Location
Villa Lanterna is situated in Zaton at Stikovica 24A, approximately 22 km from Dubrovnik Airport (DBV). The hotel sits about 2.7 km from the Coral beach, and just steps away from two highly rated nearby restaurants: Konoba-pizzeria Arka (37 m) and Konoba Gusar (95 m). The hotel’s beachfront location offers direct access to a small local beach and cove. A shuttle bus service to Dubrovnik operates several times a day for €4 each way, while Uber rides to Dubrovnik cost around €10. A free hotel shuttle also runs daily to a nearby supermarket for self-catering guests. The immediate area is quiet, with limited shops, making the shuttle services essential for errands and excursions.
Tips

Reviews
Lots of reviews said staff very friendly however I didn’t feel the same . I suspect reviewers were taking about different staff.
There was 1 person there to do breakfast and deal with visitors. I think because it was end of season he was exhausted and I personally felt awkward asking for anything .
Reception, drivers and kitchen staff were very pleasant and helpful...housekeeping not so much.
