Dubrovnik's airport at Cilipi does not have an airport hotel which can make for a very short night's sleep if you're catching one of the early flights to Zagreb. (see more on getting from Dubrovnik to Cilipi airport). It can make sense to stay close to the airport and here you do have some enticing options.

Cavtat

Only 4km from Cilipi airport, Cavtat is a good choice for your first or last night in Dubrovnik. It's right on the coast with a huge assortment of luxury resorts, boutique hotels and rental apartments.
