Reviews of Big Blue Apartments
Shayne from Canada – 18 May 2025 (10/10)
First Big Blue arra ged to have us picked up at the airport. Second hostes Ariana .met is at the appartment and explained how everything worked and how to travel to find things we needed. What a great place to stay for our 5 days in Dunrovnik.Just excellent!
What could be improved: Nothing. Close.to.stores and restaurants. It was a 10 minute bus ride to old town and that was part of our experience. Would not hesitate to visit again.
Clean and everything we needed to prepare our .ealsJohn from United Kingdom – 6 May 2025 (9/10)
Excellent host! Excellent location within 20 minute walk from the old town. Clean and comfortable apartment.
What could be improved: Nothing! Everything was fantastic!Roger from United Kingdom – 3 May 2025 (9/10)
The apartment was very comfortable and Ariana was really helpful with information about how to get around and other places to go locally. We had the rear ground floor apartment with a little garden and narrow view of the sea, which was fine as we were there for 3 nights, and spent most of our time out and about. It was nice to sit outside to eat or drink. The kitchen was well supplied with equipment. It was a lovely walk down into Dubrovnik and the bus back up the hill made the return easy after a busy day. Ariana arranged a taxi to the airport for us which was excellent.
What could be improved: We dropped off our luggage before returning our hire car and it was a bit hard to find the place, but Ariana was very helpful to guide us.Asit from United States – 30 April 2025 (10/10)
Cleanliness, view and staff
