We are two couples who recently stayed at the best apt.location in Dubrovnik!! To be able to walk into Old Town so easily is a real treat. The apt.itself is very comfortable and nicely setup for two couples. The main bed is a king size with a great view of town. The only concern we had was that the Internet was abit slow. We all really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend Vera's apartment. Can't wait to return!!

My wife and I stayed 6 nights in Vera's apartment and had the best time. Vera was very quick to respond to email and arranging our stay was a breeze. The apartment has everything you need with a full kitchen and a washer/dryer. The location cannot be beat, being just minutes from the Old City and Banje Beach where we enjoyed the sun and water a couple days. The only warning I would give is that there are a good number of stairs to get up to the apartment; however, if you're visiting Dubrovnik and plan to see the Old City you should be prepared to walk MANY steps during your stay. We absolutely loved getting up in the morning and be able to see the ocean. We cannot wait to return to Croatia, such a gorgeous place with extremely friendly people.

Fabulous apartment in the best location in Dubrovnik. It is a very short walk to the beach, the Old City and everything you need for a wonderful stay in Dubroovnik. The apartment is in a charming old building, with lots of space and a well equipped kitchen, plus the views are gorgeous! We loved our time there, would stay there again and highly recommend it!

This is a spacious apartment in the best location of Dubrovnik. Views were incredible from the apartment. Beds were comfortable. The only thing I didn't realize is that the patio is not accessible direct from the living space - you must go down outdoor stairs to get to the patio. (This is not ideal for families with younger kids but I don't think you will find many 2 bedroom apartments in this area and price range that have a connecting patio). We enjoyed dining in Old Town at night, walked the walls, and enjoyed the beaches. Do not recommend the Mostar day trip. As my husband said, "we drove 3 hours to see a flea market". But Dubrovnik did not disappoint!

As other reviewers mention, this apartment is in a great location. It was nice to be near both the Old Town and beaches. Banje is right outside the apartment, but we preferred a more secluded beach that was an easy 5 minutes walk away from town. The apartment was very comfortable. Not too many stairs (compared to other places) and comfortable furnishings and beds. We had a car with us for one day...would not recommend that as parking was very difficult.

This was such a wonderful place to stay during our time in Dubrovnik! It was in a fabulous location, just a short walk to the old city and so close to Banje beach! Vera provided wonderful information prior to arriving at the apartment. It was definitely the highlight of our long vacation. Such a relaxed pace compared to France. I would definitely come back!

Just back from a week at Vera's simply delightful apartment. Close to everything - Banje beach is basically out the front door and it's less than a 5 minute walk to the gates of the wonderful Old City. Views are incredible - to truly appreciate I recommend leaving the air conditioning in the living room off and the windows open so you can enjoy the cool breezes off the water. It didn't get too hot inside during the day. Used the air in the bedroom and it was more than adequate. Kitchen is stocked with all the dishes, glasses and utensils you need, and the dishwasher is a HUGE bonus. Highly recommend taking the 15 or so minute walk to Sveti Jakov beach. Much quieter and more reasonably priced than Banje. Very scenic.

Wonderful property!! Stayed 4 nights in early July at beginning of our Croatia trip, the 2 bedroom apartment was very convenient for our family of four (two kids ages 6 and 9). Great, firm beds and best pillows of our entire trip. A/C in each room, which doesn't always happen in Croatia, full kitchen and frig and washing machine. Views of the city and water from the windows were gorgeous each day. Located in incredible location on the "quiet" side of Dubrovnik, just a short 5 minute walk into the city walls, just above Banje Beach and Hotel Excelsior (treated myself to a spa day and my kids got to use their amazing pool). WiFi not the strongest but enough for emails and surfing, as stated in prior review. Owner is great to work with. Overall, could not pick a better place, great value.

