  Horrible

  The location is beautiful

  Here is a strong version that keeps the criticism specific and factual: I left after one night because I felt extremely uncomfortable and, ultimately, unsafe. From the moment I arrived, the experience was strange. Staff were around, but I was left waiting for around 20 minutes before anyone seemed interested in giving me the key. Payment for the entire stay was taken immediately upfront. The main problem, however, was the constant and extremely aggressive selling. As soon as I sat down to eat, the host sat at my table and tried to sell me a dolphin tour. I politely explained that I wasn’t interested, but he simply would not leave. He remained at the table while I was eating, continuing the conversation and even burping repeatedly. The following morning, exactly the same thing happened: I ordered and paid for breakfast, several advertised items were unavailable, and once again the host sat down and tried to convince me to buy the dolphin tour despite my having already said no. Stepping outside was equally uncomfortable. Immediately next door I was approached by people trying to sell me things, who continued following me after I declined. Throughout Lovina I experienced relentless selling, including an extremely inappropriate sexual proposition from a motorbike driver. By that point, coming back to accommodation where I also felt constantly pressured rather than looked after made me feel genuinely unsafe. When I actually needed assistance from the hosts, however, the attitude was completely different: there seemed to be very little interest in helping. There was nowhere comfortable to retreat except my room. The only real communal seating area overlooking the sea was routinely occupied by the host, feet up, playing TikTok videos one after another at full volume. So even the one place where I might have sat peacefully outside no my bungalow was not relaxing. I also had problems with prices.

  Great place to stay and they arranged very nice activities for us

  Fantastic place to stay near Lovina. The room was great with a huge bed and the bathroom had a fantastic view on the ocean. The owners were very welcoming and made sure we were having a good time. They arranged a dolphin-watching trip and a snorkeling trip for us (at a very good price), which we both really enjoyed. Especially the dolphin watching was a highlight of our trip.

  Ich war froh dort endlich wegzufahren

  Schöne Aussicht von dem Balkon, direkt am Meer . Grosse saubere geräumige Zimmern . Sie bieten Delfine Touren, ich habe aber in Lovina gebucht. Ins Meer bin ich nicht gegangen. Kein guten Strand

  Es ist sehr abgelegen. Man muss immer Transport buchen für Lovina. Es gibt dort nichts und alles vermühlt. Mir wurde zweimal versprochen Taxi zu organisieren und Gott sei Dank habe ich das selbst in die Hände genommen. Sonst würde ich ohne Taxi bleiben. Vom Personal war nur einen freundlichen Mann, sonst herrscht Fortschritt drückende Stimmung
