The most popular destination in South Dalmatia is, of course, Dubrovnik – but there are numerous other lovely and peaceful resorts on the mainland. The area is best reached by flying to (or taking a ferry to) Dubrovnik and then using local transport services to head to the below towns and resorts. (Dubrovnik Airport is, in fact, closer to Cavtat and Mlini than it is to Dubrovnik.)
There are some small towns near Dubrovnik such as Cavtat and Mlini. They both have a handful of hotels, but private accommodation – villas, apartments and rooms – is plentiful.
North of Dubrovnik you have the Peljesac Peninsula, and the largest town there is Orebic.
N.B. Although they are also in South Dalmatia, we have separate accommodation sections for Dubrovnik, and the islands of Korcula and Mljet, and the Elafiti Islands of Kolocep, Sipan and Lopud.

Accommodation in South Dalmatia – Highlights
Cavtat
This pretty town south of Dubrovnik has a good selection of hotels and boutique hotels. For those looking for luxury, we’d recommend the five-star Hotel Croatia. Other smart options include the four-star Remisens Hotel Albatross (completely renovated in 2018) with its lovely pool area or the small boutique hotel B&B Villa Faggioni which is right in the centre of the town.
Mlini
Amongst the handful of hotels here, there’s another top-end choice – the fabulous, five-star Sheraton Dubrovnik Riviera Hotel. Otherwise, Mlini has plenty of villas and private accommodation – search here to see what’s available.
Orebic
The four-star Aminess Grand Azur Hotel has a lovely terrace and two freshwater swimming pools.
Cilipi
Treehouse Dubrovnik is a unique experience – a three-bedroom house set up in the trees! Offering tranquillity at night, the accommodation is well located for those looking to explore this part of southern Dalamatia.
