Astarea Hotel

2 readers found this review helpful

Location is first class half way between airport and Dubrovnik. There are gardens down to the beach (typical Croatian, pebbles and poor sand) and small harbour with water taxis which are the best way to go to Dubrovnik or Cavtat. Car hire available by the day and regular scheduled buses as well as the hotels own bus.
Dining room large and noisy, food nothing special (don't bother with half board option.
Rooms small.
Visited last week of their season so beach lie outs all locked up and other premises nearby already closed as were the hotels bungalows and annex.
Bosnia Hertagovinia very close well worth the visit.
Nearby Cavtat is just waiting to be found by the jet set with a beautiful setting and deep harbour but it is directly under the final approach to the airport.
Dubrovnik, do the walls but otherwise there are better cities to visit.
Also remember this was a recent war zone, there were at least three large bombed out and derelict hotels within easy strolling distance.
Lots of stairs and lifts very small so might not suit some disabled although there are ramps.
Would not take the kids but could make a romantic holiday for two.
