Lighthouse Grebeni

Lighthouse Grebeni stands on the Grebeni reef just half a mile from the Hotel Dubrovnik Palace and operated as a working lighthouse since 1872. The reef is a natural habitat of the yellow-legged gull, a protected species of seagull in Croatia. On a tiny island-reef out at sea, yet not remote, with one free return transfer to Dubrovnik included per day between 08:00 and 20:00, no keeper, you are on your own. ACCOMMODATION AND LIVING Under the management of the five-star Hotel Dubrovnik Palace, the lighthouse has been well renovated and furnished in a style in keeping with the environment with use of white and blue. The residential area has three double bedrooms and one single bedroom and there are two bathrooms with shower and L’Occitane toiletries. A fully equipped kitchen and a living room with satellite TV. Breakfast is served at the lighthouse and needs to be ordered the day before. A corridor houses a traditional “gustijerna” water tank, the building is powered by 220V electricity derived from solar modules. The lighthouse is fully automated and connected to a remote control system. A mobile phone has connections to all hotel departments. An outstanding feature of Grebeni is the outdoor area. There are two spacious terraces (totalling 324 square metres) with comfortable deck chairs, sunbeds and parasols. Butler and chef are available on request at a cost of €100 each per day payable direct to the hotel. Daily maid service with cleaning, change of sheets and towels is included. All the services of the Hotel Dubrovnik Palace are available to guests. For experienced divers, an underwater excursion to the Italian ship Taranto sunk in 1943 is just 20 metres from the lighthouse and available from the hotel.
