Lovely apartment, bright, clean, spacious with gorgeous views and close to beach and 3 restaurants
Had a great stay here and miss it already! Host family friendly and helpful. Put a smile on your face every morning waking up to views. Apartment had everything we needed and hosts provided parasol and a (paid) pick up from Dubrovnik when we asked and also did a load of laundry for us.
Because of the sea views, the light, and being up in the eaves I flelt like I was on a ship which was cool. Nice balcony with lounger but we did get windy evenings and there is no shade up there later on. Has good air con, kitchen, shower and dishwasher. WiFi fine once connected but had to reboot a few times.
Short distance to beach but it is down steps and not as much fun coming back up! At least you can pick figs off the trees near top of steps to sweeten climb. There are also steep steps into the apartment with no door at top and as we have kids we blocked off the top of the stairs at night with suitcase just to be safe.
Stikovica has 3 decent restaurants with good value food but doesn’t have a shop. Nearest is in Zaton but you can’t really walk the road. We used the bus but runs to its own time so switched to Uber which was easy and good value for going into Dubrovnik.
Stikovica beach is pebbly like most in area but decent size and good for swimming with sun beds and parasols available. It does get busy at weekend but quieter on week days.
Overall we were really happy with our stay here and would recommend it as a good base with beach and restaurants just outside Dubrovnik.
