Hotel Medena 3 * (Croatia, Middle Dalmatia): description, reviews. Holidays in Croatia

There are places on Earth, as if specially created in order to please people with their beauty and leave in their souls a part of themselves forever. That's Croatia - a country, leaving from which every traveler experiences a painful sense of loss. So, probably, Adam and Eve felt themselves, leaving paradise.

It is good that in our time, vacation in Croatia is quite an accessible form of tourism, which is enjoying constant success among travelers from all over the world.

Where to stay

Unique in this country is that people who lived here for several thousand years, preserved the nature of what it was at the time of their first appearance on this earth. Trade settlements and cities were built, then to be destroyed and plundered, some peoples succeeded others, and the Adriatic Sea still splashed along the beautiful shores.

Today it is a Mecca for tourists from all over the world. Particularly popular among travelers is the Middle Dalmatia. Here you can choose a hotel for every taste and purse. For example, the price is the most optimal Hotel Medena 3 *, located 4 km from the city of Trogir. Its biggest advantage is a park of pine trees, surrounded by which it stands.

Fresh, clean air and resin scent are literally intoxicating, as noted by those who came to this hotel for the first time. Particularly feel the medicinal properties of air urban residents. The park itself is very picturesque and has to take a walk in the cool shade of tall pines during the hours when it becomes unbearably hot on the beach.

Hotel buildings

Built in 1979 according to GOSTs adopted in the Soviet Union, the buildings of the building are more like a Soviet sanatorium than a hotel. This is how tourists from the CIS countries respond about it. Although it was reconstructed in 2002, only the reception and Superior and Deluxe-Suite rooms look modern.

Tourist economy rooms are more like rooms without air conditioning in provincial hotels, but for those who came to enjoy the sea, the sun and the country, such trifles do not matter. Saved on the number, you can qualitatively pass the time outside of it.

To spend a holiday in Croatia in an inexpensive hotel does not mean leaving frustrated. The country is so rich in sights and picturesque that it's just a sin to sit in the room and complain about old furniture or lack of air conditioning.

The location of the hotel allows you to spend quality time. Trogir can be reached on foot, and for the laziest ones there are buses, a taxi and a boat that departs from the wharf on the beach every 20-30 minutes. It is worth a sea walk of just 15 kunas, and a fresh breeze and a beautiful view of the coast will be a pleasure.

Split, the main city of the region, can be reached by public transport in 10-20 minutes.

Location of the hotel

Undoubtedly, the Middle Dalmatia, which originates from the city of Sibenik, located in the north of the province, and to Gradac on the south side, is Croatia's most picturesque resort. It is here that the main famous monuments of antiquity are located and, of course, the most beautiful coast of the whole Adriatic.

Medena Hotel Trogir 3 * although not of high category, but the area where it is located, will eclipse any shortcomings when staying in it. For example, in the nearby town of Omishe there is an old pirate fortress, from which such a spectacular view opens that will want to stay in it forever.

Attractions near the hotel

Too conflicting opinions about the hotel are those who rested at the Medena Hotel 3 * (Croatia). Reviews of attractions close to it, on the contrary, are always the most enthusiastic.

So, from natural monuments one should definitely visit the Cetin gorge, along which the same river flows. It formed an amazing beauty of grottoes and waterfalls, the highest of which is 48 meters. This is a favorite place for those who wish to take with them the most beautiful views of Croatia, and those who prefer the beach rafting and kayaking.

Once the Romans erected on the top of the gorge several defensive fortresses, the ruins of which can still be seen today.

If you go on an excursion to Trogir, then attention should be paid to several objects:

• The cathedral, built in 1123. It is perfectly preserved and still accepts believers. Outside the walls of the cathedral are painted with images of the apostles, and the interior decoration was created by the disciple of the great Donatello - Nikolay Florentinets.
• The old part of Trogir can not be missed either. Wander through the narrow streets, feel yourself in the Middle Ages, then sit in the street in a cafe and, having drunk a cup of fragrant coffee, return to the 21st century. Here, numerous shops offer various souvenirs and handicrafts of local craftsmen at very pleasant prices, so that few people leave without buying.

Who wants more impressions, should go to a larger and rich in monuments of antiquity Split. It will take more time, but the received impressions are worth it. Here it is worth a look:

• The aqueduct, built in the times of the Roman Empire by the decree of Diocletian. It is perfectly preserved, so it makes a strong impression.
• Palace of the Emperor Diocletian, which in its time was the largest in Europe. Its area is 4500 m ² . By our time only a small part of it has survived, but it also gives an idea of how grand the building was.
• The Temple of Jupiter is another architectural masterpiece that has survived to this day since antiquity.

For the sake of the impressions that leave behind the sights of Croatia, you can choose a vacation in an economy-class hotel, although if you consider that Medena is a state resort, it can be called a very decent one.
