There were four of us there, and I have to honestly say we were very satisfied in every respect. The service was excellent, the staff extremely friendly and multilingual. Everything was very clean and well-maintained. I particularly like the fact that the prices were absolutely reasonable for the quality offered – something you can't take for granted these days.

Nestled between the sea and the modern hotel building the beach bar offers a great environment for relaxation and fine food, enjoy the dining with a gentle breeze and a glass of wine and you feel divine👍
The service is very professional, we had a very personal attention by Mr Umesh trying to make every guest feel at their best!

Amazing new restaurant (part of the newly opened 5-star hotel, The Isolano) offering menu that includes traditional local dishes as fresh fish, lamb from Cres, squid and prawns to Ribeye, and Striploin steaks, that are delicious, one of the best we had.
The location is one of the most beautiful on Cres, situated near the sea and perfect for enjoying the sunset while dining. I highly recommend this great restaurant, it was one of the best dining experiences we've had so far.

The Creski Beach Bar on Cres is an absolute gem! The atmosphere is laid-back and welcoming, perfect for a relaxing day by the sea. But what truly sets this place apart is the food — the kitchen delivers at an impressively high level. Every dish we tried was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. A must-visit spot if you're looking for great vibes and top-quality cuisine on the island!"The location is one of the most beautiful on Cres, situated near the sea and perfect for enjoying the sunset while dining.
