Lovely clean apartment with good views over Lapad Bay. Very well equipped with the bonus of a swimming pool and ample sun terraces for all guests.
What could be improved: The apartment was great. No complaints at all. There were a lot of stairs up from the town centre which may not suit everyone.

First Impressions
Walking up to Villa Boro 3, you immediately get that feeling of discovering something special tucked away from the tourist crowds. This four-star property sits on Ulica Petra Svačića, which honestly sounds intimidating until you realize it’s just a quiet residential street that puts you right in the sweet spot of Dubrovnik. The building itself has that understated Croatian charm — not flashy, but you can tell someone actually cares about this place. I mean, when a hotel consistently scores 9.3 from guests, there’s usually a good reason behind those numbers.
Location That Actually Makes Sense
Here’s what I love about where Villa Boro 3 is positioned — you’re close enough to walk to the Old Town without being stuck in the middle of all that chaos. The locals clearly know something we don’t, because this area feels authentically Dubrovnik rather than tourist-trap Dubrovnik. Couples seem to get it too (they rate the location 8.6, which is pretty solid), probably because you can actually have a conversation on the street without dodging cruise ship groups every five minutes. You know what’s nice? You can grab morning coffee at a neighborhood café where the barista might actually remember your order by day three.
The Accommodation Experience
The rooms at Villa Boro 3 strike that perfect balance between comfortable and thoughtfully designed without trying too hard to impress. Everything feels intentional rather than generic — the kind of place where someone clearly thought about what travelers actually need versus what looks good in photos. The space feels more like staying in a well-appointed apartment than a typical hotel room, which makes sense given how highly recent guests rate their overall experience. Air conditioning works properly (trust me, this matters in Croatian summers), and the Wi-Fi doesn’t mysteriously disappear when you need it most.
The Neighborhood Advantage
What really sets this place apart is how it connects you to actual Dubrovnik life. You’re on a street where people live and work, not just visit and leave. There’s something refreshing about stepping out your door and seeing locals heading to the market or kids walking to school — it grounds the whole experience in reality rather than theme park tourism. The walk to major sights is totally manageable, but you also have access to those little family-run restaurants and shops that don’t show up in guidebooks. It’s the kind of location that makes you feel like you’re experiencing the city rather than just checking it off a list.
Why Guests Love It
Honestly, Villa Boro 3 works because it doesn’t try to be everything to everyone — it just does the important things really well. The high ratings make sense when you consider that this is the kind of place where you can actually relax between sightseeing adventures. Recent guests consistently praise the location (8.8 rating speaks for itself), and I think it’s because you get that rare combination of accessibility and authenticity. You’re not paying for marble lobbies or rooftop pools, but you are getting a genuinely comfortable base in one of Croatia’s most beautiful cities, run by people who seem to understand what makes a stay memorable.
Hotels in Dubrovnik place guests within the Old Town labyrinth, where limestone streets lead to secret stairway cafés and baroque churches.

What Our Guests Say
Upon arrival, we were greeted by a lovely lady (not the owner), whom offered us a welcome drink while she was sorting out our paper work.
The owner later greeted us, whom was extremely accommodating. We were offered the opportunity to have our towels changed everyday, but we didn't want to be disturbed or our room entered while was not there. We were left alone to enjoy the vicinity for the duration of our stay.
I loved everything about this property. It was so peaceful. We had a room with a sea view and a balcony. It was lovely to wind down in the evening with a cold beverage while taking in the scene in front of me or, with a coffee early in the morning.
The pool was excellent, after a hot day in the sun - much needed!
The accommodation was situated in the right area for the nightlife, beach and pick-up points ( if you wanted to take a day tour). It was local to the bus stop too, if you wanted to catch the No.6 bus to the old town.
There is also a small convenience store, reasonably priced, which is five minutes away from the property.
The steps that lead to the heart of everything, certainly tested my fitness, as we had to use these every day to get to and from the property. You'll, know what I mean, if you stay here.
On the whole, a lovely experience had.
Many thanks,
K. Willis

Peaceful, views, pool area.
What could be improved: Nothing.
Good location . Easy to walk down into lapad . Clean and tidy , good amenities in the apartment . Nice little pool
What could be improved: We couldn't get a lounger as people reserved them and weren't always present . There were only a few available
Not a problem for us but there are lots of steps to walk back up from the town to the apartment
This property had an outdoor pool with sun loungers and umbrellas which was great for those who want to sunbathe and relax by the pool. As well as that its really close to lots of great bars and restaurants.
Everything was super clean, the pool was great as was the outdoor seating - the host was amazing and incredibly helpful from start to finish.
Great location,
Recently renovated so everything is spotless. Staff are very friendly and great value for money
What could be improved: -
It was amazing thr host was very accommodating and they had such a lovely view would go back in a heart beat xx
Great location, beautiful views, the pool was lovely. Apartment itself was beautiful, clean and well stocked. Staff were friendly and the area was quiet but still very close to lots of local amenities
What could be improved: Honestly I can't fault them at all
A hidden little gem, tucked away from the busy restaurant/ bar strip. This property was possibly one of the cleanest places I have ever stayed in. Everything from the pool area, common area and apartment was exceptional. You could see the owners take great pride. Arrived late in the evening and was met with a complementary drink. The apartment itself is up a fair bit of step climbing from the strip but this is not something that would put me off. You are down into that area in less the five minutes. Easy access to a great bus service, the number 6 will bring you right into the centre of the old town in about 10/15 minutes. A return fare for both of us was less them €5. Used a cab too and that was only €10. I will be back to this property again for sure ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐🍀💚
What could be improved: There was nothing to fault 😊
