The accommodation itself needs maintenance, it's however at a great location and we loved being able to dive into the Adriatic sea within 50m of our doorstep!

Extremely Disappointing

The location was good, the accommodation was sub standard- old, dirty, full of mould and in desperate need of a total renovation. The bathroom leaked so badly water was running into the bedroom. The TV didn’t work, the rusty fridge leaked and hadn’t been cleaned inside or out. The only real positive was the restaurant we visited. Benjamin offered a high standard of service and the food was very good. We would never go back and definitely not recommend staying there - it’s a health trap!

What a wonderful stay! It has been 20 years since me and my family's last holiday in Lanterna and we were happy to find out the place is still as beautiful, quiet and safe as we remember. Holidays were fantastic and we made the most of it when relaxing and recharging, what was our trip's main purpose. However, we were utterly disappointed to discover that condition of the apartments was very poor and far from the pictures advertised. Sadly, instead of receiving proper maintenance / upgrade over the years, the apartments were left to its own demise. Paint peeling of the wall and windows, windows and doors not shutting properly, dated bathroom and furniture.. So much money collected from visitors over the years, yet zero investment to the property maintenance - heartbreaking. Cleanliness could also be improved, finding a layer of dust on the bed frames or on the kitchen counter was not pleasant. We got over this surprise and enjoyed our stay regardless but I feel it's important to list the urgent need of renovation, so the overall experience is improved, as it is indeed long overdue.

Great price, right by the water. Tons of things to do on the resort. Again, price was pretty much unbeatable for what we got. Room was a little aged but clean. Enjoyed the stay.

Property in terrible condition. Falling apart. Pictures on Expedia do not reflect the actual condition of the condos. No internet in the room. TV was miniature, 30 years old. I was at this property 1980s an no improvements have been made since then. Beach and swimming is nice, employees are nice and cordial but that is about it...

2/10 Poor

Unfortunately, after some earlier mixed experiences at Laterna, this time we had an absolutely ghastly smelling lower floor room, the stench of moist and whatever had accumulated was really unbearable, garbage was thrown in the courtyard right outside the balcony, the bathroom was barely holding together (cracked bathtub, broken tiles, mold, the whole lot). As said, we had been in bad apartments before, but until now they had always been able to relocate us to a nicer one. Be aware, Valamar is renovating this facility building by building in winter shutdown, so getting a decent renovated apartment isn't predictable. As there was no alternative room/apartment available, we returned the key and I'm awaiting reimbursement. We are seasoned travelers and really not overly critical, but this was terrible. We will not return to this facility.

Det var virkelig lav standard og trænger i den grad til vedligeholdelse. Badeværelse lugtede rådent og var ulækkert. Vi har billeder hvis I ønsker at se dem.

Advarsel - book ikke dette sted: Ekstremt misligholdt resort, hvor standen var så dårlig at vi flyttede væk efter én af 6 bookede overnatninger. Potentielt farlig situation hvor baderumsglas sad løst, lejligheden lugtede af mug og havde tydelige tegn på fugtskader, der var hul i én dør og store afskallede plamager på en anden. Der var ikke wifi, mikrobølgeovn eller kedel, som det stod i annoncen og udendørsfaciliteterne var ødelagte og misligholdt. Der var ikke tilbud om et bedre alternativ, da alt var i samme dårlige stand.

Sämsta upplevt upplevelsen jag någonsin har haft då hotellet var som på andra världskriget och personalen var inte tillmötesgående då vi inte ville bo kvar på hotellet för att det var både smutsigt och det gick inte att bo och allt var så himla gammalt. Det luktade både fukt och trä och annan illa väldigt sunkigt var det

Upplev Sovjet

Kändes som en militäranläggning från Titos tid, renoverat senast ca 1973. Stora huslängor som mer påminner om ett miljonprojekt i en väldigt avlägsen Sovjetisk stad snarare än en semesterresort…
