The rooms are small and poorly maintained. My shower was blocked all week and drained slowly. The room was uncomfortable and 'tight'. The electricity fused, tripping the system on three occasions and had to be reset. Every attempt was made to extract more money from me. The hotel tried to charge extra for expresso coffee in the mornings at breakfast... more

Perfectly positioned just above the promenade of a stunning island, excellently designed with the right touches here and there (seashells in the bathroom or cool modern art features throughout that nicely blend into the overall homely, warm atmosphere), this place has all the right ingredients. There are some small issues, though. Cleaning ladies chat loudly at 7 am. Unless you... more

My husband and I had a great stay at Villa Vilina. The room was very large and offered a great view of the sea and town. We felt like we could really relax here. The location is great. We took the ferry from Dubrovnik (40 minutes) and the hotel is right above the dock. The island is small and quiet-... more

We've just spent a week at the Villa Vilina. First impressions were amazing - brilliant location overlooking the whole bay, friendly welcome from reception staff, lovely room well equipped and kept spotless. Breakfast was excellent and slightly different each day. But one or two niggles: we reserved a table for an evening meal, arrived to find no table ready for... more

My twin sister and I stayed at this charming hotel for a week and enjoyed every minute of our visit.. The hotel staff were very friendly and helpful - the food excellent, rooms really clean with clean sheets twice in the week. A wonderful relaxing holiday away from noise and stress - the pace of life suited us very well... more

GETTING THERE: As Lopud is a car free island, the easiest way to get there is by hiring a private water taxi or taking the ferry. The ferry stops at two islands before arriving at Lopud and takes about 30-45 minutes if you leave from Dubrovnik. LOCATION: Lopud is a very small island just off the coast of Croatia. It... more

We have just returned from a fabulous week staying in an apartment at Villa Vilina. Our apartment was perfectly adequate for our stay, though being on the ground floor the other apartments would have had a better view. The 'kitchen' is rather basic but was perfectly suitable for breakfast and coffee etc though I would not have wanted to cook... more
