Basic clean room, good bed, close to beach, friendly owners. Things that could improve is the foul sewer smell from the bathroom, AC unit did not work well to cool off the unit, not many places to hang clothes, kettle needs cleaning, would be nice to have some coffee cups/plates/bowls/utensils.

The property is comfortable and in a great area - only a short walk to the beach, which is down the front steps. The beach is quite, secluded, away from the tourist hotspots but equally, if not, nicer. The hosts were lovely and very helpful.

Very dissppointed in the stay at this property. Would never come back. I booked with expedia 2 queen beds an apartment of fair size of 500 sq feet. not only did i not get 2 queen beeds nor fair size apartnent opposite double bed and a sofa bed with the room being around 300 sq feet very small. When i asked the property owner she stated we dont have sonething like that. Well then why am i paying for sonething i didnt ask for. Whether the listing wrong on expedia website or inaccuracy of the property owner shame on both of them.

Villa Doris is pleasantly cute, its located off the main road to Dubrovnik depending on which way you travel. Rosa, the owner, is awesome although there is a very small language barrier. Its a 1 minute walk to the bay which has a pleasent beach and a small restaurant. It is a very basic self catering apartment and if you're travelling on a budget, its worth the money. Thank you for your time Rosa.

Rosa and her husband were excellent hosts. They even offered to drive us to the market so we wouldn’t walk in the heat. They were right there and assisted us when needed. There were ample kitchen accessories, a stovetop and microwave, but no shampoo, conditioner, or soap bar in the bathroom. The beds were very comfortable and there were extra blankets. The view of the sea was amazing.

Very clean, close to a beach, walking distance to a couple of good restaurants, 2 minute drive to a supermarket, free parking onsite. A few minutes drive to Dubrovnik (but you may want to use Uber if available -- parking in Dubrovnik is crazy expensive). Most important -- we were arriving late (after 10 PM_ and Roza waited to welcome us upon arrival. We truly appreciate that.

Great value, lovely beach, September break.
Basic and suited our "quick get away" needs. Our room was not self-catering although mysteriously had a kettle and microwave but obviously no cups, dishes or sink to do anything with them. There was a proper fridge which was great for cold beers in the evening. No sea view from our room and was a bit dark, but we were out most of the time anyway. There is no shop or bank in this little enclave and its a good 30 minute walk to next town so be prepared to stock up on fridge essentials when you do shop and bring cash as the nearest cash machine had run out of money and we had to wait until Dubrovnik. The hosts were friendly enough and got an offer of a lift to the nearby town to shop but it was never followed up. I think by the end of the season they were worn out. The people that own this apartment also own the pizza place round the corner - head straight up the stairs to get a sea view. Apart from that, great value and great pizza! Thanks guys.

Villa Doris was great
The owners were so hospitable and made sure we had what we needed. Our room was close to the beach and was very clean. The restaurant that is owned by the family had great food. Make sure you try one of Tony's fresh mint juleps. I would sure recommend Villa Doris to everyone, the beach was a great place for families.

I know we visited in the off season BUT...
The hotel staff was friendly, and the location was good BUT we had to call a few times and ring the bell several times for someone to let us in at around 6pm. I know we visited during the off season, but since we made a reservation, we expected someone to be there to give us a key to our room. The electricity went out our first morning there, and it just felt like we had a lot of bad luck. And, a staff member kept asking me for cash instead of honoring my credit card through Expedia until I just said I refused to go withdrawal so much cash, and they finally ran my card.

Overall good experience
Short distance from Dubrovnik but perfect quaint little town with small restaurant on the water. Upon arrival it was difficult to locate where the office actually was to check in but owner found us. Very friendly, accommodating and large and clean apartment. Bring your shampoo, conditioner and soap as they did not provide. Also did not provide dishtowels for drying dishes as there really isn't space to let them dry etc.. Kitchen was very awkward and less than ideal but we made it work.

Great apartment at a good value
The apartment is great and the price is good. There is very good parking which was key for us. The location is probably ideal for the beach time of year. We were there in the off season so a 10 minute drive into the old city was required.

Very comfortable!
We really enjoyed our stay. The beach is rocky as are most of them in the area but it was just a 2 minute walk away and the water is wonderful. Rosa, the owner, was very pleasant and the room was spotless and comfortable. We have two minor complaints. It's very hard to find when you're not familiar with the area. We finally called Hotels.com for help. Somewhere in the listing they should give you clear directions. Also Rosa should give everyone a map and some direction for things when they arrive. We got help from her but always had to ask. The next night we stayed in Montenegro and the woman has everything laid out about the "old town" and e-mailed us before our arrival to give us directions. Wonderful!
