Guest Reviews
- hector40 (10/5): Perfect Lunch - We visited the restaurant for lunch on a wild and stormy day to escape the weather! The Lemongarden does not disappoint it is truly exceptional hotel. We were made to feel very welcome and both enjoyed the Clam vongole the best ever and able to see it being prepared in the open kitchen, dessert was also delicious and it was the perfect lunch.
- Wim (10/5): - Everything about the hotel was simply outstanding, a hidden gem in Croatia.
- kbishtx (10/5): Wow! - Our stay at Lemongarden could not have been more exceptional. Our room was stunning, large with amazing views. The restaurant is only available to guests and I would liken it to any Michelin experience. The Oysters with a lemon moussaline was an appetizer I will dream about, so much so we went back another night for more. The service and plating were perfection.
- Bill Link (10/5): - It was an exceptional property and experience. The Staff were wonderful and the food and service equal to the task. It was 10+ all around.
Well done.. If I had any comments to make, it would be in regards to the large key, perhaps a smaller fob would have been more convenient but a very minor thing.
There was some construction going on at the back of the property behind the pool one day which would have seemed more appropriate after they shut down for the season next week but perhaps it was necessary.
- Mark (10/5): -
- Ingrid (10/5): - Wunderschön und sehr besonders in allen Kategorien !
- naj3 (10/5): Simply Superb - We were on Brac for just four nights and stayed at the Lemongarden. Would echo most of the previous reviews....this is a stunning hotel with immaculate service. Everything was just first class and the private beach (a 10 minute ride in a golf cart) is well worth the trip on a sunny day. One of the best hotels we have ever stayed in with perhaps breakfast overlooking the harbour with views of Split and the mountains the most memorable.You pay for this luxury but in our view it was value for money. If we had one criticism it would be about dinner in the evening. We eat at the hotel once, the meal was perfectly acceptable but very expensive for what it was in comparison to the three other meals we had on the Island and not value for money.
- andreas (10/5): Luxuriöses Hotel an bester Lage - Es handelt sich ein sehr exquisites nicht allzu grosses Hotel an bester Lage. Frühstück und Abendessen sowie Mittagessen direkt am Wasser, reserviert für Hotelgäste. Ebenso eine Bst und eine Gelateria. Das Pool Areal ist fantastisch. Die Mitarbeiter sind äusserst freundlich, die meisten sprechen deutsch. Die Einrichtung der Zimmer ist sehr speziell. Das ist aber natürlich Geschmackssache.
- mykanaly (10/5): So good ! - This hotel is a real find! Open from April to October the whole place is a hedonistic retreat for guests who like to be spolit at value for money prices in an adults only setting. We liked it so much that we are not sure we want to recommend it for fear of having too many competitors for availability :) . The speedboat transfer from Split airport is definitely worth the money and there is a hassle free convertible Mini available for an excellent day of exploring Brac. This was our second stay and we will be going again and again for long weekends.
- sallyann4412016 (10/5): Hotel Lemongarden…….unrivaled!!! - We have just had the most amazing stay at Lemongarden, Sutivan. It really was 6 nights of the best service we have ever received. In correspondence before we arrived, the team had arranged a transfer straight from Split airport to private water taxi that dropped us at the hotels dock. We were given a warm welcome and showed to our room which had a balcony overlooking the stunning pool are that is drenched in flowers! We decided to eat in the hotel restaurant first night, I had local Vongole whilst hubby had Steak frites, both delicious. You have the prime seat on the marina at the restaurant and can enjoy breakfast-lunch-dinner whilst soaking up the Harbour view.
As mentioned, the service at the Lemongarden is first class…. The front of house team led by Jelena, who we must thank for making our stay so memorable, is on point for every request. Thank you Katarina and Luka for arranging our tickets to the game, it was a great experience! The private beach club is great for relaxing, swimming in the Adriatic and having the perfect bbq lunch, big thanks to Vanja and Sonja for looking after us! Thank you also to ALL the restaurant team that make their establishment the best on the island. Massage was great and a private boat taxi to Hvar if you have time is recommended.
