Dubrovnik is the most well known destination of the Dalmatian Riviera with its famous medieval walled town, but there are many other beautiful and interesting places within easy reach by boat or bus.
Lokrum island, a UNESCO protected site, which houses the ruins of a former monastery and fort, plus a restaurant and plenty of secluded beaches, is a fifteen minute boat ride away from the Old Town harbour.
Cavtat, a picturesque village, set around a harbour, is about 50 minutes boat ride from the old harbour or 20 minute bus drive. It has lots of harbour side cafes, rocky and pebble beaches, and pleasant, waterside walks.
Elafiti islands are really a perfect getaway from city crowds. The most popular islands are Kolocep, Lopud and Šipan and are also the only inhabited islands. Daily departure from the old harbour or from Gruž harbour.
Mljet Island is famous for its natural beauty and the west part is a National park. The park is definitely worth a trip. Daily departure from Gruž harbour.
Peljesac Peninsula is well known for its wines. The whole peninsula is covered with dense evergreen and Mediterranean vegetation. We recommend a stop at Ston, famous for its shellfish restaurants -the best in the region- which offer oysters as a speciality.
We provide our guests all useful information to make your stay a relaxing and enjoyable one!

From beginning to end, my friends and I had a brilliant time at The Bougainvilliers. We were met at the airport by a driver and driven to Dubrovnik for a very reasonable fee. We were taken straight to meet Viktor, and he took us to the apartment. He was SO friendly, even helping us with our bags up the steps to the apartment (the only minor complaint we had, but we were fully aware of this when we rented the apartment so we can't be too annoyed!). He gave us great local knowledge too and took the time to introduce us to the area. The apartment was spacious, two bedrooms were air-conditioned (which was great during a heat wave), the third didnt but there were two free-standing fans for use in the apartment so that was fine. The pool was SUCH A LUXURY in Dubrovnik. We were there for a wedding and we were the envy of all the other guests who were having to take on the steps to get to the beaches for a cooling swim. I would go back to the bougainvilliers in a heartbeat. It was reasonably priced, and it was everything we needed and more. It wasnt luxurious, but then wasn't sold or priced as a luxury property. We could not have been made more welcome and there was nothing any more that we could have wanted during our stay. FIVE STARS! |
Guestbook for The Bougainvilliers
"The Bougainvilliers Apartment is a great apartment located just outside the Old Town of Dubrovnik. Dubrovnik is a very hilly town and as long as you can walk up steps access is not a problem. The location is really quiet at night but with easy access to the restaurants and bars.The apartment is well furnished and has plenty of kitchen utensils for food and drinks. The pool is a great way to cool down after the heat in the summer and would be ideal for kids. The transfer from the airport is really easy to get to the apartment and we were met by Viktor who helped with our luggage. We would recommend the apartment for both familys and small groups. Many thanks!” Matt, August 2011
" We really enjoyed our visit to Dubrovnik, and will definitely come back. The town is superb in every way - architecturaly, historically, touristically - , and the coast and its archipeligo of islands utterly beautiful. The aparment was just great. It was neat and tidy inside, and outside the terrace was always in the sun, but with shady corners to retreat to if necessary, and with plenty of loungers and garden chairs. The pool was perfect for our family. When we looked down on the apartment from the top of the cable car journey, we could see how lucky we were to have found an aparmtnet with a swimming pool.The information on the website was fair and accurate, and the practical information in the apartment had really good ideas for activities. We took up one of them - an excursion to Mostar - and would recommnd that to other visitors. The transfer to the apartment worked perfectly, and prior to that the booking experience was flawless. If you did not have a budget to eat out a lot, the impracticality of climbing steps in the heat with a lot of groceries every day might be a problem, but we did mostly eat out so had no problem with the steps. Overall, I would recommend a stay in the Bougainvilliers apartment and we hope to come back one day. Thanks for a holiday we'll never forget." Brendan, August 2011

