This unique, fully self-contained, large, 1 bedroom garden apartment sleeps up to 4 people and occupies the ground floor of the owners’ (Australians) home. It is set amidst a beautiful garden with 12 ancient olive and pomegranate trees. The home is situated on a quiet pedestrian street, in the affluent Boninovo district. It has its own private entry with exclusive use of the front garden and the spacious al-fresco dining area. It is a 5 -15min walk away from almost everything in Dubrovnik: the Old Town, beaches, cafes and restaurants, museums and art galleries, bus stops, grocery stores and shopping areas, medical centres and pharmacies.
Parking is available at the covered Public Car Park some 5 min walk away or the newly built open car park which is just down the road - about a 2 minute walk away. Street parking is available but difficult to find during peak periods.
If you are arriving by plane, we can organise a professional transfer from/to the airport if you so desire. The driver will wait for you at the airport exit gates and advised us your arrival time at the meeting point where one of us will come to greet you and escort you to the apartment. Message me for details on cost. The alternatives are Uber/Bolt, taxis, airport shuttle bus.
A new, sophisticated prosecco bar with fabulous views has just opened up down the street next to the outdoor cinema Kino Slavica.

From centrally located Boninovo it is possible to walk to all parts of Dubrovnik, including the restaurant districts of the Old Town, Lapad Bay, and Gruz harbour. While the apartment is within a 5min walk to the nearest swimming spot, you will need to be fit to tackle the stairs back up from it. Within a 10min walking distance or a short bus ride away are the swimming areas of Bellevue Beach, Banja Beach, Suljic Bay, Dance Beach, Lapad Bay and Copacabana Beach. It is also a 10min leisurely walk, along an historic lane-way, to the Old Town of Dubrovnik. Supermarket, chemist and medical centre are a 5 min walk away, as is the bus stop from where you can go to other parts of the city and nearby villages. The funicular station, which takes you to the top of Mt. Srdj (where the views are spectacular and can be enjoyed over a drink or dinner at the mountain top cafe and restaurant Panorama), is a 10-12min walk away.