In summary, if you want to stay at the best hotel in this part of Croatia……..make sure it’s at Lemongarden!
We will be back!
- Nicola (10/5): What an amazing hotel - Loved everything
- Vicky (10/5): Can’t wait to return - Service excellent
Staff excellent and food delicious Nothing
- chrisdB380NP (10/5): Perfect for quiet relaxation - I love this hotel! It is perfect for relaxing as the residents are like minded so no shouting around the pool, no reserving sunbeds and no splashing. If you are looking for music then this is definitely not for you! Location wonderful, pool gorgeous and staff great. This was our third visit and we will definitely be back.
- Jolyon (10/5): Simply the best - I've had the privilege to stay in some of the best holets in the world and this is one of them. The hotel itself is outstanding but that's never what makes the difference between extremely good hotel and a world class, top end boutique hotel this. It's the staff,they care. They care about doing an unbeatable, professional job with pride. Most importantly they care about you. So this is not really a review of the hotel (they don't really need it), it's a review of You. Please treat them with the respect they deserve because we have genuine affection for Jelena and the whole crew. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Hope to see you soon
- 958DavidL958 (10/5): Pure class. - Incredible results in the Ilic building above the bar overlooking harbor and Sutivan promenade. Probably best room I’ve ever stayed.
Hotel is beautiful and every detail is accommodated, breakfast on the promenade is best way to start the day. Private beach, albeit rocky and pebbles is the perfect place to relax. Staff are so friendly and attentive. Dinner at the restaurant is good but overpriced as was the wine. If you are visiting the Brac islands you should stay here.
- Andrea (10/5): - Alles! Das charmante, herzliche Personal , das Pool, das Zimmer, die Ausfahrt mit dem Mini Cooper, das Frühstück direkt am Meer, das köstliche Abendessen, es ist einfach wunderbar in diesem wunderschönen Hotel
- Marion (10/5): -
- Maria Eugenia (10/5): -
- Laura (10/5): Excellent place to stay - luxury and relaxation - Excellent in every way. Very relaxing stay.
All of the staff were brilliant!
Restaurant brilliant (breakfast and dinner)!
Pool and beach brilliant!
Room brilliant!
Location brilliant!
Will return!
- katiepC2667TH (10/5): Paradise on Brac - This is such a special place, the attention to detail is exceptional. We had 9 wonderful days at this hotel. It’s a must for anyone wanting to relax and unwind in beautiful surroundings. We loved this hotel and hope to return soon.
- Sunny (10/5): - Stunning relaxing beautiful location food & drink were excellent, staff went out of their way to make our stay a dream!
- Thomas (10/5): -
- Brigitte (10/5): Ein Hotel zum Wohlfühlen - Traumhaftes Hotel
- Stefan (10/5): -
- Michelle (10/5): Amazing - Beauty and perfection. I liked everything
- guidothecat (10/5): Hotel Lemongarden Restaurant Was Memorable Family Luncheon - We boated from Split to Sutivan on Brac Island for lunch at Hotel Lemongarden’s restaurant. It was fabulous. The staff helped moor the boat and we walked a few feet to the covered patio in front of the charming restaurant. The staff was excellent, friendly, welcoming and well informed. The service, menu selections and quality of food were all superior. I’d like to revisit and stay at the hotel which promised to be a great experience. What a great visit to a tiny cove and village.
- kikishrimp (10/5): wonderful - i loved this hotel . it’s set in a very beautiful location on the waterfront. the hotel buildings themselves are very old and beautifully restored . the pool area is so very pretty with incredible flowers and lots of birds including doves that swoop around and gather in little flocks by the pool . i felt like amy adam’s in the movie enchanted .
we biked 15 mins to the private beach each day which again is stunning with a lovely restaurant .
the service is amazing , the restaurant on the waterfront is gorgeous . our room was spacious and again perfect .
my only gripe was a band playing outside on the last night but not under the hotels control it was a sutivan event .
we took the speedboat back to the airport which was super easy .
i think this is my favourite hotel in europe and i really hope to return .
