I've stayed at many VRBO properties -- and have been lucky enough to have good experiences with all -- but this one was special. Yes, the property was clean and had what we needed to be comfortable, but what made this one distinct (in a great way) was the hosts. We never did meet Zarko (that was fault of our schedules) but Olga! Olga! Wow. Amazing...her willingness to go out of her way to help us, give us information, provide breakfast after our late arrival, pick up an early arrival in our party and drive him to the house, while showing him the grocery stores, etc., on the way -- she was incredible, truly above and beyond what I ever expected, and she wrapped our whole Dubrovnik experience in a warm glow of hospitality. Thank you, Olga!
On the purely logistical side, we had a car and so had easy access to Dubrovnik and other locations. Parking was right in front. (Can't comment on public transportation.) There are many steps down to the beach from the house -- we weren't bothered by them (ok, sometimes when it was hot, I did complain) but some might be. Speaking of hot -- it WAS hot when we visited but the pool on the property is a lovely, cool respite, and the second floor where bedrooms are located has A/C.
Thank you again, Olga (and Zarko!).