" The service from Victor was excellent he was very welcoming and very helpful through out our stay. Transfer excellent and the overal apartment was ok. We enjoyed our holiday!!" Glen, July 2011
" Dear Isabelle and Viktor -First, there aren't enough adjectives to describe Dubrovnik which has to be one of the world's most beautiful cities and best-kept secret. Our family's stay ( two grandparents, two adult children and a 9-month old baby) at The Bougainvilliers apartment was perfect. From our earliest communication with you during the reservation process; through the complicated airport pick-up and transfer of all of our stuff with 2 different arrivals and a late plane - everything went unbelievably smoothly. Viktor's "hands-on" help and his valuable advice on what to see, what times to visit and where to eat; coupled with Butterfly Services responsiveness and personalized service, was exactly what was needed . OKay...96 steps up to the Bougainvillers apartment wasn't the easiest climb, but the spectacular view of the blue Adriatic, the red tiled roofs and the old city from the huge wrap-around terrace, made it all worthwhile. The pool was heavenly and the apartment had everything we could possibly want. We've told everyone we know to visit Dubrovnik and contact you to make their trip the best it could be. And of course - with any luck - we'll be back!! Myrna and Trevor (Charlotte, NC) Daniel, Helen and baby Zach (Belfast, Northern Ireland), June 2011
“Dear Isabelle & Viktor, thank you for a wonderful stay at The Bougainvilliers Apartment. The accommodation was spacious, clean and excellently located. The view from the bedrooms and the large terrace was spectacular. We enjoyed the convenience of being so close to the city while the area was very peaceful. The transfer to and from the airport was so convenient and thank you Viktor for all your information and warm welcome. We would definitely recommend this apartment and your services to our friends and relatives and hopefully we will see you again”. Susan, October 2010
“We did have a wonderful time thanks – the Bougainvilliers apartment and setting were lovely and Dubrovnik is very beautiful. The arrangements all ran very smoothly and efficiently and it was nice to meet Victor – you were both very helpful. Hoping to be back in Dubrovnik one day”. Janice & Caroline, August 2010
" Dear Isabelle & Victor. Thank you for making our stay in Dubrovnik such a pleasant one. We were generally very happy with the Bougainvilliers apartment - The transfer was very good - very well organised. Information received - very good. It was very reassuring to be able to talk to you during the booking process. Overall we had a great time - This has been a very enjoyable holiday and one we will recommend to others. Many thanks to you both. We look forward to seeing you again some time in the future!" Lewis, August 2010
" We had a great week at the Bougainvilliers. The villa was clean and bright and just right for our needs. We felt the kitchen could have been a little better equipped, but no complaint really. Upon arrival we were very glad that Viktor helped us with the suitcases (and upon departure too). He was very kind and helpful. It was a shame that we weren't aware that you don't need a car in Dubrovnik, as we lost some money that way. But we absolutely loved Dubrovnik and the villa was perfect for our family.I am looking forward to returning one day and am interested in your other properties. Many thanks.» Jacqui, August 2010
" We had a great time thank you. The Bougainvilliers apartment was excellently located, clean and comfortable and suited us well. The booking procedure was smooth and everything happened, airport pick up, meeting at the apartment etc in a professional and well-handled manner. We took up most of Viktor's restaurant and activities advice (other than the Elafantisi Islands, which we will do next time). Dubrovnik was an excellent host and we will definitely visit Croatia and the region again". Thanks, Phil. July 2010
"We had a wonderful time in Dubrovnik, and couldn't have chosen a better apartment - so close to the Old City, and with the added bonus of a pool! Thanks to you both for helping us with our stay - Victor's welcome was warm and most informative! His advice was very good - especially about avoiding the busy periods in town.