- PGTravelTips (10/5): A Perfect Island Escape — Hotel Lemongarden Never Disappoints - This was our second stay at Hotel Lemongarden, and it somehow managed to surpass our already high expectations. Everything about this beautiful hotel, set in the heart of a charming harbour village on the island of Brac, is exceptional! From the warm, attentive staff to the impeccable facilities.
The breakfast setting right by the harbour is nothing short of idyllic. Starting each morning watching the boats while enjoying a delicious, beautifully presented breakfast was a highlight of our stay. A special thank you to Goran, Jelena, and Andela, who made every morning feel special with their friendly, personal service.
We loved the little touches that make this hotel so memorable. Borrowing the hotel bikes for a scenic cycle to the beach was such a joy, and renting the hotel’s mini car allowed us to explore the island at our own pace, discovering hidden coves and quaint villages along the way. Another huge plus is the direct hotel boat transfer to Split airport.
The pool area is tranquil and beautifully maintained, and Tin at the pool bar kept us refreshed and well-looked after. Evenings at the main bar were a treat too, thanks to Dani’s welcoming hospitality.
From room service to restaurant dining, every interaction with the hotel team was outstanding. The staff here genuinely care about their guests, and it shows in every thoughtful detail.
There are several restaurants nearby (we really liked the pizzeria) if you want a change to the hotel, or you can get a taxi to Supetar for even more choices.
Hotel Lemongarden is a true gem, and we already can’t wait to return for our third visit. Highly recommended to anyone looking for understated luxury, personalised service, and an authentic Croatian island experience.
- Mirela (10/5): amazing, magical - everything! it’s purely amazing
- clem-capetown (10/5): Something extraordinary. - What an absolutely fabulous experience.
This hotel is like none other we have ever visited. Such attention to detail. Excellence around every corner. Wonderful staff and everything immaculate!! Everything was to be treasured and remembered. From the pool and gardens; the beach house; the sound of the bells from the nearby church; the glorious use of colour in interior design; the food etc. I don’t have enough superlatives.
And then the fantastic staff. Who made our visit so lovely. Thank you to you all. And particularly Jelena for going the extra mile.
We hope to return one day.
- Mjm (10/5): A slice of Paradise - What an amazing place. Everything was simply perfect and the hotel team were exceptional. We would definitely go back. The accommodation, the public areas and the beach club were superb....not to mention the restaurant, which was outstanding.
Definitely try the private boat transfer ! Nothing... Literally cannot think of one thing!!
- Greta (10/5): Exceptional - Our experience at Hotel Lemongarden was outstanding. The atmosphere was serene, perfect for relaxation. The beach was pristine, and the pool was absolutely fantastic. Breakfast was a delightful start to each day. We highly recommend and plan to return.
- M1759JUdonnar (10/5): Quiet luxury and beauty on Brac - Everything about this hotel is fantastic. The private beach is particularly wonderful - large area, very quiet and serene, spotless bathrooms, food and drink available at the small onsite restaurant, plenty of chairs, heavenly hammocks. They offer complimentary shuttle to the private beach but you can also take well-maintained bikes which we did and it's a very easy pleasant 10-15 minute ride over.
The pool is beautifully designed but would be more enticing if it was heated a bit warmer. Rooms are large, well appointed, wonderful sheets and beds, and fabulous bathrooms. Staff are nice, albeit "Croatian-cool" in demeanor. We didn't opt for the private transfer but if you don't mind spending 400 Euros (we could afford it easily but still found it more than we felt it was worth) it would be a stylish, fast, luxe way to get door to door service from the airport to this gem of a hotel. We only had breakfast, no lunches or dinners, but the food was excellent and presented beautifully.
One of the best hotels we've stayed at in 20 years.
