Villa Boro

View, pool, staff, room, cleaningness, parking spot, bus proximity (5min) and frequency to easily reach the old town entrance (10-15min) (line 6 of Dubrovnik buses with destination Pile)

some stairs from the bus stop to the location (but is still feasible to climb them and it is not more than 3-5min, we are in our late 30s with no gym or excursion hobbies, and it was totally ok)

The pool area was the nicest part, balcony in room And bed was comfy.

I don’t even know where to start with this review, just simply is a case of you get what you pay for. Dubrovnik is an expensive place and if you think you will save money staying here, just don’t. On the second day I was pricing other hotels to stay, but unfortunately all were too expensive. This was honestly one of the worst stays I’ve ever experienced, mainly down to the rude owner/host of the so called 4 star ‘villa’. I had booked this accommodation for 6 days for a holiday and my boyfriend’s birthday; and with the photos online, we expected good things. To start, we arrived late and the key was left in the door of the room with instructions, that was fine but we had to go to the ‘reception’ in the morning to check in officially. All I can say about this place is, you are simply living in an old women’s home with her eyes on your every move. The ‘reception’ is actually just her kitchen, where she appears to live above most of the rooms and has eyes on everything. I did not realise this was going to be the case where the owner was basically on top of you the entire time, if I knew this I would not have booked this as I felt like our every move was being watched. The room was OK at best. Had a balcony with a nice view and the bed was comfortable. Aircon was good also, but that was about it. The room had a TINY bathroom with a shower door that was broken, and the room was only cleaned every few days, leaving us with the need for extra towels and toilet paper. Due to the location of the room and the layout of the rooms, the walls also must be paper thin because you can hear EVERYTHING from the other rooms, this was extremely off putting. The room was also extremely dirty when we first arrived, photos attached. Simply put, it was not a nice experience to walk into. The overall location of the apartments is OK if you are happy walking up and down about 500 steps to get anywhere. We Ubered everywhere which got very expensive as there was no other option.

Gorgeous views from our balcony, room was very clean. Clean towels regularly. Host was very helpful.

Nothing about the accommodation not to like, it is a gorgeous villa (except for the steps up from the beach, but we were fully aware of this)!

Lovely and helpful host Short walk to beach and easy bus route into the old town Lovely scenery Clean and smart villa complex

No real dislikes Stairs from the beach are a killer though

Modern, comfy, good aircon, nice views from balcony and liked that it had a pool

That the mugs/cutlery weren’t changed throughout our stay, was quite high up a hill but we were aware of this.

Fab view from private balcony. Lovely pool, private atmosphere
