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.

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
