Amadria Park Hotel Jakov (ex Amadria Park Hotel Jakov - Solaris)

Amadria Park Hotel Jakov is everything you need for a fantastic family holiday! Next to Dalmatia’s biggest waterpark and steps from the beach, it’s full of fun and relaxation for families of all ages - and that includes teenagers. You’ll find this holiday haven in Amadria Park’s Sibenik complex, which is on Croatia’s popular Adriatic Coast.

You’ll be in easy reach of the seaside resort of Sibenik, with its restaurants, bars and cafes, as well as the historic old town, bustling waterfront and cafe-lined squares. You’ll also only be about 16km from the lagoons and rivers of Krka National Park. Or, gather the clan for a boat trip to the coastal islands of Kornati National Park.

And don’t miss your chance to visit Dalmatia Ethno Village, the living museum right here at Amadria Park Sibenik. You’ll get to see traditional foods like soparnik (chard-filled flatbread) being prepared by artisans, and book a table for an authentic Croatian meal. That’s just one of several places to eat across this five-hotel complex, from mouthwatering street food and gourmet dining on Mediterranean Square to Hotel Jakov’s own international buffet restaurant (breakfast and dinner).

Aquapark Dalmatia is another must-do. With six slides, a lazy river, a cascading fortress, kids’ fairytale cave, pools and more, it’s well worth the entry fee! For more splash-based fun, head across to the water playground at Family Beach (charge applies). Or, unwind at Hotel Jakov’s two freeform pools, where there’s a special section for little ones. Drinks and snacks are available from the terrace bar.

For complete chill-out time, though, you have to try the totally glam En Vogue Beach Club! Stretch out on the pool deck right by the sea or on the private beach, and take in stunning views of the Sibenik archipelago. It’s almost as relaxing there as at the tranquil Mediterranean Garden spa, where you’ll find saunas, steam rooms and indoor pools. How about a sensational four-hand Thai massage for the ultimate holiday treat?

If energetic activities are more your scene, there’s plenty to keep your heart rate up at the sports centre. Join football, basketball and beach volleyball teams, have a knockabout on the badminton and tennis courts, try a street workout session or hire bikes for a family adventure. Plus, the spectacular Pirate Adventure minigolf course will get you all playing together.

For the kids, there’s Mini Club and Summer Club - think special events, dancing and great entertainment, all with the help of the hotel’s fun mascot Solarko and a team of other characters. The perfect chance to make holiday friends!

As for your room, most are designed with family comfort in mind. Views from your French or full balcony are of the park and gardens, the courtyard, or the sea. Take your pick from extra-large double rooms (ideal for couples), family rooms with bunk beds and a separate bedroom for parents, connected family rooms that are perfect for older kids, and superior suites (for up to 2 adults and 2 children under 12) with a full balcony and sea view.

Amadria Park Hotel Jakov also offers babysitting, laundry services and parking, as well as WiFi.
