VERY cosy, tidy room with a big balkony, which gives you the best look over the city and the coastline. Extremely hospitable owner, who put a huge effort in making our stay as pleasant as any possible. Pick-up from the bus, welcome drinks, super delicious ice cream - Ivan is legendary! The kitchen is spacious and well equipped. Very close... More

Stayed here for a week in october. Room was clean, and had a huge balcony with great views over gruz harbour. The old town is a rather hilly 20 minute walk away, but there are regular buses which were our preferred option. I booked this on a hostel booking website for an incredibly cheap price, but dont let that put... More

Stayed at Villa Ivan for 2 nights whilst we were travelling in Dubrovnik and can't recommend it enough. Ivan is such a lovely man, he couldn't do enough for us. He gave us loads of information, advice about trips and his wife even took us to our next hostel in Lapad at the end of our stay. Such lovely people... More

The most important thing to mention about Villa Ivan is how perfect it is. The rooms are lovely and spotless, the air con, if you want it, cools the room beautifully and is inexpensive at €5 per day. The view from the balcony is beautiful, especially so at sunset and this is Villa Ivan's big draw. Admittedly it is not... More

Ivan's wife picked us up from the bus station for free, our room was clean, AC (5 Euros a night), wifi and excellent bathroom ... the best bit was the balcony and view of sunset! It is a bit of a walk into OLd Town (15-20 mins) , but worth it for the money saved, friendly people (gave us a... More

The apartment has fantastic views over the port and across the city. In a relaxing location, the apartment is still very close to the Old Town...only a 20 minute walk down! Note that there are lots of steps, so as long as you can deal with these you should be fine. We had a very relaxing stay here after spending... More

It was great to have Ivan waiting for me at the bus terminal. A most pleasant man and caring host. He has all of the information and shares it readily. The room I had was a room with a spectacular view from the balcony. At any time of the day and night, I never tired of looking out or sitting... More

We thoroughly enjoyed our 2 nights here, one night before and one night after a cruise. The helpfulness and friendliness of Ivan and Kate was wonderful and it was so nice to be met straight off the flight. Their house has the most amazing views over Dubrovnik and it gave us a feel for real life in Dubrovnik as opposed... More

I would just like to echo the words of professionalwanderer about the hostile email the owner would send you if you did not provide a review that he feels is reasonable. His email was unprofessional an stated wrong facts trying to defend his hidden charges of 5 euros for air-conditioning and 5 euros for transport to main bus station stating... More
