Meneghetti Wine Hotel and Winery - Relais & Chateaux

We had such high hopes for this trip, given the massive cost, and the past reviews and website blurb. But...I don't know who writes the reviews before, but it was absolutely nothing like what was sold. We're pretty well travelled, and have been around the block on all standards of location and trip types. I'll try and keep this short, because I could really go on, but aside from 1 or 2 staff members, who were pretty ice (new, I think), the vibe here is that of being just another mark. Stand by to be fleeced, and treated pretty crappily by a team that is argumentative, passive aggressive, inattentive, and constantly badgering for tips. I would suggest saving your money and disappointment, and going on a cheap all inclusive trip to Ibiza, Lanzarote, or Turkey or somewhere. All the old classic grift tricks, of selling tap water as bottled, recommendations only to places where they are clearly getting a cut, trying to rip us off with the transport by putting it on a clock at 10 cents a second (yes...you heard right...a euro every 1.5 minutes), right up to the last, where they claimed at checkout that we hadn't paid, and demanded the payment again full. After 40 minutes of endless calls, being talked to like criminals, and basically trying to wear us down to pay again, we finally got away. This is not a high end resort. This is not within a million miles of a high end resort. I gave 2 stars because Croatia and Istria itself is beautiful, and I definitely recommend it, but not in this place.

Before dinner we visited the hotel's winery and added wine tasting, the place is beautiful but the wine served was not amazing, you can skip the wine tasting and enjoy quality white and red wine in the restaurant. The wine served at the tasting was mediocre, lots of white and vibrant, not serious and not for wine lovers. On the other hand the restaurant was excellent, the staff service minded and the place is really lovely and very reminiscent of Tuscany. The place is relatively expensive compared to Croatia, suitable to celebrate a special event

We had a lovely stay in this very refined establishment. It gives the air of being much older than it is, and the service was terrific. We had a spacious suite in the old building, which we enjoyed except that our room overlooked the patio and dining area, which was quite noisy at times.

This is for a review of their wine room. We had the wine tasting with food pairing. It was a great experience and grounds are beautiful. Great service even though they were very busy. My husband can’t have lactose and without even asking, they brought out a neat platter at no charge to supplement the good pairing. More than enough food and lunch was r necessary. If you purchase a bottle to go, prices are discounted. A nice way to spend a few hours.

What a wonderful oasis this vineyard is, full of nature, luxury and great details! From the security personnel to the sommelier, everyone plays his role to make you happy and enjoyable. The wines are superb, the food world class, we will be back for sure!

From the moment we parked our car we were given amazing service from the staff at hotel. Smoth and easy chek in with a litlle history tour of this amzing property. Nestled between vineyard and the seaside this property is marvelous, spacious and decorated with taste. Every litlle detail is classy and with style. Our room was large with huge bed, and huge bathrom with all the necessities you might need for your stay. It has been cleaned and maintended perfectly, with excellent houskeeper keen to help at any times. We loved pools and sun beds, and apecially the wellnes centar, which for one Saturday morning was just ours so we enyojed imensly. Breakfast is a la carte with variety of options which is served by attentive staff. We have adored our breakfast waitress Lucija, she tended to our whishes with smile and efficiency specially with litlle girl who was amazed by yummi waffles and freshly squeezed juices. The setting of the hotel is idyllic with perfectly groomed grass and trees and it is maintained perfectly. We have enjoyes ourselves immensly and be sure to go back any time soon. All beeing said, service is beyond expectation, staff are soo frendly and attentive soo they deserve special thank you.

Excellent spot. Everything stood out as exceptional. Beautiful location, excellent service, delicious food. The entire staff was so very friendly. The wine is just flawless, absolutely wonderful. Will definitely be coming back for another stay.
