We loved the beautiful balcony and its view over the bay. It really never got old to wake up to the view of Lapad bay every day, watching the water, seeing the islands and the trees of the National park opposite. The hob and cooking facilities came in really helpful when we needed to cook (due to the high costs of the restaurants). The bathroom was small but very functional and nice shower. The plunge pool was so nice to use during the high heat. Most of all the lovely team that changed our towels every 2 days and a wonderful cleaning service halfway through stay. The girls were so kind and friendly and a pleasure to see around, they’d always help with any questions and helped arrange our taxi back to the airport. If not getting a bus, I’d thoroughly recommend asking the property to help with taxis, as airport taxis cost double! The welcome pack before staying was also very helpful, and our host kindly helped out when we had noisy neighbours. A beautiful stay at Villa Katarina, in a luxury area for a very cost effective price. We felt incredibly lucky to be enjoying the same views and sunsets as those in the premium hotels below. We were able to walk down to the famous cave bar for a sundown drink right on the water. We adored Lapad’s scenery and the bay, with local supermarkets and restaurants in walking distance. Unfortunately we were surprised at the very high cost of dining, perhaps to be expected in a tourist area but we were not prepared for this. Dishes such as bolognese or past cost up to €27-30 so be prepared for this in your budget. We found an excellent fast food restaurant (Tuttobene) with many healthy options that was cheaper which we could bring back to the balcony. Several supermarkets are nearby which helped us with breakfast/lunch options.
The TV had little in terms of English channels, but to be expected, and not really needed on holiday but maybe on rainy days. WiFi was sometimes a little patchy. We would have liked an extra few pillows on the bed for our preference but used the throw cushions from the sofa. A word of caution if booking the superior apartments at the top of the building, there are 2 flights of steep steps to consider if you are able to climb them/carry your bags.

The position in Lapad has a lovely view of the bay and ocean. Quiet location, walking distance to restaurants, cafes and bars.

The apartment was so spacious, and the view from the balcony was amazing. The location was a 2min walk down stairs to the promenade and several swimming spots and restaurants. A supermarket was 5 mins walk away. For the view, you are up quite steep terrain, so the walk back was quite uphill, but nothing too strenuous, but just so you are aware.
You cannot use the apartment towels for the pool om site. Staff are strict on this so just ensure you have your own towel for this and the beach, not a big deal but good to be aware of it.

Amazing views from the balcony over Lapad. A short walk down to the bars and restaurants (bit longer coming back up the 178 steps!) Located just above the popular Cave bar. You can get a local bus into old town - tip: if you buy the Dubrovnik Pass you get entry to all the main attractions and it includes 24hr travel pass for the local buses. Just show the e-ticket to the bus driver when you get on.
Take your own beach towels if you want to use the pool. Water shoes are helpful if you want to go in the sea as its very stoney but lots of beach vendors sell them nearby.

The apartment had amazing views over Lapad beach, which is one of the main reasons we chose it when looking at places to stay in Dubrovnik, close to the old town, but did not want to pay the level of expense of hotels in the surrounding area. The apartment was really clean, had the basics needed for the kitchen to cover breakfast or cooking pasta, the shower was powerful (a big plus), the bed was nice and comfy, with TV and Wifi . In terms of wider contact, the Host was always quick to respond in terms of messages and sent us a link about the Villa and the area before our arrival. We had messaged the Host about the check-in time due to our flight being later than planned in the evening, but the Host was able to accommodate us by having a person meet/greet us there to hand over the keys. (We provided a small tip as a thank you). Location-wise wise the apartment to get to the promenade was a short walk (down via 188 steps - given the location to be expected) or you could take a short, much flatter walk taking a slightly longer 5/walk to the end of the road and back round. The promenade takes you all around Lapad beach, and there are lots of restaurants and shops for a range of tastes, with plenty of places to sit as well and watch the world go by. The beach is cobbled, but plenty of space to sit out and go for a swim to cool down. The bus stop to the Old Town is 250m from the apartment at the end of the road, you can get tickets from the kiosk or purchase a Dubronvik pass online before you come (it only activates when you first use it). The number 6 runs every 15 minutes from 6 am to midnight so it was never long to wait. The ride was a short 10 minutes ride, it would be walkable in about 45-60 minutes for those wanting to stretch their legs.

Brilliant stay at Villa Katrina! The location is fantastic and the views are incredible. Around a 50 minute stroll to the Old Town (about €6-7 in an uber) and about €28 in an uber from the airport. Apartment itself was great, all the amenities you would need and a supermarket a 5 minute walk away for any essentials. Bed was comfy, my only marginal complaint was that the shower cubicle is really small, but again that’s just a personal gripe. Would hands down recommend to anyone to stay there, purely for the views across Lapad Beach. Thank you!
Shower cubicle slightly on the small side, maybe 2 more pillows too.

The views from the balcony are stunning, that’s why we chose these apartments and the convenience of the little pool, which was a welcome relief after the climb back up the steps after a day on the beach. The location is really lovely and you have everything you need nearby, it’s peaceful and quiet and the apartments are decorated tastefully, lovely and clean and contain everything you need for a short stay. Thanks for making our stay enjoyable, definitely recommend.
Just due to the heat, so not a reflection on the property but the hike up especially was a lot in the heat and even getting to the nearest supermarket with shopping was a lot. The checkout time was quite early, but the apartments are beautiful and so well maintained.

I like the apartments and the swimming pool. It was a small swimming pool but very practical and efficient to get quickly refreshed.
The location is up a hill with a lot of steps from the street to access ou street. It is definitely not suitable for elderly people or the less active. If you have small kids and buggy ..note that the way down and up to the beach will be a sweaty journey 😅(unless you have a car, but car park are limited around this area as well)... That was why the swimming pool is a must have for this accommodation!

Thee view is magnificent.
The staff were mean and grumpy, and the owner, the meanest of them all, didn't want me to use the pool or to give me a receipt at the end of my stay.. In addition, he wouldn't allow me even 5 minutes grace time to check out.

THE VIEW WAS STUNNING FROM THE APARTMENT. WE DIDNT USE THE POOL ALTHOUGH IT WAS VERY SMALL LOACATION WAS GOOD ALTHOUGH THE FASTESR WAY DOWN TO THE MAIN STRIP WAS VIA 190 STEPS SO NOT SUITABLE FOR UNFIT OR PEOPLE WITH WALKING DIFFICULTIES. FACILITIES WERE VERY GOOD ALTHOUGH AN OVEN WOULD HAVE BEEN NICE PLUS PROPER SUN LOUNGERS
PROPER SUN LOUNGERS POSSIBLY MORE COMFY CHAIRS ON THE BALCONY
