This property boasts one of the best views, absolutely breathtaking. However, the elevator was out of service for a couple of days, which is unusual for a pricey hotel to not be able to respond promptly. The water in both pools is not heated, which is not ideal for children. There’s no kids’ area, and the buffet is small and the food is not very good. You’re paying for the views, not for anything else. The room is spacious, and the cleaning service is superb. However not a 5 star in my opinion.

This is an excellent hotel choice for anyone coming to Dubrovnik that wants a luxurious relaxing experience on the beach with the option to have quick transportation to the old town walls and other areas of Dubrovnik. The views along the coastline are stunning, the beach has many umbrellas and chairs with full service, and the rooms are spacious with a large balcony overlooking the coastline. The breakfast buffet had many options including a fresh omelet station. I haven’t seen many breakfast setups as large as this one with as many options and the food was delicious. All of the service members were polite and helpful. I would definitely come back to stay here again!

Staff were excellent, extremely kind and helpful. All staff went above and beyond to make our staff exceptional! The entrance to the hotel is outstanding with an incredible view of the sea the minute you walk in. We were greeted extremely well upon our arrival - extreme apologies I’m not sure of the lady’s name. She showed us to our V level room, which was readily prepared with complimentary gifts to celebrate our wedding anniversary and big birthday. She showed us how we select a scent of our choice from our room and we were greeted with a wonderful sea view. This wasn’t an interrupted sea view as there were lots of trees and a view of a car park but the sea view was wonderful all the same. We had breakfast every day where there was a good range of options. The lift from our area of the hotel was slightly temperamental but we only had to travel a couple of floors so wasn’t a problem for us. Whilst there, we had spa treatments which were excellent and used the hotel pool. As part of the V Level package we had use of a cabana, just be mindful this is first come first serve - there are more available around the beach area. Dubrovnik has one sandy beach which requires a ferry trip all other beaches are pebbly. We had a meal in the Momenti restaurant with a 5 course tasting menu and bottle of wine. Our service was excellent from Martin and we had an outstanding sunset view completely to ourselves! Overall an incredible city and hotel stay. Thank you all!❤️ Highly recommend!

Overall a very pleasant experience. Awesome views, no better place to enjoy a cup of coffee in the morning than their terrace. Lacks some of the detail and abundance I would have expected from a five-star hotel.

Exceptional staff, excellent food, all the facilities you could hope for, restaurants, bars, spa, gym and the elevator takes you straight to the beach. V-Level was well worth the upgrade. Vedran, Ivan & Marija looked after us so well throughout the trip. Bus to old town right outside the hotel that leaves every 10mins for just a couple of Euros. Would come back in a heartbeat.

The property on first impression is wow. However when you drop to other floors same can’t be said. Dark dreary poorly light corridors and a bad state of repair. The beach is extremely poor heavily soiled mattress, heavy duty machinery operating when trying have early morning sunbathe. We even had someone unfortunately come in and bin raid for plastic bottles. The beach is open to everyone not private. We spent our time at the pool which was much better standard but does need some attention. The room itself is clean but had some issues dents in walls, ripped wall paper. One positive was the staff in the restaurant they were friendly and attentive and the food variety was to good standard. I wouldn’t rate this as five star. The hotel needs a consistent standard throughout the property to achieve 5 stars.

Uber, Taxi access. 3 opportunities for improvement: a) convert a portion of the beach to sand vs small rocks, b) heat the outdoor pool, c) add an ice machine for hotel guests on each floor.
