We booked the hotel based on its positive reviews, especially because of the highly praised sports program. Unfortunately, our experience was quite disappointing. The average age of the guests was over 60, and it was clear that most were not there for an active holiday. The sports offerings were ext...

Congrats, You guys got me. This place is labeled as an "all inclusive" but, many things are not. They nickle and dime you for the smallest commodities like a bath robe or extra pillow, thats free at your local super 8. They start you off with this weird card system with poolside towls that if you l...

We spent a family holiday in this hotel for the second time. Despite a little bit small rooms everything was acceptable except one thing. Ignorant guests (not every guest of course). The worst thing which is hotel management responsible is that every public rest spot in the hotel is a smoking area w...

Fantastic resort, with a great location right on Put Zlatnog Rata, about a 5 minute walk from Zlatni Rat Beach. Beautiful grounds with good amenities like 2 pools, a spa, and 10 hours of free bike rental from their bike shop. Getting around requires scaling some steep staircases so if you aren’t ver...

I was not a guest of the hotel but I was given a gift certificate to use at the spa and I would not recommend getting a gel manicure or gel pedicure with them. I had my appointment on 16.07 at 16:00.

Pros

  • Strong official all-inclusive evidence.
  • Directly by the sea on Brač.
  • Wide sport, wellness, and family programming.

Cons

  • Property-specific Reddit evidence is limited.
  • Brač logistics can require more planning than mainland resorts.
  • Not a classic Caribbean-style luxury all-inclusive.

Things to know

  • This is one of the stronger Croatia candidates for a true all-inclusive resort because the official site explicitly describes a true all-inclusive concept.
  • Best fit for active couples, families, and sports-focused travelers.
  • Travelers wanting a quiet boutique resort may find the sports-program atmosphere too structured.

Hidden tips

  • Use Brac Airport when routing is available; otherwise expect ferry/transfer logistics from Split.
  • Position this as an active all-inclusive rather than a passive beach resort.

From Reddit

Reddit coverage around Bol and Zlatni Rat supports the area’s appeal for beach and active travelers, but property-specific Bretanide discussion is limited.
