Guest Reviews

• Janja (10/5): -
• Olena (10/5): -
• Anita (9/5): Heerlijk vakantie in Dubrovnik area, Villa Carmen is een aanrader. - Top locatie, fijn zwembad met uitzicht op zee. Grote schone kamers, elk met een eigen terras. Veel leuke restaurantjes op loopafstand. Mooie boulevard langs de zee. Met taxi in 15 min naar Dubrovnik. Dagtocht per bus met pick-up in Mlini naar Montenegro, zeker de moeite waard. De prijzen voor drankjes/uit eten zijn wel hoog. Daarom fijn dat we een kitchenette hadden voor ontbijt/lunch. De douche cabine was aan vervanging toe.
• Kamil (10/5): -
• John (10/5): Exceeded expectations, fantastic stay, would highly recommend - - Views (breath-taking) - Location (heart of Mlini, near the supermarket, beach, restaurants, bars, pier/marina) - Welcome from staff - Pool area was nice - If I was hard-pushed then maybe more regular room cleaning / towel changes, but anytime we did need anything as soon as we asked it was granted
• Zuienko (7/5): - Очень красивая природа,сад,,бассейн близко пляж и вся инфраструктура..
• Andrea (8/5): - Direttamente sopra il mare in una spiaggiata stupenda.
• Yaroslav (10/5): -
• Kovács (10/5): Egy pici szelet az Adria hatalmas tortájából - A szállásunk egy mesebeli környezetben lévő apartman volt. Rendezett,tiszta bútorokkal, a szükséges konyhai felszerelésekkel. A szállásadóink nagyon kedvesek voltak. Az utolsó napunkon csak úgy kaptunk egy tál sütit a vendéglátóinktól,ami Isteni finom volt!!!! Innen is nagyon-nagyon köszönjük!!!A teraszunk tengerre néző volt (mint mindegyik 😅),de a miénk a legfelsô szinten volt egy jakuzzival. A tenger cc.100 méterre van. A legközelebbi strand is. Kb. 5 van pár száz mèteren belül. A panoráma eszméletlen szép!! Esténként a parton lévő sétányról felhallatszott egy 6 fős férfi kórus gitárokkal, tamburicával kisért több szólamú,andalító előadásai,plussz a tengeren csillogó holdfény....., a tenger morajlása, Jakuzzi.....Huhhh.... JÓ VOLT!! Mi önellátók voltunk,de bármit kérhettünk volna enni,elkészítették volna. Sok cica benézett esténként hozzánk egy kis kaját kunyizni. Az apartmanok körül a sok szebnél szebb citromfák( van egy 4 méter magas is,) narancsok, szőllők, mediterrán növények... kész botanikus kert. A strandokon mindent is lehet kapni, egy picivel olcsóbb balatoni árak vannak, de ez akkor is az Adria partján van, nem egy tó szèlèn. Nincs átvágás, vagy silány minőség. Dubrovnik...... Az UNESCO örökség része...... Gyönyörű! Láttam! Maga a szállásunk ára egy kicsit húzós volt,de az élmények, a látvány és az a mérhetetlen nyugalom ami az egész miliőt körbe lengi....... Megérte! Haza kellett jönni. 🥺
• Magdalena (10/5): To był idealny pierwszy pobyt w Chorwacji, trafiliśmy w idealną lokalizację i bardzo miłą obsługę, na pewno tam wrócimy. - Doskonała lokalizacja, pomocna obsługa, sprzątanie pokoju, basen Stosunkowo wysoka cena śniadania w porównaniu do okolicznych restauracji
• Noelle (10/5): Superb view, friendly and helpful staff and great location - Wonderful location with amazing proximity to the beach (50 m), we got the top floor apartment with a stunning view and amazing terrace that was so secluded and and quiet. The grapevine growing over the terrace was so wonderful. Room was huge, and everything was in good condition, new and well kept. A future addition could be a microwave oven. Towels were fresh, cleaning excellent and a large bed as well. The staff is the gold here. Warm, welcoming, feels like you're staying at someone's home. Also happy to help with tours, boat trips, local suggestions, parasol, history etc. Such beautiful main terrace with lots of cacti, succulents and plants, and beautiful flowers. Maybe some better amenities? There was small shampoo satchels, but no shower gel or conditioner. It was fine though, we bought our own at the supermarket! We didn't quite find the breakfast super affordable, but it was easy to go shopping and cooking in the room anyways so no issues. The vibe however was really homely and it felt like you were at someones home. Warm and welcoming. Note that the place is only accept cash (but you obviously get a receipt). Recommend using proper ATM in Dubrovnik, from a bank and not the ones posted all over town (Euro rate is terrible). Ask stsff for your total so you get the local tourist tax included as well. They are happy to help.
