Arena Verudela Beach Apartments — Attraction in Grad Pula

Amazing views from the Sofija apartments, right next to the sea, large rooms with a lot of storage cabinets, hot and nice shower, very large balconies with chairs and table, free safe with the key provided, air conditioning you pay extra, very large fridge freezer. Big convenience shop, pharmacy, restaurants, clothes and souvenir shops, good opening hours, food shop open until 9pm. You can get a take away from the Restaurant. Good coffee shop with Illy coffee and ice cream. Amazing views from everywhere and the area surrounded by lovely pine forest. We didn't visit the aquarium but it is in the middle of the complex. A lot of parking spaces, bus stop nearby, also easy to reach the Pula. Also, great spa and the indoor swimming pool, you need to pay extra but you get a reasonable discount. There is no iron hire which is quite disappointing, only the laundry in the complex which is too far away from the apartments to use. Also no kettle, only coffee machine but no filters, you have to bring yourself. No microwave, no sponge to do the washing up, no kitchen towels, only paper towels. There is a metal jug which you can use to heat the water for your coffee, which we used, but coffee cups and glasses were so small so the coffee was not very enjoyable. There is only soap provided but no shampoo etc. Good amount of towels provided for the use and changed every other day, but no beach towels. TV don't work.

TIP - the apartments are nice but dated, check if everything is working before you unpack, because for us the balcony doors handle was missing and it did not lock, they could not fix it on the day so we had to move to the...

This is a wonderful family resort perfect for activities and relaxing. We enjoyed kayaking and snorkeling within metres of our apartment, which was conveniently situated at the beach. Our children loved swimming in the beach and spending time on the aquapark (additional charge). We also hired e-scooters to explore the resort. Resort feels very safe and teenagers can be independent. Small supermarket and a variety of cafes and restaurants, as well as ice cream and burgers available until late. ||Our apartment had a lovely shaded balcony with sea view. Recommend a first floor apartment for the best sea views. I would recommend coming prepared for beach activities as the pool was very busy and we therefore spent most of our time at the beach. Picnic blanket, towels, snorkels and water shoes are essential! Beaches are stony, not sandy, but the water is beautifully clear and we loved swimming. ||On the third day of our holiday my daughters soft toy was accidentally taken by the housekeeping team, which she was distraught about as she had had this toy since she was born. The housekeeping and reception team worked tirelessly to find this, and we were eventually reunited with the toy just before checkout, much to our delight. We can't thank the team enough for finding this irreplaceable toy. Service from reception throughout our stay was great, they are so helpful and will go the extra mile to help. ||A great base to explore the Pula region with a hire car, or just to explore the resort, which has plenty to keep the whole family occupied. Will...
