It could do with either a full-length mirror or even a decent sized one somewhere in the apartment. There was one above the sink in the bathroom but could only use it for brushing hair / removing makeup etc.

Great view from the balcony and the bed was super comfortable.

Nothing, we really cant fault anything.

The hosts were very polite and accommodating. Communication was very easy through messaging in Booking.com. We hired two apartments and the one we had on the first floor was the best of the two as we had a balcony that looked over the bay and we had a separate lounge/bedroom. Our teenage boys shared an apartment next to the pool which was perfect for their needs. All rooms had aircon and a safe. Although small the pool serves its purpose very well and cools you down at the end of hot day. The pool, pool area, outside seating and all the off the outside grounds are kept very well. The location is perfect for walking 10mins down the road to the shops and restaurants or you can walk the 180 steps down to the beach and beach path. coming back at night walked along the main street of restaurants and then along the road up the gradual hill. Bus route into Dubrovnik is a 10min walk down the road and the No6 bus runs until almost midnight. This was the perfect stay and we would certainly stay here again 10/10

Good location

The management of the villa were not the best. On the first night of the stay I received a message requesting payment for the stay.. €50 more than the price of the stay when I had already paid in full! This confusion did taint the experience as it was stressful. The lady who took care of the apartment was lovely at the beginning of the stay but was not very friendly at the end, merely wanted us gone!

The location was great, short walk into Lapad. This walk involves many steps so anyone older or with mobility issues would need a taxi! The pool was lovely and the view from the room was breathtaking! Large living area and balcony. Kitchen area is very well equipped with everything you could need.

The pool wasn't in use - this was not declared when we booked the property. When we asked she told us that the weather was too bad to fill the pool (it was sunny and dry the whole time??)

Easy to collect the keys, had to pay an extra 10 euro as we arrive at 10pm

Stayed in May 2025

Shower cubicle slightly on the small side, maybe 2 more pillows too.

Brilliant stay at Villa Katrina! The location is fantastic and the views are incredible. Around a 50 minute stroll to the Old Town (about €6-7 in an uber) and about €28 in an uber from the airport. Apartment itself was great, all the amenities you would need and a supermarket a 5 minute walk away for any essentials. Bed was comfy, my only marginal complaint was that the shower cubicle is really small, but again that’s just a personal gripe. Would hands down recommend to anyone to stay there, purely for the views across Lapad Beach. Thank you!

2 negatives that detracted a little. Firstly we arrived on Saturday and the pool was empty. It was not useabe after cleaning and filling, until Wednesday. Building work in the adjacent building started before 0730, hammer drilling isn't the nicest alarm clock.

Easy arrivals process and the property arranged the airport pickup. Very clean and bright apartment with a well equipped kitchen. The view from the balcony over Lapad was very pretty. As a late checkout was not possible, the property looked after our luggage until we left for the airport at 2pm.

A little far to walk to Old Town but the bus service was handy.

Fantastic view, especially from the upper level rooms - amazing in the morning!

The apartment had amazing views over Lapad beach, which is one of the main reasons we chose it when looking at places to stay in Dubrovnik, close to the old town, but did not want to pay the level of expense of hotels in the surrounding area. The apartment was really clean, had the basics needed for the kitchen to cover breakfast or cooking pasta, the shower was powerful (a big plus), the bed was nice and comfy, with TV and Wifi . In terms of wider contact, the Host was always quick to respond in terms of messages and sent us a link about the Villa and the area before our arrival. We had messaged the Host about the check-in time due to our flight being later than planned in the evening, but the Host was able to accommodate us by having a person meet/greet us there to hand over the keys. (We provided a small tip as a thank you). Location-wise wise the apartment to get to the promenade was a short walk (down via 188 steps - given the location to be expected) or you could take a short, much flatter walk taking a slightly longer 5/walk to the end of the road and back round. The promenade takes you all around Lapad beach, and there are lots of restaurants and shops for a range of tastes, with plenty of places to sit as well and watch the world go by. The beach is cobbled, but plenty of space to sit out and go for a swim to cool down. The bus stop to the Old Town is 250m from the apartment at the end of the road, you can get tickets from the kiosk or purchase a Dubronvik pass online before you come (it only activates when you first use it). The number 6 runs every 15 minutes from 6 am to midnight so it was never long to wait. The ride was a short 10 minutes ride, it would be walkable in about 45-60 minutes for those wanting to stretch their legs.

It was a bit far away from Dubrovnik old town but easily reachable by bus if you do not fancy the walk.

The lovely view over the sea was gorgeous at sunset. Apartment was very spacious and more than big enough. Apartment had everything I needed and easy to check in and out

Lots of steps!

The TV had little in terms of English channels, but to be expected, and not really needed on holiday but maybe on rainy days. WiFi was sometimes a little patchy. We would have liked an extra few pillows on the bed for our preference but used the throw cushions from the sofa. A word of caution if booking the superior apartments at the top of the building, there are 2 flights of steep steps to consider if you are able to climb them/carry your bags.

We loved the beautiful balcony and its view over the bay. It really never got old to wake up to the view of Lapad bay every day, watching the water, seeing the islands and the trees of the National park opposite. The hob and cooking facilities came in really helpful when we needed to cook (due to the high costs of the restaurants). The bathroom was small but very functional and nice shower. The plunge pool was so nice to use during the high heat. Most of all the lovely team that changed our towels every 2 days and a wonderful cleaning service halfway through stay. The girls were so kind and friendly and a pleasure to see around, they’d always help with any questions and helped arrange our taxi back to the airport. If not getting a bus, I’d thoroughly recommend asking the property to help with taxis, as airport taxis cost double! The welcome pack before staying was also very helpful, and our host kindly helped out when we had noisy neighbours. A beautiful stay at Villa Katarina, in a luxury area for a very cost effective price. We felt incredibly lucky to be enjoying the same views and sunsets as those in the premium hotels below. We were able to walk down to the famous cave bar for a sundown drink right on the water. We adored Lapad’s scenery and the bay, with local supermarkets and restaurants in walking distance. Unfortunately we were surprised at the very high cost of dining, perhaps to be expected in a tourist area but we were not prepared for this. Dishes such as bolognese or past cost up to €27-30 so be prepared for this in your budget. We found an excellent fast food restaurant (Tuttobene) with many healthy options that was cheaper which we could bring back to the balcony. Several supermarkets are nearby which helped us with breakfast/lunch options.

PROPER SUN LOUNGERS POSSIBLY MORE COMFY CHAIRS ON THE BALCONY

THE VIEW WAS STUNNING FROM THE APARTMENT. WE DIDNT USE THE POOL ALTHOUGH IT WAS VERY SMALL LOACATION WAS GOOD ALTHOUGH THE FASTESR WAY DOWN TO THE MAIN STRIP WAS VIA 190 STEPS SO NOT SUITABLE FOR UNFIT OR PEOPLE WITH WALKING DIFFICULTIES. FACILITIES WERE VERY GOOD ALTHOUGH AN OVEN WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE PLUS PROPER SUN LOUNGERS
