We visited in second week of October. Season on island had finished at that stage so other restaurants and bars on island had closed. Hotel bar and restaurant were the only places open. However the food in the hotel was good enough and eating there for a week proved to be fine. Very quiet at that time of year but definitely a sense of getting away from it all.

Only 30 mins by frequent ferry from Dubrovnik. Charming quiet spot by sandy beach. Hotel food only average (lots of half baord) and little other choice nearby, but you can't have everything at these great rates. Two nights is enough.

An excellent stay at an excellent hotel on a beautiful and peaceful little island - loved it all! Next year here I come again!

The location is perfect - close enough to Dubrovnik, but at the same time, feeling like a remote island hideaway. A great place for untroubled unwinding and relaxation. As well as the hotel, with it's open air restaurant terrace, peaceful swimming pool and private beach, you also have the benefit of being able to walk around the lovely island as well. A hugely relaxing and restful holiday destination, with pleasant and obliging staff.

Hotellet låg på ön Kolocep dit färjan gick 4ggr/dag. Fantastisk vacker ö med många vandringsleder. Vi hade en lugn och avkopplande semester med bad , vandringar och kajakpaddling. Kajaker fanns att hyra på hotellet. Var där i september, då var det lagom med turister, kan tänka mig att det blir trångt vid pool och strand mitt i högsommaren. Vill absolut åka dit igen på våren eller hösten. Trevlig personal som kunde engelska. Rummen var små och ganska lyhörda, men annars rent och fint. Om vädret inte är fint kan vistelsen bli långtråkig.

Beautiful Island close to Dubrovnik, cheap and easy to island hop to Lupud, Sipan and back to Dubrovnik. It is the only Hotel on the Island but there are also Villas that can be rented. Even though we travelled just after summer Holidays ( arrived 11th Sept ) One of the Resraurants next to the harbour Villa Lovor was already shut and the Villa Ruza was closed on the thursday and friday due to the weather (thunder storms) and on the Saturday was hosting a wedding, additionally on the days it was open it was only for dinner and they wanted a reservation. Limiting dinning options to the hotel or walk to the other village where we had a lovely lunch at the little beach side restaurant, we were not half board so chose meals from the menu, which were ok, the buffet half board did not appeal, looked and felt like school dinners, breakfast also ok not much fresh fruit and only varient was the vegatables on offer i.e. sprouts, aubergine, broccili, cauliflower.We did go to Villa Ruza on the Sunday and the meal was delicious. One word of warning the hotel is built into the hillside in 8 blocks and there are lots of steps and no lifts, on the night we arrived we were escorted to an appartment in block 5 and on the 3rd floor this was the furthest appartment, fortunately it was only a twin and we had booked a family room I went back to the reception and we were moved immediatley to a room in block 2. Lovely pool and beach to sit around when weather good not much to do when weather bad.

Ok hotell med veldig hyggelig betjening. Maten var litt skuffende og det var veldig mye veps, noe som gjorde det ganske anstrengende å spise utendørs. Øya er ikke stor og det er ikke stort å finne på. Endel flotte fotturer på øya, men kartet vi fikk på hotellet var svært dårlig. Heldigvis er øya så liten at man umulig kan gå seg bort. Kunne gjerne vært mer info om aktiviteter og øyas historie. Var litt info i resepsjonen, men det var for det meste på tysk. Endel fantastisk flotte landskapsopplevelser på øya som gjerne kunne vært bedre informert om, følte at vi for det meste snublet over severdigheter siden info var helt fraværende. Verdt et besøk, men 1 uke er nok.

The Hotel is comfortable and clean but it’s the location that really makes this place special. Kolocep island is a beautiful place, which I can't recommend enough. It's a great place to relax either on the beach just in front of the hotel or at the harbour side bar simply watching the fishing boats and ferries come in and out.
As Hotel Villas Kolocep is on an island don't forget you need to factor the timetable of the ferry (they show it on the hotels website). It takes a minimum of 30 min to get to port gruz from the airport plus collecting luggage and passport control time so plan your journey otherwise you may have to catch a much more expensive taxi boat (call the hotel and they will send it). This place is worth the extra hassle (Although if you feeling flush you can pre-hire the taxi boat any time of day and not wait for ferries) as it’s certainly among the most pretty islands I've seen.

The rooms are in villa blocks seperate from the hotel which was quite nice, we had a wonderful sea view which I never tired of looking out of. Reception and waiting staff were all very helpful and courteous. We dined a couple times in teh evening, once at the buffet and a second time off teh a lacarte menu, both time food was good. Overall a very good hotel to stay at.

My husband, son and I have just arrived back from spending one week in Hotel Kolocep.
We found the hotel staff very helpful in fulfilling our requests:-
We asked for adjoining rooms, facing the bay and then, at the last minute, requested
rooms to be fairly accessable, as we were aware that there may be several levels and I had injured my foot.
The island was picturesque and peaceful, although we were glad to stay only one week, as it was too quiet for a longer stay. The hotel food was also a bit basic at the best of times - the buffet breakfast was fine, but didnot require broccolli,courgettes or sprouts to be served!
Apart from the hotel, there was only 1 taverna, a bar (stick to beer, don't order cocktails) and a small mini market. Also Villa Rusa, which is great, expensive and totally out of place.
However, the mainland is only 20 minutes away by ferry, then a quick bus or taxi ride to Dubrovnik. The island of Lopud is about 20 minutes in the opposite direction by ferry and it had quite a bit more to offer in the way of shops, bars and places to eat.
The potential for the island is great, a couple of more bars and tavernas, a bit of investment and it would be a real hit!