- Escape62988278762 (10/5): Fabulous hotel!! - We spent three days at the Lemongarden and used it as a base to explore Split (took the ferry) and the island of Brač, where the hotel is located. First the hotel itself is in a great location. Our room was excellent, although unforunately we not not have a view of the ocean. Service was also excellent, without being overbearing. We had dinner at the hotel the first night and then explored ate at other places that were within short walking distance for the 2 other nights. We had an entire day free on Brač and didn't know what we were going to do until the front desk informed us that they have 3 Mini Cooper convertibles (manual transmission) for rent at €125/day with everything included. So we rented one and had a blast exploring the island: went to the top of Vidova Gora, where we could see the neighboring island of Hvar and even Italy; the villages of Bol, Pučišća (where we visited a stonemasonry high school); and Škrip (where we did a tour of an olive oil museum). All and all a great place to stay. I would defintiely stay there again if we return to Brač.
- Paul (10/5): Without any doubt the best hotel on beautiful Brač island - Wonderful location, setting and buildings. Breakfast, bar and restaurant directly at the port of Sutivan is amazing.
Everything is impeccable clean and staff is super friendly. High quality restaurant with excellent service.
Great private beach at 2km with nice bar restaurant, super easy to reach by provided bikes or by the hotel golf cart service if you are lazy :)
- Niksa (10/5): Exceptional - We love it here. Frendly staff, great pool, great wibe...
- Mark (10/5): - The Hotel is amazing! Beautiful setting, first class restaurant and excellent staff. We will definitely be back.
- Peer (10/5): Close to paradise - A wonderful hotel with a lovely staff at a perfect spot. I would love to go there again.
- dee090 (10/5): Paradise Found - We loved this hotel. I was looking for a hotel where we could relax & unwind & feel pampered. The Lemongarden achieved this.
After we collected our luggage at Split airport we were met & taken to the private speedboat & whisked off to Sutivan harbour. We were delighted our room was ready early so we could unpack & settle down for lunch at the waterside restaurant. Afterwards, an afternoon by the pool beckoned. We were the only ones there. The pool is gorgeous. The gardens are immaculate. The staff are all delightful. The scent of jasmine & sound of the birds made us instantly relax.
Any plans to explore Brac or further afield vanished. This was a holiday for complete relaxation.
Nothing is any bother. Smiling staff. Good service. Genuinely the best sleep I've had in years.
We spent a couple of afternoons at the beach. We aren't really beach people but this area is pretty special. A super beach bar (we preferred the lunch menu here to the one at the hotel). We were spoiled because the weather was gorgeous yet we pretty much had the place to ourselves.
We probably would have had more dinners at the hotel but as a non red meat eater I struggled to find what I wanted on the current menu. (There is a decent vegan section but that doesn't appeal to me.) However it was nice to try the other little restaurants around the harbour too.
There were no negatives but as an observation I'd mention that although the hotel is adult only there is a children's playground directly beyond the pool area which can get 'lively' at certain times of the day but it wasn't a problem for us.
A fabulous stay here. One of the staff mentioned that they get many repeat guests which is no surprise. I hope I'm one.
Finally, the macaroons are absolutely divine!

- Quailsar (10/5): Goran is the best(as is Posip & The Lemongarden ) - A lovely afternoon with Goran tasting Croatia’s local wine accompanied by some delicious regional delicacies. We got to experience a full range of what wines Croatia has to offer. Goran was very accommodating and adaptive to our needs. 5*
- rhroncich2018 (10/5): Better then we could’ve imagined - We spent two weeks traveling down the coast from Zagreb to Dubrovnik, alternating between the coast and islands. Hotel Lemongarden was BY FAR the highlight of the entire trip. The staff, especially Jelena and Sandra at the front desk and all of the servers at the restaurant, were unbelievably attentive and truly invested in our experience. We had an incredible suite with a rooftop patio and view of the coast that I still dream about weekly. The spa was also a highlight; I’ve never stayed somewhere where you schedule your own time in the spa and have all of the options available only to you. The breakfast which is included was truly astounding. And the servers, picking up quickly on the first morning that we like mimosas, would bring us some every morning thereafter. We took the golf cart ride to the private beach- it’s a very short ride and WELL worth it. It’s truly private and the bar and restaurant staff there were equally amazing and attentive. This was the most intimate and high end resort experience I’ve ever had that didn’t feel like a stuffy resort. And the location is perfect. We had a car and they provided parking. Although it was hard to want to leave the hotel! The swimming pool is even more amazing in person. It was such an incredible hotel that my boyfriend chose our rooftop patio to propose! It was phenomenal and we WILL be back!
