Radisson Blu Resort, Dubrovnik

The famous, 5-star Radisson Blu Resort & Spa Hotel, Dubrovnik is set 11 kilometers away from the Old Town. It’s perfect for a family holiday along the Dalmatian Coast, with UNESCO World Heritage sites, Old Town Dubrovnik and stunning Adriatic waterfront views at your fingertips.

Settle into one of the sleek, modern residences, designed for families of various sizes, and enjoy free WiFi, coffee, tea, designer toiletries and gorgeous views from either a terrace or balcony. Our favorite feature? The residences have cooking facilities, which mean no fuss and worries about trying to keep tired kids under control. Instead, you can cook while they play in the spacious family-friendly rooms. Having extra space and your own kitchenette is priceless when on holiday with kids!

This hotel offers kids activities all summer at the kids club, and youngsters will enjoy access to their very own kids pool. Parents can relax with sporting activities (squash, basketball, football and tennis courts, yoga classes, wall climbing and more!) along with grabbing a nutritional drink at the on-site sports bar while watching the latest professional sporting events. Indulge with some time in the sauna or opt for a steam bath or spa treatment or a stress-free day. You can also have the hotel staff assist with sight-seeing or aquatic tours for the whole family!

Should a break from your kitchenette be needed, you won’t need to travel far! With multiple on-site restaurants and bars, your family will never go hungry or thirsty while on vacation here.
