Map & location
Dubrovnik (Babin Kuk), Dubrovnik Coast, Croatia
Babin Kuk is Dubrovnik’s laid-back, leafy peninsula, a world of its own yet only a few kilometres from the city walls. Valamar Lacroma Hotel sits in landscaped grounds close to the coast, with forested walking paths, pebble beaches and beach clubs all within easy reach.
Stroll around 250m down to Copacabana Beach for sea swims, watersports and relaxed bars, or wander 100m in the other direction for local shops, cafés and restaurants. When culture calls, regular local buses whisk you into Dubrovnik Old Town for marble-paved streets, Baroque churches and those iconic red roofs above the city walls.

Facilities
Pool & outdoors
Outside, you’ll find two freshwater outdoor pools including a dedicated children’s pool, all framed by sun terraces with loungers and parasols. One pool features swimming lanes for those who like to clock up lengths, while the smaller pool keeps younger guests cool in summer. Complimentary pool towels are included.
On cooler or breezier days, retreat to the heated indoor freshwater pool within the spa centre, open year-round.
Copacabana Beach lies around 250m away. This pebbly stretch is classic Dubrovnik Coast: clear water, beach clubs, loungers for hire and easy access to boat trips. Slides and extra water fun can be found at neighbouring Valamar Tirena Hotel (seasonal, with restrictions).