- Roberta (10/5): Private paradise. - This is a little private paradise.
Staff is always prepared to meet all your needs.
Breakfast and restaurant of the hotel excellent quality.
Expensive but worth the splurge.
Fabulous garden.
Quiet and relaxing out of season.
Parking free and convenient. Nothing really.
- MacAlanAXLH (10/5): Outstanding hotel; Exceptional service & staff - Having been fortunate enough to stay in many top quality hotels I have to say this hotel is up there as one of the best if not the best. The location, architecture, accommodation, grounds, facilities, service, staff, & the quality of the food - all exceptional! We will definitely be back.
- n0rbr8ck (10/5): An exceptional hotel staffed by exceptional people. - I have stayed in many top hotels around the World, but Hotel Lemongarden is exceptional in every way. The design, integrating various original buildings into a fascinating whole, is both unusual and delightful; the rooms are immaculately presented and gorgeously decorated; the gardens are beautifully set out and meticulously maintained; the dining experience on the quayside is first-rate; and, above all, the staff are, without exception, pleasant, friendly, extremely helpful and courteous. What a pleasure it was to visit the Lemongarden (and earlier in the year, one of its equally superb 'sisters', Das Tyrol in Vienna). Highly recommended without reservation for those seeking luxury in a quiet, peaceful environment..
- Elizabeth (10/5): Relaxing break in beautiful surroundings - It was top class service from beginning to end. The staff are welcoming and friendly and nothing was too much trouble There were some biting insects around the pool area that loved me !! No one else seemed to be affected but meant we could not spend too much time there once we realised that’s where I was bitten ( wherever and which ever side my leg or arm touched the beautiful plants ).
- Mathieu (9/5): Superb -
- FlyingK6517 (10/5): Beautiful spot! - We absolutely loved our recent stay at the Hotel Lemongarden! The staff is so kind and helpful. The restaurant has amazing food in a beautiful setting right on the harbor. Their private beach area is about a mile away so a bit of a walk or bike but very nice. You can have lunch and change there also. Onsite parking is a few blocks away so if you come by car, call first. Highly recommend this beautiful spot!
- SamuelR447 (10/5): Amazing Stay in an authentic hotel with top experience. We loved it ! - Wow! What an experience from start to the end (almost). We loved the private transfer by boat to start with, what a boat! And the arrival was sweet at the hotel; several houses made of typical stone houses in the village, beautiful. The Suite was just amazing with breathtaking views over the harbour. Comfortable and big suite (ok we took the biggest), best beds, and in the morning outstanding breakfast by the water. We loved it! Good attention at arrival and when needed. Amazing pool, even greater private beach 15mn away with great service, smiling and helping staff. Possible to borrow bikes or use their transfer hotel/beach. A no brainer easy and flexible. Great! Amazing dinner with the kids there too with tasty food and I recommend this amazing rental of a Fiat 500 without issues nor headache. You will like home at a friend. The Spa is nice but limited in what is available but that’s fine.
What can be improved ? Not much
Maybe the maid does not need to knock at the door at 08.30 for cleaning (do not forget therefore the non disturb sign if you want to sleep later). The cleaning was good but sometimes late in the day.
At departure I forgot my shirt in the room and called back a few days later. Nobody had found it though I know it was left in the walking closet. I was not really welcome when I called back, rudeness of the staff.
