Enjoy A Luxury Croatian Getaway On A Secluded Archipelago

Get away from the crowds this summer in one of the most beautiful spots in Europe at a hotel which my customers regularly describe to me as ‘one of the best resorts in Croatia’.

Hidden from view, except from the sea, is the exclusive Crvena Luka Hotel & Resort, set in its own alcove beside the Adriatic, amidst stunning pine forest. This four star property has everything the stylish traveller could want from a summer retreat including excellent fine dining, a secluded beach with a range of activities, a wellness centre and spa, and tennis courts.

Those looking for a little culture to accompany their stay will enjoy taking a trip or two to the local town of Biograd na Moru, just 3km away.

A Choice of Accommodation Styles

One of the elements which makes the Crvena Luka one of the best resorts in Croatia is the choice of accommodation available. Whether you like the freedom and ‘home-away-from-home’ feeling of having your own villa or apartment, or you enjoy the indulgence of hotel living, the Crvena Luka has an option for you. Fully renovated in 2013 the range of apartment suites, villas and rooms spread out over the hotel’s grounds means there is literally something to please every type of stylish holidaymaker.

Plenty of Fun in the Water

Unlike many exclusive hotels, the Crvena Luka is not too cool to know how to have fun, and for those who enjoy water sports there is a wide range of activities on offer. From crazy adrenalin-fuelled inflatable rides which will see you bouncing over the waves, to an offshore Aquaglide Trampoline, there are plenty of ways to get your thrills on the water here. If you are looking for something a little more tranquil you can join the daily aqua aerobics class or maybe explore the local coastline in your own kayak. Sailing enthusiasts will love the range private sailing classes on offer. Meanwhile others might prefer to sit back and let someone else do the skippering on a number of private day boat trips available to discover the neighbouring islands.

Food For Thought

Of course, no indulgent holiday experience would be complete without a range of dining options for you to enjoy, depending on your mood and taste. The Crvena Luka has three excellent dining options from relaxed beachside snacks and cocktails available at the Beach Bar Movida to the international offering at Il Doge, with its breath-taking views across the bay, to the fine dining of Il Moro.

Specialising in turning fresh, local ingredients such as lobster and other seafood into elegant, refined dishes, paired with wonderful wines from its extensive cellar, Il Moro will be a genuine highlight of your stay. Those with kids (or just a sweet tooth) should not miss the delicious offerings at the Gelateria Gelatiamo either.

With so much to experience and do during your stay on the picturesque Kornati Island, I think you’ll end up having to agree with my customers, the Crvena Luka really is one of the best resorts in Croatia.
