Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Another fantastic weeks stay in a 2 bedroom apartment. The apartment is located in the pine trees but steps from Hawaii Beach. Great staff and a beautiful apartment equipped with all you need. This is our second visit this year, it is now closed for the season and re-opens mid April 2024. Check in is easy and stress free. Reception is opposite the supermarket Lito on the main complex, you can then get a golf buggy lift to your apartment. From there it’s easy to find your way around.

Stayed in a Superior 2 bed for just over a week. Apartment was modern, clean and well equipped for a family wanting to mix eating out and in. Towels refreshed every day/as needed. Wifi connection was good for our apartment, Irena towards the back. Resort is very clean and tidy, good choice of restaurants around the site and the shared pool is lovely. Sea water based but don’t be put off by that, it was still refreshing. Staff were really friendly and helpful. Oh and on site supermarket was very handy! Would definitely come again

I have booked the villa here for the vacation and I am doubting to go thee as I already experience very bad customer service. They asked in the form for when I want to arrive . I replied 2-3 PM and then through Booking.com I receive a message that my request is rejected without giving any explanation. I wrote back asking for the explanation to which I got no response. I called to check and got an answering machine in Croatian language . Anyway I waited and got connected to someone from the hotel who was cordial and said it was not a problem to arrive between 2-3PM. Then connected me to someone from the reservation for the resort who was extremely rude and would only reply with yes or no kind of answer. Bad experience and now fearing if I should change the hotel somewhere else

This was our second visit to Verudela Beach Apartments, however this time we was slightly apprehensive about our visit due to covid-19 but we need not have worried at all as there was hand sanitisers everywhere, face masks worn in public areas and social distancing adhered to throughout the resort and we felt very safe during our much needed break away after months of lockdown. We stayed in a one bedroom superior apartment that had been redecorated beautifully. They have a living room with comfy blue velvet sofa bed, kitchen, shower room, one bedroom with the most comfy double bed we’ve had whilst travelling abroad, plus an extra long balcony with a spectacular sea views that was watched the dolphins from. The appartment was exceptionally clean and well equipped with high brand new items. There was two wall mounted tvs, one in the living area and one in the bedroom, that could stream Netflix on if you have an account, plus a helpful channel with resort information on. We had clean bedding given to us a couple of times in our week long stay and clean towels every single day. All of the resort staff was very friendly and helpful. The whole of the Verudela peninsula is kept very clean, theres lots going on and it has the most beautiful rocky beaches to swim and snorkel from and the most stunning sunsets to watch with a glass of wine. There are various types of restaurants within walking distance away that will suit everyone’s tastes and price range. We definitely recommend and hope to be back soon.

I stayed at one of the Arena Verudela Beach Superior Appartments with living room/kitchen, bathroom, sleeping room and balconies with sea view from the living room and sleeping room. The appartment was very clean and well equipped. Two 4K-TVs and a nice resort information system even capable of streaming to both TVs. The kitchen had all the sufficient stuff and seemed brand new. The beds are very comfortable and the sea view from the bed is beautiful. The whole appartment and balconies are very well designed an feature high quality brand equipment. The room maids did an excellent job and were friendly and helpful through our whole stay. The surroundings of the appartments feature very clean and nice beachs, no matter if you prefer cliffs, rock or marble beachs. Various restaurants in walking distance and various sports offers round up the good setting. Definitely recommendable. Hopefully soon again.

We stayed in an apartment with a sea view for a week in mid August. We had a fabulous time..the staff, from the reception, to the housekeepers, to the restaurants couldn’t have been friendlier and more helpful. The food at the yacht club was excellent, breakfast was a scrummy and freshly made, as were the poolside cocktails and beer at the pool bar. The pool beds are free, but get there early and you can hire huge beds on the sea front for the day for a modest amount including drinks for the price. And there’s also a supermarket, cafe and shops. All in all a great holiday in a great location. Thank you

Very beautiful area. It`s one big complex full of hotels, apartments, restaurants, few beaches, shops. On outskirts of town. Take taxi or book transfer from airport - we did that online which came very cheap. Bus stop nearby to city centre. Supermarket on site is very expensive. Pizza place was nice. Bike rental. Tennis courts. Beautiful rocky beaches. Swimming pool was very nice but it`s sea water in it ( ! ) plus THEY CHARGE FOR SUNBEDS!!!! Water slide is sometimes open. Ice cream in pool bar melting and horrible. Rooms are bit outdated but nice view and lots of cooking equipment. Room was cleaned only once in a week and not very good at all! Reception very friendly and helpful. Kids playground is full of weeds and bushes and closed. There is other one with couple bouncy castles you have to pay for. Go on boat trip to Rovinij and see old Pula - it`s brilliant! Overall be prepared to pay extra for everything but area is beautiful.

Super accommodation, beautiful town of Pula, only weather could be improved, still that did not bothered us too much. Accommodation was perfect little flat, with all that was necessary, and then within resort there are restaurants, shops, market. Town was easy to reach by local bus, or taxi that cost us some 8 euros to city center. Food was delicious also in all places we were eating. Really worth to be visited!

Stayed 16-29th September 2019. Beautiful area to stay. Had an apartment which was in an excellent location and good value. Improvements needed would be the mattress that was very uncomfortable and a toaster. Housekeeping excellent with bedding and towels changed every other day. The resort has a large pool with sunbeds only £2 daily and restaurant very reasonable. Lovely beach and coves to sunbath and I would recommend buying beach mats and water shoes as rocky not sandy. Plenty of places to eat and a supermarket for convenience. Best advice I was given- stock up on your water before being taken by buggy to your apartment. I would recommend taking a boat trip to Ravonija which is beautiful and well worth a visit. Buses cheap and run frequently to Pula. Try the paddle boarding which was good fun and yoga which is free. Very good service from all staff in resort. Check in is not until 4pm which we didn't know after taking an early flight . Fine for us but may be a wait if with children.
