Villa Glavić

They upgraded us to a room at Villa Argentina so really this review is for the main hotel. While the amenities (pool, spa, fitness center, breakfast buffet) are amazing and customer service is great as well we had some issues with our room. It’s quite possible we were “upgraded” to a room that doesn’t get much if any use as it looks nothing like the photos that Gran Villa Argentina promotes on their site. First, the HVAC in our room felt like the filter had not been replaced or maintained and both my husband and I had major congestion/allergy issues (we did not have this problem at the hotel we stayed at right after this). Also, the tub leaks water every time you shower (it is those half shower wall set ups that don’t fully enclose) so you’re constantly dealing with a wet slippery bathroom floor. But outside of this the service was good (prompt with any requests we had) and we thoroughly enjoyed the pool/ocean deck & breakfast buffet.

Villa Glavis is part of Hotel Argentina....check in at the main hotel, cross the street and you’re in Villa Glavic. Both hotels were lovely, but our favorite part was the oceanfront pool...and stairs down into the sea! Lovely patio w/ drinks and meals. Be sure to sit outside, overlooking the sea, for an evening cocktail. Enjoyed the morning breakfast buffet ( also on the patio overlooking the sea). Not a downside, but realize this is on a steep hillside. We loved being on the top floor of the Villa...but NO elevator. The main hotel has elevators throughout. We were just sure to have all we needed before heading to the pool! Location is great...short 10 minute walk to the Wall and Old Town. Evening views of Dubrovnik were incredible. Enjoy!

The hotel had mistakenly given us a double room rather than the booked 2 singles. The hotel had high occupancy so one of us was given a choice of 2 very inferior rooms: either no air conditioning ( like a sauna at 30C+, or one with curtains that didn't;'t close and a bath that flooded repeatedly. The staff finally pulled through with some decent customer relations but it was a chequered stay in anther wise lovely hotel n a good location.

The location of Villa Glavic is great assuming you don't want to pay to be inside the walled city. It's on a steep hillside overlooking the sea and it is an easy 10 minute walk along the coast into the walled city of Dubrovnik. You get the benefits of the affiliated Grand Villa Argentina hotel across the street, where a lovely buffet breakfast is served on a patio with views of the walled city and Lokrum island, and the seaside pool is available. The staff can arrange for car service to or from DBV.

Fabulous location and stunning views from our third floor room. Five minute walk to city walls. Great breakfast options with outdoor terrace overlooking the harbour and city walls.
