    I can honestly say I really cannot think of anything that could be improved.

    First of all was the friendliness and attention by all the staff which was first class. Breakfast was a pleasure and often lasted well over an hour with no limit in orders for coffee or cooked items. The views from the balconies out to sea were excellent. The rooms were comfortable and well provisioned. For the first visit we had suites which included walk in showers which were exceptional.

    Beautiful as the pictures! The locally sourced dining experience was excellent, and the staff expertly guides you through the menu with local pride for sourcing and preparation. The staff care for the guests. The little beach and deck made easy access to the water and SUP’s and kayaks by the hour allow for coastal exploring. Easy walk to Opatija where we are one dinner.

    The bathroom tub. Too high to get in and out of safely

    I liked everything about the property. The view was amazing. The room was spacious and clean. The food was excellent and the staff was so friendly and helpful The only negative for me(and perhaps older travelers) was the bathtub. It was difficult to get in and out of safely. Perhaps a lower tub would help or additional grab bars

    Outstanding Luxury Boutique Hotel
    • Leisure trip

    • Superior Suite with Sea View

    The ONLY thing was having a room key attached to a small block of wood. We had the pleasure of meeting one of the owner’s sons, Filip, who explained the Navis = Ship concept and if a key were to drop in the water it would float because of the wood. Anyway, a key card or app based room key system is in the works.

    Navis is a boutique hotel with only 44-rooms. We stayed in a 1-bed suite on the 4th floor which is the top floor. The room is spacious, has a king-size bed, industrial modern style furnishings and an outstanding view of the sea. We had a bottle of Prosecco, water and a lovely bowl of assorted fruit awaiting for us in the room. I chose to include breakfast with our stay and it was incredible. In addition to the breakfast buffet options like bread, cheese, cold cuts, cereal, assorted juices, coffee/cappuccino fruit cups, prosecco, etc. Navis offers a separate menu with prepared to order options like omelettes, Eggs Benedict, avocado toast, sausage, etc. also included. See menu photos I included in my review. Breakfast is incredible and the chef/kitchen is very accommodating in creating options for dietary restricted guests. We had two vegans out of five people in our group and both were happy with the dinner meals that were prepared for them and the food available for them at breakfast. Lastly, which was pretty cool, our family in Croatia was able to pick us up in their boat from the Navis dock. What was truly impressive is a Navis staff person came down from the hotel to assist with guiding the boat to the dock and lend a hand getting us into the boat safely.

    Everything was perfect—beautiful views, peaceful atmosphere, and incredibly kind staff. I loved every moment.

    Hotel Navis is a truly magical place—perched like a ship above the sea, with every room offering breathtaking views of the Adriatic and the soothing sound of waves echoing through the air. Waking up here feels like floating on water. The architecture blends effortlessly into the landscape, combining modern design with natural beauty. What makes it even more special is the incredibly kind and attentive staff who make you feel at home from the moment you arrive. A peaceful, elegant escape I’ll never forget—and can’t wait to return to.

    The room's lighting is very subtle, and I missed a good reading light. It is pretty impossible to read in the room when it gets dark outside.

    It is a beautiful hotel just above the sea with splendid views over the bay. The breakfast is delicious - you can order a variety of delicacies. The location is perfect if you'd like peace and tranquillity from the crowds. It is about 10 minutes on foot from the centre of Volosko, the closest village with bars and shops.
