Hotel Parentium

Nothing to fault about our week-long stay at Hotel Parentium. The location metres from the sea and surrounded by wooded areas and loads of activities to do, the high-quality hotel facilities and modern spaces, friendly and efficient staff, fantastic pool and food, and plenty of low-key quality entertainment each evening made it a special week. Porec town is a short journey away and well worth a visit. Highly recommend for couples and families with kids alike.

It is actually an amazing hotel, the food is amazing, the rooms are big and the beds are comfortable. The crew members are nice but some of them give you the ugly look like they don’t want to be there. I love the pool it is amazing i was there all the time.

We stayed at Hotel Parentium Plava Laguna in July 2025. First, I’d like to acknowledge the many positives: The hotel itself is visually impressive, with a welcoming entrance, modern and stylish lobby and well maintained facilities. The outdoor pool area is large and beautiful, and the beach access is lovely. There's also a heated indoor pool, which is great on rainy days. The buffet meals, both at breakfast and dinner, were generally good with a rich variety, fresh ingredients and good taste overall. However, the desserts were disappointing: industrial, low quality and not up to the level expected with the other food quality. Unfortunately, the room experience and service significantly detracted from our stay. We were initially assigned room 128, which felt like one of the worst located rooms in the hotel. It was very small for three people, and once the extra bed was there, there was barely space to move. The balcony faced a roof (first floor) with no view at all. Most concerning there was a bee or wasp nest directly on the balcony wall and we couldn't open the balcony door and of course not sit outside. When I asked reception to change rooms, I was told no alternatives were available. Only after the housekeeper came, saw the problem with the bees and confirmed nothing could be done, were we suddenly offered another room (167). This felt frustrating and frankly disrespectful as if my complaint wasn’t taken seriously until someone on staff saw it themselves. In the new room, the bed for our teenage son (14.5 years old) was a fold out sofa bed, which was uncomfortable and not suitable for someone his size and age. Also, I was surprised to find that There was no electric kettle or coffee/tea set in the room something expected even in basic 4-star hotels. There wasn’t even a complimentary bottle of water upon arrival, which would be a small but appreciated gesture after a long journey. After raising our concerns, we were offered a late check-out until 6:00 PM, but this wasn’t helpful for us as we had a long drive back to Italy and had to leave early anyway. While we appreciated the gesture, it didn’t truly address the core issues we experienced. Overall, we felt that the experience did not match the price we paid. Considering the quality of the room and the service. the value for money was not adequate
