Dazzling views over the nearby Dubrovnik Old Town and the Adriatic Sea
Villa Orsula, one of the most sought-after and luxurious wedding locations in Dubrovnik, was completely restored and refurbished in 2012. This boutique 5 star hotel, housed in a 1930’s Mediterranean villa, boasts unparalleled views over the white-stoned World Heritage site of Dubrovnik and the Adriatic sea. With 11 rooms and 2 suites, this hotel combines luxurious vintage style with modern minimalism, leaving you with a feeling of old world charm and exclusivity. On the morning of your wedding day, look out to the old town walls or the peaceful forests of Lokrum island from your window or balcony.
Adjacent to picturesque cascading seafront gardens with breathtaking views, Villa Orsula is just a five-minute stroll from Dubrovnik Old Town. In fact, it was once the home of a local noble family and the original name lives on. Set on a grapevine-draped terrace overlooking the most sublime Adriatic sea view, the Victoria restaurant is a destination in itself, making it the ideal choice for your wedding reception. With its opulent architectural history and trendsetting interior design, this place is the ideal venue for an ultra-stylish destination wedding celebration.