The apartment was excellent - spacious, and with everything that we needed. We were very comfortable. The air conditioning was very useful, though we didn't have to run it too much. Once again, thanks for allowing us to stay in your lovely city! The seafood was delicious, and the ambience superb - it was a special place for our daughter to get married, and we had a memorable time! Best of luck in the future - we will recommend you and th city to all of our friends!" Paul, July 2010
“We had a really great holiday in Dubrovnik & we were really impressed with the apartment. The location was perfect & facilities were exactly what we needed. The decor was tasteful & simple & the apartment was obviously kept clean & in a good condition. The transfers worked perfectly & it was really good to know that we didn't have to worry about bothering with taxis - especially as there were 6 of us. All the information we received both before we arrived & when we checked in was very helpful. Steve did mention that he didn't think the map on your website did the apartment justice in terms of location. It seems to show the apartment as being a bit further out. It was only when he checked on googlemap that he realised how close to the old town it was. Service in general was very good & it was nice to arrive to friendly faces & a warm welcome (not to mention help with the luggage up all those steps). We would definitely come back to Croatia & would recommend Dubrovnik as a great place to visit - either for a week holiday like we did or for a long weekend. If anyone we know is planning to visit Dubrovnik we'd be more than happy to recommend Bougainvilliers to them. Thank you for helping to make our holiday so memorable!” Claire, July 2010
“We all immensely enjoyed our holiday in Dubrovnik, the accommodation you provided us with was extremely spacious, clean and Viktor was very welcoming on our arrival. The beds were very comfortable, and the pool, bathrooms and kitchen were immaculate. The information given on the website was very clear and useful and our expectations were met when we arrived, the pictures of the villa were especially helpful in getting across the size and layout of the villa. The booking procedure was very fast and both Isabella and Viktor were extremely good at keeping in contact up until we arrived in Dubrovnik. The tourist information Viktor gave us on the first day there was most helpful and enlightening, we would not have found many of the supermarkets without Viktor's help. The folder in the Bougainvilliers villa for good restaurants was also an extreme help to those that are unfamiliar with Dubrovnik. Overall we had an amazing time and would recommend booking a villa or apartment with Viktor and Isabelle to anyone considering a trip to Dubrovnik. Thank you very much for your attention to detail and ensuring we had a wonderful trip! Many thanks again”. Alexandra, June 2010
"We loved our visit to Dubrovnik and Croatia. Bougainvilliers is a lovely home away from home. We enjoyed meeting you. You were very helpful in many areas. Thank you for everything." Karen, August 2009
"Thank you for all your help, attention and caring while we were in Dubrovnik. We had a wonderful time and would not hesitate to contact you again for a return trip to the area." Craig, August 2009
"We stayed in your Bougainvilliers apartment from the 19-26th August. The apartment was beautiful, very clean and had everything we needed. Viktor gave us a very warm welcome and the information he gave us when we arrived was fantastic. The location was perfect. We had a brilliant stay thank you". Jennifer, August 2009
"We had an excellent time in Dubrovnik and are extremely sad to be home in cold, wet Belfast!! I We would certainly recommend the Bougainvilliers to anyone visiting Dubrovnik. Firstly, Viktor was extremely helpful throughout the booking process and in the months thereafter (I sent him many many emails!). The website pictures did not do the apartment justice and were very pleasantly surprised when we saw it. The location was ideal for us, although bringing our cases up the 96 steps was not ideal! However, this was a minor inconvenience and certainly did not overshadow the beauty of the place. The accommodation was clean and comfortable, the only minor complaint was that the shower in the smaller en suite was very poor and some of girls complained that it sprayed everywhere! Having a pool was definitely one of the highlights of the apartment – especially on the very hot days. The information pack left in the apartment was very useful, especially when choosing where to eat. All in all we had an excellent experience using Butterfly services and Viktor was extremely helpful throughout. I would not hesitate to return to the Bougainvilliers and very much look forward to visiting again in the future". Emma, August 2009
"We had a fantastic week and the Bougainvilliers apartment was lovely, very clean and comfortable. Your booklet of info was really useful and the ease of taxis back and forth and Viktor being there on arrival and departure made everything very easy and of course, very friendly & welcoming. Everything was described as per the website so there were no surprises apart from it being so much prettier than it looked in the photos! I think your website photos don’t show how lovely the terrace and pool are – I don’t remember there being pot plants etc in the pictures, they don’t do it justice, you should take some more photos! I will definitely recommend you to friends and family. Thanks for a lovely stay" .Vanessa, July 2009
"We were really impressed with the accommodation Bougainvilliers (it actually looked better in real life than on the web!) The rooms were clean and comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked for home cooking. The location was also ideal. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone who was too unfit or old, but for me it was great. Viktor was amazing!! We did pretty much everything he suggested and it was really nice to get a local point of view. It was also good to hear how to get around without paying for expensive cruises etc. You were also great at replying to my emails when I had queries so I really couldn’t fault your communications. Everything was great. I have already recommended you to colleagues!". Amy, July 2009
"We greatly enjoyed our time at the Bougainvilliers apartment and found all the facilities very good. We enjoyed ourselves and would definitely come back again. Many Thanks". Richard, July 2009
"We were very happy with the Bougainvilliers apartment in Dubrovnik. The apartment was lovely and had everything that we needed. It was great to have taxi's arranged for arrival and departure. We found you very helpful. Finally, Dubrovnik is a gorgeous city and we had a lovely holiday. Thank you". Jeanne, June 2009
