Hotel Uvala

Super Nice hotel. Clean and comfortable. Shower is one of the best with good water pressure for all of the hotels that we have stayed in Europe. Great and friendly services. If you are busy visiting the city, there is not much value to book the Rooms with sea view and balcony. Parking is extra at 12 Euro per day.

We stayed for 10 nights and overall, it’s an excellent place to visit and would come back: Hotel • Not quite a 4 star but not far off either. Best left to the people that do the ratings • Clean, tidy and quite rooms • The hotel is in a good location for the beaches and local bars and restaurants • Bath is a bit too much of a climb to get into (I’m 5ft 10) and needs a step to make it safer • The slight mould around tile grouting would be a 5 minute job to remedy. Others have raised this, please action it • Breakfast – very good. Lots of choice and coffee is excellent • Lunch – very good a la carte menu • Dinner – A little low budget eg Saturday night has mini burgers and often lacking in some local specialities. I suggest an a la carte menu is offered as well for those that are not on HB. Sometimes we would prefer to stay at the hotel for the evening, this would help • Housekeeping service – very good • Bar – very good with local and branded drinks • Some English TV channels other than BBC World Service, Sky News International and Al Jazeera English would help. We used SkyGo over the internet but not everyone has similar. Hotel Wifi reliable and fast • Staff come across as very friendly, polite, helpful, enthusiastic and well trained across all Departments inc Reception, Dining, Spa and Housekeeping • Spa - very good. Jacuzzi, steam room etc and reasonably priced massages. Had an total body massage and it was excellent • Pool area - cabana excellent and plenty of sunshine from breakfast onwards. It is much better than what earlier updates on this site suggest. Lovely and a nice breeze from the sea too. Some loungers near the hotel wall will be in the shade for most of the day • Fantastic location to watch the sunset • Some modernisation needed, mostly in the rooms themselves eg mattresses – you can feel the springs, net curtains are old and need a wash, rug around the bed and the Spa area looks a little ‘old’. The other areas of the hotel, in general, were good • Easy walk to the bars and restaurants around Sunset Beach • Cats – lots of them and all friendly! • No4 Bus service is directly outside the hotel and is a gem of a service • Good internet connectivity and performance whilst we were here • Aircon - on or off. We were unable to determine if on or off as it says it is off until 1st June then found it pumping out cold air. Then went off, so gave in and asked for and received a fan. This and opening the window helped. Resort itself • Every bit as beautiful as the brochures and pictures • As we were out of season (Mid May), no beach loungers were set out in the resort beaches. This was a disappointment and not one we were alone with. The Uvala hotel pool area is good, but sitting on the beach would have a been a nice option. This is one for the local council • Most visitors eat 7-9pm and then things quieten off. It’s not really a place for a late night drink • Some excellent restaurants eg Restaurant More, Levatat, Casa,

Unsuitable for families especially. No baby change facilities. Food is very poor choice, especially for catering to children (or those who are picky eaters). Air conditioning doesn’t work whatsoever and fridge also doesn’t work, apparently “it keeps temperature but doesn’t keep cold” not sure what the point of having the fridge in that case. Poor storage in the rooms. Sides of the bath are ridiculously high, a member of family with poor mobility couldn’t get into the shower at all. R

The hotel was located in a lovely area and easy to find, The hotel was spotlessly clean and the staff were very friendly and helpful. There is an indoor heated pool and an outdoor pool, sauna and jacuzzi which again are spotlessly clean. There is a bus stop just by the hotel that takes you into the Old City this runs every 20 minutes and is an ideal way to get around.

The hotel is impeccably clean and tidy. The staff are vigilant to their guests needs and helpful at all times. curtious and nothing is to much trouble . Friendly smiles greet you at all times and the staff work as a very good team to achieve such high standards..breakfast is varied and extensive and I would say caters for anybodies needs. The hotel offers a superb light lunch should you require one and the evening meal like the breakfast caters to anyone's needs and is very varied. The meals are suitable for both vegetarians and meat eaters and beautifully presented and hot cold respectively. Th pool area is a nice place to just chill having great summer lounges with there own shades and also a covered patio where bar service is readily available from morning into evening. The outside pool I witnessed is checked everyday. Cleanliness and health amd safety obviously a priority and it shows. They have a gorgeous spa alongside sauna and hot tub. Great holiday thankyou so much. Will return without doubt.

Just had a weeks stay in this little gem of a hotel.. We were made extremely welcome from arrival to departure, nothing was too much trouble for any of the staff. The bar/ dining room staff were especially friendly and kind.. Everywhere was beautifully clean and tidy, clean towels every day and beds made up.. Kettle in the room was also a bonus.. Lovely hotel.. Bus stop into Dubrovnik old town outside of the hotel €2 for a 10min ride, well recommended.. efficient service with pleasant drivers ( unlike UK) Lapad itself is very clean and the people are so friendly and welcoming..

This is not a bad place but certainly under par given the 4 stars rating. The rooms are decent but very simple and minimally equipped and the bathroom clearly mediocre. Breakfast is rich but consists of medium quality products. Pleasant small spa with a mini sauna. Front desk could learn how to smile.
