Nice resort overall, relaxed and helpful staff but property itself in serious need of a refurb.

The accommodation itself needs maintenance, it's however at a great location and we loved being able to dive into the Adriatic sea within 50m of our doorstep!

What a wonderful stay! It has been 20 years since me and my family's last holiday in Lanterna and we were happy to find out the place is still as beautiful, quiet and safe as we remember. Holidays were fantastic and we made the most of it when relaxing and recharging, what was our trip's main purpose. However, we were utterly disappointed to discover that condition of the apartments was very poor and far from the pictures advertised. Sadly, instead of receiving proper maintenance / upgrade over the years, the apartments were left to its own demise. Paint peeling of the wall and windows, windows and doors not shutting properly, dated bathroom and furniture.. So much money collected from visitors over the years, yet zero investment to the property maintenance - heartbreaking. Cleanliness could also be improved, finding a layer of dust on the bed frames or on the kitchen counter was not pleasant. We got over this surprise and enjoyed our stay regardless but I feel it's important to list the urgent need of renovation, so the overall experience is improved, as it is indeed long overdue.

Es war die schlimmste Erfahrung in unserem ganzen Leben. Wir hatten diese Unterkunft wegen der Nähe zum Lanterna 5 Sterne Camping Resort gebucht, aber damit hat es absolut nichts zutun. Wir waren in einer abgeranzten, verdreckten, alten, muffigen, verschimmelten und voller Tierchen und Käfer besetzten Absteige! Es waren die schlimmsten 7 Tage dort zu übernachten. Finger weg! Es ist eine Katastrophe. Wir werden nun alle rechtlichen Schritte gegen Expedia einleiten und vorgehen. Nichts ist wie beschrieben, alle Fotos nicht der Wahrheit entsprechend. Nachdem ich Fotos von Schimmel, Tieren aus dem Bett krabbeln und weiteres an Expedia geschickt habe, meinte die Dame sie könne nichts machen, es sei halt einfach nur dreckig!!!! Wir sind immernoch schockiert und werden alles dafür tun um andere zu warnen nicht mehr bei Expedia zu buchen und schon garnicht diese Unterkunft!!!

Läget och alla fina badplatser samt strandpromenaden och närheten till restauranger, var det som var bäst med det här stället. Men kan man stå ut med att rummen är väldigt slitna samt utan AC, kan jag rekommendera Lanterna just för bad och restaurangbesök.

Posizione ottima e mare bellissimo per chi ama gli scogli. Facilità di accesso al mare con scalette o direttamente dalla riva. Silenziosissima, ottima per famiglie o relax.
Stefano, 8-night trip

Het personeel was vriendelijk, de omgeving prachtig en het strand was proper. Het enigste is wel dat de appartementen dringend een renovatie beurt nodig hebben. De badkamer was eigenlijk niks goed meer. De keuken is ook dringend aan vervanging nodig. En eventueel wel airco plaatsen. Het was super warm op de kamers.

Wir gehen schon seit Jahrzehnten in diese Anlage, es ist immer sehr sauber aber leider auch sehr alt. In der Parkanlage sind die Fußwege kaputt, rund um die Rezeption ist die Anlage sehr in die Jahre gekommen, teils verwahrlost und renovierungsbedürftig. Wifi auch nur bedingt vorhanden.

Interessante scoperta
Comodo e grande resort, parcheggio facile e comodo. Abbiamo soggiornato in appartamenti da 3 posti letto, non sono recenti ma sono puliti e hanno il necessario per tutto (cucina equipaggiata). Tantissime spiagge per tutti i gusti (ciottoli, scogli, sabbia..) con o senza ombrelloni e sdraio, mare pulitissimo, zero affollamenti. Ristoranti interni con proposte anche vegetariane e vegane, prezzi buoni. Possibilità di soggiornare anche nell’ hote o in appartamenti più grandi su più piani o ville.

spiagge e mare incantevole; non mi è piaciuto l'affollamento ..alcune persone non rispettavano il distanziamento e mascherine nessun controllo in tal senso

Fantastische kust
Het complex met de appartementen is behoorlijk gedateerd, maar bedden en douche waren goed. De bedden comfortabel. Het was hygiënisch Strand langs het hele complex was fantastisch!