We stayed for a week at Vera's apartment in Dubrovnik, and had a wonderful time. The description and photos here are very accurate -- the apartment is just outside the old city walls (Ploce Gate) and across the street from the pretty public beach. (This is a very desirable part of the city to stay in -- much quieter than the Pile Gate side -- as evidenced by two of the city's top hotels, the Excelsior and Argentina, both just a few steps up the road from the apartment.) The views of the Adriatic from the apartment are incomparable! So beautiful to wake up to each morning! The rooms are spacious and well-equipped, each with air conditioning and huge windows. One room has a king bed and the other has 2 twins. There is a clothes washer and dishwasher -- both very helpful when traveling with children! The apartment was very clean and well-maintained and Vera is helpful with info / advice / help as needed. I appreciated that the apartment had things like salt, olive oil and coffee filters, which made it feel more welcoming than other places we've rented. Not to mention cleaning supplies, ample bath towels and loads of guide books! We spent a day exploring Dubrovnik and walking the city walls (very beautiful) and a day sea-kayaking around Lokrum Island, which was SO fun. Don't bother with the sea kayaking tours, which are expensive and you'll be with 12 other boats on busy days. Instead, just walk down to Banje Beach and rent your own kayak (75 kuna / hour, I believe). We did the same route as the tours, but took our time and had the caves all to ourselves. Our 6 year old son just loved it! We took the local city bus to Lapad Beach one day, which is a beautiful bay for swimming, but the beach is no nicer than Banje (all the beaches seem to be pebbly vs. sandy) and the area is very built-up with huge resorts. Instead, I wished we'd taken a day trip to Korcula, which is the one place nearby that many people recommended and we didn't get to see. We also rented a car for 2 days from one of the local car rental shops (a few doors down from the apartment, just across the street from the grocery store -- again, all super convenient) and went to Mostar (in Bosnia Herzegovina) and the Bay of Kotor (in Montenegro), which were both fantastic! Fortunately, Vera's apartment was full of guidebooks (thank you!), so we could plan our stay real-time and take advantage of all the nearby sites.

This was the highlight of our 10 day trip around Croatia, we stayed 4 nights. Beautiful views. Almost inside the city walls, so all the advantages but with more space and quiet. Taxi rank , beach and supermarket right outside. Beach pebbly (take watershoes) and close enough to walk back with just a towel.. Boat and jetski rental too expensive to consider (200 Euro/hour).. so no-one was really doing it. Boat taxi rentals at the old town marina is very close. Take a water taxi to Lokrum (takes 10 minutes, leaves every 30 minutes) see peaccks, great food, Maximilians palace. Naturist beach]h. There are 3+ rental units/apartments-all separately owned/managed and a couple of permanent residents in a lovely old home with a big shared terrace. Everyone was friendly. The negatives were minor inconveniences.. you have to walk back down the back stairs to reach the terrace and the shower was pretty feeble, and WiFi wasn't fast enough to stream a video but okay for email, browsing, facebook etc... So many positives. A/C, views, location, beach, kitchen, comfy beds, and furniture, TV - even the funny looking pink paint in the pictures looks good when you actually see it. Great value, highly recommended. Too many steps for young children (under 5) , okay for 5+ - and no good for disabled.

Dubrovnik is stunningly beautiful and Vera's apartment was perfect. The location, the views, proximity to the old town but far enough away to be away from the crowds, and the apartment itself - everything was great. I would recommend Vera's apartment to anyone who wants to visit and stay in Dubrovnik. We will be back.

My husband and I spent a month in this apartment and it was perfect! It's clean, spacious and the location couldn't be better. The view from the apartment is spectacular, seeing the Adriatic and the Old Town, especially when it's lit at night. And the balcony, one floor below, is an added plus. We used the apartment as a home base, and did several 2-3 night stays in Split, Dubrovnik, etc, but were always happy to come "home". And the city is more than we could have imagined. We read much about the coastline before traveling here, but still are in awe of it's beauty. Will certainly return to Dubrovnik, and Vera's apartment.

My wife and I stayed here for nearly a week for our honeymoon. The apartment is very clean, spacious, and has fantastic views of the water and of the old walled city. The location is perfect - with a five minute walk to the old city and situated back from the main road enough making it very quiet and peaceful. The patio is a wonderful place to watch the sunset. We had an incredible time in Dubrovnik and this apartment is one of the reasons why. If you are planning on visiting to Dubrovnik we highly recommend this apartment.

My Girlfriend and I stayed in this apartment Oct 1-16, 2012. This place is the best location in Dubrovnik. Clean, close to the beaches, close to the Old City, and away from the cruise ships and crowds. I prefer this unit to anything I saw within the city walls because of the ocean breezes that come through the open windows. The Old City doesn't get the pleasant breezes rolling in from the Adriatic because of the city walls. Great terrace to watch the sun setting over the Old City too! Other units nearby had obstructing trees or buildings, or many more stairs to climb. This unit is just perfect. It was everything described. We will be back!

