Map & location
Mlini, Dubrovnik Coast, Croatia
Hotel Mlini is tucked into the heart of Mlini, a traditional Dalmatian village framed by steep hills and the Adriatic Sea. Step outside and you’re on the seafront promenade, with pebble-and-shingle coves, stone jetties and pine trees lining the bay.
The village itself is low-key and charming – think a handful of tavernas, cafés and bars around the little harbour, plus walking paths that wind past old mills and freshwater springs in the hills. When you want more buzz, Dubrovnik’s iconic walls and marbled streets are about 9km away, easily reached by taxi boat or local bus, while pretty Cavtat is just across the bay.
