Description

Villa Petrosa is a perfect blend of past and present, and is a fine example of local, middle-class architecture. Originally part of a 19th century merchant's house, this Villa has been given a sensitive restoration to show its unique character. We have dedicated ourselves to designing a modern, comfortable and luxurious accommodation with an historic and educational touch.

Whether you are looking forward to a romantic holiday, an annual family trip, or simply want to enjoy the beautiful Dubrovnik region with its wonderful architecture and food, Villa Petrosa is perfectly located and will allow you to recharge your batteries and nourish your body and soul. Beautiful private beach with parking place is provided for guests of this Villa in small fisherman's place Molunat 10 km away.
Villa is located in the village of Gruda, the center of the Konavle region, just 10 km from Dubrovnik International Airport, and close to many attractions. An excellent bus service connects you to anywhere you want to go (6am to 9pm). (We also offer an option of villa + car rental.)

Banks, post office, bus station, grocery stores, doctor, café bars, green market, fish market, pharmacy, hairdresser, etc. are a few minutes' walking distance from the apartment.
