Guest Reviews
- Carol (9/5): - Apartment was clean, comfortable and had the essentials we needed. Slavko was friendly and helpful. He received us upon arrival and showed us the apartment. It was an easy 10 to 15 mins ride to the Old Town by uber. We understand a bus is also available. There is a supermarket and meat shop around the corner together with cafes and restaurants nearby. One could walk to the lovely beach nearby too. Overall, together with Dubrovnik's attractions, it was the best stay I had in Croatia. Nothing.
- Chen (10/5): -
- Ka Ki (10/5): Great stay in Dubrovnik - good value for money! - Beautiful apartment with thoughtful touches Nothing
- Leslie (10/5): Beautiful, clean, and welcoming spot for us to call home while we explored Dubrovnik! - Slavko and Nikolina were amazing hosts! There was a bottle of wine waiting for us when we arrived. Slavko greeted us with keys, and even offered an extra set since we were a group of four. The apartment is simply beautiful. Efficient, clean, nicely decorated, 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms. Perfect for two couples traveling together in Croatia. The deck overlooked the lovely garden. The apartment is about a 10 minute car ride to the old city, and 300 meters to a beautiful beach! Additionally, they checked on us to make sure we had everything we needed, and provided us a clothesline for drying suits and towels, as well as larger towels that we took to the beach.
We had a lovely time there, and would go back anytime! Thank you for the warm hospitality!
- Carole (10/5): Perfect - We have been to Lapad several times before but this was by far the best accommodation we have stayed in. It's plenty big enough for 2 couples and is equipped with everything you need including 2 of the best hairdryers I've ever used - better than some 5 star hotels. It's ideally situated for the beach, harbour, shops and restaurants. Slavko was a charming host and his wife a great cook, supplying us with tasty treats.
It take about 30-40 minutes to walk into the Old Town (check the cruise ship schedule first). Mosquitos! Take repellent!
- Jo (9/5): Lovely apartment - ideal for a group - Friendly and helpful owner, two bathrooms (one ensuite) which is handy when travelling with a group, comfortable lounge/living room, beautiful garden and short walk to beach and nearby restaurants. Nothing.
- ALAN (9/5): Great location in a fantastic part of Croatia. Ranks very high in our list of holiday memories - The host was superb and made sure we were well looked after even to the point of the free bottle of wine and the occasional home made food treat
- SERGIO (10/5): - Apartamento muy amplio, cómodo, silencioso, muy buen soporte por parte del dueño, guardándonos aparcamiento en frente de la casa, que se agradece aún más por los precios de parkings en la ciudad. Asimismo, muy buen detalle y preocupándose por nuestra comodidad. Totalmente recomendable.
- Cindy (10/5): If you want a quiet and charming stay in Dubrovnik, this apt is just right. Nice to have 2 bathrooms, too. - It was delightfully charming with everything you need for your stay. Nice little balcony to sit on to enjoy a cup of coffee or a glass of wine. Host graciously had a bottle of wine and chocolates out and also brought slices of cake. He also arranged our ride to the airport for 4:30am pick-up. Over and above! Nothing! It was just delightful.
- Schikowski (10/5): Perfect little stay, extremely comfortable and welcoming, great location, and a very sweet host. Thank you for having us -
- Kristie (10/5): Perfect stay in Dubrovnik. Everything was amazing - It was a beautiful property. Excellent location. Perfect host. Absolutely immaculate inside and out. Great value for money Nothing at all really. Even though it looks like it's far out from the old town it was so easy and cheap to uber

- Rebecca (9/5): It was the perfect place to stay for our trip to Dubrovnik - The location was perfect. Quiet neighbourhood and very close to the beach, shops/restaurants. The host was very welcoming and friendly. You can tell the apartment is well looked after. The old town isn’t too far about 10 min drive and uber is very convenient
- Celia (10/5): - Comodidad, limpieza, amplitud, la amabilidad del anfitrión
- Daisy (10/5): 38 Dalmantinska will always be special to us… - Amazing home and even better hosts. Slavko was perfect in helping us settle in the area and knowing we here to go. His house is great with all amenities and very nicely furnished and well thought. Easy way to go to old city by Uber, taxi, bus. As we love walking, it was very enjoyable too All is perfect
- Brent (10/5): - The host family were so friendly and lovely. We were treated to home made crème caramel and local made liqueur which was delightful.
