Apartment Dubrovnik 9099b

First Impressions

When I first pulled up to Apartment Dubrovnik 9099b, I’ll be honest — the name doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue, but don’t let that fool you. This place sits right in Ploče, which locals will tell you is one of the best spots to stay if you want to be close to everything without dealing with the Old Town crowds every single morning. The building itself has that understated Croatian charm, and you know what really caught my attention? There’s actually parking right on site, which anyone who’s driven around Dubrovnik will tell you is basically like finding gold.

Location That Actually Makes Sense

Here’s the thing about staying in Ploče — you’re literally a ten-minute walk from the city walls, but you’re not paying Old Town prices or dealing with cruise ship crowds stumbling past your window at 7 AM. I mean, the location score of 8.5 isn’t just some random number they threw out there. You can walk to Banje Beach in about five minutes, which is perfect for those early morning swims before the beach gets packed. The cable car station is also super close, so if you want those Instagram shots from Mount Srđ, you don’t need to figure out complicated bus routes.

The Space Itself

The apartment setup works really well, especially if you’re traveling as a couple — apparently that’s who loves this place most. It’s not fancy or anything, but it’s clean and functional with everything you actually need. The kitchen is small but totally usable if you want to grab some fresh fish from the morning market and cook it yourself. Actually, that’s one of my favorite things about staying here — you can live a bit like a local instead of eating every meal at tourist restaurants. The room gets good light, and honestly, the air conditioning works properly, which isn’t always a given in older Croatian buildings.

What You Need to Know

The 7.2 rating might seem modest, but I think it’s actually pretty accurate — this isn’t a five-star resort experience, and it doesn’t pretend to be. What it is, though, is solid value in an excellent neighborhood. The free parking alone probably saves you 20-30 euros a day compared to other places. Plus, there’s a decent grocery store about two blocks away, and the morning bread delivery truck stops right at the corner if you’re into that sort of authentic Croatian experience.

Why Guests Love It

Look, couples keep coming back here because it hits that sweet spot of being affordable, well-located, and private enough that you feel like you have your own little corner of Dubrovnik. You’re not sharing breakfast with fifty other tourists or waiting for elevators — you just grab your keys and go explore. The walk into the Old Town is actually really pleasant, especially in the evening when you can take the scenic route along the coast. And when you’re tired of sightseeing, you can come back to your own space, maybe pick up some wine from the local shop, and just relax without hotel lobby noise.