• Donna (10/5): Exceptional -
• Anna (5/5): Passable - very good location nice friendly owners the owner offered us a free boat trip to cavtat as a bonus gift cute cat Sashen’ka we had amazing terrace view swimming pool and nice area around it, our 4yo enjoeyd it a lot the stuff brings new towels and toilet paper, empties the trash bins every day beach umbrellas free to borrow cleanliness is somehow questionable our room was cleaned but the terrace floor was so dirty we would all the time bring the dirt inside wifi is patchy kitchen and bathroom somehow smelly kitchen stove and kettle working very slowly the towels look like the’ve been in use for at least a decade same goes to bedware, one sheet even had a hole our travel companions’s room did not really have a window (just the glass door) there was an occasional spider in the bathroom and kitchen and many ants on the terrace seems like the electricity switches are very old and not always do the job the kitchen was conpletely empty (no salt, pepper, oil, had to buy all the essentials from scratch) overall, at least our room (Family Studio) was underwhelming compared to the photos no washing machine, laundry costs 15e
• Sandra (10/5): Fabulous stay and hope to return. - Delightful stay in a family studio with a terrace enjoying absolutely stunning outlook. Fantastic location conveniently situated for both the superb local facilities and to the harbour providing easy access to Dubrovnik and other places of interest. Accommodation well presented and clean and staff extremely welcoming, friendly and helpful. The steps up but worth it for the view!!
• Karolina (10/5): Exceptional -
• Gemma (10/5): Exceptional - Absolutely Perfect – A 10-Day Stay to Remember! I’m on my last day from an amazing 10-day stay at Villa Carmen in Mlini, and I honestly can’t recommend it enough. The whole experience was flawless from start to finish. The apartment itself was spotless – super clean and beautifully maintained – with a fantastic pool that was perfect for relaxing. Doris and Carmen were truly exceptional hosts. Nothing was too much trouble, and they went out of their way to make me feel welcome and looked after throughout my stay. My room was spacious and comfortable, with a breathtaking view from the balcony – so stunning that I found myself spending most evenings out there just soaking it all in. I also dined at their restaurant, Konoba Marinero and the meal was incredible – delicious food and excellent service in a lovely setting. To top it all off, I used their water taxi service to visit both Cavtat and Dubrovnik – a brilliant way to travel, with the same friendly and professional service I experienced throughout my stay. If you're thinking about staying here – do it. You won’t be disappointed!! I am extremely sad to be leaving this beautiful place Going home 😢
• Sebastian (9/5): Superb - Very friendly owners, excellent localisation
• Milan (8/5): Very good -
• Jari-pekka (9/5): A great B&B - A super nice bed and breakfast with an excellent location. The wifi did not work that well in the room, and the breakfast is slightly overpriced, but otherwise nothing to complain.
• Suki (9/5): An hour aside so from the madness in the world - Amazing location , beautiful grounds, close to beach and restaurants very quiet area. Fantastic owner ! Nothing
• Barrie (10/5): Little hidden gem, host extremely friendly and couldn’t be more helpful - Location Lots of steps!
• Sylvia (7/5): Mlini Area Worth a Visit - The Villa had beautiful and lush gardens. The little pool had a nice picturesque area to sit and relax. The Villa and pool overlooked the gorgeous Adriatic Sea. The sea view from the room was calming and lovely. The Studio Apartment had a nice little kitchenette. The breakfast selection was limited. If you didn't care for the offerings that day you left hungry. The Quantity of hot food cooked by the owner was controlled. The breakfast is not really a true buffet and was not worth 14 Euro per person. There are restaurants close by that also serve breakfast. The many steep steps up to the property and up to your room proved to be quite challenging, especially if you took them 2-3 times each day. People with mobility issues of any kind should avoid this property. The pillows went flat and were a little too low.
• Marc (9/5): Superb -
• Aleksandra (9/5): Superb - It was a perfect place to stay in Mlini, peaceful and calm. The villa is surrounded with astonishing plants, the pool was a very nice addition. There was everything we needed, the hosts were amazingly friendly and helpful.
• Asja (9/5): Superb -
• Pia (9/5): Villa Carmen and our room was exactly what we expected! - Carmen and the entire staff did an excellent job of making our vacation go well. The villa and our room was exactly what we expected. The room was clean and quiet with a great sea view. The pool area was quiet and clean. The location of the villa is great, close to the beach and shops. We felt safe and welcome. We would definitely come again. In addition, the wonderful restaurant Marinero is next door, with tasty fish and seafood Accommodation can only be paid in cash, it doesn't feel good to carry a large amount of cash with you on a trip.