Front desk could potentially slightly level up welcoming the guests even though it is ok, could be warmer. I could not accommodate the proposed changed in timing of private transfer and a little rude reaction even though we kept it as initially planned.
So room to twist it and elevate the experience slightly to reach the sky but in the meanwhile everything was perfect even though pricy !
- Richard (10/5): Exceptional -
- RKVBK (10/5): Pasticada with gnocchi !!! Thank you Peter 😄 - I can make review only for restaurant as we were not on hotel but restaurant is absolutely top ( Hotel as well probably ).
Restaurant is in very nice port of Sutivan city and we spent here every evening of our last week on Brac. Excelent meals and wines.
- tlh02 (10/5): Don't think twice - just go - Our family of four stayed at the Hotel Lemongarden for 5 nights in July and we wish we would have stayed a few days longer. The resort is unique, intimate, beautifully landscaped and something I doubt could be replicated. The resort is intertwined with the town and community. Below is some detailed information that might be helpful.

Definis Building rooms 4 & 5. Since our daughters were 17 & 20 we wanted two rooms near each other. We were offered three options and we chose the largest rooms. All the rooms are unique - so your experience will be different depending on the room selection. Definis 4 & 5: one was a deluxe suite and the other deluxe suite sea view. The sea view room was slightly larger. Both of these rooms share a very large rooftop terrance that was stunning (but given it was so hot while we were there the rooftop terrance wasn't used much).
Some of the rooms require a large amount of walking up hill/steps. If you have mobility issues, please consult with reception prior to making your reservation.
Rooms had great air conditioning and we enjoyed the in room coffee service. We felt the bathrooms were a little basic, the showers were small and very simple...not luxurious at all but they got the job done.
Food:
Great food - ate breakfast every day and dinner 3 nights. We enjoyed the seaside tables and service. If you get breakfast included - you can order whatever you want off of the menu and as much as you want. If you have any food allergies or vegetarian/vegan requests - tell the restaurant a day or two before your reservation so that they can accommodate your request. Goran & Mateo were very friendly and provided great customer service.
Location:
Adorable small town. Our boat tour picked us up right in front of the hotel. For the island tour - we were picked up one street away. There are two markets within a 10 minute walk from the hotel. Taxis to neighboring towns are available and the front desk can arrange pickup. There are ATM machines near the hotel.
Pool:
The water was warm, the landscaping perfect. The only downside was the cheap pool chairs and pads - they could invest some money around the pool. Pigeons roost in the building next door and the adjacent park. They can be loud at times. If you aren't a fan of birds - don't hang by the pool.
Beach:
You can not walk to the private beach in the summer - it is too hot. A golf cart is always available to take you. Many people ride bikes to the beach...but note...the road turns to gravel half way there. The beach area is very relaxing and shady. This was our favorite place. The sea is beautiful, clear, warm and peaceful. There are towels, bathrooms and food service. Note - 3 of us are vegetarians and there are no vegetarian meals at the beach. They will happily modify a recipe to make it vegetarian...but for the price, that doesn't make sense. They should add one vegetarian meal to the menu.
Spa:
They have a very nice private spa . To front desk can reserve your one hour time slot.
Transfers:
Do the hotel boat transfer. I simply emailed reception once and airport pickup was arranged. For 350 euro a gentleman met us at the airport with a sign....he drove us in his car three minutes to the dock. A speedboat delivered us to the hotel door within 30-40 min. Upon departure - for 250 euro a speedboat took us to Split for our next transfer. Super easy and stress free.
Bottom line: The hotel is like a dream. I can't think of a better place to relax and escape daily life. Keep in mind, the hotel is romantic, charming, and unique with excellent customer service that stands out. I would not call the hotel luxurious. I can't wait to return some day soon.
- Robin007 (10/5): Faultless beyond expectation - On the final night, sat on the harbour edge, eating yet another superb meal we discussed areas of our stay that we felt could be improved …. We found none, absolutely nothing!
