Bluesun Alga

Lovely hotel on the sea front. Great location, the beach is just across the promenade. Long trip from the airport though - took over one and a half hours. Tucepi is only a smallish resort and very quiet but that suited us just fine. The hotel had typical buffet style food but plenty of variety. The rooms were spotless, the staff were very polite and friendly. Can't think of anything to complain about. We have had a lovely holiday. The sea was quite warm and great for swimming, as we don't particularly like pools. Go on the trip to Krka Waterfalls- good day out and remember to take your swimwear.

We returned from a week long holiday on Monday June 4th 2018. Location: It was a good hour and three quarters from the airport at Split but the scenery on route was spectacular. The hotel is more or less on the beach front - accessible by some steps from the pool area or on ground floor near the restaurant. Many of the rooms have a sea view and the backdrop to the hotel is mountains - all stunning. It's a reasonable walk to Makarska through the woods but well worth the effort - we got the bus from the central station back though! The hotel is so close to the most amazing stretch of promenade and the beach (pebbly but real lovely and clean) has shops, restaurants, bakeries and the occasional supermarket. Hotel: We loved the Blue Alga (couple aged 50 and 11 year old daughter) - it was beautifully clean (rooms attended to every day), pool and bar areas clean and tidy, pools (indoor and outdoor) well maintained. The outdoor pools are salt water. As we went all inclusive, we sampled all the meals offer and the there was plenty of choice. Some dishes are cooked fresh in the dining hall e.g. omelettes/scrambled egg at breakfast and pasta dishes for lunch and dinner. Plenty of salads and fruit too. We're all vegetarian and we ate well. You can request a packed lunched if you are going to be out and about - ours was a bit like a deconstructed cheese sandwich with added fruit and water but we were happy with that. Beer was drinkable and the wine was reasonable - what we expect of all inclusive. Staff were friendly and helpful - sometimes we had to sign to confirm our room number, other times we didn't. Many of the guests were German, Scandinavian and English. There were families but many were older couples - it was a good mix and lovely atmosphere throughout the stay. Rooms: We seemed to have the largest balcony in room 405 - it overlooked the pool area and had a view of the sea to one side and mountains to the other. The bed settee had been put out for our daughter. As the room was L shaped, the air conditioning was more effective in one half and not the other. The bathroom was lovely as as stated before, the staff ensured that the towels were replaced daily and the room tidied. Excursions: We booked two trips through TUI - one to Mostar and the other to Dubrovnik. Both meant driving into Bosnia Herzegovina with varying delays at the checkpoint for passport checks. Sometimes these were quick, other times it added almost an hour to the journey. Not complaining though, the tour guides were very informative and gave us detailed information about the regions and history. Mostar was busy but fascinating and Dubrovnik was amazing. We would highly recommend a walk around the walls. All in all, we will definitely return and plan to stay a few days in Dubrovnik to explore more next time. The sea at Tucepi is beautifully clear, clean and warm - one of the highlights of the holiday. I think we went at the start of the season as some of the restaurants/shops were not open but there was still plenty to do and see. It was much hotter than we had imagined - most days it was easily 28 or 30 degrees. Loved it - we found an amazing place and stayed in a lovely hotel - happy days

Stayed in the Bluesun alga Hotel from 2nd June until 5th June 2018. We had a sea view room with a balcony which was lovely. Staff were very helpful. Food was just okay. We were bed and breakfast basis. Had lunch on two occasions again it was nothing special.
