The hotel

For travellers who aren’t satisfied with a simple ‘one pool, one bar, one restaurant’ kind of holiday, this island escape overflows with choice. Its private white sand beach accompanies seven fabulous swimming pools, including a pirate-themed aqua zone for children to cool off on sun-soaked Marjan Island. It has 12 places to drink and dine, from family-style Italian Vespa to the gastropub food and fun of The Anchor, and the Arabic snacks and shisha of ShoFee Rooftop Bar. And, while the beachfront setting, eforea spa, and contemporary styling of Doubletree by Hilton Resort & Spa Marjan Island attract couples and groups of friends, families get the bonus of the kids’ club’s climbing wall, Arcade Zone, and huge playground with its climbing structures, trampolines and shaded toddler area.

Our family enjoyed our stay at this hotel in November 2023. We arrived quite early and the reception was willing to arrange our early check-in as a complimentary gesture. Our room was cleaned every day and the bedding was changed every three days. Maids did their job perfectly. The common areas like pools, the beach and the spa were also clean and tidy. In general, the hotel’s staff was very friendly and welcoming. In particular, I would like to note the outstanding and excellent attitude and service of two young ladies - Aidana and Elnura who have always been very helpful and kind to our requests. In general, I would strongly recommend this hotel to anyone. Read less