Hotel Lemongarden and the beautiful village of Sutivan were quite remarkable. The hotel is of the highest standards from top to bottom (top three worldwide we’ve stayed at), staff throughout, rooms, pool, gardens, food, drink just everything has had so much thought and focus put into it you simply couldn’t ask for a better experience. The private beach is amazing and a wonderful addition for a relaxed day by the sea.
I don’t want to write too much more, as like many others, wish I could keep it a secret BUT this hotel and its staff deserve credit. If you’re looking for quiet luxury, surrounded by amazing staff who simply cannot do more for you, on a beautiful island then you really need not look any further than Hotel Lemongarden.
We will be back.
- Steven (10/5): - Awesome
- FionaRV (10/5): Absolute luxury in Sutivan 🌞 - This was our fifth stay at the lemongarden and as always it was amazing. It’s so peaceful and just what you need for some R&R. The rooms are all fab and the service is excellent . Before we left we made our booking for next year we were so gutted to be leaving, huge thanks to Jelena and her entire team including: Katerina, Goran, Fisch, Dani, Vedran to name just a few. All of the staff are fabulous sorry I can’t recall all of their names 👏👏
- Emdrago (10/5): Perfect Honeymoon Hotel - We spent part of our honeymoon at the Hotel Lemongarden and safe to say it was the highlight of our trip!
To start, the facilities are absolutely spectacular. The rooms are so well-designed and unique, with plenty of space and very well appointed. The hotel pool is as idyllic as it looks in photos, and the bar and restaurant are gorgeous as well. There is a spa facility with a sauna and steam room that can be reserved for free by guests, which was a wonderful surprise.
The beach is absolutely beautiful. We learned that there are technically no private beaches in Croatia, but Lemongarden has a tucked away beach accessible by complimentary hotel shuttle or bike that has a large, stunning area for hotel guest use only. The sea is stunning, there are cozy hammocks and plenty of lounge chairs, bathrooms, and a fantastic restaurant.
The food at the hotel is some of the best we had in Croatia. From the complimentary Welcome Drink (the Lemongarden Spritz), to the daily breakfast with homemade marmalade, baked goods, and fresh fruit, to the fine dining at dinner and the grilled items at lunch, we loved everything we tried. Our only wish is that the lunch menu was a bit more extensive.
The service was top-notch, and they made our stay one to remember. We can't recommend enough!
- bobb480 (10/5): The Most Beautiful and Relaxing Hotel Ever - The photos don't do this hotel justice. It is so beautiful. Every inch of the hotel and everything is so well thought through. The grounds and gardens fo this hotel is stunning. Service is impeccable. We rented the car and drove around the island for one day. That was fun. But the hotel and beach area (15 minute bike ride away) is so relaxing and beautiful it was great to do nothing. Breakfast and dinner by the sea at the hotel restaurant each night was beautiful and delicious. The small town of Sutivan is beautiful with a handful of good restaurants and not overrun with tourists. The staff at the hotel is highly trained to meet your every need. So nice and cheerful. Daniela was our favorite in the restaurant. Breakfast is plentiful and delicious. Everything made to order. The hotel has it own's bakery and pastry shop. 5 stars all the way around. Beds and comfortable and rooms are dark and cool. The most relaxing 4 days ever. We will be back.
- G8029IMstuartp (10/5): Hotel paradise in Croatia - The Lemongarden Hotel is perfect. We stayed there in July with our family (all adults) and everthing about this hotel is 10/10. Jelena and her team made us feel very welcome and it is the personal touches which make this such a special place to stay.
The facilities are first class, including the gorgeous swimming pool. Breakfast next to the sea is the hilight of every day, the smell of freshly baked bread is hard to resist. The beachclub is wonderful, the sea cystal clear and plenty of sun beds and shade to suit everyones needs. You must try the hammocks too!
It is easy to get there, a short flight to Split and then a water taxi straight to the hotel door at Sutivan.
- Mark (10/5): - beautiful hotel with amazing staff. will definitely return.
