Scopri il tuo soggiorno a Rab

Allow yourself more time than expected to get there. There is very little information on the website re parking, boat shuttle transfer & checkin & even after having rang and emailed ahead and then visited the Delfin Pier reception desk, we still ended up checking in way after we had intended as the information we were given turned out to be patchy and incomplete at best. You first need to go the the Maestra reception at Delfin pier with you car & cases & show your reservation to the staff. They will give you a ticket for display in your car and you will await the shuttle bus driver. I would advise waiting in your car as I waited in the air conditioned lobby with a drink as advised but the receptionist failed to notify that the driver had arrived (as she had said she would) and if I hadn't seen the car oark emptying out of the corner of my eye, I would have missed him leaving - I had to leave my drink, run to my car and race to catch up with the convoy lest I have to wait another 20 or so minutes for the next trip. You follow the shuttle bus to a car park about 5 mins drive away, park up (no shade) & jump back in the shuttle bus to be brought back to reception where you await your boat transfer. If this all goes seemlessly you could in theory be on the island within half an hour or so from initially parking up at the pier though I believe 45 - 120 minutes is a more realistic timeframe. The island is great. It has everything you would expect from a resort like this and secluded bays along the ajoining island offer a handy excape from the busier main island. Most bathing coves are sea entry from the rocks and the beaches (bar an artificial one on the central causeway which is sand up to the sealine) are pebbles. Clean clear water & plenty of fish across both islands. Breakfast was extensive & generally tasty but very poorly labelled which makes life very difficult for vegetarians, vegans or those with food allergies. Rooms were ok tho unfortunately there were no tea/coffee making facilities. After reading this in other reviews we brought a travel kettle. They were also a little tired with holes in the curtains, cobwebs in the shower & the air con was good but quite noisy. Balcony blinds, spare plug sockets & ample wardrobe space were pluses. Pools were clean and we managed to get loungers ok (tho this could have been luck). Towels are free to hotel guests (available from the pool bar) but incur additional costs if you wish to change them fro clean ones. There are loungers scattered all over the coves of both islands, tho the further from the hotel they are the more covered in bird poo they are. They don't appear to have anyone check on them or clean them which is a real shame. The grill on the second island was closed for refurb (July 2022) so come prepared with enough food and water if you plan to visit this more relaxed island for longer than a quick walk. Food at the pizza place was fine. Dinner at La Serra was great. The hourly taxi boats (7am

Pulizia spiaggia approssimativa Wi-Fi ottimo in struttura e spiaggia Parcheggio mancano i posti auto causa capacità limitata Cucina discreta qualità - gluten free and lactose free un problema la gestione - tabellini sono sbagliati Attività adulti inesistente e comunque avrei preferito qualche informazione dalla reception per attività entra struttura culturali nell’isola Acqua in stanza cambiata spesso grazie Biliardo stecche vecchie Personale reception + (Antonio molto gentile) Gazebo tu metti asciugamani la mattina torni dopo 10 minuti e trovi i tuoi asciugamani per terra e un cartello appena apparso con scritto “riservato” - in questi casi il cartello va scritto il giorno prima Interazione con clienti molto bassa in termini di qualità Nella spiaggia i lettini la mattina sempre occupati da altri e a distanza ravvicinata gli ombrelloni quindi sempre complicata la condivisione dell’ombra. Non si possono prenotare prima dell’arrivo. Siamo stati in vari Valamar questo è quello che ci è piaciuto di meno, difficile pensare che torneremo qui, ma l’isola è molto bella. Acqua di fronte alla spiaggia sempre sporca devi andare lontano per trovarla limpida Nessuna navetta per la cittadina Non ho visto mai discese per limitate capacità fisiche dalla doccia alla piscina interna ed esterna Ambiente e sostenibilità solo a parole Per tenere paddle tutto buttato in sottoscala Auto nel parcheggio in zona non permessa e dipendenti parcheggiano prendendo il posto dei clienti Area parcheggio per auto elettriche occupate da altre auto Come al solito bella vetrina ma quando vai dentro a vedere non vale i soldi che paghi Poche telecamere su aree comuni Bagni della spiaggia molto sporchi pur essendo del Valamar
