Reviews

  • Ella from United Kingdom – 14 May 2025 (9/10)

    apartment is conveniently inside the old town walls, with close proximity to other activities

    What could be improved: there was a smell coming out of the shower room esp after use. it wasnt disturbing, but enough to let its presence known.

  • Iliana from Greece – 18 April 2025 (10/10)

    We had such an amazing stay in Dubrovnik. The apartment was perfect, as it is in the photos. The location was really good near to everything in the old town of the city and the view was stunning. I highly recommended! We truly loved it!!

  • Robert from Ireland – 15 April 2025 (10/10)

    Very well decorated apartment in the centre of the old town

    What could be improved: The is many steps up to got to the apartment. It could be problematic for the people with lacknof condition.

  • Peter from United Kingdom – 30 October 2024 (10/10)

    This is a truly lovely gem of a flat. Very centrally located, but far enough away from the restaurants not to be blighted by noise. It is in the old bishop’s palace with a beautiful view over the front of the cathedral. The photos don’t do it justice. It’s truly lovely.

    What could be improved: Not a criticism, but information for potential customers: This flat is not suitable for someone with mobility issues. If you can’t climb stairs easily, you won’t enjoy staying here. Otherwise, I’d recommend it to my parents, as they would love the setting, but my father wouldn’t cope with the stairs.

  • Claudia from United States – 24 October 2024 (10/10)

    I feel lucky to have come across this wonderfully modern apartment in a 700 year old dwelling in the Old Town. The location could not be better, you're living on a street tucked behind the Cathedral. There are 2 grocery stores and a bakery on the next square over, and the Marina and Buža Beach are both within a 3 minute walk to an opening in the famous Wall. There's an abundance of restaurants and cafés in the vicinity. I loved being able to stroll the cobblestone lanes late at night and in the morning. The Old Town of Dubrovnik is so striking that it deserves the nickname “Pearl of the Adriatic.”

    It's ingenious how these old palaces have been converted to our style of living. Having the beds lofted is creative and makes great use of available space, rendering a serviceable kitchen, dining area, and a very comfortable sitting area.

    Kate is a superb host, she was waiting for us at the Cathedral, ready to escort us up to our unit. The sheets and towels are top-notch, and there was plenty of hot water in the shower room. All the cooking paraphernalia needed was onsite, but what was most appreciated– because it's so rare to find in a rental — were the super sharp knives and a new skillet. Additionally, a coffee station and olive oil/vinegar were supplied. Another thoughtful gesture was finding that beach towels were provided for our use.

    If you can take on a couple of flights of stairs, don't hesitate to book. I highly recommend a stay at Saraca Palace.

  • Jan from United States – 14 October 2024 (10/10)

    Located in Old Town Dubrovnik was special. I confess the 40+ steps up was a little daunting at first, but that's the way it is. The apartment was well appointed, we didn't lack for anything. Kate was punctual, helpful in arranging a ride to the airport, and made us feel welcome. The exterior picture has a red box around the apartment windows.

    What could be improved: We knew that the old town would not be ADA compliant and the hike up the stairs was expected.

  • Chris from United Kingdom – 12 October 2024 (9/10)

    Great location in the old town . Excellent communication. Kate arranged a taxi to meet us at the airport and was waiting near the entrance to Old Town to show us to the apartment.
    Apartment was clean and had all you needed .
    Recommended.

  • Ashley from United States – 7 October 2024 (10/10)

    As perfect as you could ask for in Dubrovnik! Central within Old Town with a gorgeous view and such a charming apartment – updated while maintaining the character of the old building. Our host Kate was so helpful and kind. 11 out of 10 stars!

  • Amy from United States – 29 September 2024 (10/10)

    This apartment was beautiful. It had so much charm, comfortable and right in the heart of Old Town.

    What could be improved: Nothing! (Although this place isn't for anyone who has mobility issues)

  • David from United States – 24 September 2024 (10/10)

    Close to everything, in a city with tons of stairs I’m glad steps to apartment is minimized. Had everything we needed and host was quick to help and even scheduled a taxi for airport pickup.
