Valamar Camping Lanterna

"We stayed in the Punta Blu section of the site, which was tucked away in the back corner. The rooms were small but practical, with a small kitchen, bathroom and some storage for clothes. There was also a sofa bed, although putting it up would have made the room feel very cramped. The pool area was well maintained, and Jadranka, the lady looking after the pool area, was excellent and very helpful. The double beds at the pool had nets that had broken off from previous users, but this didn’t stop us enjoying the area. The happy hour by the pool, where prosecco and snacks were provided, was a great addition and very well received. Bikes were also provided free of charge by the pool, which was a nice touch, although unfortunately they were too big for my wife. One downside was that at night the pool attracted lots of seagulls, which made it less appealing. A pool cover would probably help with this. Breakfast was more than half a mile away from the accommodation, down a hill. For anyone with limited mobility, this could be a problem. However, it was worth the walk as the breakfast was plentiful and very nice. The beach was also over half a mile away, and taking the steps made the walk quite hard work. One big plus is that you get free sunbeds at the beach, although if the attendant isn’t there, the local reception staff don’t seem to know anything about this. The centre was just under a mile away, again involving a walk down a hill. With children, walking back after a few drinks became quite a chore. There were also lots of people travelling around on e-bikes and scooters, so you really had to keep your wits about you. Signage around the site was also quite poor, which meant we spent a fair amount of time wandering around aimlessly trying to find our way. There was also a land train available, but we were not provided with any information about it during our stay. An information pack in the accommodation or clearer details on the app would have been very helpful. Unfortunately, we found the reception staff rather unhelpful and they didn’t seem to know much about the local area. We asked them to arrange a taxi as we didn’t have a car, but were quoted €300 for a 32-mile round trip to Rovinj, which was obviously far too expensive for us. The restaurants were another disappointment, as we felt the food was overpriced for what it was. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend staying here without a car, particularly if you have young children or anyone with mobility issues. Be prepared for quite a lot of walking, including some steep hills. The accommodation and pool itself were pleasant, Jadranka was fantastic, the happy hour was a lovely touch, and the breakfast was very good, but the location and lack of helpful local information made the stay more hard work than we expected."
