Fodor's Expert Review Valamar Diamant Hotel & Residence

Located a mile south of Old Town Poreč in the Brulo neighborhood, this large hotel is surrounded by pine forest but still close to the sea and a favorite for travelers looking for an activity-rich vacation. Modern styling and a new emphasis on sports and wellness have given this local favorite a new life, including the introduction of their Balance Mediterranean Spa and professional physiotherapy treatments. Great sports facilities—tennis courts; covered multipurpose sports hall for basketball, handball, fitness gym, or mini-soccer; diving center; bike rentals; indoor and outdoor pools; and beach volleyball courts—make this hotel an ideal choice for travelers seeking active holidays. Additionally, the hotel has its signature Maro family services and facilities, including playrooms, a cinema, and a multimedia game lounge.
