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.

Just returned from our second family vacation here at this beautiful resort! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with such friendly and welcoming staff, who ensured a smooth and fast check in as well as providing us with detailed information about our board basis and hotel facilities. The room boasted luxurious and well designed furnishings, with adequate storage for a family of four. We had a beach access room, which I’d highly recommend! The ability to go for a relaxing swim in the private beach and walk straight into your apartment via the sliding patio doors, was just incredible! The room was cleaned daily, and to a high standard. The mini bar was also restocked daily with local beer, juice, chocolate and crisps (great for greedy teenagers and a beer loving hubby) We decided to go Ultra All Inclusive for this time around, which did not disappoint! Having access to all the amazing A La Carte restaurants and room service, made this experience so much more than our last visit. The food was always top notch at all the restaurants, including the mainbuffet. Our personal favourite as a family, was the Asian restaurant 👌although, all were incredible! Aside from this stunning resort and fantastic dining facilities….What really made our holiday so special, was the wonderful staff! Each and every person we encountered from the front of house to hospitality and the bar staff, was incredibly attentive and so super friendly. I want to personally thank all the staff at this resort for making us feel so welcome and cared for. We will see you all again soon, absolutely cannot wait to return 😬 Read less

The staff are all incredibly hard working, efficient & kind. Hats off to them especially in the July heat. The hotel is clean, lots of pools. I was there with a 4 & 2 year old - I think the aqua park was geared for older children (no small slides, smaller areas for the pre schoolers). Our 4 year old loved the infinity pool with the step around… Read more
The staff are all incredibly hard working, efficient & kind. Hats off to them especially in the July heat. The hotel is clean, lots of pools. I was there with a 4 & 2 year old - I think the aqua park was geared for older children (no small slides, smaller areas for the pre schoolers). Our 4 year old loved the infinity pool with the step around the edge to practice jumping in. Kids club had wonderful staff but there wasn’t much there really. For younger children - there’s a small climbing wall/ball pit, small softplay area & few fixed toys. More toys would be good. A fun programme of activities, each one would be available for an hour slot. But, things like making a crown/origami were done/lost interest in 5 mins. All age ranges are mixed, up to teenagers, so there were a lot of bored children left there. A lot of reliance on the tv screen to aid with entertaining the children. Perhaps when it’s cooler weather, there are more outdoors activities. Food- I could always find something my children liked in the enormous buffet. The staff also repeatedly told us to tell them if there was anything specific we would like so they could make it. Lots of high chairs available. Our children slept on a sofa bed in our room which worked well as they are still small. Beach was really close, really clean & like the pools, lots of lifeguards. My kids loved the beach. I was worried about using the beach in early July (34-36 degrees), but it was fine with long-sleeved rash top & sun hat. The sand wasn’t even that hot, we could all walk on it barefoot. The sea is lovely & warm - we spotted lots of fish, a crab & a star fish. Read less
