DResort occupies a privileged position on a finger of land curving around Šibenik’s yacht marina. Wake to mirror‑calm water, watch sailboats drift in at sunset, then taxi or boat‑hop into the Old Town for dinner in medieval lanes beneath St James’ Cathedral.

From here you’re perfectly placed for day trips inland to the waterfalls and emerald pools of Krka National Park, or for island‑hopping along one of Croatia’s most photogenic stretches of coast. Šibenik itself feels authentically Croatian: terracotta rooftops, Venetian‑era stonework and a relaxed waterfront promenade rather than big‑city bustle.

• Located directly on the marina and seafront
• Approx. 2km to nearest shops, bars and restaurants
• Approx. 3km to Šibenik Old Town
• Approx. 15km to Krka National Park

Approx. transfer time from airport: 1 hr from Split (SPU), depending on traffic.

Dining at DResort is very much part of the experience, with a strong sense of place and wide marina views from many tables:

• Art Restaurant – Stylish à la carte venue serving a refined mix of international and Dalmatian dishes for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Expect local seafood, seasonal ingredients and thoughtfully plated tasting menus.

• Peninsula Restaurant – Poolside à la carte restaurant (open roughly July–mid‑September, weather and occupancy dependent) with fresh Mediterranean grills, salads and light lunches ideal between swims.

• Yacht Restaurant – Overlooking the marina and pool, serving international and local favourites for lunch (usually May–September, weather dependent) – a great choice for leisurely long lunches watching the boats.

Bars are dotted across the resort so you’re never far from a drink with a view:

• Art Bar – Sophisticated piano bar for aperitifs and post‑dinner cocktails.
• Lobby Bar – Calm lounge for coffees, wines and casual meetings.
• Yacht Bar – Pool bar for cold drinks and daytime refreshments.
• Beach/Pool Bar – At the beach club pool, perfect for lounging between dips (seasonal opening).
• Roof Bar – Adults‑only rooftop cocktail bar (typically July–August evenings) with 360° marina and bay panoramas – the place for sunset.

A smart‑casual dress code may apply in certain venues, and opening dates and hours can vary by season and occupancy. Reservations or supplements may be required depending on your board basis.

The resort is designed to keep you close to the water, whether you’re at the spa terrace or down by the beach club:

• Main outdoor pool – Freshwater pool with sunbathing terrace, sunbeds and parasols, set by the beach club area overlooking the bay (typically open June–October, weather/occupancy dependent). Inflatables are usually permitted, giving a relaxed, family‑friendly feel.

• Spa pool & kids’ section – Additional outdoor freshwater pool at the spa centre, featuring a shallower children’s section and a small kids’ pool, ideal for families wanting quieter surroundings and easy access to the spa and gym.

• Towels – Complimentary pool towels are provided, so you can travel light.

While there isn’t a long sandy beach here, the marina and seafront location give easy access to swimming platforms and boat trips to nearby coves and islands with pebble or sand beaches.

Šibenik gives you the best of both worlds: a characterful Croatian city with shops, bars and historic sights, plus a laid‑back waterfront and pebbled Blue Flag beaches where you can slow the pace. Local currency is the Euro (€) and the language is Croatian, though English is widely spoken in hotels and tourist areas. The time difference from the UK is usually +1 hour and flights to Split take around 3 hours from many UK airports.

DResort is a Certified Sustainable Hotel, having met a GSTC‑recognised standard at the time of assessment. As with all our featured properties, we regularly review facilities and sustainability credentials, but details – including entertainment schedules, opening dates and board inclusions – can change from season to season.
