Villa Kate could not have been more perfect for our group of 11. It is a beautiful villa, perched high on the mountain overlooking the Dubrovnik coastline. Very comfortable bedrooms, and ample living spaces (including 4 kitchens) gave us all the opportunity to spend time together, or have quiet time apart. Everything was well stocked and we needed for nothing.
The villa is about a 15-20 minute drive to old Dubrovnik. When booking, I had concerns about this, but it turned out to be perfect. It was an easy uber ride to anything we needed (many places in walking distance). But the best part was the incredible views the location afforded. Just spectacular! Lounging by the pool, looking out at the ocean and spectacular landscape, was incredible. The pool area had very comfortable furniture, umbrellas, bathroom, and a fridge to stock your drinks in, so you could easily settle in for a while.
Ivana was an incredible host. She greeted us on arrival and gave us a tour of the house. She provided us with her number, and was accessible for ordering transport, tours and food delivery. Anything we needed to know, she was there to help, which was very useful as we were not familiar with Dubrovnik.
If I was to make one complaint (and it's a very minor one) - as it got very windy at night we had to keep our doors and windows shut (a lot of door slamming going on otherwise), so a few fans to circulate the air would be nice. But this is really minor - when you are in paradise, it's easy to overlook this.
Our vacation was a very special gathering of family and friends, and Villa Kate was the perfect place for us to further build our memories together. Thank you Ivana!!!
