Unbelievable loud and bad disco music from the other side of the beach . You can’t sleep with open windows. It’s so hard that a building is shaking. The reception is unavailable by phone to ask when will be the party over?? Very disappointing!

Every year we stay at Aminess in Makarska, but this year we decided to try a different hotel because of its excellent reviews. Unfortunately, after our first day, I'm not as impressed as I expected to be. The room appeared to be clean, which was a good start. However, after a long journey, I was really looking forward to a bottle of water, and I was surprised that there wasn't any in the room—not even bottled water available for purchase. For a hotel of this standard, that seems like a basic amenity. The pool area also felt quite disorganized. There was no clear indication of where to collect pool towels, and many sunbeds were occupied with hotel towels despite very few people actually using the pool. It would be helpful if staff periodically checked unattended loungers and removed towels if they've been left unused for an hour or so, allowing other guests to enjoy them. I was also under the impression that the hotel had its own sunbeds by the beach, but I was informed that all beach loungers are privately operated and require payment. The dinner buffet was another disappointment. While the food was decent, the selection was more limited than I expected, and the buffet layout wasn't well suited for the number of guests dining. Long lines formed quickly, making the experience feel crowded and inefficient. Based on my experience so far, I would currently rate this as more of a 3-star experience rather than the higher standard I was expecting. I'm hopeful the rest of our stay improves, and if it does, I'll gladly update my review.

A lovely hotel right by the beach. The Soline is a big hotel and clearly very popular with young families who enjoy the paddling pool and main/partly covered pool with their inflatables. We really enjoyed our meals (half board), there was a huge choice and variety and everything was delicious. Well done to the staff for catering so well for such a busy restaurant. It was disappointing to see so many people piling their plates and then wasting food in large quantities! Special mention to Anita and Filip who were very sweet and kind to everyone. The evenings with live music were really great, lovely to sit and listen in the garden after dinner. The hotel is clean and modern inside with comfortable bedrooms. Externally it is very striking architectuallary! Brela is a pretty place and the pine covered walkway is beautiful although it was very busy while we were there and clearly enjoyed by many. The spa provided quiet and cool relief out of the heat and the massage by Tessa was great. There is also a hairdresser but we didnt use it. Sun bed reserving as always is rife.....please think twice before laying your towels out and then going out for the morning!The hotels signs are just ignored.
