Apartments Fortes Fortuna – Superior Two bedroom Apartment with Terrace and Sea View

First Impressions

Walking into Apartments Fortes Fortuna – Superior Two bedroom Apartment with Terrace and Sea View, you immediately get that “this is going to be good” feeling. The apartment sits in Ploce, which honestly is one of those neighborhoods where you feel like you’ve discovered something the tour groups haven’t quite caught onto yet. It’s a four-star property, but the attention to detail feels more personal than what you’d get at a big hotel chain. The moment you step onto that terrace and see the Adriatic stretching out in front of you — well, that’s when you know you made the right choice.

Location & Neighborhood

Ploce is actually perfect if you want to be close to Dubrovnik’s Old Town without dealing with the constant crowds and cruise ship chaos. You’re maybe a 10-minute walk to the city walls, but far enough away that you can hear the waves instead of tour guides with megaphones. The neighborhood has this residential feel where you’ll see locals hanging laundry and kids playing in small squares. What really surprised me was how easy it is to find good restaurants here that aren’t tourist traps — the kind of places where the menu isn’t translated into six languages, you know?

The Apartment

The two-bedroom setup works brilliantly for couples or small families who want space to spread out. Each room feels thoughtfully designed rather than just furnished from a catalog, and there’s enough storage that you won’t be living out of your suitcase the whole time. The kitchen is actually functional — I mean, you could cook a proper meal if you wanted to, though with Dubrovnik’s food scene, why would you? The terrace is really the star though. It’s not huge, but it’s positioned perfectly to catch both morning coffee light and evening wine light, if you know what I mean.

Practical Perks

Here’s something that’ll save you both money and headaches — they offer free parking. In Dubrovnik, that’s basically like finding a unicorn. Most places either don’t have parking at all or charge you what feels like a small mortgage payment for it. The apartment also has reliable WiFi and air conditioning that actually works, which sounds basic but you’d be surprised how many places get this wrong. The hosts are responsive without being hovering, and they seem to genuinely know the area well enough to give you recommendations that aren’t just copied from TripAdvisor.

Why Guests Love It

Couples especially seem to fall for this place, and I get why. There’s something romantic about having your own terrace overlooking the sea, being able to make morning coffee together, and having a proper base to return to after long days exploring the city walls and wandering through Stradun. You’re not just staying in Dubrovnik — you’re actually living there for a few days. The combination of space, location, and that sea view creates this perfect balance where you feel connected to the city but also have your own private retreat. It’s the kind of place where you’ll find yourself planning your next visit before you’ve even checked out.
