Step Inside the Launch Event that Introduced Dalmatia’s Newest Boutique Luxury Hotel

Hotel Katarina officially opened for its first Adriatic season, marking a defining moment not only for Orebić but for the entire Korta Katarina Collection. As the newest addition to the portfolio—and the second Relais & Châteaux property in Orebić, joining its iconic sister estate Villa Korta Katarina & Winery, the hotel’s debut represents the next chapter in the region’s evolution toward world‑class, boutique luxury.


The opening celebration unfolded along the hotel’s sun‑drenched terraces and waterfront gardens, where guests gathered to toast the beginning of a new era on the Pelješac Peninsula. The atmosphere blended contemporary coastal elegance with the warmth of Dalmatian hospitality, offering an intimate glimpse into the experiences that will define Hotel Katarina’s inaugural season. As the sun set behind Korčula, the evening transitioned into a vibrant celebration of everything the property stands for: thoughtful design, elevated service, and a deep connection to the land, sea, and wine culture that shape this extraordinary corner of the Adriatic.


From culinary moments to live music to private tours of the hotel’s serene spaces and a spectacular fireworks display, the event offered a first look at what travelers can expect from this boutique retreat. With its official opening, Hotel Katarina signals a bold new chapter for luxury travel in Dalmatia, and an unforgettable beginning to its first Adriatic season.
