Valamar is set to redefine luxury hospitality in Croatia with the opening of Valamar Hotel Pical in 2026, an ambitious new hotel project located in Poreč, Istria. Positioned on the scenic Pical peninsula, just minutes from Poreč’s historic old town, this highly anticipated hotel is already attracting attention as one of the most important upcoming hotel openings in the Adriatic region.
Designed to elevate the destination’s year-round tourism offer, Valamar Hotel Pical will combine contemporary architecture, premium services, and a strong connection to nature. Surrounded by the crystal-clear Adriatic Sea and Mediterranean greenery, the hotel aims to offer guests a refined balance of relaxation, wellness, and active holiday experiences.
According to Valamar’s vision, the new hotel will focus on high-end accommodation, sustainability, and destination-driven experiences. Guests can expect spacious, modern rooms and suites, many with sea views, as well as thoughtfully designed public spaces that blend seamlessly with the coastal landscape. The project is also expected to enhance Poreč’s position as a leading luxury and lifestyle destination in Croatia.
A strong emphasis will be placed on gastronomy and wellness, with plans for elegant restaurants, bars, and spa facilities that reflect Istria’s culinary heritage and relaxed Mediterranean lifestyle. Sports and outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate proximity to walking paths, cycling routes, and the sea, while families and couples alike will benefit from Valamar’s well-known approach to tailored guest experiences.
Although Valamar Hotel Pical has not yet opened, early impressions suggest it will set new standards for luxury hotels in Istria. Its strategic location near cultural attractions, beaches, and the UNESCO-listed Euphrasian Basilica makes it ideal for both leisure travelers and guests seeking authentic local experiences.
With its planned opening in 2026, Valamar Hotel Pical is poised to become one of the most talked-about hotels in Croatia, reinforcing Valamar’s reputation as a leader in upscale hospitality and sustainable tourism development.
