Lafodia Sea Resort
This solid lodging option rises from a perfect pebble beach up a hillside overlooking the stunning bay of Lopud. Everything faces the sea, from the terraces of each room to the infinity pool to La Baja Restaurant (one of eight bars and restaurants on-site), where you can have a breezy lunch on the terrace. Elsewhere around the large but manageable property, the on-site Waterhill Wellness Spa is a sanctuary with its Turkish hammam and saunas, infinity Jacuzzi, and outdoor whirlpools. There are hiking trails that start right outside the hotel, and there's no better way to finish an afternoon than with a leisurely stroll along the promenade to the pastry shop to grab a gelato and watch the bright red sunset. Private transfers can be arranged directly from Dubrovnik Airport (€120 for up to four people).
