Today's Croatia is changing beyond recognition. The country has very good road, air and sea infrastructure to offer. The last few years have seen intensive development of the luxury hotel industry and broadly understood luxury tourism. Modern marinas and exclusive hotel and villa complexes are springing up like the proverbial mushrooms after the rain. If so far you have associated Croatia with a family trip by car and staying overnight in roadside guesthouses, then... make yourself a cup of coffee, sit comfortably, and we invite you on a journey to discover the best hotels in Croatia!
Losinj Island – unique climate, luxurious hotels and beautiful beaches
Currently, there are several dozen hotels and tourist complexes of the highest five-star standard. The largest concentrations of the most expensive and popular luxury hotels are Istria, Hvar, Zadar and Dubrovnik. Another place worth recommending is the captivatingly beautiful island of Losijn, which until recently was a relatively unknown destination. The most sophisticated and elegant hotels on the island of Losijn in Croatia are Boutique Hotel Alhambra and Hotel Bellevue. What attracts us to this island is its wonderful atmosphere and atmosphere, where time flies in slow motion. It is a perfect place for a family holiday in Croatia, especially when we are looking for lazy rest combined with activities such as cycling or hiking.
Dubrovnik – the pearl of the Adriatic Sea and the most beautiful city in the Balkans
For many, Dubrovnik is the most beautiful city not only in Croatia, but also in the entire Balkans. It could give its beauty to at least several other cities and there would still be plenty left for it :). It is therefore not surprising that such a wonderful city can boast excellent hotels that reflect the true Croatian atmosphere. Therefore, it is worth knowing that the best hotel in the Dubrovnik area, especially recommended for holidays with children, is Sun Gardens Dubrovnik. It is located slightly outside the tourist center of Dubrovnik and offers great value for money. Families with children can stay in 2-bedroom apartments with kitchenettes and enjoy excellent food in 8 available restaurants.
Two hotels are also a great idea for a luxurious holiday in Croatia: Bellevue Dubrovnik and Excelsior Dubrovnik. The first one is a true icon of luxury. It is located on a fantastic cliff, 30 meters above Miramare Bay. We are only a few minutes' walk from Dubrovnik's Old Town. The perfect and intimate location makes Bellevue Dubrovnik an ideal choice for guests planning a weekend getaway as well as a longer, relaxing holiday. The second hotel that we highly recommend is the former royal residence, located just a few hundred meters from the Old Town. Thanks to its wonderful location and beautiful views of the Adriatic Sea, it is eagerly visited by famous personalities such as Queen Elizabeth II and Elizabeth Taylor. Only a visit to this place allows you to discover its uniqueness, especially during unforgettable walks in the gardens or while admiring the spectacular panorama of the sea and the old town, which can be seen from all three hotel restaurants.
Croatia with own transport – Istria Peninsula
The Istrian Peninsula is one of the most fashionable and most developed tourist regions in Croatia. The first point of the visit is to feel the idyllic atmosphere of the olive groves, lavender fields and picturesque vineyards here. Being one of the most famous destinations in the country, the Istrian Peninsula is perfect for a luxurious holiday in Croatia with friends or just for two. The best and recommended hotels on the Istrian Peninsula with access to the sea and the beach are:
