Stermasi's 11 apartments (from €65) are bright and modern, and either have a terrace or private balcony. But the big draw here is the restaurant, serving flavoursome, authentic Dalmatian food prepared with love and skill. House specialities include vegetables, octopus or kid goat cooked under a peka (metal dome), wild boar with gnocchi and Mljet-style brodet (fish stew).
