Response from the property
Dear Mrs. Uzun, Thank you for your lovely review and for the perfect score. It is great to hear that you enjoyed your stay and that the food and service contributed to a positive experience. Your kind words about the team at our La Mar restaurant are especially appreciated and will certainly be shared with them. We also appreciate your honest comments about the pool area and the beach during the busy summer period. Your feedback is valuable and will be taken into consideration as we continue looking for ways to make our guests' experience as comfortable as possible. Thank you again for choosing President Hotel, Valamar Collection. We hope to welcome you back to Dubrovnik again soon. Kind regards, Martina Štemberger, Guest Relations Manager
For a meal right at the hotel, you have La Mar Restaurant, known for Mediterranean seafood and grill dishes, plus the main restaurant, which serves buffet breakfast and dinner, and a Beach Bistro with Mediterranean seafood and meat specialities. Just a short stroll away on the Babin Kuk peninsula, you can walk to Bono restaurant (around 200 m), Langusto fine dining (around 300 m), or Tirena, a fast-food spot (around 300 m). If you are up for a slightly longer walk, Piramida (around 400 m), Levanat (around 400 m), and Pivnica Dubrava (around 400 m) are also close by. For a seafood-focused meal, More restaurant is about 700 m away, and EDEN Kitchen & Bar is roughly 1.1 km. And for a drink, both On The Rocks (about 200 m) and Cave Bar More (about 700 m) are within walking distance.
The hotel sits at the edge of the Babin Kuk peninsula, right on the waterfront, with the sea just 10 meters away and views toward the Elaphiti Islands. It's a quiet, resort-like part of Dubrovnik, about 6 km from the old town center. Nearby you'll find the Cava beach about 250 meters away, plus a mini market, a sunset viewpoint, and several casual restaurants and bars within a few hundred meters, such as Zoë, Bono, On The Rocks, and Tirena. Regular public buses run directly into central Dubrovnik from the peninsula. You're separated from the historic sights, which sit roughly 4.4 to 4.8 km from the hotel, so reaching them means a short ride rather than a walk.
From Dubrovnik Airport (DBV), about 22 km away, you can take the airport shuttle bus that runs to Pile station and the main bus station, then catch a local bus or taxi toward the Babin Kuk peninsula. The hotel also offers airport transfers if you arrange them in advance with your flight details. If you arrive by ferry, Dubrovnik port is 3 km from the hotel. There is no direct train service to Dubrovnik; the nearest railway station is in Split. For the final stretch, a taxi or ride-hailing service is the most straightforward way to reach the hotel.
Evenings here are relaxed on the Babin Kuk peninsula. Start with a drink at the hotel's own bar or Café, then walk about 200 m to On The Rocks, a friendly local bar. The Cave Bar More, around 700 m away, is another good stop for a drink in a unique setting. Sunset views are easy from the nearby viewpoint, about 400 m from the hotel. If you fancy a bite, Bono restaurant is a short 200 m walk, and Langusto fine dining is about 300 m away. The Old Town's sights, like Lovrijenac Fortress, are roughly 4.4 km off, so take a taxi or the regular bus for a livelier evening there.
The hotel sits on the Babin Kuk peninsula, about 4.5 km from Dubrovnik's Old Town. The closest sights, Lovrijenac Fortress, Dubrovnik West Harbour, and Pile Gate, are all 4.4 to 4.5 km away, so it is not a stroll but a quick bus or taxi ride. Regular public buses run directly into the centre, and the beaches and Elaphiti island views are right at the doorstep. You get a peaceful seaside base with easy access to the historic sights.
