Hotel in Lapad, Dubrovnik Neretva, Dubrovnik Neretva
Rixos Premium Dubrovnik
An all-inclusive luxury resort on the Lapad Peninsula cliff edge with multiple pools, private beach access, three restaurants, and extensive spa facilities. The ultra-inclusive concept covers premium drinks and à la carte dining, making it excellent value despite the high room rate.
Rixos Premium Dubrovnik occupies a dramatic cliff-edge position on the Lapad Peninsula, offering a fully all-inclusive luxury experience that distinguishes it from most other five-star properties in the Dubrovnik-Neretva region. The Rixos ultra-inclusive concept means that premium drinks, à la carte dining across multiple restaurants, and most on-site activities are included in the room rate — a meaningful value proposition in a city where dining and bar costs are among the highest in Croatia.
The property's setting on the Lapad cliff provides sea views from the main hotel building, terraces, and pools, with the Elafiti Archipelago forming the backdrop to the northwest. Multiple outdoor pools descend the cliff in a terraced arrangement, each with direct sea exposure and sun lounger areas. A private beach is accessible below the pool terraces, offering direct Adriatic swimming in water whose clarity is a hallmark of the Dubrovnik-Neretva coastline.
Three restaurants serve the hotel's ultra-inclusive guests: the main restaurant operates as an open-kitchen buffet of high standard, while two additional à la carte venues focus on Mediterranean and international cuisine respectively. Bar service is available at pool-side and terrace venues throughout the day, with premium Croatian wines and international spirits included in the all-inclusive rate. The overall quality of the food and beverage across all venues is consistently cited as above expectations for an all-inclusive format.
The spa complex is extensive, with a Turkish hammam, indoor pool, multiple sauna configurations, and a full treatment menu. The gym is large by Dubrovnik hotel standards. An evening entertainment program — live music, themed dinners, cultural performances — caters to guests who prefer a structured resort experience without leaving the property to find it.
The hotel caters primarily to an adult-oriented clientele seeking the convenience of pre-paid full-board luxury without sacrificing quality. Families with older children are also welcome. The Lapad Peninsula location places the property several kilometres from Old Town, with taxis and public bus connections available for day trips into the historic centre of Dubrovnik.
