Croatia - Abandoned Hotels at Kupari Resort

Just returned from a great week in Croatia, we stayed at the lovely village of Cavat that's just a short boat trip from Dubrovnik.  On the coast between Cavat and Dubrovnik is the abandoned resort of Kupari.  The resort was built by the Yugoslav People's Army as a grand resort for military personnel and their families.  The entire resort complex came under heavy bombardment by the Yugoslav navy during 1991 Croatian war, this resulted in damage to all the buildings and the resort being  abandoned after the war.  Post the war all the buildings have been stripped of any thing of value.
