Kalamota Beach House

We were made very welcome on arrival with a welcome drink waiting for us. The property is stunning and spotless. Wi-Fi was great. The focus for the staff is to make sure that all guests are taken care of and they couldn’t do enough for you. Food was great. Breakfast plentiful and fresh. The surroundings and walks in this beautiful island are unmissable

I so wanted to give this hotel 5 stars as this is an immaculate and special island hotel, beautiful location, the rooftop pool, the weather, the friendly staff and activities locally and all that was indeed fab, but, the food here let it down a little for us (a family of 4 with two tweens) staying 10 nights. Breakfast (that was included) was fine (with eggs to order but missing family faves that I would have expected like eg french toast) but it was lunch and dinner that was lacking. The hotel aims for fine dining which is not what you want every night for a family. And it wasn’t nice enough to be truly fine dining if that’s what you did want. The restaurant was quite often empty showing they don’t have it quite right. There is a kids menu but there are 4 choices, pizza being one which is dependent on the boat bringing the supply which it regularly didn’t. For lunch we genuinely struggled to be able to order anything that we liked which was really disappointing for us. The rooms do have a small kitchen to help solve the food issue. Dishwasher was a welcome luxury! And microwave and hob. But where to buy your ingredients! There is a tiny shop on the “Tui” side of the island - a doable 15-20 min walk or hotel buggy ride (for E20 charge tho). But it’s “entrepreneurial” prices and very limited fresh produce. The only real choice is Dubrovnik. The ferry from the island (either the early morning ferry from the hotel bay or the later ferries from the TUI bay) take you to Gruz port in Dubrovnik in about 30 mins. Just outside the harbour is a large supermarket. Strongly advise buy all you can carry to stock up and which allowed us to cook meals and snacks without breaking the bank. But it is an effort! Otherwise there is a restaurant opposite the hotel but it’s limited, simple but fresh and mainly fish. Not cheap and cash only! Also a nice cafe restaurant on the TUI side for a change of scene. We did have a wonderful time and we truly loved exploring the island and Dubrovnik. We felt very looked after and the staff were so welcoming. Our favourite activity was a quad safari - booked through TripAdvisor - at Kojan Koral - which is a simply epic and we all agreed our best day ever!

We stayed for 2 weeks from May 20th 2025. This place is just wonderful, peaceful & and relaxing.. all the staff from reception, the restaurant, the kitchen & the cleaning, cannot do enough for you, without doubt it’s the best place we have ever stayed in for being relaxed & chilled.. You’re made to feel appreciated by everyone.. you will not be disappointed. Everything is a 10!

Kalamota Beach House in early May was the perfect getaway place for our holiday. The suite was airy, spacious, well maintained with a great balcony from which to hear the sea lapping and watch fishing boats in the small harbour. The staff without exception were really friendly, helpful and professional. On the quieter side of the island it is an easy 30 min walk across to the busier main port where there is a small shop and two bars. On other lovely walks on rockier paths there are amazing views and a stunning natural wild flower meadow. Sturdy footwear recommended for these routes.

Beautiful property excellent staff!

Perfect. Can’t wait to return
