Lastovo Island has been designated by the WWF as one of the last ten paradises in the entire Mediterranean. This programme specifically aims to promote responsible tourism by supporting local endeavours involving eco-tourism and the private hospitality-accommodation sector. Our excursion to the island of Mrcara is a direct contribution towards the sustainable development and preservation of a unique natural habitat, rich in marine and plant biodiversity.
Because this holiday is designed for couples and small groups of independent travellers, its impact on the natural resources and sensitive eco-regions of this near-pristine archipelago is minimal.
Meeting your hosts and learning about their culture is a fundamental premise of all our holidays. Your hosts and guides on Lastovo are local people we have partnered with whose families have lived for generations in the area. Sharing their knowledge and stories with our guests gives them a more personal, insider's experience of Croatia.
Our excursions to the lighthouse and island of Mrcara support and preserve authentic cultural and culinary traditions. All of the food and drink is produced locally, fished from the sea that morning, grown in the hosts’ own gardens or raised on smallholdings. Homemade wine and brandies and other local specialties may often be purchased directly from your hosts.
This holiday offers guests a choice of accommodation – Klara Apartments on Skrivena Luka or the lighthouse of Struga. Klara Apartments is owned and managed by a local couple. Your hosts at the lighthouse are the lighthouse keeper and his wife. All are interested in sharing their knowledge of the island’s history, culture and traditions with their guests.
We invite every traveller who books a holiday via us to send in a review. Because we don't run the holidays they're completely independent and unedited... remember to read between the lines though, as two people on the same holiday can have different views!