- Ira (10/5): Perfect apartment, amazing host, we’d come back in a heartbeat. - We stayed here as two couples and honestly loved everything about it. The apartment is big, super clean, and has everything you could possibly need. Location was spot on -quiet area but just a short walk to the beach and restaurants, and easy to get to the Old Town. Slavko, the owner, is the nicest guy ever- so friendly and helpful, made us feel completely at home.🫶 Nothing at all, it was perfect for us.
- Tim (10/5): Exceptional - The owners were incredibly friendly, helpful and really helped to make our family stay memorable. The appartment was very clean with everything we needed. Location is also great with easy local bus service linking the area with the old town. And the local beach and restaurants are perfect.
- Sarah (10/5): Perfect place to stay in Dubrovnik with wonderful hosts - Our host met us and showed us around the property and gave us helpful information about local transport, supermarket, restaurants etc. Our host checked in with us during our stay and always had time to have a chat.
The apartment sits within a quiet garden of fruit trees and plants and an early morning swim is only 10 minutes walk away along with places to eat and drink. We liked the location of the apartment in Lapad which is a 10 minute bus ride into Dubrovnik old city.
We can highly recommend Ortenca apartment to stay. Thank you to our kind and helpful host.
- Scharrighuisen (9/5): Superb - Great host. Good value for money. Beds and pillows are a bit hard but otherwise great.

- Bianca (10/5): Exceptional - All was perfect! We will definitely come back! Nothing
- Elizangela (10/5): The stay was amazing, the host is so polite and nice towards us. You will lovw the location and the AC - We loved the host, the location and the AC Mattress was a bit too firm for me.
- Jan (10/5): Best accomodations in Lapad. - Lapad was our first stop in wonderful Croatia. We were warmly greeted by Slavka at his charming Ortenca apartment. Slavka was helpful arranging for transportation to and from the airport. He gave us helpful tips on local restaurants and beaches to visit. The apartment is exceptionally clean and well furnished. Slavka provided wine and chocolates and his wife even baked pastry for us. We would highly recommend staying at the Ortenca apartment!
- Irene (10/5): Exceptional -
- Nancy (10/5): Exceptional - The host was welcoming and genuine. He gave great restaurant suggestions and places to go. The home was charming, surrounded by lush beautiful gardens. It was in an ideal location for walking to the beaches and town. Our group thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Ortenca apartment, and highly recommend it.
- Himmat (10/5): Exceptional - We had a wonderful stay! The apartment was very nice and exceptionally clean. Both the balcony and the front porch were excellent spots to relax and enjoy the surroundings. The location was perfect — within walking distance to public transport and a supermarket, which made everything super convenient. The host was very welcoming and gave us great advice on how to get around and make the most of our time in Dubrovnik. Highly recommended!
- Janine (9/5): Superb -
- Irene (10/5): Perfect stay in a lovely two bedroom apartment close to the beach, restaurants and the Old Town, which was about a 15 mi - We loved the location, as well as the friendly and helpful owners who were there to greet us and give us a sense of how to get around based on our interests, we really appreciated the cleanliness, and the lovely decor. The apartment had everything we needed. Everything was excellent
- Sandip (10/5): Beautiful property with lovely surroundings - Beautiful place very clean with all the facilities with small garden and beautiful surroundings very nearby restaurants ,the owner is very friendly and helpful he guides us to how to get bus for old town and nearby restaurants he was very prompt to reply us and let us check in early It’s beautiful property we will definitely suggest this place and love to go again
- Ole (10/5): Great apartment, superb location and the most amazing host ever! - The host was amazing. We have travelled to over 60 countries, and the host of the Ortenca Apartment must be the kindest host we have ever encountered. Helpful, positive, and very attentive. The apartment was in excellent condition, perfect for a family of four or two couples travelling together. The location is superb, quite yet very central. Trust me, you do not want to live close by the old town. Next time we travel to Dubrovnik we will be back!! Nothing. We loved it!
