Out stay was fantastic! Hotel staff was attentive, responsive and accommodating. The only things I’d change is maybe adding a shop fir guests to get snacks in between meals. But otherwise, fabulous stay, WONDERFUL location. I will definitely return!

The best stay, will definitely return.

We had the most wonderful stay. Beautiful scenery.
It was our 10th wedding anniversary and the hotel gave us a bottle of complimentary wine and which is so thoughtful of them.
The hotel was just outside Dubrovnik and a ferry ride will take you there in 30minutes. The breakfast was plentiful, wide variety and fresh food and drinks.
Onsite restaurants were really nice especially the pizza restaurant.
There was indoor pool, outdoor pool and the sea, blue as far as the eye can see. Facilities were clean, sauna was working and you can rent beach towels for €20 per person per stay. We stayed at the annex and it was separate from the main hotel but still to high standards. We've had the best stay and will definitely return.

Rooms are very small & in need of updating. Definitely a 3 star hotel. Room was clean though. Safe area. Very nice view of the sea & sunset. Dinner buffet was average, very cafeteria like food. Not worth 28 euros/person. Convenient location to the Dubrovnik airport- thats why we chose it. Only stayed 1 night.

Family trip in September

Great hotel about 20 minutes from the airport and another 15 minutes from Dubrovnik Old Town by car. Beds were very comfortable and room had coffee/tea making facilities, mini fridge and hairdryer. Buffet breakfast choices were many and varied but buffet dinner a bit uninspired. Hotel facilities very good with indoor and outdoor pools, sauna and steam rooms, gym and spa treatments available. Pebbly beach and extra charge for beach loungers and umbrellas.Good, choice of restaurants along the seafront- a small, quiet resort so not over crowded and all very welcoming, polite and clean. Great ice cream choices!

Wow! What an incredible resort! So much to do here and see! If you have children, this is a great place for them too! When we checked in, we were notified we were in a different building. Our front end staff carried our luggage to a golf cart, drove us the 30 seconds to the other building, unloaded our luggage and carried it up the stairs for us into our room. Our tummies were hungry so on the advise of one of the fabulous bartenders we strolled over to the pizza and spaghetti house where we sat outside enjoying the water and a lovely glass of Rose followed by an incredible pizza that we shared. We swam in the Adriatic Sea and then went to check out the gorgeous pools. For us, dinner AND breakfast buffets were included…oh my! They were both fantastic!! If you don’t love the hustle and bustle of the city, this is the place to stay! It’s about 15 minutes outside of Old Town and worth it! We’ve already discussed coming back and doing a family vacation here. Great place, great staff, great food and great grounds!!

A clean fairly large hotel with wonderful views of the sea and surroundings.
Great location to access a couple of trips by boat and a few restaurants and bars within walking distance.
Helpful staff and a good range breakfast buffet.
Rooms were clean, fairly basic but fine.
Beach access and pool were both easy. Despite all the signs, people still put towels down early in the day. They were at least free - as the beach area charges nearly 50 euro for our group of 4 per day which is very expensive.

Great stay!

Stayed here for 10 nights. The staff were very friendly and had good English. We were given clean towels everyday and beds were made daily.
Mlini was stunning, nice to stay a short distance outside the busyness of Dubrovnik old town. It was about 12-25€ for an Uber into the old town, depending on the time.
Overall we had a lovely stay and would definitely come back!

We had a really great stay in a connecting family room with a partial sea view (we had the sea, and the mountains in our view). I’ve seen this hotel get quite a bit of stick for various things and I can honestly say I’m not sure why. We found all staff to be friendly and helpful, the hotel was spotlessly clean. Our rooms were of a decent size (main hotel) I’m not sure how much time people spend in their rooms when on holiday and why youd need anymore space. Yes the storage isn’t amazing but we found somewhere for everything. Beds super comfy, showers great! We never had an issue getting a sunbed (if you got to the pool before 9.30 you wouldn’t have an issue, yes if you turn up at 11am it’s always going to be unlikely you’d get one! If we went off for the day and came back later in the afternoon we never had a problem getting a sunbed again. You could pay a deposit for pool towels and swap as often as you wanted. Our son (9) was very pleased to find they had a games room with ps5, Nintendo switch 2 etc, pool tables, football tables. So close to the beach and a short walk, which we took often along the sea front to Srebreno with more beaches, restaurants, a wibbit and some sort of play park every 100m! We found the whole place to be very safe and clean. Two restaurants connected to the hotel were also great and no need to book. We took a kayak tour over to Supetar island one day, an uber into Old town Dubrovnik and one to Cavtat all well worth it!

