Gava Waterman Milna Resort – All Inclusive

everything was fine with the accommodation, getting out of the island was a bit difficult

Food quality and choice is dire. Mini Butlins. No Croatian experience. Extremely disappointed. Drinks quality dire. Having to eat out!. Charges if lose key, towels, shuttle bus, even to park your car. No lifeguard, no safety equipment, NO THANK YOU

We stayed at Gava Waterman Milna Resort for 7 days. I’ll start with the good points: - the room was lovely and spacious, bed was comfortable, daily housekeeping, good working aircon. - the entertainment team! Especially Magix, Hugo and Dino. They really made an effort all day everyday to keep everybody entertained, involved and having fun. - the waiters in the restaurant, very quick to clear plates and tables, very helpful. - the views are absolutely beautiful - the pool barman and the pool ice cream worker were really friendly and quick at serving - although we arrived after dinner, they had made all guests a dinner for our arrival - clean pools, good use of inflatables and kayaks in the sea, no need to book. - really friendly guy working the shop, always happy to help. Some really lovely handmade products in there, especially the eucalyptus and lemon body butter. - we had a rainy day but the animation team kept everybody entertained with board games and activities - can get basketballs, vollyballs, footballs and tennis rackets from reception and use the court - giant chess, darts and table tennis in resort too - although not much around, there’s enough to keep you entertained and having fun in the resort Now the not so good points: - an awfully long transfer. We landed in Split around 16:15 and after a coach, a ferry and another coach we arrived at the resort just after 21:30, not ideal with two children. Too late to use any facilities, and then our last day was also spent travelling again, maybe book an extra day to facilitate travelling. - although the food was nice, it was very repetitive and got boring after a week, the same rice, potatoes, salad and different meals to do with chicken, pork or beef. - often a very strange sewage smell every now and then - no facilities in room to make a tea or coffee - junior suite, that was no different to a normal hotel room, just a sofa that was turned in to a bed for the children - sort of in the middle of nowhere, although there are shuttle buses, if you want to go exploring, you’re out all day and again spending a lot of time travelling Overall we did have a really lovely time and would recommend it to anybody looking for a relaxing trip away by the pool and sea :)

Amazing animation team, interesting and fun program at the kids club and a lot of daily activities. The food is very taste, we really enjoyed the Mexican dinner at the restaurant pizza and ice cream also ,I like the infinity pool I spend a lot of time there with my kids

I recently stayed at Gava Resort with my family, and we had an absolutely amazing time! The highlight of our stay was how much our 6-year-old daughter enjoyed the Kids Club. She couldn't stop talking about the fun activities, especially the Mini Disco and the fantastic animators, Wissi and Suzi. Their creativity and professionalism truly stood out and made our daughter's experience unforgettable. It's clear they put a lot of effort into ensuring the kids have a great time. As parents, we were able to relax knowing she was in such good hands. We highly recommend Gava Resort for a family vacation and look forward to returning soon!

My wife and I travelled with another couple; we went with Jet2 (and we had been away with Jet2 on two earlier holidays elsewhere). Everything was fantastic. It was the relaxing holiday that we needed. The people were very friendly, the accommodation was spacious, and the whole resort was set in woodland right next to the sea. I'd recommend it all.

Sea, pools and facility are perfect. Rooms are new and clean, kids love the place. Staff are friendly. We don't have any negative comment for the hotel, just food quality in open buffet could be better. We will visit the hotel again in this summer.

Lovely looking hotel and lovely location BUT.... - Food choice is appalling -The snack bar does egg sandwiches and cold cuts only - kids food in kids corner is generally just pizza - The buffet is the worst iv ever seen - No water in rooms, you need to try and persuade a waiter to give you some ot buy from the shop for 2 euros each - if you wanted sprite, or cans of drink it's chargeable - the animation team definitely try but it's just cringeworthy - the waiters and waitresses don't even acknowledge your existence - beach towels are chargeable - no iron available unless you want to pay for laundry services Should NOT be advertised as an all inclusive as it's really not.

We have just had a lovely stay at this resort, despite the very long journey. We arrived late in the day. We were tired and hungry, so were pleased to be told to go to the restaurant. A cold chicken pasta salad had been made for us all. Very tasty and just what we needed. We were then shown to our junior suite, by very helpful and friendly staff. The websites are not very clear, so a bit disappointed that there was only one room to sleep in. It was spotless though, so we made do. We woke in the morning to the most stunning views. The kids loved the inflatable in the sea and the free use of kayaks and paddle boards. Variety of pools and plenty of sun beds. There were 10 of us and we all got beds together. Snack bar and ice creams were great for the kids. Entertainment staff were great fun and loved by us all. Big thank you to Deano and Hugo for teaching Ewan the tactics of chess. We also played tennis, table tennis, outdoor chess, so no boredom on the one rainy day. Found a pretty good running route, if you need a bit of exercise before you relax!! Shuttle bus was great and even picked us up at a later time when we went to Hvar. The food was plentiful and tasty, but often quite the same each day. The biggest thing we would like to say is thank you to all of the staff for making our stay special.
