The Isolano, Cres, Autograph Collection

The Isolano sits in a pine grove on Cres Island, looking across the Adriatic and within an easy ten-minute walk of Cres town. This 49-room boutique resort, including four suites, takes a contemporary Mediterranean approach, using local stone, natural textures and island-inspired details rather than a standardized resort formula. Guestrooms feature private balconies, with views toward the sea or surrounding greenery, while selected infinity rooms open directly onto one of the heated outdoor pools. Dining focuses on the flavours of Cres and the wider Adriatic, with seafood, local produce and Croatian wines served in a relaxed coastal setting. Two heated pools, direct beach access, a 500-square-metre spa and a modern gym shape the leisure offering. Adults-friendly from age 12, the hotel has a calm, design-conscious atmosphere that feels more connected to the island than to the usual resort circuit.