- Lucille (10/5): Home away from home. Very comfortable stay with convenient location. Plus the host is very friendly & helpful. - Convenient location away from the crowd with just a short bus ride to old town, very comfortable & homely stay, excellent host who is very friendly & helpful, even treated us to creme brûlée baked by his wife for tea.
Host & his wife live on the upper floor, while his daughter & her children live at the lower floor. The guest accommodation is on the ground floor. Although the host family is on site, we had a lot of privacy. no washing machine to do laundry but host offered to wash for us.
- Khoo (10/5): Best Stay in Dubrovnik - Absolutely everything.
1. Located near bus stop that takes you all the way to Old Town. Mini market and restaurant just down the road
2. Apartment is spotlessly clean. Fully equipped kitchen. Also has nice garden filled with fruit trees and vegetables. Apartment is so cozy and comfortable, it's like going home after a long day of sightseeing.
3. Mr Carevic is so hospitable, helpful, kind and friendly. He waited for us although we arrived late in the night to show us ard the apartment. And we were greeted with chocolates and a bottle of wine. We were also blessed with the yummiest dessert homemade by Mrs Carevic. On checkout day, he was kind enough to help us get to the airport to pick up our rental car.
I highly recommend this apartment and can't thank the Careviz family enough to make our trip to Dubrovnik so memorable. Nothing
- Michael (10/5): Exceptional - Slavko, our host, was so welcoming and helpful. My wife particularly liked the fact that there were makeup mirrors and full
length mirrors. Walkable to beach and town. Lovely stay for 2 couples
- Jacki (10/5): Beautiful apartment and very welcoming hosts - This was our second visit to Ortenca apartments - and with good reason. Arriving at the apartment felt like coming back home. Our host was as always exceptionally welcoming and accommodating, the apartment is beautiful and clean. The little touches like the wine and chocolates on arrival are very appreciated, and the property is ideally located close to a shop, great restaurants and a bus stop directly into old town. Can't fault it. I hope to be back one day again. Nothing to complain about
- Angela (10/5): Wonderful quiet apartment - Beautiful apartment in a garden district, walking distance to the harbor, shops, and restaurants. Slavgo had a bottle of wine and chocolates waiting for us and even drove us to our ship. He obviously takes a lot of pride in all the details. Really stunning. I can't say a bad word about it.
- Jacki (10/5): A pleasant surprise - the perfect apartment with the most wonderful hosts. - Our hosts were incredibly welcoming. They met us on arrival (they live upstairs) and showed us the facilities and assisted with directions to a very nearby supermarket, beach, bus stop (a quick and cheap trip to Old Town) and restaurants. There was a bottle of wine and chocolates on the dining table. The apartment was spotlessly clean, despite us arriving 5 hours many hours ahead of official check-in time (they had not guaranteed early check-in but promised to keep our bags - but the previous guests left early so they accommodated an early check-in in which was very welcome). The nearby restaurant was exceptional (food, ambience, etc). The aircon in all rooms was very welcome. On our first full day the rain came down in buckets in a freak day-long rainstowm (all schools and ferries were closed etc). We were housebound. The hosts popped in with slices of cake, and gave us two umbrellas so we could dash to dinner. On our departure day our host graciously offered to take us to the port to catch our ferry - despite being a very early morning - which we were extremely grateful for. We are heading back there in a few days time and look forward to seeing more of the city without the rain. The only downside (and it's very minor) is that the wooden floors are a bit creaky, and the apartment is on the ground floor, so if you are a light sleeper, it's slightly noisy unless everyone is asleep both in and above the apartment.
