Fodor's Expert Review Rixos Libertas

The resort that you can see from pretty much any vantage point in Dubrovnik, the Rixos Libertas makes great use of its large size with three restaurants, four bars, one indoor pool, and one huge outdoor pool beside the private beach and sprawling sundeck, plus plenty of inviting indoor and outdoor seating areas. There are even libraries to browse and pool and ping pong tables to play with. Turkish-owned Rixos brings a different sensibility than you'll find at other 5-star properties in the city, evident in the diversity of breakfast options to the Asian-inspired restaurants to the incredible spa that includes a full-sized Turkish hammam, salt room, steam sauna, and even an igloo. The Rixos spills down a rugged cliff between Lapad and the Old Town, and is just a short walk or bus ride from both.
