Mlini

Mlini is a seaside village in the Župa Dubrovačka bay, tucked along the coast just south of Dubrovnik. Reaching it without your own car can be more awkward than it first looks: the coastal buses are limited and seasonal, keep to their own schedule, and turn slow and tiring the moment you add luggage. Dubrovnik's old town, where many routes pass, is entirely pedestrianised, so a stop there still leaves you carrying bags to the end. A private transfer booked ahead solves all of it, taking you straight from the airport to your door.

Getting to and from Mlini

Dubrovnik Airport at Čilipi is the gateway to this stretch of coast, and Mlini lies between the airport and the city, which makes for a short and easy run. With a private transfer your driver is waiting in arrivals with a name board, tracks your flight so the timing flexes if you are early or delayed, lends a hand with the suitcases and drives you directly to your accommodation in the bay. The fare is fixed and agreed before you travel, settled by card, so there are no taxi queues and nothing to haggle over once you arrive.

The same door-to-door service covers your return flight and any trips during your stay. Mlini sits close to its neighbouring villages of Srebreno and Plat in the same Župa Dubrovačka bay, and connects easily to Dubrovnik, the elegant town of Cavtat just down the coast, and the port at Gruž for ferries and cruises. A reserved vehicle turns what might be several bus connections into one relaxed journey, with the same driver and the same fixed price throughout.

About Mlini

Mlini takes its name from the watermills once driven by the freshwater springs that flow down to the sea here, a feature that has long set it apart along this coast. It is one of the small seaside villages of the Župa Dubrovačka, the gentle bay immediately south of Dubrovnik, and has a calm, leafy, residential feel rather than the bustle of a large resort. With its waterfront promenade, pebble coves and easy proximity to both the airport and the old town, Mlini suits travellers who want a quiet base by the water with the city comfortably within reach.