- Svetlana (10/5): New, clean and very comfortable apartment in Dubrovnik - The host was extremely nice and helpful. The apartment seems absolutely new, and the cleanliness was above any standard - probably cleaner than my own house! The place had everything we needed, and was properly air conditioned.
The location is a bit further away from the centre, but the area is very nice and safe.
One of the best apartments I've stayed at, very positive experience! Nothing
- Maria (10/5): A superb accommodation!! - Am absolutely wonderful apartment. it is located in a very nice and quiet neighborhood. The owners are very nice and kind. The apartment consists of a living room, a fully equipped kitchen, 2 double bedrooms, 2 fully equipped bathrooms, a balcony and a terrace. I also had a parking space in front of the accommodation. Because we had a rainy stay, the owners gave us 2 umbrellas so that we could visit the city in the rain. Next to the accommodation there is a very good restaurant with decent prices, a supermarket and a bus stop that takes you directly to the center in less than 20 minutes. We will definitely come back! Everything was superlative. We recommend! Everything was absolutely perfect!
- Nataliia (10/5): Exceptional - It was one of the best apartments we ever stayed, perfectly located, and with all possible amenities in it. The owner was extremely helpful and welcoming!
- Sean (10/5): Exceptional -
- Cindy (10/5): The place was amazing. Location was perfect. Very comfortable for a group of 4. Plenty of space. - The owner was waiting for us and gave us a tour.
- Alain (9/5): Superb - It is a nice apartment and the management are very friendly and helpful. I recommend it.
- Aarti (10/5): A Royal stay - The property was excellent and very tidy and comfortable. The hosts were great and left us a bottle of wine and chocolates. It was close to the supermarket and a bus stop making it easy to reach the old town. Liked everything.
- Agnieszka (10/5): Great stay - Everything was great! The apartment is clean and spacious. The host very nice and helpful.
- Jatinder (10/5): Fantastic apartment, great host and brilliant value - A very friendly Mr Carevic (the owner) met us on arrival and showed us around the apartment and gave us local tips, like where to get the bus, the supermarket, etc. The apartment is a generous size and is in a 3 storey small building. Mr & Mrs Carevic live on the top floor and their daughter lives in the basement floor. The apartment overlooks their beautiful garden where they grow all manner of fruit and vegetables. It features a well stocked modern kitchen with everything you need to make your own meals (high quality pots, pans, glasses, etc. It even has a Moka pot and had a supply of fresh ground coffee. The living area features a comfortable sofa, dining table, armchair and satellite tv. The wifi is very good and free. The bedrooms themselves are not big, but not small either. The beds were very comfortable. There is AC in all the rooms, which is a necessity in the Croatian summer. The bathrooms both have a powerful shower powerd by Solar panels on the roof and stocked up with toiletries and towels. Logistically the apartment is a great base for exploring Dubrovnik. The No6 bus stops about 100m away and from here it's a 10min journey to Pile gate, where you enter Old Town. There is also a promenade nearby lined with shops, bars and restaurants, and leads down to Lapad beach. One of our party was celebrating her birthday and we were very pleasantly surprised when we came back to the apartment and found 4 slices of tasty cake that Mrs Carevic had kindly left for us. This has got to be one of the best holiday apartments we have ever stayed in and I'd highly recommend it. No negatives at all
- Sheila (10/5): We had great stay - Everything . If I could , I gave 20 out of 10 Nothing !!!
- Robi (10/5): Friendly owner, parking space guaranteed - Super apartment layout, large rooms, two bathrooms, tidy, modern and perfectly adapted for disabled people.
- Abdulwahab (10/5): Thank you, Slavko - 1. Slavko Carević (the owner) was so humble, generous, welcoming, funny, helpful and cooperative in every possible way.
2. The apartment was so clean and comfy with everything a person needs as daily essentials especially the kitchen appliances.
