Villa Katarina

Katrina was a wonderful host making site we had everything we needed

Warm and welcoming staff. Clean and comfortable. Great wifi. About 15 minute walk from the the Old Town. We liked being able to get away from the masses of people inside the walls. Very peaceful location. Villa Katarina is (like a lot of places in Dubrovnik) on a pedestrian only walkway with stairs. Close to several mini-markets that carry the essentials.

Our hostess, Katarina herself, made us feel very welcomed in her home. The individual apartment rooms were clean and satisfactory for our needs. A lovely terrace in the sun to have happy hour and Katarina graciously gifted us some local wine, beer and oranges right off her trees in the yard. Beautiful garden. We had an easy walk down to Old Town.

Very sweet and friendly host. Comfortable accommodation with nice view from the window. The only issue is that this place is listed as Villa KatErina on Google. Villa KatArina is at a different location about 5 km away. I went there first and had to pay extra for my taxi. I did inform the owner of this.

Fantastic location with a bakery close by.

Beautiful location with a clean room. Staff was very kind and helpful. Definitely recommend!

Had a great time at Villa Katarina. Easy and convenient check in and a great centrally located property.

Area felt very safe and secure, nice patio, renovated interior. Owners were very nice and welcoming! Only thing was that the shower was a bit small and water would get everywhere on the floor.

For people who take airport shuttle, I want to provide a community service here by describing how to walk the one mile distance to the apartment from the drop-off point at Ploce Gate. Because, Google map doesn’t help you how to cover vertical distances. You can take a taxi from the Ploce gate, but it is quite expensive for 20 Euro for a small distance. Besides, cars could not go into the street where the apartment is located. The street is a long stair with apartments on both sides, so whether you walk or take a taxi (Uber), be prepared to carry your bags and climb a stair that is about 150 -200 yards long. There are flat sections to stop and catch your breath though. Now, put away the Google map and follow this direction instead. After getting off the shuttle at the Ploce Gate, walk west on the left most sidewalk along the old town walls (it looks quite obvious, because no other viable sidewalks there). After about 150 yards, you will reach another entrance to the old town. Follow the people coming out of the old town, turn right, pass thru the short hallway and take the stairs to an upper level road. When you get out of the stairs, you will find yourself at the sidewalk of a road. Stay on the sidewalk and walk towards northwest for about 1 km until You get to a roundabout where 2 roads merges and splits again. Keep walking for another 50 yards and cross the street on the marked pedestrian crossing by the traffic light,then take another pedestrian crossing to right.stair it

A microwave oven would be a useful addition. Spacious apartment, very clean In general, in Dubrovnik, maybe elsewhere, 10 a.m. checkout and 15.30 checkin is too wide a gap (5 hours 1/2) is very impractical for customers - almost abusive.

Really enjoyed my stay here for a bit of a working vacation. The couple that runs Villa Katarina are lovely. The double room was clean with plenty of space, I made good use of the little fridge and kettle and dining table that had a nice view, as well as the terrace, and the aircon came in handy with the hot days! It's conveniently located to a bakery and many little corner stores, and only a 15 minute walk to Old Town. Beware that just like most of Dubrovnik there are a few steps to get up to the location.

Perfect location with a super host…

Reasonably comfortable room with a nice water view and a tiny kitchenette. It's set in a pretty garden with a large patio. If you book, double check the address on arrival as there are two Villa Katarinas in Dubrovnik. We went to the wrong one first, unfortunately. When I tried to call the owner, I was repeatedly hung up on (her children, she said). The property is a bit hard to find as it's on an alley/sidewalk quite a few steps up from the street level. The proprietor was quite pleasant once we finally found the place. It's a fairly easy downhill walk into the old town of Dubrovnik (uphill on the way back, of course). There is a mini-market and several restaurants within a couple of blocks without walking back down into the old city. I don't recommend this place if you are driving a car. Our Uber experiences in Dubrovnik were uniformly good.

We were greeted warmly and helped with our luggage. Katarina gave us a thorough explanation of our accommodations. We had a room with an ocean view, which we loved. Bathroom and small kitchenette and were great. Only sug

We had an amazing experience staying at villa Katarina in Dubrovnik! Katarina was incredibly kind, welcoming, and accommodating. From check-in to check-out, they went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The space was clean, well equipped, and perfectly located. I would absolutely recommend this villa to anyone visiting Dubrovnik. It made our trip even more special, and we’re so grateful for the warm hospitality.

Ok this is complicated. Good location, nice property and nice but noisy outdoor area with distant sea views between buildings, lovely couple who own the business. The room however was poor and we got a much smaller room than we expected. We were so disappointed with the decor. Old, secondhand, impractical, uncomfortable furnishings. It was like it was filled with leftover, unwanted furniture. You can’t sit in bed and read due to a weird cupboard/bedhead (banged my head and arms every night), the sitting chairs were uncomfortable, the mattress was lumpy, towels were super thin, too many decor/comfort issues to mention (even an oddly placed Marvin the Martian figurine). The room needs an investment to modernise it and make it more welcoming and comfortable. Perhaps a new bed, couch and coffee table with some coordinated decor. As stated, everything else was good but the actual room comfort and decor was a huge, huge disappointment. I booked it so it’s on me but I was embarrassed when I walked in with my wife. This is not expensive accommodation but in its current state, it’s not worth the price. I’ve learned from this booking that I can’t trust the traveller ratings. So many 8, 9, & 10 ratings but this is one of our most disappointing bookings ever.

Very friendly hosts. In a quiet area and around 15 minutes walk to the Old Town.

Host and hostess were helpful kind and welcoming. They repeatedly asked us if it's there was anything they could do to make our stay more pleasant. Lovely spot and lovely folks.

The property is well maintained and has a large patio to relax and enjoy the sun. There are sea views from some of the room. There is a bakery and restaurants nearby and Old Town is within walking distance.

Room was delightful—clean, bright, spacious. Great stay
