What you're near — and what you're not
- Gruž harbour and ferry port
- Lapad waterfront and restaurants
- Garden pool (on-site)
- Old Town (bus or taxi, not a walk)
- Main beaches
What you're paying for
Only a small number of individually styled rooms in a historic villa; the quieter, garden- or sea-facing rooms are the ones to ask for. Books out fast given how few there are.