3. I really appreciated the welcoming bottle of wine with some chocolate, but what I loved the most of Carević's hospitality was when Slavko brought me a homemade delicious cake which was prepared by his wife.
4. Bus Stop #6 south is just a 3 minutes walk, plus a restaurant, a grocery and a butcher are all a 2 minutes walk. Nothing actually.
- Arber (10/5): Clean and cosy! - Very neat and clean! 2 bathrooms. Very nice!
- Zhanna (10/5): Exceptional -
- Susan (10/5): Exceptional -
- Julie (10/5): Exceptional - Everything perfect for our group of 4, tidy host was wonderful close to beaches and old town Nothing

- Mark (9/5): Only stayed one night as a day trip from Montenegro to the old town of Dubrovnik a nice area, quiet with good amenities. - What a lovely apartment spacious for 4 people with good facilities and a nice outlook of the garden with parking and close to amenities. A good place to stay for a trip to the Old Town of Dubrovnik The mattresses were hard and not to everyone’s liking however the bedding was clean and welcoming.
- Eloise (9/5): Super lovely place with amazing host, great location - Owner went above and beyond for us during our stay! The place was comfortable, clean and stylish. Many bars and restaurants witching walking distance The pillows were not very comfy, which is down to personal preference. However everything else was perfect, this is not a major!
- James (10/5): Very highly recommended - Great location and excellent value. Really modern and clean and super friendly host who made us very welcome and helped us with everything. Nothing!
- Daniel (8/5): Very good -
- Macgonigal (10/5): A beautiful apartment in a great location. - We stayed for one night at Ortenca Apartment after finishing a 1-week cruise to Dubrovnik.

- Lindsay (10/5): Exceptionally good - The apartment was bright, spacious, comfortable and very nicely appointed. There are two outdoor spaces with patio tables & chairs. It's in a residential area of Dobrovnik but quite quiet, surrounded by trees and the family's garden. The owners could not be more friendly and helpful. There is easy access to the old town on the nearby bus routes & also a short walk down to the beach area with a delightful walkway along the shore. Nothing.
- Sue (10/5): Wonderful apartment close to beach and promenade - Amazing apartment and great location.The owner was great, went above and beyond to assist us,even driving us to the Port on check out.
Close to Promenade and beach The weather
- Sheree (10/5): Beautiful Apartment - If you are considering booking this property, do not hesitate! The apartment is beautiful, spotless clean and comfortable. The location is absolutely perfect and in walking distance to everything within the lapad area. Uber to old town 5/6 euros and picks you up at the front gate. The real gem of this place is the host Slavko who lives in the property upstairs. The kindest man who could not do enough for us. He brought us beautiful homemade apple pie that his wife made and lovely red wine and chocolates. Anything we needed he was more than happy to help. We had a fantastic stay and will miss our morning coffee on the balcony looking at the lemon trees. Thank you! We will be back! Nothing
- Helen (9/5): Excellent location, beautiful apartment with a super helpful and friendly host. - The property was beautifully decorated and spotlessly clean. The facilities were sufficient for a 4 day stay. The host was a very nice man, Super friendly and helpful to the point that he went over and beyond what was expected. He even brought a birthday cake for us. The location was excellent and we had parking for one car. There wasn't sufficient hot water for 4 people to have a shower around the same time. The parking spot was tight for a big car, therefore it is advisable to check with the host if you plan on bringing and car that is bigger than average. The beds were hard, one member of our party found them too hard and uncomfortable. Perhaps a matter of personal choice, The host was very friendly and present. One day, while we were out, he let himself in. He did collect some rubbish and leave us some homemade pastries, but not everyone would like the idea of the host entering the property during the stay, even if he did leave cake. There was no washing machine, which could be an issue for a longer stay.
- Karen (10/5): Exceptional - Fantastic apartment, everything you need. The host was amazing, helpful and on hand for every question we had. Great location, short drive from the Old Town Dubrovnik and close to restaurants and the beach. Highly recommended. We had a great stay
