The resort also has a restaurant complex including two buffet restaurants, an à la carte restaurant, as well as wellness facilities, lounge bars and pools.

A special feature of Port 9 Resort is Marko Polo Kids – an animation programme for children focusing on discovering Korčula through learning, creative activities, and sport.

Kids activities include such things as learning about the history of Korčula via creative workshops focusing on skills and crafts perfected by the ancient inhabitants of the island like shipbuilding and stone carving.

The resort, which was designed by leading Croatian architect Duje Kaliterna, will open its doors next week.
