Great place to stay central for everything.

What a perfect apartment in Cavtat to relax and enjoy some quiet time outside the hustle and bustle of Dubrovnik. Kate is a wonderful host and the apartment is extremely clean right in the center of the promenade. Note: We recommend taking the City Tour (we were in a small group with one other couple) and after the tour they gave us the City Wall tickets. Also recommend taking a kayak to the island for snorkeling.

The Good: The property is absolutely beautiful in an incredible location right on the harbor in Cavtat -- the location cannot be beat. This is the upper apartment, so the waterfront views out the windows are not quite as direct, but it's still beautiful and fun to see the yachts outside. The apartment has been recently renovated and spotlessly clean and so charming with cute decorations, exposed stone, modern kitchen and bathroom, cold and quiet air conditioning, and snacks and drinks stocked in the refrigerator. There is a wonderful, gated, multi-level landscaped terrace outside the apartment from which to enjoy the sights & sounds of Cavtat, and the restaurant downstairs will deliver food and drinks right to the gate which feels like your own private dining. The Not-So-Good: - Parking. The listing says one of the amenities includes "parking", but it does not mention that the parking is in a public lot that is a 400m walk away from the apartment, through the busy main street of Cavtat. You cannot drive to or near the apartment - the streets are car-free. We knew this was the case in places like Old Town Dubrovnik, but did not realize it was the case for Cavtat - it makes it quite inconvenient to haul baggage, etc., and would have been nice to know in advance. It also does not mention that the parking is NOT free - it is in a public parking lot at very expensive rates! - Check-In: This is not the fault of the host, but the VRBO check-in process did not work well for us. The VRBO email did not contain any special instructions for getting to the property or checking in, and when we arrived in Cavtat, we learned we could not even drive up to the apartment, and there were no instructions on how to get the keys. When we used the information in VRBO email to contact the host, instead we reached a "property manager" who said they could not even find our reservation and could not help us. It took us some time to hunt down the host’s actual contact information and contact her. From that point, she was very responsive and helpful instructing us how to reach the property, get in the gate, and find the keys. However, it would have been helpful if those instructions had been provided in advance so that we were not left scrambling and confused when we arrived in Cavtat (and thought our reservation had been lost). - The beautiful terrace is shared with the other apartment in the complex so is not as private as you may expect from the listing.

We rented this wonderful property for some friends of my daughter for her wedding weekend. We didn’t stay ourselves, or see it, but I heard they loved it! It’s in a perfect position just in the old town. Thank you to hosts for being so generous and hospitable- we hope they were good guests!!

Great location! Just perfect!

Great location! Just perfect!

This beautiful apartment is right in the middle of Cavtat overlooking the harbour . It is ideally situated for all of the restaurants and amenities. It is fantastically well appointed and super clean. Kate is the perfect hostess, arranging airport transfers and communicating everything we needed. We have visited for the last two summers and will definitely return.

When it says The Stone House in the centre of Cavtat - it is just that. Right in the centre of this beautiful harbour town. The apartment itself is beautifully renovated. Decoration was stylish and modern with no issues whatsoever. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and were reluctant to leave! The owner was most helpful and obliging and was on hand when we arrived to guide us through the amenities. We stayed in the upper apartment which afforded an excellent view as the sun set. I would highly recommend this property and if you fly into 'Dubrovnik' airport it is less than ten minutes away from this apartment. Cavtat itself is a calm oasis when compared to the hustle and bustle of Dubrovnik. We visited Dubrovnik several times during our stay using the plentiful and regular taxi boats. After the crowds and sights of Dubrovnik it was always a pleasure to 'return home' this wonderful location. We will be back!
