The Summer Cottage was a lovely place to stay when visiting Dubrovnik. It was about 25min away from Dubrovnik in the town of Trsteno and was a welcomed reprieve from the business of Dubrovnik. Andrija and his family were very welcoming hosts and went above and beyond. Thank you for letting us stay at your place.

We enjoyed our stay here and very much appreciated the abundance of available food supplies (oil, herbs, cookies, coffee, tea, and many more). The kitchen was well equipped, the TV had many english-language channels, the terrace was lovely and the beds very comfortable. We also appreciated the hosts arranging and allowing an earlier check-in.

Lovely Summer Cottage in a beautiful location with stunning views. Super comfortable and clean with everything you could possibly need for a great stay. Please be aware it is located on a hill with a steep climb. We did get used to it but not suitable for a wheelchair.

Summer cottage

The overall neatness and attractive quality of the cottage was better than the pictures. Good attention to construction and details making it a very nice place. The drive up the narrow steep driveway was a little harrowing, but that’s Croatia for you. Be careful with the top step of the staircase, could be a fall risk.

Great view from a traditional house

The house is part of a traditional ensemble of 3 houses, 2 of which are occupied by the owners. The view is outstanding, especially with moonlight behind the cedar trees! The path towards the parking spot is extremely steep and narrow (between two walls). We didn'd dare driving up with a Ford S-Max. Besides this, everything was perfect. Small supermarket within 5min walking distance. Very convenient. Waste separation was a bit difficult as every country does it differently and a clear description of what to do in Croatioa would help.

Misleading advert and inconsiderate owner

The cottage itself was nicely renovated and well-equipped, with large comfortable beds, air conditioning etc. Not recommended for anyone even slightly infirm as there is no landing at the top of the steep stairs and the bathroom is downstairs. The parking too is not for the faint-hearted, very tight and uneven! Our biggest problem was the fact that the advert and photos gave the impression that the cottage is stand alone in a quiet location - it is anything but. It is actually joined to the owner's property and the outdoor patio area is only a few feet from his front door. That would not have been a problem, but for the fact that he spent 5 of the 7 days we stayed using loud power tools, morning, afternoon and evening, to renovate a boat on adjoining land. He was often accompanied by friends, who joined in the drinking and hammering.This rendered the outdoor space virtually unusable for dining and relaxing for most of the week. The fact that he had electric cables strewn all over the cottage steps and the cellar kitchen area, supposed to be included in the rental, also made for a health and safety nightmare. For at least 3 of the days his builders, working on a new project behind the cottage, started at 7am with more power tools and hammering. After we complained to the managing agents about the noise, he carried on with the work, even making what looked like a derisory joke about us to his friend. He showed a shameful and wanton disregard for his paying guests!

Thank you for sharing your feedback regarding your recent stay at our cottage. We appreciate your compliments on the nicely renovated and well-equipped interior, including the comfortable beds and air conditioning. We apologize for any inconvenience you experienced due to the layout of the cottage, particularly the steep stairs and the bathroom being located downstairs. We understand that this may not be suitable for guests with mobility challenges, and we apologize if this was not made clear in the advertisement. Regarding the issue of the cottage being joined to the owner's property, we apologize if this was not accurately portrayed in the photos and description. We strive to provide transparent and accurate information to our guests. The proximity of the owner's property and the outdoor patio area being close to his front door should have been clearly communicated, and we apologize for any confusion or disappointment this may have caused. We are deeply sorry to hear about the disturbance you experienced during your stay. We understand that the noise from the owner's renovation work, as well as his friends' activities, significantly impacted your ability to enjoy the outdoor space and disrupted your overall experience. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and the lack of consideration shown by the owner. We will address this issue with the owner and take appropriate action to ensure that such situations do not recur. Regarding the electric cables and the potential safety hazards they posed, we apologize for the oversight and any concerns this caused. We will review our procedures and ensure that all areas of the property are safe and in compliance with health and safety standards. We truly appreciate your feedback, as it helps us identify areas for improvement. We apologize for falling short of your expectations and for any negative impact this had on your stay. We will take your comments into consideration to make necessary changes and provide a better experience for future guests. Once again, we apologize for the inconveniences you faced and thank you for bringing them to our attention. We hope you will give us another opportunity to provide you with a more enjoyable stay in the future.

Magnifique intérieur, bâtisse superbe, des imprécisions dans l'annonce.

Intérieur superbement rénové, très propre, beau matériaux. Bâtisse ancienne et authentique avec beaucoup de style. J'aimerai toutefois apporter quelques précisions par rapport à l'annonce: l’extérieur est plutôt restreint: seul le patio est à la disposition des hôtes, par exemple sur certaines photos, on voit un balcon face à la mer avec des colonnades, mais qui n'est pas inclus dans la location; une canisse, absente sur les photos, ferme complètement l’ouverture du patio à gauche de la vieille porte bleue; l'accès en voiture est très étroit entre 2 murets de pierre et extrêmement pentu (15 ou 20%), nous avons préféré laisser la voiture de location 50m en contrebas (à la première tentative j'ai failli y laisser l'embrayage de la voiture de location, je n'ai pas insisté, je ne suis peut-être pas doué). En résumé nous avons bien sûr grandement apprécié de nous y retrouver le soir après nos sorties (Dubrovnik est à 20mn en voiture) ou pour prendre le petit déjeuner dans un décor traditionnel.

Schöne Fewo vor den Toren von Dubrovnik

Hübsche und sehr saubere Ferienwohnung, etwa 25 Minuten mit dem Pkw bis Dubrovnik. Ausreichende Ausstattung für vier Personen. Landstraße ist weit genug weg, stört kaum. Hübscher Essplatz im Freien. Zufahrt ist eng und recht steil, aber machbar. Im Zweifel kann Auto auch ein paar Meter unterhalb geparkt werden. Etwas lästig waren lediglich die Ameisen. In der Küche bessere nichts offen liegen lassen.
