The location and room were fantastic Staff were all extremely friendly, acommodating and helpful. We’d chosen to walk here from the ferry on the other side of the island, so the relaxed checkin with a small glass of local sparkling wine was very welcome and set the tone for our 2 nights here. We were able to check-in early which was very much appreciated. The room was spotlessly clean. The wow factor was that it overlooked the sea and we could hear the water at night - very relaxing. After reading other reviews we brought our own tea so that we could enjoy a cuppa before breakfast on our balcony. I loved the small touches to make our stay so enjoyable- our bed had been made, bin emptied and the floor mopped etc while were at breakfast. We used the hotel Kayaks to see the Blue Caves and lighthouse and swam in the little bay near the hotel. We also spent a day walking around the beautiful, peaceful island with its stunning views of the Adriatic from the pine tree forest and so much different wild flora to appreciate. Thoroughly recommend. Wish we’d stayed longer.

Everything was good

Such a lovely place to stay. Communication was great pre arrival, we were greeted from the ferry with the buggy to the other side of the island. Hotel is lovely, but it was the friendliness of the staff and level of service that made it such a special place to stay. If you want a relaxing holiday to swim and walk then the island is perfect, no cars, lovely sun sets.

Food at the hotel was superb however if you'd like to make use of the kitchen in your room and self cater, there's very limited food choice in the shop 20 minute walk away. Advise bringing food over from the mainland supermarket.

We LOVED this hotel! The nicest place we’ve ever stayed, worth every penny. We stayed for our anniversary and it felt so special. The whole island is walkable in around 45 minutes. We saw starfish and octopus whilst snorkling! One of the only sandy beaches and seabeds we found in Croatia, brilliant for swimming. Used the rooftop pool a couple of tomes and had it all to ourselves. Brilliant friendly and kind staff. Loved every minute!!

Ordered a couple of smoothies, which for €11 were not very nice. But that would be our only complaint!

The location is beautiful. The sea is safe and sandy. The hotel is on the waters edge. The staff are friendly, helpful and extremely hard working. The apartment was clean and comfortable and super quiet. The food is, in the main very good and executed well, especially the scallops and tuna. The lunchtime menu had simpler options which were welcome. Breakfast was really delicious, fresh fruit and excellent omelettes and perfect poached eggs. I love the intimate feel of this hotel and the laid back vibe with a touch of class. The private transfers by speed boat are a great start/end to the stay.

The evening restaurant menu could offer some simpler options. The cabana beds are super comfy, there could be a couple more to accommodate everyone by the sea. The pool area had no shade so was not an option as the weather was unseasonably hot.

This hotel is really beautiful-a gorgeous location and very peaceful. The staff are wonderful - very friendly and helpful. Loved the private boat transfer from Dubrovnik. Complete relaxation.

The restaurant is lovely; all dishes we tried were excellent although there weren’t many other options open on the island when we visited and it is nice to have a change of scene sometimes. Also there is just one local shop on the other side of the island for basic supplies (crisps/drinks etc) it would have been lovely to make a coffee or the odd pasta lunch in the apartment for example, but it was tricky to get hold of things like that.

The views were amazing. We decided to take the speed boat transfer from Dubrovnik, which resulted in a very special start to the holiday. Kayaks can be used FOC by hotel guests. We kyaked along the coast one afternoon, which was lovely. The apartments were clean modern and spacious .

It would be useful if some basic provisions were sold at the hotel. We stocked up on food when we visited Lopud by ferry one day. Some additional parasols would be useful for those guests who prefer not to sit out on the direct sun. The sun beds set up by the hotel are stylish but don’t provide enough shade.

Really beautiful location. Staff were great - shout out to Milan, who made our stay special (and not just because of his mojitos which are excellent), but also to Abhishek and Sidharth who really looked after us, and in fact the whole team including the manager. Rooms were a really good size, clean and beds very comfortable. Amazing views of sea, mountains and if you're an early bird like me, sunrises. Great aircon and sound proofing (we didn't realise there'd been a large storm one night because we didn't hear anything, and we never heard our neighbours either). Food absolutely delicious with a good wine list. Reasonably pricey but if you want something simpler there's a good restaurant just the other side of the bay (4 min walk). Waters around the island incredibly clear and warm. Immediate access to the crystal clear sea from the hotel down steps, or slightly further along bay from (small) sandy shoreline. Mainly sand underfoot, with a few pebbles (no need for beach shoes). Water reasonably shallow (can easily stand) nearest the shore, then only a very short walk til it's a swimming depth. The bay is really quiet until early afternoon, when a few private boats come in from Dubrovnik - especially on a Sunday. There is a regular ferry to Dubrovnik/the other islands from the other side of Kolocep (a 20 minute walk), but we didn't use it as we'd already been to Dubrovnik and took a private boat to the other Elafati islands. Latter highly recommended to see the Blue Caves and some amazing swimming/snorkelling. We also did a lovely walk (maybe an hour) to the lighthouse (but didn't walk down to it) and back. All in all, this hotel is an excellent place if you'd like peace and quiet and a chance to recharge your batteries, which is exactly what we were after - and got. Also for those who'd prefer to travel light, we had one load of washing done for us at the hotel.

It would have been helpful to have a little more information in the room pack - eg a map of the island, ferry times, list of restaurants etc. However, reception had these to hand when we asked, so not really an issue. Also I doubt that very many people use the (good) room cooking facilities as the only shop on the island is very small, and yet there isn't a room mini bar. We would have happily pre-paid for, and been grateful for, a small hamper (tea, coffee, some wine and snacks), had that been an option. Finally, we felt the staff could have been a little more proactive - asking what we were planning for the day and if they could help. However, it could also be that they just wanted people not to be hassled - they were brilliant when we did ask for help/information.

A real hidden gem in a secluded and quiet cave. Incredibly peaceful location with only one bar and one fish restaurant in this small little bay with very clear water. Hotel is vey well run with a simple and nice design. Pleasant roof top pool.

Nothing. Some might find the location too remote from the main settlement only reachable by a 20mn walk but that's part of the island charm which is overall very low key. No car only one tiny supermarket

Extremely attentive and friendly staff that made sure we were comfortable from the moment we stepped foot on the island. The hotel is right on the beach and I loved watching the sunrise from my room, then having breakfast every day right by the sea. The amenities are new and clean, breakfast is varied and tasty. Thanks to Mario, Katarina and Darko (among others) we spent a wonderful vacation and cannot wait to go back.

Nothing, everything was perfect.

We enjoyed sunbathing on the very comfy sun lunges by the sea. Our room was big and had everything you needed. We have used the balcony to watch the sunrise and sunset. The staff was super nice all the time both during the day and evening. The food was delicious and great cocktails to enjoy in the evening or while sunbathing. It was a very relaxing holiday and this is what we wanted.
