Hotel Lumbarda

An unhurried beachfront three-star on the eastern tip of Korčula island, Hotel Lumbarda sits inside the village of Lumbarda — a sandy-shored contrast to the rocky coves dominating most of Dalmatia's coastline. The hotel's position puts the Grška Luka beach within steps and the island's famed Grk white-wine vineyards within cycling distance.

Rooms are soundproofed and air-conditioned, with balconies and views toward the open Adriatic. The property rents bicycles on site, which is the practical way to reach Korčula Old Town, roughly four kilometres west along the coastal road.

Water activity options span snorkelling, diving, canoeing, and windsurfing, all organised from the hotel's beach. A restaurant, bar, and outdoor pool round out the on-site facilities.
