only but I think this could be nicer, it is just the same standard basic chairs/table but maybe a sofa or two would be nice to include, which would improve the feel overall. The cocktails included with all inclusive were mostly undrinkable. I would recommend the Carine Hotel cocktail or a pina colada - they have a machine which makes the cocktails in a second, but the spirits used are very low quality, which is a shame. The beach does not have sand, only gravel, including into the water too so make sure to bring sea shoes (they can be bought at the hotel gift shop for €10 too!). The indoor pool is fine, the outdoor pool is small and used mainly by children. The aircon in our room, while it worked, felt more like a fan. At night, there would be one cool area (at the end of the bed), and everywhere else was hot. I struggled to sleep well due to this but I accept it could be worse. Location wise; there is really not much about in walking distance at all. There is a ***** along the front with a few nice restaurants/cafes (around 4 - Bura was nice), and a small shop approx 10 min walk away, but other than that, we struggled. Most of the ‘main attractions’ are o

The good parts: The location of the hotel and surroundings of Montenegro were gorgeous. The view of the mountains and the bay from our room and the hotel itself were very picturesque. The room was a good size, bright and airy with a balcony. The sauna and steam rooms were lovely and the hot tubs over the bay were nice too (even if one was a bit cold). I had a massage and the masseuse was lovely and the massage itself was very relaxing and great value for money. The bad parts: The room came with a partially made bed. There was only a flat sheet on top of a bare mattress. A duvet cover was left folded on the bed but we had to make it. When refreshed the bed was not remade only fresh towels placed on it. We spilt something on the sheet and it was not replaced for the rest of our stay. Once we had a do not disturb sign on the door which was ignored at 8am. This woke us up when staff continually knocked only to hand us an envelope which was not urgent. The food was cold, we tried different meal times/waiting for fresh food to replenish and it was still cold. When we raised it as a concern, we were told there was a microwave if we wanted to heat it up. (unacceptable for a 4* hotel). When we complained the staff insinuated I was lying and that it was our problem. The cocktails were at times undrinkable, some food was not "all inclusive" and was greatly restricted. Snack bar was stale pastries left over from breakfast. Entertainment was all geared towards french speakers. €20 deposit for a towel at an all inclusive stay was excessive.

Carine Hotel Park is located in a quite village of Bijela in a beautiful Bay of Kotor. Hotel has a wide private beach with enough sunbeds to meet the requirement of its guests. This is very convenient as you don't have to wake up early morning and run to reserve a spot on the beach. Hotel is very well maintained, clean and the staff is great. One in particular I would have to mention and this is Jovan that works in a restaurant, helpful and friendly he really made as feel welcomed. Food and drinks are overall good but have space for improvement, coffee should definitely be better. Generally, hotel is a great choice if you are planning on coming to Bay of Kotor. Big recommendation from my side.

Beautiful hotel, friendly staff, excellent food. The whole concept is perfect. The bay is beautiful. A real find for my family, it will be our favorite destination... 😃 The sea smells and feels just right. Beautiful terraces and balconies. Praise for grape brandy - a must try.

Like others have said , if you’re English I don’t think this hotel would be for you. Let’s start with the positives , hotel its self is lovely , very clean , with a lovely airy feel. One member of staff Sandra ( on the front desk was amazing and very helpful ) no other member of staff interacted with us. Food isn’t what I would call great , it’s ok , meat very chewy and overcooked , drinks are really bad , the Mojito wasn’t drinkable , wine and beer watered down but that said the wine is drinkable. It’s all self service from a tap. Location is good , lots of sunbeds. We paid for all inclusive so were disappointed as we ate out all the time. There’s some lovely local restaurants. If you want a base and don’t go all inclusive then this hotel is fine as long as you don’t mind being the only brits and not playing any of the entertainment,

I recommend staying in this hotel! Very friendly staff, everything is nearby, the food is delicious and there are many dishes on offer. If you came with children, this is the right place for you! The beach is big and tidy! 👍 We will come again!
