18th-century palace


6 themed independent suites
sea & outdoor adventures
Marco Polo's birthplace
refined Adriatic cuisine

People say that the Silk Road started from this island; Korčula has good reason to be proud to be home to Marco Polo's house, a stone’s throw from Lešić Dimitri Palace. The building's history dates back to the 17th century, when the Lešić family, rich property owners and merchants combined a number of semi-detached houses to create a palace worthy of that name. It has been meticulously renovated yet with a touch of contemporary design; its historical character and original layout have been retained and it now offers a small number of independent suites. Each evokes a step in Marco Polo's journey towards China, in a harmonious décor, with top-quality materials.

Our commitments

The Lešić Dimitri Palace lies within the ancient walls of the medieval town of Korčula, off Croatia’s coast. The building dates from the 17th-Century, when rich local landowners combined six adjacent houses to create an urban palace.
By the advent of Napoleonic rule, the palace was suffering from neglect. It was soon turned to public use, being used partly as a school. While its fine masonry survived, the many timbered parts suffered considerable damage. Rescue came in the form of a new owner, who bought the palace in 2000, and set about a painstaking restoration with the aim of returning it—precisely—to its former splendor. A dedicated team was formed, including specialist roles covering historical, restoration, and archeological research. A team of four oversaw the architectural design. The result was a deeply sympathetic restoration—a process that took some eight years to complete. The palace’s spacial form and decorative detail were fully retained, as well as the mediaeval town’s distinct fishbone layout.

Where the Silk Road begins

“Walk along narrow medieval streets where Marco Polo clumsily took his first steps.... The first steps along the Silk Route. See details of wonderful 'Gotica fiorita' palaces and St Mark’s cathedral, where Tintoretto's art stands alongside works of art masters. Listen to stories of this ancient island and feel the heartbeat of its history on the very spot. Let Mediterranean nature take a hold of you while driving and walking across the island. See small vineyards chiselled into the rocky hillsides. Taste their exquisite, strong wine. Feel the pulse of life in small narrow streets of the island's villages. Living in Korčula is like living history.”

Sail back in time with Kata

“Kata is one of the very few remaining authentic traditional small wooden motor boats that once were the most prominent product of local shipbuilding. She has been lovingly restored and now provides a luxurious way to explore the islands and enjoy bathing in our crystal clear sea upgraded with Michelin starred delicacies on board. Glide through the beautiful blue waters of Korčula's archipelago. Dive into crystalline depths swarming with exotic fish and try to catch some, the way locals do. I love to live with the wind and by the wind, and share that feeling with my guests, at least for a while…”

Immerse in history, cultural and natural heritage

Blessed with a mild and almost subtropical climate, Korčula, situated in the south of Dalmatia, is warmer than any of the islands to the north. That is probably one of the reasons why the town of Korčula is one of the most significant urban settlements on the east Adriatic coast. The town’s progressive spirit is best seen in its statutes from 1214, that regulated every aspect of island life and inspired other towns in the region to do the same. Walk along narrow medieval streets where Marco Polo took the first steps along the Silk Route and find out about local ways of life and fascinating facts that are not in the guidebooks.
