Villa Orsula Dubrovnik | Best places to stay in Dubrovnik | Bucket List Travels

"Originally built as a private villa in 1930’s (hence the Art Deco details), this 13-room boutique hotel treats guests like respected friends. Set in an exquisite terraced garden, planted with orange trees, pines and fragrant lavender – from here, winding steps lead down to a bathing platform with sun-beds by the sea. You’ll feel truly privileged, breakfasting on the vine-covered terrace, with views of Dubrovnik’s medieval walls across the water. At sunset, dine on Peruvian fusion cuisine, or sip cocktails at the garden lounge-bar, which also hosts occasional live jazz. This is the most upmarket quarter of town, offering a unique mix of quiet streets, wonderful views of Dubrovnik and an easy ten-minute stroll into the centre of town. " - Jane Foster
