We were in need of a complete time out when we decided to book this hotel and it totally delivered. The hotel has 11 suites that all have beautiful views of the cove and sea beyond. Clean, well laid out and comfortable rooms with modern decor and design. We had a very fun arrival by water taxi as it was too late to use the ferry. We were met by the Manager who took care of our luggage, directed us to comfortable seating in the bar and organised refreshments which were very much appreciated after travelling, whilst he took care of checking in. The next day, we opened the curtains to beautiful sunshine and lovely views. All meals at this time of year, are outdoors but under attractive cover. No table has a bad view and you can take your time, watching the boats and people coming and going for as long as you like. Food was either a set menu or a La carte. They take their food seriously and yet are happy to flex in order to meet dietary needs and preferences. Kolocep has no roads per se, locals get about using golf carts and boats. The one shop on the island is a 20 minute walk away so go prepared, because the only other option is ferry to Dubrovnik. All the staff were helpful and friendly. We were able to organise tours around the island with snorkelling opportunities in the local blue caves with the best advice as to when to go to avoid the worst of the crowds. We also had a boat all to ourselves when we visited Dubrovnik for the day so truly spoilt! No issues with sun beds and cabanas, there are plenty for the guests use and no silliness over reserved spaces. The cove is sandy and easy to walk into the water. Shoals of fish and hermit crabs - one sighting of an octopus! Great for snorkelling. Shallow waters support children to play safely. If a pool is more your thing, the roof has amazing views whilst you take a dip. All in all a special little spot which I would highly recommend.
