Bayview Suite Dubrovnik

Hotel Description

Look, I’ve stayed in my fair share of Dubrovnik hotels, and honestly? Most of them are either tourist traps in the Old Town or soulless chain places that could be anywhere. But Bayview Suite Dubrovnik – well, it’s actually got something going for it. The location on Ulica uz Jadransku cestu is perfect if you know the area. You’re about a 15-minute walk from Pile Gate (the main entrance to the Old Town), but here’s the thing – you’re far enough away that you don’t hear the cruise ship crowds stumbling back to their hotels at 2 AM. I mean, during peak season in July and August, that’s worth its weight in gold.

The suites themselves are… I don’t want to oversell it, but they’re genuinely spacious. Not just “hotel spacious” where they call a closet a suite – these actually have separate living areas that you can spread out in. The kitchenette is more functional than most, too. I actually used it, which says something because hotel kitchens are usually just for show. The view situation is interesting – some rooms face the Adriatic directly, others get glimpses through the pine trees. Either way, you’re waking up to that Mediterranean light bouncing off the water, which honestly makes even terrible hotel coffee taste better. Speaking of which, their breakfast setup is solid – nothing fancy, but fresh local stuff and strong coffee. They do this honey from somewhere nearby that’s ridiculously good.

What really sets this place apart though is how the staff actually knows Dubrovnik. Not just the tourist stuff, but real recommendations. The woman at reception (I think her name was Marija?) steered me toward this tiny konoba in Lapad that I never would’ve found otherwise. She also gave me the real scoop on when to visit the city walls – apparently if you go right at 8 AM when they open, you’ll have them mostly to yourself for about an hour before the tour groups arrive. That’s insider knowledge right there. The whole property has this calm, residential feel that’s rare in Dubrovnik. You know what I mean? It’s not trying to be flashy or over-the-top Croatian – it just works. Parking is included, which might not sound exciting but trust me, after circling the Old Town for 40 minutes looking for a spot, you’ll appreciate having your own space. The 9.8 rating makes sense once you’re there – it’s not perfect, but it gets the important stuff right and doesn’t pretend to be something it’s not.

Reviews

• The penthouse featuring a jacuzzi – Igor from Croatia – 30 April 2025 (10/10)

  The location is amazing, with a beautiful promenade just below the suite. The nearest beach is only 100 meters away, although the sea was still quite cold in April. Supermarkets are located on the north side of the building, along with a restaurant called Megi, which offers some of the best value-for-money dining in Dubrovnik. Our suite was at the top of the building, providing us with an excellent view of the bay. The jacuzzi was definitely a bonus, especially since we visited in April when the temperatures were not very high; it easily reached 40 degrees.
  
  The suite is spacious and comfortably accommodates six people. The most attractive feature is the extremely large balcony, which offers a fantastic view of the bay. Parking in Dubrovnik is nearly impossible and very expensive, so we chose to use Uber, which costs less than 8 euros to reach the Old Town from our location. The drive lasts approximately 10 minutes.
  
  Having access to a free and secure garage was definitely a bonus, as we only used the car to visit the stunning places around Dubrovnik.

• The view – Igor from Croatia – 27 April 2025 (10/10)

  The penthouses is brand new, stylish, and elegant. The view from the jacuzzi and large balcony is magnificent. A beautiful promenade lies just 100 meters below the apartment, stretching for several kilometers all the way to Dubrovnik marina. Along the way, you will pass by the beach bar Vapor and a few restaurants.
  
  There are three supermarkets located behind the building, along with the restaurant Megi, which enhances the appeal of this location. Megi also serves breakfast for €8 per person and offers excellent pizza.
  
  Additionally, the building features a free garage and an elevator, which are extra benefits. Although it’s a couple of kilometers from the Old Town, you can reach it in ten minutes by Uber for just €7, without worrying about parking.
  
  What could be improved: Everything was excellent and definitely coming back

• Fenomenalan smjestaj. Preporucujemo. – Marina from Bosnia and Herzegovina – 21 May 2025 (10/10)

  Izvanredan apartman koji je u potpunosti nadmašio naša očekivanja. Dnevni boravak i kuhinja osmišljeni su s pažnjom prema detaljima, prožeti prirodnim svjetlom zahvaljujući velikim staklenim površinama koje otvaraju prostor prema impresivnoj terasi. Terasa sama po sebi oduzima dah – prostrana, s predivnim panoramskim pogledom i jacuzzijem koji pruža savršen trenutak opuštanja. Apartman je potpuno nov, besprijekorno čist i izuzetno udoban. Smješten u mirnom okruženju, a istovremeno na svega nekoliko minuta od trgovina i restorana, nudi savršen spoj privatnosti i praktičnosti. Garaža i moderan interijer dodatno upotpunjuju dojam. Izvrsno iskustvo – topla preporuka! Hvala domaćici Andrei na gostoprimstvu.
