Chic Croatia stay at a sparkling coastal gem

Imperial Valamar Collection Hotel, Rab Island

Property details

Modern elegance at a Croatia hotel close to the Old Town on Rab Island - includes breakfast and dinner
  • Island paradise: The magical isle of Rab off mainland Croatia (home to the enchanting medieval town of the same name) brims with historic architectural gems, one such being the Imperial Valamar Collection Hotel. This grand building boasts an illustrious past that includes playing host to none other than King Edward VIII and Wallis Simpson.

  • Wine and dine: When it comes to dining, the restaurants serve up delicious Croatian and international fare, from fresh fish and meat to tasty cheeses and cured ham. Head to Nobilis for top-notch buffet breakfasts and dinners with show-cooking stations, quality local wines and a sea-view terrace, or Veritas Restaurant & Wine Bar for fine à la carte dining.

  • Soul-soothing spa: Enter a zen-like state at the spa, where a Finnish sauna and bio sauna, Turkish bath, whirlpool and relaxation room tempts guests in from the heat. Swim some laps in the indoor freshwater pool, work out in the fitness room and top up your tan in the solarium, or simply relax all day by the outdoor pool.

How to get there

The island of Rab is only a 15-minute ride from Stinica Ferry Port on the mainland, which is roughly an hour and a half's drive from Rijeka International Airport, or two hours from Zadar Airport. The island is also accessible by fast catamaran from Rijeka and Zadar. The hotel is about a 15-minute drive from the island port.

Good to know

A seasonal complimentary shuttle service is available to Val Padova Sandy Beach. Complimentary boats rides are also available to the beaches of the Frkanj Peninsula, as well as Carolina Beach on the Suha Punta Peninsula.
