A lovely hotel with very friendly staff who were very attentive. The beach area was lovely to get a decent breeze where as the higher pools were hotter. Easy to get taxi’s into town, or walking via the promenade into Lapad was great. An excellent range of restaurants at the hotel and locally. Would go again
Great hotel in lovely peaceful location, a 10 minute bus/taxi ride from Dubrovnik old town. Really very good facilities including a number of pools, easy access to a cordoned off area for sea swimming ( and jumping!). The Croatian coast is very picturesque with crystal clear water.
Great hotel in peaceful location. A 10 minute bus or taxi ride to Dubrovnik old town - definitely not walkable. Facilities at the hotel were very good with a number of pools and easy access to a cordoned off area for wild water swimming. There is a lovely easy coastal walk along a purpose built path with great views to Lapad where there are restaurants and shops. Hotel would benefit from having some water stations given the heat.
It was a bit challenging finding a room since we were on a trip with a group and the hotel denied several attempts by our group travel agent Gate1 to secure a room night, but through Hotels.com we booked and eventhough we had to move rooms since we had different room types, the experience was quite good overall and easy to get into Dubrovnik on the 6 bus.
What a lovely resort, very clean, friendly staff, excellent food, modern, great facilities, beds very comfortable. View was fantastic, worth having a sea view with balcony. Will definitely return to Dubrovnik and stay at the resort.
Lovely hotel(s) right on the water. Lapad is a quiet neighborhood that gives off a tropical vibe. The entire Royal grounds is large and you can walk the water for two miles while passing plenty of restraints to stop and eat. The only grounds I will stay when visiting Dubrovnik
The property is great with excellent sea views and convenient coastal walkway to nearby restaurants and bars. Great spa facilities as well with the indoor pool particularly convenient for the cooler days. Breakfast is great and good options for dining. Upgrading to the dinner inclusive package is probably a good option as dining out is very expensive considering what you are actually getting.
