You also have the use of the outdoor pool at the neighbouring Grand Villa Argentina, and the Energy Clinic Spa & Wellness at Hotel Excelsior.

This lovely boutique hotel in a beautifully restored 16th-century stone building in Dubrovnik’s old town attracts discerning couples.

Where to stay in Dubronik: hotels by district

'More' – pronounced 'mor-ray' – means 'sea' in Croatian, and the big plus of this hotel built into a hillside is the fantastic view over Lapad Bay. It’s popular with couples, and especially beautiful in the evening, when the sun sets over the sea, turning the sky hues of orange, pink and purple, with the rocky Grebeni islets rising into the horizon. There's a rock-and-concrete bathing area directly below the hotel, with sun beds and easy access into the sea, and a small spa has a steam room. The hotel arranges excursions (including a sailing trip, with skipper) and has a special honeymoon package. Read expert review From £ 146
