Apartments Villa Riva

Vila Riva is a clean, spacious building with an ideal setting right on the small harbour with a quiet pool area that has a beautiful Mountain View complete with swifts flying overhead, what’s not to love! We stayed the end of June into July for a week, in apartment 1, that has two bedrooms on the ground floor with easy access to the pool. It’s cool with great adjustable air con, it has a dishwasher (but if you like to wash dishes by hand bring a teatowel) and has all the basics you’d need. The pool area is clean, lovely and cool and for most of the week we had it to ourselves (no 9am sun bed fights to be had here!) The staff are very polite and helpful (they are usually about in the mornings), the company that runs the apartment booked our airport transfers and were very easy to communicate with and helped with the transfers when our flight was diverted for 3 hours due to wind! The Vila is next to a small shop, there’s another supermarket further into the village aswell as a few gift shops and a yummy bakery. Slano has a few good restaurants, including a pizzeria in the grounds of the Admiral Hotel, there’s also two restaurants around the bay to the right in the next village (about a scenic 15 min walk). We’d also recommend the narrow shingle beach past the marina to the left of the bay, beautiful clean waters for snorkelling and swimming….. tip- bring watershoes as it’s stoney underfoot and there’s sea urchins further round on the rocks. The no12 bus goes every few hours into Dubrovnik, we used it twice (hop off two stops before the end for the Old Town) and we enjoyed the local boat trip around the islands that can be booked from outside Vila Riva on the harbour side. We’d really recommend these apartments as they are clean, quiet and a great base to explore this gorgeous area.

Lovely accommodation, our apartment was fantastic, everything we needed and more. Perfect location, very peaceful and easy access by bus to Dubrovnik for a day trip. Reception staff were great, very friendly and helpful, would definitely recommend staying here.

Great property, next to sea and center of small village. Very comfortable and well equipped apartment, nice staff, very well organised, easy check in/out. Privat parking on property, lovely swiming pool. All in all very nice place, worth to try this tranquil spot.

A fabulously clean appartment with all amenities.....extremely well equipped and lovely complementary bathroom toiletries. At the back of the villa there are beautiful grounds and a swimming pool. Easy walking distance to restsurants. Atm and small supermarkets. Would thoroughly recommend
