Gioia beach Budva
Croatia
Arvostelut
Excellent beach club, probably the best in Budva. The sun beds are very good quality and well spread out. Not at all close to other people on the beach. Easy to book on Instagram. Waiter service to your sun beds is available. Toilets, showers and changing rooms are all attached to the bar area. The bar is very good with a wide range of drinks. There is also a good lunch menu with sandwiches, pizzas and an amazing fruit platter. We visited 3 times on our week’s holiday to Budva. Finally a mention for the staff who were all very friendly and helpful. Gioia beach has been one of the highlights of our holiday. Highly recommended
We visited this beach twice, unfortunately we couldn’t come more. Prices range from 30 to 50 euros for a pair of sunbeds, which is quite reasonable given the comfort and the fact that it is away from the main beach. Importantly, there are changing rooms equipped with a mirror, hooks, and a chair, as well as warm-water showers. You can leave your car in the free Yaz Beach parking, it’s about a five-minute walk from there.
This location is simply awful. From the parking lot, you have to walk about 15 minutes under the scorching sun, passing through crowds of people. Getting into the sea is difficult because of the large rocks, so every swim feels like a challenge. The food is very limited—mostly sandwiches and pizza. There are no healthy options like salads or grilled dishes. This isn’t really a beach club; it’s just a row of sunbeds by the sea. The service is terrible. Overall, this place is not worth your time.
It takes a very short walk (5 min) from the Jaz parking to get to this beach. In comparison to all the other beaches on Jaz, the sunbeds on this beach are more separated so it’s a bit more comfortable and it’s not packed with people. The service was great, one of the workers there explained the sun bed cost (which is a bit higher during peak season, e.g. first row of sun beds is 40e, second row is 35e and the third row is 30e), he immediately told us where the toilet and the dressing rooms are and advised us that a waiter will be with us soon if we’d like to order food or drinks. Food and drinks are not that expensive and the atmosphere is nice - music is not too loud and you can still relax. FYI this beach has rocks all sizes so bring appropriate footwear if you’re not used to that!
