Villa Mario

We had a great stay at Villa Mario and the location was great. Easy parking and a amazing view from the room.

This hotel is hard to review because it’s in a beautiful location, the room was very nice, the balcony was sensational, and the breakfast was delicious but… There was no reception desk to check in, we checked in at the restaurant with the waiter. The waiter showed us to our room, which was a double room when I had paid for a quad. The guy said he had to call his manager and check with him. I had booked this room online and had paid for it. After being shown three different smaller rooms, we finally got a room with two queen beds. The room was nice, spacious, and had an absolutely beautiful beachfront view. The breakfast in the morning was really wonderful. We had a tray of cheeses and meats with fresh bread and honey, jelly, butter. Nutella, etc. We also had a choice of what type of coffee we wanted and orange juice. In addition to all that we were able to have a made to order omelette or any types of eggs. We also had croissants and a plate of fruit. After breakfast, we went out to explore split and were gone the whole day. Upon arriving back at the hotel we discovered our room had not been cleaned. There was no phone in the room to even call and inform anyone about this. We told the waiter at the restaurant the next morning that our room had not been made up and he said that the housekeeper had called in sick and he was sorry. I really like the Billa Mario a lot but the management is quite lacking.

The hotel needs hooks in the bathroom to hang towels on. There were no tissues. There was a very bad, ammonia-type smell in the bathroom.

Very nice place with good flexible service. And the best beach we experienced in the area. All other places have big stones (hand size) at the beach. They had put a layer of small stones/sand og the beach. We had to leave early in the morning 2 days to atend a boat trip. And they had breakfast ready for us 45min before normal breakfast time ! The food is very good. We noticed that in the evning they sail out and sets nets to catch the fish for the next day meny !!!! A littel advice to visitors, when you are going to Split centrum. Reserve ekstra time in the morning, the traffic rush hour creates traffic jams on the road to Split.
