Join us at Lopud's oldest hotel! Hotel Glavović is the perfect base for our adventures in Croatia's Elaphiti Islands.

You'll stay with us at this family-run hotel on seafront of Lopud island.

Modern amenities include satellite TV's, Wi-Fi and standard air conditioning for all the rooms.

We're also close to Dubrovnik - 'the pearl of the Adriatic' - one of the region's best-loved destinations. While Lopud is rich in Mediterranean vegetation, surrounded by the sunlit Adriatic Sea.