1. I have sent more than 10 emails to be replaced from the Anex building to the main building. They have moved me to the main building but to a closet facing the elevator!! When I asked to go back to get back original reserved room. I had to wait one day and they did it as a favor.
2. Breakfast in this place is horrible for a cup of coffee you need to stand in a line for over 20 minutes. Imagine if you want to get a second cup!
3. Pool area sitting is full starting from 7:00 AM in the morning and you have to pay for sitting at the beach even though it is being run by the hotel and theirs pool area sitting is packed.
4. The last 2 night guess upstairs started to screaming and run across the building. All the guests came out the room because they tought that there is fire

Really nice stay at Astarea, positives are clean modern room, super comfy beds, we are a family of 4 and had 2 interconnected rooms on the package with proper beds for the kids, not a sofa bed, which was great. Also table tennis, table football, pool, gaming room, gym, sauna and huge indoor pool to keep our hyper boys busy. The area is lovely with a few nice restaurants and boat taxis to Dubrovnik and a lovely place called Cavtat. Negatives buffet breakfast is fine but I wasn’t a fan of the cooked food, but nice bread and cheese and porridge, fruits etc. The staff in the restaurants are working flat out, so seem a bit stressed and tired. Reception staff not overly friendly, but a lovely guy checked us out. Cleaning staff fabulous. Pool area very difficult to get a lounger, although this had improved by time we left, with towels removed after 30 minutes unoccupied. Beach you need to pay for loungers/umbrellas and is quite expensive. Really nice hotel with some caveats.

Checked in at the renovated Astarea hotel which looked beautiful. Was disappointed to be then directed over the car park to the annex hotel which looks like it dates back to the 60’s. The room was tiny and basic but it was clean and functional. A great shower and there is a fridge and kettle. Breakfast was very crowded and the food disappeared quickly but was replenished quick enough. Queues for the coffee machine. The pool was lovely, yes you do have to get there fairly early to get a lounger or you can pay for a lounger on the beach. Not many places in Mlini to eat but there are a few choices. Overall the experience was fine but could have been better. You get what you pay for!!

From the transfer (from and to) the airport, the quiet , efficient check-in, the beautifully clean and well-appointed room, easy access to pool (indoor and outdoor) as well as beach if you wanted to - bathing towels and gowns provided giving the spa-feel, this was an easy place to relax. Comfortable bar and balcony overlooking the sea and on one occasion a fabulous storm at night. Transport via boat ferry to Dubrovnik and Cavtat harbours ( both were €15 return for a lovely 20-5 min boat journey). Bus to both places as well for about €3 but either a steep 5 min walk up the hotel access road to Mlini bus stop,on the main road or an easier but longer walk 20 min stroll to the other end of Mlini. (Where there's a great little supermarket). Not too bad though either way - but the first would be hot in summer!! Several pasta/pizza places in Mlini but try the excellent food at the Lanterna restaurant. Dalmatian cuisine and wines, and tables right on the harbour side. Breakfast at the Asterea is excellent. Try to go in early and avoid the busier time. We had a really good, peaceful and relaxing stay and walked for miles in Dubrovnik, Cavtat and all round Mlini.

We only had a night stay but it was perfect. The team were kind enough to let us check in earlier as our flight landed in the morning and we headed straight to the beach which was very chilled. We didn’t even bother with the pool as this was packed. Had to pay for the beach umbrella and sun lounger for the day but I understand that’s not unusual..Also I suffer from neck pain and had requested a firm pillow which was in the room when we got in. Brilliant. Breakfast was combination of cold cuts, hot food, various baked goods and was perfectly fine to set you yo for the day. Thank you so much for a brilliant start to our anniversary holiday:)

I REALLY tried to find more reasons to give this place more than one star….

Do yourself a favor and stay somewhere else. First of all. This is definitely not a 3 star hotel which is why I think I was upset the most. False advertising.

*Very outdated hotel
* Very rude staff
* Slow service. 45 minute wait for two overpriced drinks made by an angry bartender
* Tiny tiny rooms
* No elevator. It would take 109 stairs to get to our floor. Yes, I counted out of curiosity one day. Fine for the most part, but not when you have injured foot
*No iron. Called the front desk to ask for one and they were so rude about it. We showed up to our fancy dinner looking like bums
* Breakfast buffet is chaotic and offers nothing but cheap food
* Dirty rooms with bugs everywhere
* Very thin walls. You will get to know your neighbors
* Last one and worst one…. NO AIR CONDITIONING!!!!
We’ve had the worst week because of this. It’s hot outside. Very hot. I live in Germany. I understand AC is not like the United States. BUT, This is just ridiculous. Imagine It being hit outside, walking up all those stairs, and into a hot room. We called twice about it, and asked nicely. Nothing was done. The room was so hot that most nights my husband slept on the floor, and I would wake up multiple times a night to take cold showers. You are soaking in sweat while you are getting ready. There is just this tiny machine that blows air and that’s what they have. Just a terrible experience. Don’t stay ther

Thr location is excellent, beach front and pool is a plus. However, we were shocked and extremely dossapointed that drinks (even water) were provided at cost during dinner's buffet service. What kind of buffet service charges for water? The buffet dinner was really dissapointing, and the food included boiled pasta with no toppings or sauces. Yes, they had a varieity of food but it was bland and low quality. Charging $300 a night, we expected much more than that. Unfortunately, we will not be visiting this hotel again.

Great hotel in perfect location

Lovely hotel in a quaint little village resort really close to the pebble beach which is no problem as it is served with sun lougers and umbrellas. The hotel it's self is spotlessly clean and the rooms (ours seemed recently referbished) are comfortable although we couldn't seem to get the air conditioning to work which would have been my only gripe.
Other than that it's a perfect hotel to base yourself for visiting both Cavtat and the old town.