- Pedjab (10/5): Perfection - Everything Nothing
- Sverre (10/5): Exceptional - EVERYTHING!
- Birgit (10/5): Exceptional - This Place is a Juwel The only thing that should be improved is the food as well at the beach as at dinner. A bit too contrived, more fresh Salads, fresh vegetables and fresh fruit would be appreciated. Simple is sometimes better!
- Svetlana (10/5): - One of my favorite hotels I have ever stayed in. I loved everything about it. I believe there are 39 rooms on site so it feels cozy. The food was great. I enjoyed the beautiful pool and beach. I would definitely come back. The staff was very welcoming.

- Joanna (10/5): Serenity, sunshine and relaxation in a stunningly beautiful location - This is the best hotel I’ve ever stayed at, and I’ve travelled extensively. It’s the whole package of a beautiful location, fabulous garden and beach coupled with stunning decor and exceptional service. I plan to return. Which is usually for me as I never stay at the same hotel twice. Nothing!
- Rob (10/5): A true paradise - We have stayed in many 5 star hotels in the world and we can say that Lemongarden is ranked on our top 3.
The location on the waterfront of of the marina of Sutivan is fabulous. The premisses of the hotel are beautiful and extremely well taken after. The hotel consists of some historical buildings that are perfectly restored according to their historical origins.
The interior design of our room reached to perfection. The pool is situated in the garden which enjoys a breath taken beauty. But above all it is the very professional hospitality and kindness of all the staff members of which manager Jelena and the front desk staff members are the top.
It was a joy to have dinner and breakfast at the waterside. We also have to mention Chef Ate who’s cooking skills are phenomenal. The beach club is about 15 min away by bike - at free disposal to the guest. But you can also benefit from the pleasure to be brought and picked up by the golf carts of the hotel.
We rented the mini cabriolet of the hotel for 1 day to explore the island.
We also took profit of the use of the speedboat of the hotel to do the crossing from Split. Vlado was the perfect skipper. We had an unforgettable stay. Everything is just perfect
- Diane (10/5): One of the most beautiful hotels we have stayed in. - The location was stunning. The hotel building and grounds were stunning, with it's own vegetable garden and a lovely pool area. If you want to totally relax this hotel is for you. We took the bikes that you could have for free and rode to the beach which was so lovely. The breakfast was delicious with homemade bread and chocolate croissants, eggs, cheeses and meats. Dinner was exceptional. Lemongarden heaven! The beach beds and beach could have been more comfortable.
Our room was lovely but the outside seating area was overlooked and scattered with pine tree leaves.
The bedroom was a bit cave like as it didn't really have a view, but modern and very comfortable.

- Mehul (10/5): What a wonderful stay, this is a unique and luxury hotel and the staff really goes above and beyond. -
- Silvia (10/5): Amazing in every detail - This is one of the most beautiful hotels I’ve ever stayed. The attention to details is in every corner: from the wonderful gardens and pool to the very spacious and beautifully furnished apartment. We had a marina front view, which was really special, but I think the garden view is wonderful too. I have to say that the staff at this hotel deserves a review of its own: not only attentive and friendly, but also really makes you feel they are really there for anything you might ask. Simply amazing. There isn’t anything I can think to say that I didn’t enjoy
- Judith (10/5): Staying at the Hotel Lemongarden was like staying in paradise, with beautiful surroundings, delicious food, and attenti - The staff were very friendly and helpful. We had a beautiful room and it was very kind of you to upgrade us to a suite. The little touches like tea brought to you whenever you like, chocolates delivered in the evening, free bikes and sole use of the spa were great. Breakfasts were absolutely delicious and the best we have had anywhere. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay. Nothing. We did get a few insect bites sitting next to the pool but that’s what you’d expect in such a beautiful garden.
- Carey (10/5): I had planned a few days of relaxation with my husband prior to my surgery. our stay was fantastic, the staff were frien - the incredible garden and beautiful swimming pool
