Hi Bridget,
I’ll rather stay at Valamar hotels & resorts, as for me they are just better looking accommodations, and also they have the best buffet breakfast and dinner in the entire Istria. However, Laguna properties are really set in a resort, 5 km away from the town, and there are lots of greenery around. Valamar Diamant Residence is closer to the town, and there is a nice seaside forest promenade from the residence to the town (15 min walk), and Galijot is just a bit further down; but basically you pass through the same paths.
Can you recommend Velmar residence villa vs apartment Laguna giolajti? Like self catering, nature walk to old town Porec. Which one is nicer? Thank you.
