Korcula corker
Croatia’s coastline is cute, but the seaside megahotels aren’t. The Lesic Dimitri Palace, opening next month, should redress the balance a little: a local family has spent four years meticulously renovating an 18th-century bishop’s residence and medieval cottages, creating a six-room hidey-hole tucked away in the old town of Korcula. It has original carvings, beams, balconies, wells, even original kitchen sinks—plus a non-original, but rather lovely, spa and private yacht.
