Dubrovnik and Austria – It’s not just Dubrovnik that’s worth a look. The surrounding area also has a great deal to offer.
The new Radisson Blu Hotel Sun Gardens makes a great base camp for anyone wishing to explore the resort of Dubrovnik ten kilometres away -and connected to the hotel by a shuttle boat – the beautiful southern stretch of the Dalmatian coast which surrounds it; and the offshore islands, which are always worth a look. If quiet, undiscovered destinations are your thing, the region has an embarrassment of riches.
Dubrovnik and Austria – Dubrovnik itself is not known as ‘Little Venice’ for nothing; like its celebrated Italian counterpart across the Adriatic, the Croatian port is impressive and rich in history; with ancient palaces, narrow alleyways and beautiful views over the sea. Any visit should also include a trip to the Elaphiti Islands, where the island of Lopud in particular is a must-see. And whenyou return from your day out island-hopping, the Radisson Resort offers the perfect place to relax and reflect, with restaurants offering Dalmatian and international cuisine, the largest spa on the Dalmatian coast, bars and cafes. And of course, those unspoilt Adriatic beaches.