This apartment is in the perfect location and only a 5 minute walk to the East Gate of the old town. It has a stunning view - exactly as the picture in the posting shows. There is a great beach and beach club (where you can pay to get a lounge chair and umbrella if you choose) only 100 meters away. It is very spacious with high ceilings and a nice layout. It was spotlessly clean and the kitchen was well equipped. There is also a wash machine available for use. We received perfect instructions/directions to the apartment and it is quite easy to access (have to go up a few flights of stairs). The only thing we missed, is that there is no wifi in the apartment, which would have been nice for our 5 night stay. We would definitely stay here again and recommend this apartment.

We stayed in this apartment for 3 weeks and loved every minute! The location is amazing. The apartment has an amazing view and is super close to the beach and Old Town. With the amount of stairs in Dubrovnik you want to be close! The bottom line, the place was very nice, spacious and clean. The price was right and location ideal. We plan to stay here again! :) PS Visit Banje Beach Club, it is awesome!

My family and I had a great time staying at this apartment in Dubrovnik. The apartment was just as the photos indicated. It was well maintained, clean and a pleasure to be in. We arrived on a sunny Saturday afternoon. We made our way up to the apartment, went inside, immediately opened up the window shutters and there was that beautiful view of the Adriatic. Walking to/from Old Town was very convenient. Having now been to Dubrovnik, we realize the apartment is on the best side of Old Town - away from the noise and traffic and people arriving at the Pile Gate from the cruise ships. There was a Konzum market just down the street where we bought our food and drink. There is also a small bakery three minutes down the street where we bought fresh pastries and bread. We definitely would recommend this apartment.

We stayed at this apartment for the better part of a week and were very happy with our choice. The location is perfect (just a 5 minute walk to old town), and far enough away from all the tourist action to make it far more relaxing. The beach is really close (a two minute walk) and excellent. The apartment was well furnished and the building has a great old feel to it with high ceilings and stone staircases. The big outdoor patio was nice for sunset cocktails and snacks as well.

My friends and I (mid-twenties) stayed here for a week in September. The location is perfect - right next to the public beach, a close walk to the Old Town, and with amazing views of the water. It was so fun to be able to see the apartment from the city walls, and from the water on our kayaking excursion to Lokrum island. The AC works great, washer-dryer is really handy to have for a longer trip. The table and chairs on the patio were where we spent many of our evenings, drinking wine and enjoying the sunset and the amazing weather. Highly recommend a stay - it's a great place to come home to after a day of walking around the town and lounging at the beach. Directions to the apartment were easy to follow and restaurant reccomendations were also quite good!

We had a great time at the apartment. The location is perfect... a short walk to the old town and to several great beaches. The apartment is very clean and comfortable.

We have been staying in this apartment for 2 weeks and have no regrets that we booked it. Due to our lengthy stay, we were able to explore this beautiful city and concluded, there is no better place to rent in Dubrovnik. (Please do not make a mistake and book in an Old Town or something like ... only 250 steps... from ...) This location is unbeatable – their best hotel Excelsior is one street level down, 5minutes walk to their best public beach, 8-10 minutes walk to the old town. A view from windows or terrace is breath taking- in fact it was the best place in town to watch the firework on the 10th of July, which is an independence day for Croatia. It is funny, but true that adjacent house was selected to host the European presidents for celebration of an Independence Day. Through windows, you will see a beautiful Adriatic Sea, an island of Lokrum, various elegant cruise line ships and privately own yachts. The Royal Clipper mega yacht was there every week. Inside of apartment: lot’s of space, tastefully decorated, all appliances were working, TV with numerous channels, fast speed internet, clean and crisp linens and really comfortable beds. The owners of this place are trustworthy. If we were to rent in Dubrovnik again, we would pick the same place at the heart beat! Due to nature of my work, I travel constantly and have been staying in a numerous upscale and sometimes luxury hotels, worldwide – and this place was BETTER for me as I hope it will be for you and your family!

Everytning was better than advertised. My family and I had a great vacation in Dubrovnik. Location is unbeatable for exploring the city and beaches. We hope to return there next year.

This apartment was fabulous! The location was absolutely perfect and exactly what we were looking for. From our front window we had incredible views of the Adriatic Sea and of the old town. We were only 2 minutes from the beach and about 5 minutes to the Old town. The apartment was clean and comfortable and fully equipped with everything you could need. I would definitely stay here again!
