Dubrovnik, Croatia
First Impressions When I first walked into San Salvatore Luxury Penthouse, I honestly wasn't prepared for just how stunning the views would be.
When I first walked into San Salvatore Luxury Penthouse, I honestly wasn’t prepared for just how stunning the views would be. This four-star property sits perfectly positioned in Dubrovnik’s quieter residential area, and you know what? That turned out to be exactly what I needed after dealing with the crowds down in the Old Town. The penthouse feels more like staying in someone’s incredibly well-appointed private apartment than a typical hotel — which makes sense given the intimate scale and personal touches throughout.
The room itself is spacious and thoughtfully designed, with floor-to-ceiling windows that frame the Adriatic perfectly. I mean, I’ve stayed in plenty of places with “sea views,” but this actually delivers on that promise in a big way. The modern furnishings don’t try too hard — everything feels comfortable rather than showy. What really impressed me was the attention to detail, like the quality linens and the way the space flows naturally from the sleeping area to the living space.
Here’s the thing about the location on Bosanka street — it’s about a 15-minute walk to Pile Gate, which honestly is perfect. You’re close enough to easily reach the Old Town, but far enough away that you’re not dealing with the tourist chaos right outside your door. I noticed plenty of couples during my stay, and it makes total sense why this place gets such high marks for romantic getaways. The neighborhood feels authentically Croatian, with local cafes and small shops that you’d never find in the more touristy areas.
One thing that really stood out was the free private parking — and trust me, if you’ve ever tried to park in Dubrovnik’s Old Town, you’ll understand why this is such a game-changer. The hosts clearly know what travelers actually need, not just what looks good in photos. The kitchenette is well-equipped too, which came in handy for preparing simple meals with ingredients from the local market. Actually, having that option to eat in sometimes made the whole experience feel more relaxed and less rushed.
The 10-rating from guests isn’t just about the obvious stuff like the views and location (though both are genuinely excellent). It’s the combination of feeling like you have your own private retreat while still being connected to everything Dubrovnik offers. The recent guests’ 8.7 rating for location tells the real story — this isn’t just a place to sleep, it’s positioned to let you experience the city like someone who actually lives here. Whether you’re watching the sunset from the terrace or planning your day over coffee with that incredible backdrop, San Salvatore manages to feel both special and completely comfortable at the same time.
Hotels near me in Dubrovnik keep travelers steps from Stradun boutiques, cliffside bars, and ferry terminals to hidden coves.

The location was great, with an amazing view! Everything we needed was available at the penthouse, including laundry and dishwasher tablets.
What could be improved: The only issue we had was that the WiFi wasn't working in the bedrooms.
Przestronność i czystość apartamentu, położenie blisko panoramy na Dubrownik i dobry kontakt z właścicielem. Przyjemna okolica i urokliwe zejscie do starego miasta.
Very nice apartment and an amazing location.
RE WE LA CJA! Bywaliśmy już w wielu obiektach - ale ten skradł nasze serca :D . Doskonała lokalizacja, piękna wieś na szczycie góry, Dubrovnik osiągalny spacerem. Rzut kamieniem do przepięknych punktów widokowych na całe miasto. Obiekt czysty, doskonale wyposażony, praktycznie nie zabrakło nam niczego. Było nawet więcej - gościnność gospodarzy, którzy przygotowali dla nas poczęstunek po podróży - WOW. Zachód Europy powinien się uczyć! Do tego doskonały kontakt, nie może być lepiej!
Amazing penthouse, spotlessly clean, mattress, pillows, bedding and towels of the highest hotel quality. Even small toiletries provided. Kitchen was well equipped for cooking. Allocated parking right outside apartment. Large and spacious apartment in peaceful location. The host was very kind and responsive. She even provided some basic food and drinks in the fridge for our arrival. This is a hidden gem, within walking distance, you can see the sunset and amazing views over the top of the old town, also the traditional Croatian restaurant is within a 2 minute walk. Getting to old town was cheap via Uber (about 10 Euro for 7 seater taxi, cheaper if smaller car).
Fabulous apartment. Large and roomy. Plenty of space.
Our hosts could not have been more welcoming. They even had a video to show us how to reach the apartment!
What could be improved: Nothing.
Great apartment, everything was clean and tidy
The owners are very friendly people, we had great pleasure staying there
From the beggining we had great communication with Rosie. She made sure everything went 100% smoothly from the first moment we arrived to Dubrovnik. The apartment is beutiful and exceptionally clean. We where greeted with wine and groceries in the refrigerator. Very comfortable bed, great air conditioner for the weather. We could not have asked for more. Short uber ride to Old Town. Great restaurant nearby. Rosie and her husband where very helpful from start to finish and will remember this as our best stay during the whole trip. Thank you so much! Will love to come back!
Everything was very good, cleanest was in hight level, property was new, also furniture, great location
The hosts of the property are very lovely people and so-so helpful! They exceeded all our expectations from giving us a ride to a bigger supermarket to stock for a week to bus schedule and fresh eggs from their chicken farm :)
The apartment itself is big and clean and has everything you need for a comfortable stay.
The location is close to the old town but also close to so many nice beaches just 10-30 min drive away.
The property is also very close to one of the most spectacular views on Dubrovnik - mnt Srd.
A bonus to the property is a great local restaurant just few hundred meters from the property.
What could be improved: The property is close to Dubrovnik old town, but you must take into account that the few kilometers between the old town and the property is severe uphill. So climing down to the city and beaches is easy, but going up I suggest to take a taxi (both Uber and Bolt are available). in the area).
