Hôtel Ivan - Amadria Park

We absolutely loved this hotel. The buffet breakfast was delicious, beautiful cakes, pastries, prsut cut fresh, freshly baked bread. Loved the buffet dinner here overlooking the balcony. Great customer service. It was my daughter’s 8th birthday and they arranged for a cake to be delivered to our room. I think the servers name was Marko if I can recall correctly. Much appreciated. The saltwater pool area was beautiful, the kids loved it. Good options nearby to eat- Dalmatian etho village is a must try for gourmet traditional Croatian food. Sibenik town has a lot to see and offer, unfortunately it was so hot during the day we couldn’t explore much but my kids were happy to stay poolside. We are Australian with Croatian background- we will be back someday and won’t hesitate to stay here again.

Prenotato un last nel periodo subito post ferragosto, con un ottimo sconto, l'hotel è sicuramente di classe e vale tutte le 4 stelle superior indicate, la cena così come la colazione sono abbondanti è ricche con ottima qualità del cibo, camera comoda è pulita, la posizione credo sia una delle migliori dell'intero parco, vicino a tutto, il parcheggio si paga a parte (12 euro al giorno) e possibile parcheggiare alla metà vicino alla struttura, le bevande si pagano a parte ma considerando quello che puoi mangiare incidono poco, la spiaggetta dell'Ivan, non necessità di scarpette da mare i sassolini sono piccoli e non fanno male

Een fantastisch hotel waar service hoog in het vaandel staat. Goede, schone kamers en goede faciliteiten. Het hotel is gelegen in een prachtig park waar zich meerdere restaurants bevinden. Dit hotel en resort is een echte aanrader. direct aan zee en mooi zwembad.

An honest family review while we are still here. First off, the area (Sibenik) is really nice. It's clean and the sea is perfect for swimming etc. The Amadria Park Ivan is one of 4 hotels on what was the Solaris Resort. All are linked (sister hotels) with very little difference in standards or facilities. The problem with that is there is no competition and so everything is priced high. You would need to do a ten minute drive to get any variety in food and drinks. The buffet breakfast is fine but after that the menu selection is very poor. The restaurants and snack bars in the resort all use the one menu. On more than one occasion the food we ordered off the limited menus was unavailable. Even simple things like ketchup! The majority of the hotel restaurants close at 9pm too. You will find yourself resorting to having substandard snack type food most days. We booked two rooms, one for my wife and I and the other for our two teenage kids (Girl 18 & Boy 17) We got rooms side by side which was great but there was only a double bed in each. What teenage brother and sister what to share a bed or even one with their parents. We asked for twin beds or even a fold out bed for one of the rooms but we did not get one. Instead we had to pay another €660 for the only remaining room left just so the teenagers had their own space. So we had to book three rooms for something that was not our mistake. On the plus sides, the pools are nice. The walk from the pool to the beach is nice too (right beside each other) White Beach is the main beach at the hotel and it's really well kept and very safe for kids and adults to swim at. The water is very clear and warm. The view out to the islands is impressive. The hotel rooms are ok. Possibly a little small but the issue none of us liked was the lack of privacy at the bathrooms. Their is a clear glass door with no lock and the shower faces into the bedroom with a curtain (on the room side) Very odd set up. The rooms do not have a balcony which is something we usually enjoy. The air con in one of our rooms worked well but no so we'll in the other. The extra room we had to book was even smaller and had one of the worst hotel views I ever saw. Picture attached. There are some really nice staff doing their best and we did appreciate it but overall the hotels are getting the basics wrong. There is no hotel entertainment for teenagers or adults. A DJ just play a few tunes for an hour or so. We had a rainy day and unlike most hotels there was nothing put in place to keep guests entertained. A taxi to the center of Sibenik (€20) is recommended as its a really nice place to see. You can also rent bikes from the sports centre (€32 per person) and go on a nice cycle towards St Nicholas Beach. With food options being a major issue we found that the closest supermarket was 10-15 minutes walk away. It helped us with the basic supplies. If traveling from Split Airport to the resort you will be to factor a charge of €120 - €130 one way. Overall, we went from a high on day one to a very low two days in. For what we paid for this holiday we expected a bit more. Croatia is a must see place. I would highly recommend it, just maybe not at this resort.
