Solaris Beach Resort is one of the best options for accommodation in Sibenik. It is a very big complex and it has too many alternatives for different budgets from tent camping to bungalows to 3 and 4 star hotels. We stayed one of the hotels called Hotel Ivan.
Let’s look at the Hotel Ivan in details. Firstly we were pleased by the service off the staff. They were helpfull and similey. Rooms were very clean, and the air conditioning was working perfect. (It was very important in those summer days.) The one thing that were missing in the room was small balcony or some place for the wet clothes. There were no place to hang the swimming suites after a beach session.
There is a lovely beach just in front of the Hotel Ivan and the decoration is very interesting. There is giant Pirate Ship on the beach, which has a bar in it. Also there are comfortable sunbeds just near the seaside if you are looking for a relaxing day.
In the video you will notice the salsa festival on the beach, its every summer in July, called Salsa Beach Splash.
This festival is a well orginized one and we believe that one of the best in the world. There are beach parties all day long, It continues in the hotel at nights and dancers turn back to beach at the sunrise. Especially dancing at the sunrise on the beach with the all wonderful colors in the sky was amazing! Moreover you can jump into directly the sea after all the dancing and it is really refreshing.
Let’s talk abour meals for a while. There is a nice restaurant in the hotel but just 1 day we had our dinner in the hotel. Other days we discovered some other nice restaurants in the Solaris Resort and we preferred the ones near seaside. I believe it is the best thing of staying in a resort complex beacuse you have freedom and you have so many options for swimming, having dinner, cafes&bars etc…
Afterall, We stayed 5 nights in Solaris Beach Resort-Hotel Ivan and we were pleased from our holiday. Furthermore Salsa Festival made it perfect! 🙂
