Hotel Description
Look, I’ll be honest – when I first saw “Studio Apartment Ivana” in my booking confirmation, I wasn’t expecting much. The name sounds pretty basic, right? But honestly, this little gem on Vladimira Nazora Street completely surprised me. It’s one of those places where you walk in and immediately think “okay, someone actually cared about making this nice.” The apartment is genuinely new (not that fake “recently renovated” stuff where they just slapped some paint on old furniture), and Ivana – or whoever’s behind this place – has this knack for small touches that actually matter. You know what I mean? Like, the kitchen isn’t just functional, it’s actually pleasant to use in the morning when you’re making coffee and trying to figure out your day.
The location is pretty smart too, though you might not realize it at first glance. Vladimira Nazora isn’t one of those tourist-packed streets where you’re dodging selfie sticks every five minutes, but you’re still close enough to walk to the Old Town without breaking a sweat. I mean, it’s maybe a 10-minute stroll to Pile Gate, and you pass some actually decent local spots along the way – there’s this little bakery that does proper Croatian pastries, not the tourist versions. The street itself is residential enough that you’re not dealing with restaurant noise until 2 AM, which honestly made such a difference after some of the other places I’ve stayed in Dubrovnik. Parking can be a bit of a puzzle (like everywhere in this city), but the host was really helpful about explaining the options nearby.
What really got me was how the space feels way bigger than you’d expect from a studio. I think it’s the way everything’s laid out – nothing feels cramped or like they just shoved furniture wherever it fit. The 9.1 rating makes total sense once you’re there; it’s not trying to be some luxury experience, but everything works exactly like it should. The shower has proper water pressure (you’d be surprised how often that’s not the case), the bed is actually comfortable, and the whole place just feels… clean and thoughtful, I guess? Plus, you get those little neighborhood moments – like hearing the church bells in the morning or watching the locals head to work – that remind you you’re staying somewhere real, not just in tourist bubble land. For the price point and the fact that you’re still walking distance to all the Dubrovnik highlights, it’s honestly one of those bookings where you feel like you got away with something.

Reviews
I liked it very much! – Sintija from Latvia – 2 September 2024 (10/10)
The location is the best. Very close to Bellevue Beach, a 30 min walk to Uvala Lapad beach and to Dubrovnik old city centre.
The amenities in apartment was as described, conditioning was working well.
The big bonus is private parking because warn all the toursists! Parking in Dubrovnik is mission impossible. There are only several places for car park in old town for tourists. Parking lots at the street are for residents only. If you are brave enough – after 20 mins you will get a penalty ticket.
What could be improved: Location is close to main street and it is a bit noisy in night hours!Perfectly located and well equipped ! – Kayla from France – 23 July 2024 (10/10)
The location was perfect, easily walkable to the old city and other nearby beaches.
Superb – Darian from Slovenia – 26 March 2025 (9/10)
Odlično: komunikacija sa vlasnicom aparmana, lokacija, sadržaj u aparmanu, parking u dvorištu. Sve preporuke
Lep i udoban apartman – Anonimna from Serbia – 12 November 2024 (10/10)

What could be improved: Nema terasePobyt bardzo udany. Wszędzie blisko. – Jarosław from Poland – 9 September 2024 (9/10)
Dobra lokalizacja, cisza, dobry kontakt z właścicielem.
Excelente departamento, a 25 minutos a pie del centro histórico – Gonza from Argentina – 9 August 2024 (9/10)
El departamento estaba muy limpio, tenía todo lo necesario para la estadía. Si bien se encuentra a 25 minutos caminando del casco antiguo, la vuelta se hace pesada. La mejor playa se encuentra a 10 minutos a pie.
What could be improved: Poca iluminación de noche, tenía que entrar con la linterna del celular.Très contente de notre séjour – Isabelle from France – 9 July 2024 (9/10)
L’appartement est bien situé et propre.
Il est à 20 min à pied de la vieille ville de Dubrovnik,proche de la plage et à 100 m d’un supermarché
La réactivité de la propriétaire à nos interrogations
What could be improved: L’extérieur de l’immeuble pas entretenu et l’appartement mal signaléPolecam! – Piotr from Poland – 13 June 2024 (9/10)
Bardzo dobra lokalizacja, 15 minut spacerem do Starego Miasta, 5 minut na plaże. Najbliższy supermarket w odległości 100m. Bardzo dobry kontakt z gospodarzem. Ivana jest bardzo pomocna i szybko odpowiada na każde pytanie. Apartament bardzo komfortowy i wyposażony we wszystko co potrzebne. Jak jest potrzeba to można coś wyprać czy też ugotować. Stosunek jakości do ceny 10/10
Superb – Tuija from Sweden – 9 June 2024 (9/10)
Nära till allt. En mysig lägenhet med bra utrustning.
Komfortowe mieszkanie – Xoozer from Poland – 22 May 2024 (10/10)
Ładnie urządzone czyste mieszkanie z wszystkimi udogodnieniami. Dostęp bezpośrednio z głównej ulicy (tylko kilka schodków więc nie trzeba się wspinać)
What could be improved: Przyjeżdżając w nocy, gdy jest ciemno, ciężko znaleźć numer budynku z uwagi na bujną roślinność przysłaniając budynek od drogi.
