This was our much needed and highly anticipated holiday after 2 years of Covid and having to cancel our stay 2 years ago. The host, Pepo was waiting for us at the airport to transport us on the short trip to our apartment, making a quick detour to the small supermarket to enable us to stock up on provisions. It was so kind of him to allow us to have access to the apartment earlier than the stated check in time as well. The apartment was spotless and fully airconditioned, a must in the summer in Cavtat. Unfortunately we discovered that the air-conditioning unit in the master bedroom wasn't working, however, the host was quick to respond and had it fixed for us. Luckily there was a very comfortable sofa bed to sleep on in the lounge until the issue was resolved.
There were a few issues that could easily be rectified, such as the ill equipped kitchen in terms of glasses, cereal bowls and no scissors which was a bit annoying, however, these are minor things. My main issue was that the balcony area is not private and is in fact shared with the adjoining apartment and they had to access our balcony to use the stairs. Luckily the 'neighbours' were lovely people! The patio furniture was in poor repair, held together with duct tape and the cushions had definitely seen better days! This meant that we rarely sat outside as a family because it was so uncomfortable.
The pool was fabulous and cleaned regularly; probably one of the best pools I have had on my many Croatian apartment holidays.
