Brand new Apartment S & U

First Impressions

Walking up to Brand new Apartment S & U, you immediately get that “oh, this is going to be good” feeling. The four-star property lives up to its name — everything feels crisp and modern, like you’re the first person to ever use the keycard. It’s tucked away on Oraska ulica in a way that feels residential rather than touristy, which honestly makes all the difference when you’re trying to get a real feel for Dubrovnik beyond the cruise ship crowds.

Location & Getting Around

Here’s what I love about this spot — you’re close enough to the Old Town that you can walk there without breaking a sweat, but far enough away that you actually get to sleep at night. The location scored an impressive 8.9 from recent guests, and I can see why. You know what’s really nice? There’s free private parking right on site, which is basically gold in Dubrovnik where most places either don’t have parking or charge you through the nose for it. I mean, try finding a decent parking spot near the city walls and you’ll appreciate this perk real quick.

The Apartment Experience

The apartment itself feels like someone’s stylish home rather than a sterile hotel room — which makes sense given the setup. Everything’s been thoughtfully designed with clean lines and modern fixtures, but it doesn’t feel cold or impersonal. The space is well-laid-out with enough room to actually unpack your suitcase and settle in for a few days. What struck me most was the attention to detail — from the kitchen setup (if you get a unit with one) to the way natural light fills the rooms during the day.

Perfect for Couples

There’s something about Brand new Apartment S & U that just works for romantic getaways. Maybe it’s the intimate scale of the place, or the fact that you feel like you have your own little corner of Dubrovnik rather than being in a massive hotel complex. Couples have been rating this place particularly highly, and after staying here, I totally get it. The neighborhood has this lovely residential vibe where you can grab coffee at a local café in the morning and feel like you’re living like a local, even if it’s just for a few days.

Why Guests Love It

With an 8.4 overall rating, this place clearly hits the mark for most visitors. What sets it apart isn’t flashy amenities or over-the-top service — it’s the combination of being genuinely new and well-maintained, having that coveted parking situation sorted, and offering a more authentic Croatian experience. You’re not paying Old Town prices, but you’re still close enough to walk to Stradun when you want to dive into the tourist scene. It’s that sweet spot where you get modern comfort without sacrificing the local character that makes Dubrovnik special in the first place.
