Notes on accommodation
The air conditioning system allows for efficient heating and cooling.
The apartment is set on the first floor, but is in the lower part of the city, so its minimal steps (38) means it is suitable for both children and older visitors. There are some toys and children's dvds provided.
As well as a washing machine, drying rack and ironing facilities, there is a washing line, accessible from the apartment's bedroom windows, for drying washing.

Outside
There is no outside space but with the cafe culture of the old town on your doorstep you don't need it.
Coast/Beach
Dubrovnik Old Town's pebble and sand beach is a 10 minute stroll from the apartment. In high season, the beach is split into two: one side has sunbeds and parasols (which you pay for), the other side has no such facilities, but is free. There is a smart beach bar and restaurant, with toilets and beachside shower. There are other beaches within easy reach - just 10 minutes away, either by local boat or bus. Full details are available in the apartment.
Travel
Dubrovnik International airport is a scenic, 20 minute drive away. Scheduled flights are met by a local bus to the Old Town for around £3.50, or you can take a taxi from the airport, which costs around £20 to the Old Town. The nearest port is Gruz (Dubrovnik's modern harbour), and you can take boats to many of Croatia's islands and Bari, in Italy. Gruz is a short taxi/bus ride from the Old Town. If much of your visit is to be spent in and around Dubrovnik, you will not need to hire a car.
Distances
Lokrum island, a UNESCO protected site, which houses the ruins of a former monastery and fort, plus a restaurant and plenty of secluded beaches, is a fifteen minute boat ride away - take the boat from the Old Town harbour.
Cavtat, a picturesque village, set around a harbour, is about 50 minutes boat ride from the harbour. It has lots of harbourside cafes, rocky and pebble beaches, and pleasant, waterside walks.
The Elafiti islands are great for day trips - take a boat from the old harbour.
Further details
The nearest supermarket to the apartment is two minutes' walk away, and there are numerous butchers, bakers, fishmongers, off licences, restaurants, cafes, bars nearby, too. We have a list of recommended places in the apartment, most of which are set in the charming, pedestrianised walkways and squares of the famous Old Town.
There are many banks and cashpoints within the old town, as well as a main post office.
Local shops include lots of high class shoe and clothes stores, there are numerous galleries, selling both paintings and sculpture, souvenir and bookshops. There is also a cinema within the old city.
