    It was a bit over priced. 8 euros for a bottle of water that you would get from the supermarket for 93 cents. Not many of the rooms have a balcony so you can’t stay in your room and chill out.

    Location was great and the staff were really friendly. There were some nice seats at the front of the hotel to chill out at. Hotel was super clean and nicely decorated.

    Some facilities not available as I travelled 'out of season' - this would have been good to know before booking. No responses to message prior to arrival was frustrating.

    Really great room - received free upgrade on arrival. Pool and location were great. Staff at hotel were nice & helpful, especially when ferry was cancelled.

    A couple of the staff were less than friendly - guy handing out the pool towels claimed that we hadn't returned our towels the previous day when we had & reception wanted to charge us for a bottle of water when the guy who showed us to our room told us it was complimentary. Small but annoying little things when we were paying top dollar for the room.

    Wonderful views from our room, breakfast was excellent and location very good. The bar was also excellent for a late night drink.

    Beautiful hotel in an excellent location. It's walking distance from the ferry (on a nice path along the water). When you arrive via ferry, someone with a sign from the hotel will be waiting to take your luggage, as you continue walking along the path to the hotel. It has multiple pools, excellent views, rooms were clean, overall a really great experience.

    The reception staff were very unpleasant. As soon as we arrived to the hotel by car, the staff rushed us to take the bags out of the car even trying to open our boot. The only that were actually nice were the cleaning ladies.

    We liked the room and the location of the hotel as it was short walk to the city center

    I stayed in the second wing. The single lift that this wing uses has to be looked at , it should have a sign on it on how to open the door from the inside, I rescued another guest who got stuck in it as she didn't know she had to push the door out by herself (there is no sign on the lift). I kinda had the same problem but figured it out after 5 seconds . It's a very old Otis lift , it must be from the 1970s or 1980s. It belongs in a museum now.

    I loved the pool facilities, big slide was fun. The closeness to a little beach , and the coastal walkway into the town of Hvar. Food provided was decent also.

    You had to pay the hotel $15 euros every time you used (the so called public beach chairs). If it was a public beach then why is the hotel charging and not the public location? I really don’t understand that at all. Every hotel that I stayed at had free beach chairs. The girl at the counter rolled her eyes at me after I came back from a 20 min walk to make sure my luggage was going to be departing with me at the correct time to meet the ferry. I was traveling solo and really didn’t appreciate her attitude-like I was bothering her.

    Beautiful place! It was located right off the beach. Room was very relaxing and nice looking. Bed was comfortable.

    Our first room had stains on the carpet and it was tiny. We complained and they moved us to a bigger room and one without stains on the carpet.

    The pool and the staff were lovely. Bed was super comfy. Great food for breakfast and dinner. Really close to town. It was quiet at the hotel as it was near the end of season, think we'd have found it very busy during peak season.

    I think the pictures can be a little misleading especially the pool size. The pool somehow was freezing cold even though it was boiling! I think the hotel is looking a tired in parts and needs some maintenance. For example, there used to be a climbing wall and volleyball area which has been abandoned (with some of the climbing rocks being taken off at the bottom so it is out of use but the rest left, and where removed the marks have not been painted over). The hallways also had some peeling and scraped wallpaper and the lights behind the numbers on the hotel doors had come away slightly. Part of the stairs had cracked and come away on the way up to the restaurant. We paid for a balcony but didn’t want to sit on it because it was right next to a kind of busy road with cables etc. Our curtains didn’t fully close which meant a big chink of light came through in the morning. We didn’t have a bath mat left for us 3/5 days. Staff round the pool were ok, not majorly friendly. The first day we got there, we couldn’t even find a sun bed and it was really loud. I think this was because a load of people had just visited the hotel and weren’t actual guest staying there. All in all, not terrible, but for the price we paid for 5 nights we were a bit disappointed.

    The location is really handy and it’s great that breakfast is included which is really flexible times (7-11am).

    Knowledge of the case transfer service or how to get there. I went up and down about 200 steps to arrive in the pool area to face more steps and a lift, with 60 kg of luggage for what looked like an easy journey on the map. If I'd have known about the luggage service would have been a great help.

    Nice room with a great view, and not far to walk to a great Beach Bar. Good breakfast

    The room was VERY tiny. I never could catch the right time to shower with hot water and the AC was locked at certain temperature and i could not bring it to a comfortable temperature. My room was very close to the stairs and the elevators so it was very loud at all times. both late night when people came home and very very early in the mornings.

    The room had a big bed but thats it.

    It was a very nice hotel however some small areas needed attention, e.g stains on carpet/furniture and pool Loungers were very crowded together which spoilt the aesthetics slightly. But these are very small details.

    The pool and proximity to the sea. Staff were excellent. Breakfast buffet was very good.

    Our room was tired and there were many stains on the carpet …brown and red blotches that were not pretty. Two of my dresses also went missing/lost in the room/transit. I contacted Amfora through booking.com as there is no email and no one answers the provided phone number. No response to date..We also managed to lock ourselves out of our room on the balcony…we had to be rescued by yelling out to guests on another balcony…no one at the resort answered the phone when we tried to call and we were told to be more careful once rescued ..there is no warning that you can’t close the doors to the balcony without locking yourself out!

    The pool was fantastic…porters were fantastic and ensured your luggage was brought from the ferry to your room and then back to the ferry! The breakfast was great! The staff serving in the bar and restaurant also fantastic!