We just came back from a lovely 5 days at Villas Kolocep, What is there not to like? It all starts with a 30 minute boat trip from the port of Dubrovnik on the utterly romantic Postira, a ship straight out of a Tin-tin story. Passengers are being met by hotel staff and luggage will be driven on to the hotel on a golf cart. The hotel is only a 5 minute walk away, along the beach. Staff is really helpful, friendly and make you feel very welcome. The island is small and quiet and coming from London, that's a blessing. There is a lovely restaurant near the port, and another one on the other side of the bay and a 3rd restaurant (a superb fish restaurant, you need to book and the receptionists will phone them for you) half an hour walk away across the island and it's all very idyllic. Our kids loved it. There is a sandy beach, they easily make friends with other kids, there are no cars but you can rent kayaks to peddle to the blue cave or around the island (takes 4 hours). The room is spacious, the beds comfortable and the only cash machine on the island is in the hotel.
After 2 days you forget about the rest of the world. We travelled with 2 young kids (age 5 and 8) and they had a great time, they met some other kids, we met their parents. The lobby has a small library of books left behind by other guests. The views are great and with Swiss precision the Postira connects the island with the main land and neighboring islands.
We had a great time and planning to go back next year.

We had a lovely one-week-vacation with a base at this hotel in Kolocep. Overall we made it into a fun and exciting week as we, on top of exploring the island itself, travelled around a bit visiting the surrounding islands as well as spending a couple of afternoons and evenings in Dubrovnik city. Great weather and nice company <3 However we would like to advise future guests of the hotel to think twice before accepting "help" from the hotel staff, as we experienced several attempts of tricking us into using their connections when it came to, as an example, transportation too and from the island. Information on their webpage concerning the taxi-price from the airport to the city is wrong, as this is the price they take in a coorporation with a couple of drivers (btw. dont take a taxi, get on a bus, super cheap and very comfortable). Boat-taxies are overprised and arranged for their guests without informing them about the ferry which will be leaving only one hour later for 1/10 of the cost etc. One last tip would be to not spend money on the food in the hotel restaurant, it is not that nice. Rather get on a ferry to one of the other islands for dinner or walk the 5 min walk to the tip of the bay and have a wonderful sunset-dinner at a restaurant out of a compleatly different world ;) Have a nice trip!

Staff are excellent - friendly and attentive. Rooms are tiny but clean and adequate. Ensuite is really small and definately 3 star max. Menu not brilliant but again, if you are not staying too long then its acceptable. The only really dissapointing aspect was the pool and beach areas - the sun loungers had no cushions and therefore became really uncomfortable after a short time and many of the parrasols were broken due to sea breezes which you had to pay the hotel to use both these items if you wanted to lie on the beach.
Overall, a nice place for a short stay.

A great hotel on the island of Kolocep. The hotel does exactly what it says on the tin - provides a nice place to stay on a beautifully small island. Good room (we stayed in a room in Villa 2 which overlooked the bay). Had a lovely pool with sunloungers and unbrellas (beware the bed hoggers with their towels) and a beach right outside the hotel.
Food was resonably priced at the hotel, but if you can do go to the restaurant on the end of the island as it is amazing.

Vi hadde 14 fantastiske dager på Kolocep, som ble kryddret med 3 flotte daga i Dubrovnik før vi satte kursen hjemover. Flotte turmuligheter på Kolocep for alle aldre. I det klare vannet var snorkling bare fantastisk. På hotellet opplevde vi bare hyggelig personale, med utmerket service. Her kunne vi virkelig slappe av. Lokalbåten" Postira" kunne ta oss daglig med ut til naboøyene i løpet av en halvtime, noe som var fin avveksling. Hit kommer vi tilbake.....

The resort is very nice, but it is on an island. If you do not plan on exploring Dubrovnik, and want to sit on the beach this is a great location. Getting to the island is either by ferry, or water taxi. The ferry is on a fixed schedule and the schedule is not great for exploring Dubrovnik. The water taxi you can reserve a better time, but it is pricey. Otherwise the hotel was clean and comfortable. The staff was always helpful.

The staff were friendly at all times, even though they were very busy. The food was good and there were a range of options. There are no lifts in the apartment blocks so this may not be convenient for all. The island is unspoilt and there are several walking tracks (bring good shoes to walk in). Kolocep was relaxing and peaceful and not overcrowded. I would definitely go back.

Mukava hotelli ja erittäin kiva ranta aivan hotellin vieressä, hieman miinusta maksullisista autinkotuoleista rannan puolella. Lauttayhteys mantereelle toimiva, mutta aamulla lähtö oli joko ennen seitsemää tai vasta 12.35 jolloin aikaa kaupungissa ei niin hyvin jäänyt. Aamupäivälle olisi siis kaivannut lisävuoroa. Ruoka hotellin ravintolassa ei saa meiltä kehuja ja koska saarella on lisäksi vain pari ravintolaa niin vaihtoehtoja sen suhteen ei erityisemmin ollut. Huone oli siisti ja kaunis näköala merelle päin. Palvelutaso oli yleisesti saarella kohtalainen, vaihtelevasti sai kuitenkin myös ihan hyvää palvelua.
