About
Located only a few yards from the sea in Božava, the recently reconstructed Hotel Lavanda is surrounded by a pine forest, offering comfortable, air-conditioned accommodations with sea views. In front of the hotel is a private rocky beach, but if you prefer sandy beaches you can go to Sakarun, one of the most picturesque beaches of Dugi Otok. Sample delicious Croatian specialties, accompanied by tasty Dalmatian wines. They are served on the spacious restaurant terrace with magnificent views of the Adriatic Sea.

Pros +
- Breakfast was good,dinner excellent,location perfect.
- Beautiful location of the hotel! The staff were wonderful , very friendly, professional, accommodating and helpful. Comfy beds and lovely area overall.
- The position of hotel is close to the beach.
Cons -
- Small room,good for single bed.
- Very outdates facilities, in serious need of upgrade. Noisy aircon and bathroom fan. Tiles of the bathroom floor and shower were not clean and full of mould. Very disappointing considering it is something that can be easily cleaned.The biggest disappointment is breakfast: very cheap, unhealthy breakfast, including artificial, sugary 'juices' from the dirty machines. Coffee was actually horrible, and sugar in the jars was almost calcified. Just felt very unsanitary. Not very much options for the breakfast, no fresh fruit at all. Considering the price of the accommodation, location and locality, absolutely unacceptable to have such a low quality food in Croatia for breakfast. The management of the hotel should seriously consider the cleanliness of the place. Complete change of the breakfast menu. It doesn't take much to serve some fresh juice, lemonade and fresh fruit and some decent coffee in the morning.
- The room was really dirty, with hair from other visitors everywhere, the table from balcony saw water and soap only in pictures, the shower was terrible and we did not have the courage to take a bath, the bed was not clean, the furniture really old, the toilet not clean enough. We stayed 2 days and after the first one they threw the trash from balcony on the floor. The food was from several days ago most likely and I would not recommend anyone to go there unless you want to spend a day on the bathroom, which is also not a really nice place to be in.

Location is perfect!
Breakfast is poor, no fresh fruit
Location, beautiful nature, friendly staff, good parking, beautiful mediterranean gardens.
Facilities (except the aircondition) were outdated in the 1990's already ?. The food is edible, nothing more than that. The trays with cheeses and salamis in the buffet are not cooled, so after 30 min you can choose which type of melted cheese do you like.The coffee in the breakfast buffet is not real coffee, but kind of Croatian coffee replacement from the Old days ?, meaning zero caffeine. I will come back to Long Island, but not to this hotel.
It was very good, in spite of old fascilities, we enjoyed our staying in your hotel. Staff is really kind and helpful.
Very helpful and friendly staff, great location, great pool!
Despite of older built, very clean and soundproof and comfy!
Walking distance from the car.
This place is really beautiful, nature is amazing. Room was a bit old but clean, you also have refrigerator inside. Pool area is nice. You have a few bars and restaurants nearby, but this place is really small and calm.
The food in restaurant isn't bad, but it would be great to have more fish and more choice. Wine, beer and drinks are included.
Everything was great. Food was perfectly fine and the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful.
