The Isolano, Cres, Autograph Collection

Isolano on Cres is oasis of calm. We spent few unforgettable days here mid-June. The hotel is so new you are almost afraid to touch things in the room. Everything, really everything in and round hotel was created with a sense of sustainability and celebrating the heritage of the island itself.Interior architects did particularly amazing job here bringing in mementos from the past into the surroundings: coat of arms on the wall, old wooden bench or traditional salon chair from few centuries ago. Everything is done in natural materials and subtle, pleasant palette, with a splash of colour here and there. At breakfast, they present you many produce from the island: different cheeses, local cold cuts, local honey and jams. You also get to order you eggs , porridge or chia pudding a la carte. And you should get to see the pastry table-omg- ever heard of mini Pavlovas for breakfast, heavenly croissants made from scratch.. do not get me even started on this - we got spoilt rotten. Restaurant team was perfect: spotless discreet service- they are reading from your lips. This is service as ist should be and is seldomly found in Europe. Special thanks to Milos, Nikola, Obrad- unfortunately do not remember all the names - they made our stay unforgettable. Food in on premise Restaurant Lubenice is also excellent. Lots of local products: lamb, beef, octopus, I can highly recommend it. Hotel has a beautiful spa- which we did not use since it was such a good weather. Infinity pool is great and there is a exceptionally well kept public beach directly below hotel. Warning: it is pebbles- like usual in Croatia- you might need reef shoes for this. Apart from that great beach, clean water, no sea urchins. In the end, special thanks to the concierge (Ivona ??) Who should us around hotel and suggested many different activities. We did not try any since time was short and we enjoyed the hotel so much. But hopefully next time, there is so much to explore to this wonderful , wild island.

I stayed at The Isolano at the end of April and absolutely loved every minute of it! The hotel is stunning – every little detail is so thoughtfully designed. The food was amazing, and I have to say, I was obsessed with the plate design – they’re as beautiful as the dishes they served! The in-room cosmetics were such a lovely touch! And the view from my room? Absolutely top notch – the hotel is right on the beach, and the sea is just steps away. I’ve stayed in many Marriott hotels over the years, and I can honestly say this is the best one I’ve ever experienced. I’ve already booked my next stay and I seriously can’t wait to come back. Highly, highly recommend!

The service was exceptional from check-in to check-out, hotel staff is very friendly and helpful. Rooms are bright, specious and remarkably clean. Hotel design is wonderful with lot of focus on details. SPA area is spacious and smells amazing. And outdoor terrace offers beautiful sea view just few meters from the beach. Breakfast was amazing, they have great choice of a ’la cart options. Dinner we had at the hotel was also exceptional. Besides putting a lot of effort into food presentation they also use a lot of local ingredients. Overall beautiful hotel located in a peaceful area right next to the sea.

Brand new opened The Isolano hotel makes your experience a memorable one and it definitely exceeded our expectations. Amazing and rich breakfast, prompt and professional service, delicious cocktails, spacious room, large SPA zone and fantastic offer really fits customer's needs and requires. We will definitely come back again. Top notch, well done team!!!