• John (8/5): Fabulous stay - will be back. - Lovely location, very convenient for everything. Close to beach, shops, restaurant etc. We had a lovely room and big patio area with fantastic view of the sea which didn’t disappoint. Breakfast was lovely, fresh food with enough choices to satisfy. Lovely friendly staff who did everything to make your stay special. Not really didn’t like but worth noting the Swimming pool a Little warm for us but think some guests would see this as a bonus, especially if they had young children. Not suitable for people with mobility issues as lots of steps.
• Davey (10/5): Exceptional -
• Marie (9/5): Superb - Very friendly host - very welcoming, kind and ready to help with any kind of questions.
• David (10/5): We will be back ! - A great location and marvellous hosts Nothing
• Jakub (10/5): Great host, great view, clean, quiet, close to the beach - Client service - people are very kind, closeness to the beach & restaurants, the view was the best! As I really love to cook the kitchen & appliances was good to prepare some real dishes not only tea, coffee & snacks.
• Jari-pekka (8/5): Very good - A great B&B with a beautiful view. In early spring, the rooms can be rather cold during outside summer season. So, consider taking warm night wear with you if it looks like nights are going to be cold.
• Stephan (8/5): Very good -
• Tony (9/5): Our stay in Croatia exceeded our expectations. Dubrovnik is a short bus ride away and is a MUST place to visit. Other re - The location is great. The owners, Carmen and Doris are extremely friendly and will welcome you with open arms. You can enjoy a lovely breakfast with fabulous views of the Adriatic Sea. The room was nice and clean and served its purpose. The Mariner restaurant is next door and is also owned by Carmen, you will be made to feel welcome by her and the staff. The food is great and again can be enjoyed with superb views. Not that it bothered us, but be aware if you're a wheelchair user or have difficulty walking up steps, then this property is not for you.
• Jari-pekka (7/5): A nice B&B with a superb view - If are joining an event in the area or looking for a place to stay outside the super touristic city center, this is a good choice. The room gets quite cold during April. Remember to ask an extra blanket.
• Jean (10/5): MN123 - The place is really nice and the host really helpful and nice.
• Verified traveler (10/5): - Lovely stay excellent position and very friendly hosts will be back again
• Jonathan (10/5): - We really enjoyed our short stay at Villa Carmen. The location, village, and facilities at the accommodation made it a great holiday. most important was the service and the smile. We want to thank the family who run the villa for their hospitality and kindness. We also heard about the boat excursion run by their related company and took a wonderful day trip to 3 local islands.
• Mike (10/5): Happy Stay - Excellent situation for Dubrovnik or for beaches. Small pool but good. Didn’t eat there so can’t comment but all looked good. Carmen and Doris very skilled in looking after guests.
• Minna (8/5): Great choice for last night in Croatia - We stayed at Villa Carmen for one night at the end of our trip.Great choice for the last night in Croatia.The hosts were lovely!Thank you Carmen and Doris!You have a lovely place.
• Mikael (8/5): - Amazing view from the terrace and wonderful hospitality. Not the most modern rooms and breakfast was rather pricy. Also, don't forget that you can only pay cash, they don't take credit cards.
• Joy (6/5): Location is fantastic! Area is quiet. - Location is perfect, close to the beach and supermarket. Both Carmen and Doris are very welcoming and communication is very quick and easy. The room itself is basic and clean.
• Danilo (8/5): Perfect place in a nice suite with great sea view - Perfect place for senior tourists and couples for a longer stay in the Dubrovnik area. We came with two small children (4 and 1 year old) and felt a bit strange since we had to pay an extra fee for the kitchen usage during our stay (since our original room was overbooked we received an upgrade to a Suite). They room was clean and nice with great large balcony and fabulous view on the sea. Breakfast was good but nothing special. The family sisters running the Villa Carmen were helpful during our stay.
• James (10/5): Excellent location, friendly people! - We had a lovely stay at the Villa Carmen. Carmen herself is a very friendly and helpful person, as is her sister Doris. The location of the Villa Carmen is fantastic, as it is so close to the beach, as well as being close to the harbour, so you can easily get to Dubrovnik, Cavtat and Lokrum. Our room was really clean and tidy with a wonderful terrace overlooking the bay. There is a small supermarket and also a larger shopping centre all within walking distance, as well as a few bars and restaurants. Carmen herself has a restaurant two doors along from the Villa Carmen, which serves lovely food with a great view of the bay. She also runs a travel company called Vivado, so you can arrange tours and boat trips etc with her, without having to wait at the port. Everyone we came across was incredibly friendly and helpful and the weather was great(14th - 21st October) so this just topped off a wonderful holiday!
• Celine (10/5): The Lovely Villa Carmen - The Villa Carmen and the owners are so nice and really helpful, nothing was too much trouble. I would recommend booking direct with Villa Carmen. Do not book through Expedia!
