Mövenpick BalaLand Resort Lake Balaton

We had a fantastic experience! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted warmly by KC at the reception, who made our check-in smooth and welcoming. The facilities were top-notch with beautiful views of Lake Balaton and plenty of activities for the child in the kid's club. The rooms were child friendly design and clean. The dinner was impressive offering a wide variety of delicious options. We also enjoyed the family park which was well-maintained and never felt overcrowded. We highly recommend this hotel for anyone looking for a relaxing getaway. Thank you to KC and the rest of the staff for making our stay memorable. We will definitely be back!:)

I haven't yet done check out so maybe the price will scare me. That being said my kids loved it here, lots of kids things to do for children (in the summer) food was great. and room were good. AC didn't cook to reception supplied us with both a fan and an portable cooling unit. They plan to renovate the entire air conditioning as well. Special shout out to the German Carlson who is the head chef. I enjoyed all my meals here. Everyday is food from a different region and I quite enjoyed it. I have put on way too much weight on this vacation. Also shout out to Vin who works in the restaurant, he was my server the first day and he took care of my every night I came in. He even noticed that my daughter likes to eat with a pink spoon and started keeping it for her. I was supposed to leave in 5 days, changed my flight and stayed for 10 nights. I will visit again yearly until my children are too old to enjoy.

It is a relative new and the only five star hotel on the south shore of the lake Balaton. The prices are high. The cons: It is early afternoon, and I am sitting in my uncleaned room. The outside temperature is 40°C and the aircondition hardly works. It's max capacity 26,5°C. We were informed about this on our arrival at the front desk. When this hotel was built the reeds on the shore were extinct. This extinction is against all environment protection, because the reeds filter and clean the water of the lake. The extintion was perfunctionary, the reeds are growing back, and it is rather difficult to get in the water. the pros: The rooms are comfortable and well equipped. The bathroom is spacious The hotel is a paradise for young couples with children, There are big and well equipped playgrounds and in- and outdoor pools with numerous sildes. This is why the garden and the restaurant is rather noisy. We booked breakfast and diner. The food is plenty and in excellent quality. The garden is big, and there is a lot of sunbeds and umbrellas. All in all, for grown ups, and elderly this hotel is recomended in late spring or in the early autumn.

Great hotel for kids, the rooms are perfectly tailored for children, the water park is excellent. The food is average, the service is okay but nothing more, and the significant downside is that there are no activities for children after 6:00 PM. No activities for children, the pool is closed, the playroom is closed, the kids club is closed, there are no activities in the lobby. And that's very disappointing because the kids get bored after 6:00 PM.

So we had an amazing time! Family of 2 adults and 2 children (5,1.9), here are my pros and cons: Pros: Rooms - amazing! They thought about everything for both kids and parents (the nets are there for a reason - keep it shut). We took the suite and also stayed in a small room for our late checkout - both are perfect (design, comfortable..) Food - perfect, every evening takes you to a different country around the world, love it. They serve breakfast and dinner. Loved the kids buffet (though their food was always the same) Service - mostly very good and prompt Pools and waterparks - all warmed up, for all ages - we all loved it! Lifeguards all around the place which is amazing! Lake - lake balaton is beautiful, there is a small sand beach and an access from another non sandy area. Kids playground - indoor and outdoor, both are new very equipped! It’s a shame people don’t read signs and don’t take their shoes off, staff should be more strict about it Kids club - cute and lots of activities around the clock Location - there is a supermarket close by, the ferry to Tihany is also close (by car.. maybe by foot as well) but I’m not sure you’ll want to leave this place Parking - underground parking is available Spa - had a great treatment and relaxation time there ——————- Cons: A-i-r c-o-n-d-i-t-i-o-n-i-n-g - the thing that might prevent me from coming back! The air conditioning around all areas and inside the rooms did not handled the heat of august! We had to use fans, and we basically suffered from the terrible heat. Room - a wooden lion is located above the kids bed. It fell on my kids’ back, he has a nasty bruise. When I told the receptionist she just said - i will tell it to my supervisor. If this falls on a sleeping kid there could be a major issue here! Be ware ! Restaurant - The food and service were terrific, but the variety of food - not so much. As a vegetarian, after a week - I needed something else Cleaning - the outdoor facilities has tons of spider webs, it might be due to shortage of staff at this point, but I’m curious to see what will be there next year.
