Set just outside Poreč on Croatia’s Istrian coast, Pical Suites Valamar Collection blends a peaceful pine-fringed setting with easy access to the historic old town. A short walk brings you to a pebble beach backed by crystal-clear Adriatic waters, while the seafront path and tourist train make getting into Poreč simple for evenings among cobbled streets, basilicas and waterfront bars.

Expect a relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere with a distinctly Mediterranean feel – rocky and pebble beaches, deep-blue sea, and views across the bay to the old town. It’s a great base whether you’re here for heritage, boat trips or simple beach days.

Dining is a real highlight here, with five distinct restaurants and seven bars to choose from:

Parenzana Restaurant – The main buffet restaurant, serving breakfast and dinner with show-cooking stations and a wide choice of international, Italian and Croatian favourites. Highchairs and a kids’ buffet corner keep younger guests happy.

Fine Dining Restaurant (Michelin-starred chef–led) – A polished à la carte venue where creative tasting menus and refined local ingredients take centre stage at dinner. Gentlemen are usually asked to wear long trousers, and beachwear isn’t permitted.

Fogo By Bekal – Laid-back yet stylish à la carte spot right by the beach, blending international, Italian and local dishes for lunch and dinner with Adriatic views.

Mezzino Beach Bites – Casual beachside eatery for light lunches and local snacks, ideal between swims.

Oliva Grill – Poolside à la carte venue with show cooking, perfect for relaxed lunches of grilled dishes, salads and Italian-inspired favourites, with kids’ menus and highchairs available.

Bars include:
• Aria Beach Bar, Barka Beach Bar & Sundance Beach Bar – three beachfront hangouts (seasonal hours) for chilled drinks between sea dips.
• Two pool bars – open seasonally for ice-cold drinks and cocktails by the water.
• Nota Piano Bar – a stylish lobby bar open from early till late, ideal for morning coffee or pre-dinner drinks.
