Hotel Bozica Dubrovnik Islands

Staying in this lovely hotel on Sipan Island was a highlight of our trip. It was so beautiful and quiet - really relaxing! Hotel Bozica has a real "family-run" feel. The staff were all so friendly and accommodating. The building is getting a bit on the older side, but it's beautiful and we were comfortable in our rooms. We ate at the hotel for dinner every night and the restaurant had good variety. We stayed with children and they loved the pool and the short walk to the public pebble beach. Oh, and I would recommend to book the hotel transfer with the "James Bond speedboat arrival" - it was so cool and much easier arriving straight at the hotel dock with staff available to help us with our bags. Otherwise, I imagine you will have to lug them from the public ferry stop in town (and there's a hill).

Beautiful location, stunning views, this has the feel of a family run hotel. We were greeted by reception staff when we arrived, as if we'd visited before (we hadn't) and the feeling of being in a small friendly hotel is increasingly rare these days. We visited the other village on the island, and also other islands so there was plenty to do in the week we had

An absolutely incredible holiday. This is a gorgeous family run hotel that delivers an effortless, low key 5 star service that feels like a home from home. The food was delicious and the restaurant service was second to none. The dedicated cocktail specialists and the staff's knowledge of local wines really added to the experience. Food in Croatia has become expensive due to the move to the euro last year. We found the hotel restaurant good value for the quality difference between local alternatives. We jumped the bus and the ferry for a bit of exploring but this is essentially a location to relax and get away from it all. We enjoyed hiring the hotel kayaks and did two or three snorkelling sessions each day on different islands loving all the fish. The private speedboat transfer is a must and couldn't have gone more smoothly in either direction. Thanks to all the staff for a wonderful stay we will, like the many friends we made there, be back.

The location is amazing. Wonderful island life with pristine water. Staff are super helpful. Other side of the island is also gorgeous ( we have electric bikes but there is a bus service) and 6 minutes by Ferry is another island Lupod. Plenty to see and do let alone enjoying the loungers around on the beach or the pool. We came with a car. Was a bit tricky driving to hotel once off ferry as Google Maps kept putting us crook but we got there and parking is available. Ferry ride is about an hour and easy but just get time table as some days they vary and usually only twice a day. There are a few choices re restaurants including eating in. Breakfast is good.

It's very difficult to find fault with Hotel Bozica - the private transfer, the friendly & very helpful staff, the location, delicious breakfast etc. We had a very happy week there. The only criticism I have is the lunch & dinner menu in the restaurant stayed the same the whole week and wasn't sufficiently varied but there are other places to eat. I would recommend walking down to the little port of Sudurad for drinks and/or supper; getting the bus to Sipanska for the evening or a day trip; taking the ferry to Lopud for the day - have lunch at Obala (we had the best lunch there by far) and then get a golf cart to the beach. I would also highly recommend the restaurant Trisestre next to the hotel. The excellent ferry service leaves Sudurad several times a day and does the Lopud/Kolocep/Dubrovnik circuit so you can easily do a day trip to Dubrovnik too if you leave early enough. But if you just want to relax by the pool or by the sea, there are plenty of sun loungers for everyone, the sea is beautifully clear and the views to die for.