• Rich (4/5): Perfect Location - Hostel like facilities. - The location is fantastic, you can get an Uber to either Dubrovnik or Cavtat in 10-15 minutes. The 'apartment' is about 30 seconds walk to the nearest pebble beach - lovely small cove. Local restaurants are really nice also, food is very good but prices are still in line with what you expect to pay at other two locations. The rooms, they were rather dire - The room we had was dark, tiny and very dated. The bathroom was at the back of the room, it had a shower curtain which was far too long and just laid in the tray, a toilet and a sink. Hot water tank needed to be switched on for hot water - barely got 2 short showers out of the tank. Luckily we had one suitcase between us, because if we had two, not sure where we would have put it. There was a massive fridge - which was great for storing water - but since there were no other self catering equipment, not sure what else you could use it for. (Not even a plate or a knife/fork). Also, I suggest bringing your own towel. The towels provided were from 1960 and you needed to be quite strong to bend them round you and they were extremely rough. All in all, the fantastic location and pool is let down by the poor accommodation. The facilities are more in line with a hostel as oppose to holiday accommodation. In fact some south american hostels I've stayed in were more appealing. If you want a decent location for a couple of days, this would be ok - any longer, then try somewhere else.
• Fabio (10/5): Fantastic place! - Fantastic two days at an amazing beach with very good hosts and excellent breakfast with a view
• Verified traveler (8/5): Nice quiet location, near beach and close to town. - Villa Carmen is a great place, near Dubrovnik and offers pretty much everything one desires. Pool, excellent free WiFi, parking (not free), breakfast, nice bed, lots of channels on TV, and most rooms with some type of ocean view. They also run a fine restaurant next door, which is a better bargain than similar ones down the street. Just skip the Parmesan monk fish medallions. Mostly bone. Hotel is easy to find and there are numerous shopping areas in walking distance. The area is quiet and nice for relaxing. The boat dock is 10 minutes walk and they offer departures to Dubrovnik (and other sites) nearly every hour. Be sure and ask the boat captain on return times as the schedule is not always accurate. All in all a great stay. Croatia is beautiful country, with lots of history and everyone is extremely helpful and warm. Especially Carmen and Doris! They exemplify the Croatian & Mediterranean hospitality, friendliness and spirit.
• Sue (10/5): Good accommodation very close to the beach. - We had a lovely stay at Villa Carmen. Couldn't have wished for a more friendly and helpful host or hosts as 2 adorable sisters run the accommodation and restaurant next door but one. You should be aware that there are a few steps from the accommodation down to the beach. We loved everything about the room and resort we are planning on going back. Lots of restaurants, hotels, bars, a couple of supermarkets and a shopping precinct to go to. There are lots of beaches to go to within walking distance of each other. Pebbly beaches and beautiful clear water. Did rain a few times but still very warm and it didn't last long. We found that a car wasn't necessary as there are water taxis to different areas and excursions available. The beaches were immaculate with changing facilities and showers actually on the beach. Shopping and eating out seemed reasonable. We loved everything about villa Carmen.
• Nathalie (10/5): Any time again - Carmen is a very friendly and lovely person. The location is perfect since just in front of one of the direct beach access. Also, the close by Marinero restaurant (also belonging to the familly) offers a great view on the sea and the food is just great.
• Emily (8/5): Great location, lovely pool! - Great location very close to beach and restaurants within easy reach of Dubrovnik old town (30 mins by boat). There is an excellent restaurant next door Marinero, run by the same people. Room facilities were good, better than advertised, with fridge and air conditioning. We had room B1 and my parents were in C2. There were 4 of us in B1 and it was a little cramped but ok for 3 nights. C2 (on 3rd level) is a fantastic room though, with a kitchenette and wonderful views!
• Gillian (10/5): - The owners were very sweet. Beautiful hotel outside of Dubrovnik. Not much to to in the town but boat access to Dubrovnik city is easy enough, takes about 1/2hr.
• Verified traveler (8/5): Perfect base - Perfect for peace and quiet with the Dubrovnik centre 10 mins away by taxi or 30 mins by boat which is owned by the same group. Carmen and Doris are lovely and will help with anything to make your stay enjoyable. They even ironed my boyfriends shirt for him!!!
• Paul (10/5): Best location, friendly host - Amazing property at a very nice location with friendly, helpful owners. We stayed here only for a few days, but we felt immediately at home. The location is great to visit Dubrovnik without the hassle of staying in town. Very close to restaurants, stores and the ocean is across the street. You can hear the waves at night.
• sandi & tania (10/5): Very nice hotel by a lovely beach - Staff were very pleasant & knowledgeable about the history of the area and good things to do & see. The spacious, air conditioned room we had was simple but tasteful with a balcony & superb views of the pool & sea & garden. Location is an enjoyable boat ride to the beautiful old city of Dubrovnik. We would come again & do recommend this place.
