HOLIDAY HIGHLIGHTS
Beautiful pedestrianised old town > Beach and stunning islands nearby > A cultural gem
Visitors have long been enchanted by the beautiful medieval city of Dubrovnik, which was recently awarded UNESCO World Heritage Site status. Fully restored to its former glory, this Adriatic gem is one reason Conde Nast Traveller has voted Croatia ‘the 21st century destination’.
Narrow cobbled alleys line the main pedestrian street, the Stradun, and evenings are spent listening to live bands and free opera recitals, sipping on drinks from local bars, or eating in restaurants lining the harbour.
The walls that surround the city form an ideal walking tour, with cosy cafes perched precariously on the rocks, and this is the ideal spot from which to see the sun setting over the Elaphiti Islands.
Dubrovnik has a remarkable history: an independent, merchant republic for 700 years until it was occupied by Napoleon, the city traded with Turkey and India in the East and had trade representatives in Africa. Modern Dubrovnik is not only beautiful, but chic and cosmopolitan, with a lively nightlife.
Stay at the five-star Grand Villa Argentina, with its prime seafront location and views across to the Elaphiti Islands, or at the Villa Dubrovnik, also on the seafront and within easy walking distance of the historic old town. Alternatively, the boutique hotel Villa Kvaternik, set in the beautiful seaside town of Cavtat, 15 minutes from Dubrovnik, makes an ideal base from which to explore the Croatian riviera.
