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

First Impressions

Walking into Apartments Fortes Fortuna – Two bedroom Apartment with Terrace and Sea View, you immediately get that “this is going to be good” feeling. It’s tucked away in Ploce, which honestly is one of those neighborhoods that locals know but tourists often miss — and that’s exactly what makes it special. The four-star property has this relaxed, residential vibe that feels more like staying at a well-appointed friend’s place than a typical hotel. You know what really caught my attention right away? The fact that there’s actually free parking here, which anyone who’s driven around Dubrovnik will tell you is basically like finding treasure.

Location & Neighborhood

Ploce sits just outside the Old Town walls, which means you get the best of both worlds — easy access to all the historic sites without the constant crowds outside your door. I mean, you can walk to the city walls in about ten minutes, but when you come back in the evening, it’s peaceful and quiet. The neighborhood has this authentic Croatian feel with local cafes and small shops that haven’t been completely taken over by tourism yet. There’s a decent grocery store nearby too, which comes in handy when you’ve got a full apartment setup.

The Apartment

The two-bedroom layout works really well — it’s spacious enough that you don’t feel like you’re stepping on each other, especially if you’re traveling as a couple or with friends. But honestly, the real star here is that terrace with the sea view. You’ll find yourself having morning coffee out there, then evening wine, then probably sneaking out for a midnight look at the water. The kitchen is actually functional (not just for show like some places), and the living area feels comfortable rather than sterile. Everything’s clean and well-maintained, though don’t expect cutting-edge design — it’s more about comfort and practicality.

What Makes It Special

This place really shines for couples — there’s something about having your own terrace overlooking the Adriatic that just works for romantic getaways. The apartment gives you independence to come and go as you please, cook a meal if you want to skip the restaurant scene for a night, or just relax without hotel lobby noise. The sea view isn’t just a marketing line either — you actually get a proper vista of the water, not some sliver between buildings. And that free parking situation? It saves you probably 20-30 euros a day and a lot of headache driving around looking for spots.

Why Guests Love It

People keep coming back to this place because it strikes that perfect balance between being close to everything but not in the thick of tourist chaos. Couples especially seem to appreciate having their own space with that terrace — it becomes like your private retreat after days of exploring crowded attractions. The apartment setup means you can actually live a bit like a local, shopping at the market, cooking dinner, sitting outside with a glass of wine watching the sunset. It’s the kind of place where you start planning your return visit before you’ve even checked out.
