The villa was beautiful with magnificent views. It was a short 15 minute walk to old town and the views along the way were amazing. The space was large and clean, and Tonci was a great host.
Had a great time at the accomodation, specifically the view on the sea is amazing. The house is spacious and facilities are decent.
Some things to keep in mind:
- house can be a bit noisy (i.e. from the middle floor you can hear each step/word from the upper floor)
- warm water can run out if you are with many people who need to shower, plan accordingly.
- stove was a bit confusing but host helped us
- it's a 20 min walk to the old town, ensure you are up to it
The villa is in a great location, 15 mins walk from the old town and 10 mins from a lovely little beach with a great bar. The views from the villa are stunning, each room has a sea view. The only issue we had was the air con didnât work in one room but after messaging the host, they sorted this out very quickly. We had a fantastic time so thank you!
Amazing location, next to steps / pathway down to the waters edge. Beds were comfortable and view was amazing. Perfect for our group of 7. Really appreciated the place to store luggage in old town.
We loved it here! Charming house in a great location - a lovely neighborhood and just steps away from an amazing swimming spot. We felt very taken care of by our hosts. We ran into an issue with the house (that was out of the hostsâ control) and they quickly dealt with it, ensuring we had a comfortable and easy stay. Highly recommend!
Beautiful location. Very walkable to the center and the Dubrovnik wall. Comfortable beds, good water pressure. There are stairs to all the bedrooms. Also, please note that all stores are closed on Sunday so plan accordingly.
Bigger bedrooms than looked in the photos. Parking is well known to be difficult in Dubrovnik so I recommend if you have a large vehicle using the local daily park rental. Lovely rocky beach spot below the property. We had issues with the heating but it wasn't overly cold even in March. Shower sometimes needs to refill with warm water so space out showers. very speedy response time. Nice quiet area to relax outside of town but close enough to walk or short Uber. it was a magical vacation and would definitely visit here again.
Overall our stay was quite pleasant, but there was some communication issues with the property managers. Be careful at check in because Google maps does a bad job showing where the property is. Perhaps the company should provide a map with more details of the location of the property to guide renters to the property.
Do not assume that listed amenities are available without clarifying with the property managers. Although a high chair is listed as one of the amenities, the property manager tried to charge âŹ5 per day have in the property. With some pushback they agreed to provide the chair without charge. However, it was not there when we arrived. The high chair was brought after an email to the property manager.
The biggest issue that we had was a shower that was not working properly. After reporting to the number listed, we heard no response after more than 12 hours. After emailing, we finally received a response but it took another 12 hours for the shower to be repaired.
The location of the property is excelent. Itâs about a 10-15 minute walk to the beach and 20-25 mins to old town. The property was clean and as described in the listen. The outdoor space was very nice for spending the evening after a long day at the beach. Overall, a very nice property, there are just some communication issues to be resolved.
