Cute and accomodating!
We loved out stay in Villa Lanterna. Its about 15 mins from the downtown/old town area of Dubrovnik which was perfect for us. They had a lovely pool to cool down in and was a two min walk away from a local beach. The front desk staff were so lovely. Igor carried both of our bags up for us which was impressive and so helpful after a day of traveling and was joking with us upon arrival. It is little things like that, that really show the character of the place you're staying at. The bed was big and comfy and the shower had great pressure and great hot water! Loved this little place!

Thank you to Maya and the staff for the wonderful stay. Lovely room overlooking the bay; half board provided excellent meals in the attached restaurant; next to a small beach that was excellent swimming, we went in every day. We were picked up and dropped off at the bus depot/ferry which was so easy for us; the shuttle into Dubrovnik was a bonus -- and the driver very friendly! We would highly recommend this property, and would love to come back!

Well located budget hotel
If you are looking for a base for exploring southern Croatia this hotel is ideal. There are transport provisions but as far as we were concerned a hire car was essential - our main aim was to see as much as we could of the Dalmation coast. There are numerous attractions along the coast and Split can be visited in a day if one has a car. The restaurant (different company) attached to the hotel is excellent and friendly but for the early riser breakfast has to be taken elsewhere. We visited towards the end of the season and while we were lucky to have some hot days we also experienced rain - few holiday destinations are at there best in the rain but our car afforded us the ability to overcome this downside. All together a great holiday. Beware the government tax at billing time.

Pleasant and quiet hotel outside Dubrovnik
Had a relaxing stay at this hotel. The hotel staff were lovely and the hotel is a short walk from a small but very clean pebbly beach. This hotel is outside of the main sightseeing areas of Dubrovnik and the hotel do offer a shuttle bus at a small charge that runs 3 times a day. Apart from a handful of restaurants there was little to do in the area and no shop within walking distance but the hotel run a daily shuttle bus to a local shop too for free. All of this made it a really relaxing stay.

Fantastic, magical place.
This was my first visit to Croatia, and it definately won't be my last! I went with my friend, who had visited before but to the town of Split. It was her first time to Dubrovnik and she had told me how wonderful Croatia is. On arriving at Villa Lanterna, we were greeted immediately and our case taken up to our room. We had booked a room with a sea view, and the view across the water was stunning. We had a balcony with a table and two chairs and an airer, for our towels. The room was very clean, in fact everywhere we went was clean and we enjoyed two trips out. The staff could not do enough for us and they were always friendly with a smile and chat. We visited the Old City, in Dubrovnik which is so beautiful and walked around the Old City Walls. It makes a very interesting day out and again , I would highly recommend! Overall, it was a fantastic break and I cannot speak highly enough of Villa Lanterna and their staff. Try it, you will love it.

Nice stay in Zaton Bay area villa
Comfortable villa is quite well-situated...Zaton Bay, Stikovica..great view of the very popular (pebbly) beach for owners, visitors to that area. Shuttle driver Marko made a nice impression...very polite, professional, prompt young man from Zagreb. Loved listening to the playlist, especially including Gibonni songs, in the common area for relaxation next to the restaurant (conveniently at the villa, but owned separately). Enjoyed the company of several guests from Newcastle, England and guests from Sweden who were at the villa for the first time. If the villa's shuttle schedule does not work, then you can take Bus 12 to main port, harbor and then hop on the 1 or 1A bus to the Old City. I had to wait for my coffee...until 8 AM, but that, and lack of cable TV signal in my room, was the only inconvenience I had to 'endure' in a paradise. Recommend it and would return. I can also recommend guest taking the ferry from Old City to Lokrum Island (pack towel, wear bathing suit as you'll want to spend time in the water and on the rocks). And I visited Mostar...wow, worth it.

Spot on - quiet, picturesque and close to Dubrovnik
We stayed in a one bedroom apartment. Spacious, spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The view from our balcony was fantastic. Staff were friendly and efficient, especially Nicolai who provided so much helpful information. The shuttle bus into Dubrovnik meant we could visit outside the busy times, and we enjoyed a couple of evenings in the city, travelling back to the hotel on the midnight shuttle bus. Perfect. We also appreciated being picked up from the airport for a modest charge. The apartment sleeps four, however, the fold out chair-beds are quite short and only really suitable for chiildren. The little restaurant attached to the Villa offers tasty food at reasonable prices. Meerko and Mya are a lovely couple - my only negative observation is that service can be very slow indeed and it was disappointing to find the bar closed in the middle of the day on a couple of occasions. Villa Lanterna offers a superb base from which to visit Dubrovnik and the surrounding area, at a competitive price. If you want a quiet holiday, this is the place to come. I would certainly visit again.

Extremely friendly and helpful personal. The room was clean, and well maintained.Location is perfect with a nice view over the bay! Easy access to the beech. Shady parking for the car, and convenient bus service to and from Dubrovnik.Everything was fine, except one thing: no markings on the road for the entrance, and exit- if you do not have GPS is very difficult to find.

Do not even think
After a 9 hour travel we were given a room with three beds and one of my children was not covered. Manager was sleeping and did not look after the customers. The check out day they demanded us to evacuate at 10 am and cut the hot water to force. If you are thinking about this hotel forget about it.

Nice hotel, away from the crowd
This was a great little find just outside of Split. It's about 15 minutes north of the city, in a little quiet neighborhood right on the beach. There is also a great restaurant district within walking distance of the hotel. And the views of the Aegean are superb.

Quiet retreat outside of Dubrovnik
We stayed here the first two nights after arriving in Croatia to rest and get over our jet lag. It's a lovely small hotel on a beautiful cove on the coast north of Dubrovnik. There is a small pebble beach and two nice restaurants just down the hill, but nothing else within walking distance. The hotel provides a great breakfast, a free ride to the local market each morning and charges a reasonable rate for trips to and from Dubrovnik. If you want to be convenient to the city, this is not the place for you. However, if you want to relax and enjoy some peace and quiet, this is a great place to do it. Ask for a room on the upper floor where the view of the bay is best.
