5-star hotels in Korcula
A shortlist of 5-star hotels in Korčula, from a palace in the old town to villas and apartments in Žrnovo, Brna and beyond. It is for travellers who want top-class comfort on the island and are choosing between a walkable town base and a quieter coastal or rural stay.
Staying in Korcula
Korčula is an island town in Croatia, known for its well-preserved medieval old town, its connection to Marco Polo, and its shipbuilding and stone masonry traditions. It is also recognised for its white wines and olive oil. For a visitor, the walled old town is the most atmospheric base, with restaurants and the waterfront within walking distance, while the island's beaches and coves lie around Lumbarda and along the coast, many of them pebble or rocky with some sandy areas.
The hotels on this list are spread across the island. Lesic Dimitri Palace sits on Don Pavla Pose in Korčula, 0.8 km from the centre, and Beachfront Villa Gabriela with Pool is 0.4 km out. Several addresses name Žrnovo, the inland village a few kilometres from Korčula Town, surrounded by hills and olive groves. Others lie further afield, at Brna, Račišće and Vela Rasoha. The mix suits couples and families who want space and facilities such as pools and saunas, and short-break visitors who prefer to be close to the old town.

Within the old town, walking is the best way to explore, as many areas are pedestrian-only. For beaches and wineries, a car, scooter or bicycle is useful.
When to go
The best time to visit Korčula is from May to June and September to October, when the weather is warm and pleasant for swimming, sailing and sightseeing, and the crowds are smaller than in high summer. July and August are the hottest and busiest months, with numerous festivals and events. Winters are mild but many tourist facilities close. Spring brings lush greenery and calm seas, while autumn offers warm days and the grape harvest.
