Family Villa With Private Pool and Spectacular Sea View In Cavtat - Carol Royal 2

There is a food market 3 minutes walk and across the busy road that was handy. Restaurants and the village of Cavtat are a 15 min walk down hill. There are at least a doz. which serve generally the same type of fare. Italian/Fish/Mediterranean There Is a beach where you can rent chairs and umbrellas, huge bouncy castle in the water for kids and water sport activities. The hill was so steep we took a cab back home because it was so steep. The pool was lovely in this heat and it had a great view of Dubrovnik and sunset.

A fantastic property in a beautiful location with all the modenr facilities you would expect. The hosts were very friendly and looked after us very well. It would have been 5 across the board, the only slight downside was the walk back up the hill (we resorted to a taxi on 3 nights to give the legs a rest - 70 Kuna). The website should also make it clear that the pool is shared by all residents in the complex, not just the 2 villas the family run/own. Having said this, we had the pool to ourselves most days.

The villa is also only 5 minutes from the airport, but you don't hear the aircraft at night.

All in all we thoroughly enjoyed the stay, Cavtat is lovely and it is a short trip to Dubrovnik which is very picturesque.

Firstly I would like to mention how efficient the Bendis family were with the transfers to and from the airport. The apartment was very spacious, spotlessly clean and well equipped. The balcony had enough room for a patio set, where we were able to sit and enjoy the beautiful sunsets over Cavtat Bay. We also had a lovely shaded patio area at the front of the apartment. The pool area was always very clean and there were plenty of sunbeds. There is a very handy supermarket very close to the apartments where you are able to pick-up essentials.

As previously mentioned it is quite a walk to Cavtat town, we were offered lifts by the Bendis family, but we chose to walk off the lovely meals we had in the many restaurants in town. We also ate in the apartment restaurant and I have to mention the chef, who prepared fabulous food and was always attentive,courteous and the food was such good value.

The Bendis family are very accommodating as Carol's brother kindly took us to Dubrovnik because we had an early morning booking-kayaking which we thoroughly enjoyed.

Croatia is a beautiful country (third time we have visited), Cavtat is a very quaint town, we had a fabulous holiday made even more special by our hosts the Bendis family. We will definitely return.

My husband, daughter and myself stayed last summer. The apartment, pool and owners couldn't be faulted. The views are spectacular, the owners will take you to and from the town centre to save walking back uphill. Buses to Dubrovnik leave and return to the road end regularly. A large supermarket is less than 5 minutes walk away. We ate in the restaurant once towards the end of the holiday - wish we'd tried it sooner as the food was lovely. No menu as such, just fresh fish and steaks, and a choice of accompanying sauces. I would recommend this - especially for those looking for somewhere picturesque and not too developed.
