Valamar Tirena Hotel

It was newly refurbished and everything was done to a high standard.

As per my son (7 yrs old), this is the best hotel in the world!! :-) We simply loved staying in this hotel. We stayed for 3 nights, and to be honest we would have loved to stay for a few more nights. (a) It is a very nice and well spread resort (b) facilities are amazing - the pool, pool bar, restaurants - they are really great (c) kids would love this place - there is a small water park, kids pool and most importantly a facility for kids where there are kids cinema, video games (playstation/nintendo), lot of activities, trumpoline, soft play area ... (d) the rooms were really comfortable (e) the staffs were amazing (f) they have enough parking, though it is a bit away (like 5 mins walking) (g) there were quite a few beaches and beach bar inside (unfortunately they were closed when we went)

We absolutely loved our time at Valamar Tirena Hotel! The room was modern, clean, and very comfortable. The pool area was beautiful and relaxing, and the breakfast buffet was outstanding – so many fresh and tasty options. The location is great: peaceful, yet just a short bus ride from Dubrovnik’s Old Town. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay. We’ll definitely be coming back – highly recommended!

A really lovely and modern hotel which is elegantly decorated. It sits on a complex with other hotels from the same chain in a peaceful forested area with a few beaches away from the city. There are buses to the old town or it is a short 10 min ride in a taxi (I would recommend using Uber which costs about €7 - we found with regular taxis the price could differ from €18 to €30 which was both insane and infuriating. Ubers arrive very quickly.) Between the hotel and the old town there is also a part of the city with restaurants and bars. The complex itself has a few shops, bars, and restaurants and a really nice holiday vibe to it. The pool is fantastic, and my son and I really enjoyed the water slides. There is a nice poolside bar plus a restaurant. My son loved the kid's zone Maro World which has PS5/X-Box, Lego, trampolines, and a soft play. I believe they also offer a kid's club where you can leave your children all day however we didn't use it. The breakfast is really extensive with lots of choice including freshly made omelettes to your specification. We didn't have an evening meal but it looked nice. The bar area of the hotel is also very relaxing with a large outdoor terrace. The staff were friendly and the hotel upgraded our room free-of-charge on arrival. They also let us check-out a little bit later as our check-out date fell on my birthday. We only stayed for 3 nights as we were travelling around Croatia but this was the one hotel we ended up wishing we'd stayed at for longer. We were visiting out of season and would love to one day return for a longer stay in summer, although Dubrovnik old town was perfect to visit in October.

Bright, clean hotel with friendly staff and excellent facilities for families. Our kids enjoyed Maro World, Trampoline park and Kids pool and slides. Breakfast buffet was very nice and we also dined in the other restaurants in the Valamar complex. Bus stop nearby brings you to old town Dubrovnik for €2. There was a power outage in the area on one day (no air con) and the restaurant manager gave our kids free ice cream which they still talk about!
