Boutique Hotel Boškinac
9.4 (18 reviews)

Boutique Hotel Boškinac ★★★★

📍 Škopaljska 220, Novalja

"BOŠKINAC – Eldorado for Pretentious Peacocks The road to Boškinac already signaled trouble – asphalted, narrow like a vein, dangerously designed so you cannot pass another vehicle. A quad almost crashed into my car, like an aggressive specter from the hotel itself. Everything felt overhyped, fake, sterile. The hotel – the island’s pride, flaunting a Michelin star that shines more like a cheap neon sign in a roadside motel. Surrounded by olive trees that serve only as stage props. Behind them – emptiness. We reached the tavern. My mother, 81 years old, climbed the countless steps with dignity. At the top, five waiters stood together. One said: “There’s no place for you.” The others laughed and behaved like teenagers loitering in front of a kiosk with beer cans – giggling, nudging each other, completely unprofessional. This is Boškinac: – a hotel with no respect for the elderly, – a place where the Michelin star shines above staff who mock frailty, – an Eldorado for pretentious guests who believe they’re elite because they eat among olive trees, – a false stage set of luxury with not a shred of soul, – a restaurant where every “star” is actually a stain of shame. When I confronted them, the laughter continued – empty, cold, echoing like cracking plastic. Another waiter tried to “apologize,” but without sincerity, as if they were on a school trip rather than working in a luxury hotel. I called the manager, Ivana. Her voice was juvenile, frivolous, chirpy – not the voice of someone who understands responsibility. She offered me coffee and cake as compensation. I replied: “It’s not about cake. It’s about dignity.” Boškinac is, in fact, a nest of illusions: – They haven’t built a proper staff in twenty years, – They haven’t learned what hospitality even means, – They have no respect, no empathy, – They only have a label, a star, a façade. A disgrace to the island. A disgrace to Michelin. An Eldorado for those who enjoy being dazzled by décor but have no idea what it means to truly look someone in the eye – or what it means to be human."

📍 Burin Bok 35, Novalja

"A new spa hotel close to the town of Novalja, Croatia. A basic room, spa facilities (only one sauna was in function), a restaurant (mostly empty, we were there out of season), simple breakfast, helpfull stuff. We were there by car so it was easy to visit some historical sights and other attractions, and get to the starting point of hiking tours."

Boutique Hotel Boškinac ★★★★
"We spent two days on Pag island in this beautiful hotel with the most incredible staff. The hotel is beautiful and well decorated and it feels you have walked into a home. Mirela the owner was there to welcome us and it felt like she was welcoming us into her own home. We had great dinner in the tavern and enjoyed tasting all the variety of Boškinac wine over our stay. A special shoutout to all the staff who looked after us so well. They were all so knowledgeable about the area and the wine and were genuinely passionate in everything they did. My partner was gluten free and the hotel and staff accommodated us so well. We hope to come and visit you again soon."

"Super nice, modern hotel. Exceptional service. The staff bent over backwards to give us great service. This is a small hotel and the hotel manager, Adnan, made us feel like family. The hotel restaurant food is really good with great Croatian wines. Adnan also recommended some great restaurants and book them for us. I was playing a DJ gig at Zrce Beach so we wanted to stay somewhere nice and quiet."

Terra Park Phalaris ★★★★
"We are here for a week-long stay with our caravan, and not a single day goes by without problems. Every other day, there is a power outage lasting at least three hours; we have a pitch near the sanitary facilities, where foul-smelling wastewater has overflowed for the second time now. At reception, they just say "sorry." They didn't even respond to our complaint about the electricity. This facility ought to be shut down on hygiene grounds; no guest wants to walk through sewage."

Hotel Olea ★★★★
"Everything was amazing! The staff was kind and helped with everything. Will come again. Location is not next to the sea but everything is close and the pools are great. The only thing i would mention as a minus is the gym. I would say it needs an upgrade but this is only a minor inconvinience. Best regards"
