Hotel Komodor

With a dreamy setting on the forested peninsula of Lapad, just a short stroll from the pebbled shore that gives way to turquoise waters, Hotel Komodor is all about the location. It’s just outside bustling Dubrovnik – which is easily reachable by bus – so if you’re all about exploring charming, historical streets and hopping on ferries to neighbouring islands, you can expect plenty of that here.

You’ll be right on the edge of a forest park, too, with a whole host of hiking trails that head towards the shoreline and boast some sweeping views that need to be seen to be believed. If your vibe is less exertion, more relaxation, there’s no shortage of that to be had, either. A slew of sun loungers and parasols are dotted around the pool, and there’s a handy bar to keep you refreshed on those sunny afternoons.
