To reach our villa, you can enter Dubrovnik Old Town through Pile Gate or through Buža Gate. If entering through Pile Gate, there will be stairs uphill. This is why we strongly recommend you to enter Dubrovnik Old Town through Buža Gate. There will be just a couple of stairs uphill and then another couple downhill. Not a big deal, even with the luggage. 

As you will soon learn, taking stairs up and down the charming little streets of Dubrovnik Old Town is part of the experience. This is how people are doing it for centuries around here and we recommend you doing the same. Stroll along the narrow streets, explore, get lost, get found, enjoy the rich history of this amazing city. You’ll find Sponza Palace just a few minutes walk away, Stradun street is even closer. Onofrio’s Fountain is just below our villa, as well as many shops, restaurants and bars. Banje beach is less than 15 minutes walk away. The nearest airport is Dubrovnik Airport, 19 km from the property.
