Buza Beach Apartments

Hotel Description

Look, I’ll be straight with you about Buza Beach Apartments – it’s one of those places that grows on you once you figure out what you’re getting into. The location on Pobijana street is honestly pretty brilliant if you know Dubrovnik at all. You’re tucked right into the Old Town, which means you can stumble back from dinner at Proto or Nautika without dealing with taxis or that steep walk up from Ploče. The thing is, finding the entrance the first time is… well, let’s just say Google Maps gets a bit confused in these narrow medieval streets.

The apartments themselves are solid – nothing fancy, but they’ve got that Croatian coastal vibe down with the white walls and blue accents. What I actually loved was waking up and hearing the sound of the Adriatic through the windows, especially in the early morning before the cruise ship crowds hit the city walls. The kitchenette setup is pretty practical too, which you’ll appreciate since eating out for every meal in Dubrovnik can seriously drain your wallet (I mean, €25 for pasta gets old fast). The Wi-Fi worked fine, though it did get a bit spotty during peak evening hours when everyone’s uploading their sunset photos from the city walls.

Here’s what nobody tells you though – the real magic happens when you discover you’re literally a two-minute walk from the famous Buza Bar, that cliffside spot where locals go to watch sunset with a beer. Most tourists spend forever trying to find it, but you’ll basically be neighbors. The 7.4 rating makes sense to me – it’s not luxury by any stretch, and the check-in process was a bit chaotic (Croatian time, you know?), but for the price point and location, it delivers. Just pack light because those Old Town streets weren’t designed for rolling suitcases, and honestly, you’ll be spending most of your time exploring anyway. If you’re the type who needs a pool and room service, look elsewhere. But if you want to actually live in Dubrovnik for a few days rather than just visit it, this place gets the job done.

  Great location, nice space
  
  What could be improved: I think they should have mentioned that there is construction literally right out the window. We could be in the room during the day for to the constant jack hammering, we couldn’t keep the windows open because of the same reason plus construction first. People leave the front building door open and the cats come in and pee, so it does smell like that at the building entrance, but not the room. Also the sewer gas’s coming up through the drama in the bathroom were so bad we had to keep them for closed and the fan on at all times and it was still bad. Also, please have a top sheet to the bed. Too hot to sleep with comforter but I don’t like laying there with nothing across my body.

  Great location; close to the Buza Beach access and all things considered, weren’t too many steps to access the property as compared to other locales in the Old Town