Very outdated hotel, no towels provided for the beach (VERY inconvenient!) and overall it’s a rundown and outdated property. Rooms are ugly and the beds were horrible and uncomfortable. To top off a miserable stay, the hotel is in rude open sin all day and the rooms have air conditioners that must be 20+ years old. Rooms get hot to say the least and hallways are unbearable. For a “resort destination” this property has A LOT to learn. If you are coming from the States and are used to modern facilities even at a moderate level, stay far away from this hotel!!!

The hotel is situated in wonderful place facing Adriatic Sea and very close to the beach. Everything there was very nice except the size of room. It's so small that two people can't navigate without bumping in each other. Same issue with the bathroom - it's very tiny. But again - in all other respects it's a great place to enjoy your vacation.

Nice hotel, lovely location

The hotel is in a great location, right on the beach in the lovely resort of Mlini. Our room was a bit small but the balcony was huge with an amazing view of the sea & surrounding area. The hotel food was disappointing, luckily we were on a bed & breakfast option so we were able to eat at the many good local bars & restaurants at lunchtime/ evening. I would not recommend going half board or all inclusive. We enjoyed trips to Cavtat & Dubrovnik on the local ferries which ran frequently. Information about trips, excursions etc was lacking at the hotel but this may be different if booking through a travel agent where there may be a representative available & a welcome meeting. The pool area at the hotel is lovely & well maintained & apart from the first 2/3 days of our holiday when it was very busy, there were sun loungers & parasols available throughout the day. We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday & would recommend Hotel Astarea on a breakfast only option.

Pool and apartments excellent, hotel staff great

A great stay we were lucky enough to be in the one of the apartments, pool area v clean, quite busy but a lovely spot.
places to eat and drink lunch, dinner within a brief walk of the hotel.
Beach right by hotel, bit stony and tricky to get in the water, perhaps not good for children or take swim shoes, good for snorkeling. Boat trip to Dubrovnik goes regularly day and evening, takes about 25 mins each way but worth it. Dubrovnik v pretty but very busy and perhaps slightly spoilt by shops, dont need 4 branches of the same sweet shop really ;o)

Nice hotel close to the beach

Hotel staff were friendly and helpful. The activity girls were full of fun, encouraging guest to join in without being pushy. Lucida was great with her aqua aerobics. Drinks in the beach bar were a bit pricey. We had a room in the annex with fabulous sea views. Nothing fancy about the room but clean and comfortable and large shower with hot water.

Excellent location

This hotel is perfectly located in Mlini with pool, beach and walkable nearby restaurants. Easy to get to Dubrovnik for the day so excellent for us! Just don't stay in the Annexe!! Much outdated to the main hotel, very dark and cramped with not great air conditioning.

Air conditioning was non existant and it was realky hot, so getting a good night sleep was out of the question. The breakfast buffet wasn't great and had a problem finding something eddible.
On the other hand the pool and beach were excellent.

Nice Location for quiet holiday

Hotel location nice for quiet relaxing holiday. Hotel staff helpful and polite. Only negative point about our stay was that we had a lovely room overlooking the sea with large terrace, but we were unable to use the terrace during the day as there was no Sun shade (canopy).

Great location quiet and friendly

Stayed in annexe. Air con not very good. Lovely place to stay with lots to do. Slept with balcony door open most nights, really quiet as no bars nearby or roads.
Lovely sea view. Pool good and clean. Indoor sea water pool too. Beach ok but beach shoes a must. A lot of large rocks in sea. Eat at Restaurant Marinero and visit Lokrum.
Will return to Croatia definitely.

Stay here!!

Stayed for a week in an annexe room with balcony and sea view. Stunning views!!! The room was lovely and clean. The Beach Bar food and cocktails were superb but our favourite for food was the Pizziera on the front belonging to the hotel. Further along, boat trips available, friendly sales people. Opposite this a local cuisine restaurant, Konoba Lanterna - small but cosy and the food was fantastic. A bit along the coast we enjoyed a few drinks and some live music at Caffe Bar Gusar and the bar staff made excellent cocktails, great to end the evening. Last but not least, around the corner of Bar Gusar is another cute little restaurant called Bistro Caffe Bar G!! The Hotel itself had plenty of choice for breakfast, great facilities eg shop, pool area was spotless, taxi service. We were gutted to go home!!! Highly recommended!!!

Well situated

Very nice hotel. Well situated. My only adverse comment is that they play dull repetitive electronic 'music'....if you can call it that!! in the reception, bar and restaurant.

Good budget hotel.

Hotel rooms were small, basic and clean. We stayed in the annex. If you don't want to spend lots of time in your room they are fine. Balcony view was amazing, beautiful. The hotel facilities were good and breakfast while not amazing was up to standard. It is 3 star and lives up to that rating. Great for a budget but not luxury. The hotel is perfect for exploring, easy to walk out of the complex and just wander all the nearby areas or jump on a boat to Dubrovnik or Cavtat.
