Overview
Just 10m away from the sea, the spectacular Villa Blago enjoys an enviable location away from the crowds of Dubrovnik’s centre. The superb Adriatic outlook is just one of the attractions of this modern 6-bedroom villa, which also comes with a sauna and private pool.
Pretty olive groves, beaches and useful amenities are all close by at Villa Blago. The house has excellent outdoor facilities itself, including the heated pool, sun terrace and a covered dining and lounge area. A separate terrace area on the upper level enjoys an elevated view out to sea and to the green hills across the water.
From here, there is direct access to the main living area which enjoys both a fine view and lots of natural light. You have a sleek kitchen, dining space and a large, comfortable seating area. You’ll find HDTV, internet and air conditioning, along with everything you need in the kitchen – Villa Blago includes a dishwasher, coffee machine and lots more.
There are plenty of ways to entertain yourselves, with a barbecue, fitness and games room, while unwinding is a real treat in the amazing sauna cabin or spacious hot tub. When it’s time to rest, the villa offers five well-appointed bedrooms, complemented by six bathrooms, including a corner bath in the master en suite. There are two king rooms, two queen rooms and one room with twin beds. Modern, fresh décor and high-quality furnishings can be found throughout this attractive villa.
Situated in the Gornje Obuljeno area around 10km from the centre of Dubrovnik, Villa Blago is within 100m of local shops and amenities, while restaurants and the beach are situated in front of the property. The richly historic city has plenty of sights to see, such as the grand City Walls and busy main street, Stradun. You can take a cable car ride up a mountain, enjoy the many fine beaches which line the coast, or perhaps take a trip to nearby Trsteno’s famous arboretum.

Location
About the surrounding area of Villa BlagoAn incredible place with a fascinating past, the proud coastal city of Dubrovnik is truly stunning. Many visitors dive right in with a walk along the fortified City Walls, a 2km route which naturally offer some breath-taking views of the Adriatic. While this activity can be taxing, especially if the heat and crowds peak simultaneously, it’s surely one you will want to tick off your list.
The city boasts a number of notable palaces, monasteries and churches. The ornate Sponza Palace dates back to the 1500s and is now a popular wedding venue, having previously served as a customs house, bank and the state treasury. The slightly older Rector’s Palace now houses the Cultural History Museum, while the Franciscan Monastery is home to one of the oldest pharmacies in Europe, which has operated since 1391.
Various museums and galleries focus on archaeology, art and natural history, while modern day culture can be enjoyed at festivals throughout the year. The Dubrovnik Summer Festival brings live entertainment to the streets during July and August, while February sees the city’s Venetian-style carnival brimming with masked merriment.
Elegant Stradun is the street which serves as the Old Town’s beating heart. Right by the Pile Gate entrance you’ll see the eye-catching Onofrio Fountain – or, at least, the larger of two bearing this name. A second smaller fountain can be found on nearby Luza Square, where Sponza Palace is situated. The rest of Stradun is lined with restaurant terraces giving it a lively buzz in the evenings.
The city has so many historic sights it can be tricky knowing where to start, but happily there are numerous organised tours to guide you. Some have embraced a Game of Thrones theme in recent years, as a lot of the series was filmed in and around Dubrovnik. If you want the full experience, try to visit Trsteno Arboretum, Fort Lovrijenac and the isle of Lokrum – you won’t need to be a fan to appreciate them.
Finally, be sure to jump in a cable car up Mt Srd. As you ascend, you’ll get a magnificent view of all the places you’ve just visited, as well as to the nearby islands. Further out of the city, you’ll find wonderful beaches at Zaton and Orašac, and the pretty harbour town of Cavtat, all of them lovely escapes if the city gets too busy for you.

Best Suited For: All AgesDubrovnik certainly delivers for families. There’s a lot to do in and around this magnificent city. One of the most fun is the cable car ride up to the top of Mt. Srd. Much more relaxing than climbing the city’s steep hills or walking the walls, this is a great way to reward the kids after a long day. Not only for the stunning views – there’s a restaurant and gift shop waiting for them too.
Back down in the Old Town, you could always have dinner on iconic Stradun. This glorious street with an Italianate feel has plenty of restaurants and often hosts live entertainment. Prefer spending time at the beach? Banje Beach is a good family choice. located close to the centre of town. Lapad Beach is a pleasant alternative which has shallow waters, play areas and ice cream stalls, so young kids will be in their element.
A boat trip to the beautiful Elafiti Islands could also be a good option. Regular sailings will take you there, with some cruises including lunch and off-boat swimming. Not every island is accessible, but you will be able to visit the largest, Šipan, as well as Lopud and Koločep. The latter has the intriguing Blue and Green Caves – you may find that your tour stops by along the way.
Another good way to make the most of a local guide is in a buggy safari. These off-road adventures will pick you up from wherever you like and show you spectacular scenery and landmarks off the beaten track.
A good place for a family day out outside the city is Cadmos Village. This adventure park offers all sorts of activities including paintballing, archery and zip-lines. Book in advance for this popular centre which is about 30 minutes from the centre of Dubrovnik.
There are many more opportunities to experience the great outdoors. The beautiful Trsteno Arboretum has a maze that kids will love losing themselves in, alongside areas of woodland and gardens. The island of Lokrum, as a designated nature reserve, also offers the chance to explore areas of forest, botanical gardens and beaches – and you can even take a kayak tour to get there.

Exceptional
The host was amazing, she arranged up pick/drop off for us, a very professional service and gave us a quick tour on the way to the villa. Mara met us at the villa, to welcome us, gave a detailed tour off the place, she was very friendly and open to calls for anything we needed. Showed us the local shops, bus stops and places to visit while we where there. The villa was beyond expectation, great location, easy access, all rooms had enough space. Massive thumbs up !!!!

Beautiful villa close to Dubrovnik Old Town
Our experience was just great at Villa Blago. Mara and her husband are caring a lot. Very responsive and fixed minor issues directly. Thanks for the possibility to rent this great house. Hope to come back one day!

Villa as beautiful as the View!
This villa, the host and the location was everything we wanted in a girls trip! Mara was exceptional-her communication, promptness and overall commitment to our stay was top- notch. The villa had everything we needed, and the pool/outdoor kitchen area was the icing on the Croatian cake! I would highly recommend.

Stunning luxury villa with easy access to Old Town
Really nice and spacious villa for a big group. The pool is a nice cosy size and the views are spectacular. It’s about 20-30 minutes by bus to old town but Ubers aren’t that expensive and take around 15 minutes. The host was great and answered every question I had promptly. The downstairs bedrooms are quite small and don’t have much natural light but the upstairs lounge terrace and pool area outside - more than makes up for it.
Don't miss out! Reserve now and get a full refund if you change your mind within 48hrs.
