My wife and I spent part of our honeymoon in Croatia. When we arrived on a ferry from Italy we had no reservations, Ivo and his wife were at the port and asked us if we needed a place to stay. It was a little more expensive than we were looking for, but since it was inside the city walls... more

We stayed at Rooms Ivo in July 2008. We contacted him about a week before arriving and he said he had an airconditioned room with a private washroom for 60 Euros. We wrote back and said we'd take it and gave him our arrival details. He was waiting for us when our bus arrived (nice touch), but instead of going... more

We stayed with Ivo twice in June 2008. The first time we stayed in a room in his aunt's house, the second time a room in his family's house. Both are exceptionally located in the closest street outside the old city walls. There are two entrances into the old city less than 100m from the houses. The room at the... more

Ivo and family picked us up from the bus station, carefully lettered sign in hand. He was so proud of that sign. His affable nature and enthusiasm were the themes of our stay there. As others have noted before, you stay in his house, with his family, and Boobie, the family Pekingese-ish dog, which gives you an insight into everyday... more

I recently stayed at Ivo's Rooms in Dubrovnik for 4 nights. Ivo and his family are friendly and open to their guests. The location is excellent, but very quiet. The room and bathrooms are clean, no complaint. I think it is one of the best places if you want to see how Croatians live and talk to them. Ivo welcomes... more

No recommended... We recently stayed here for two non-consecutive nights. The location was just outside the city walls to old Dubrovnik. Ivo picked us us from the airport for about the same rate as a taxi would charge. If you email/call Ivo months/weeks/etc. in advance he doesn't actually hold a room for you. The first night we were staying there... more

Ivo and his wife met us at the bus station, and made us feel very welcome. We were given the room without the balcony and ensuite bathroom at first, which wasn't a big problem but we had booked months in advance for the room with an ensuite bathroom and balcony. Ivo was very apologetic and we got the room we'd... more

My sister and I stay with Ivo, his wife Vesna and his family in May and had a fantastic time. Ivo is one of the most positive people we've ever met and he really made our time in Dubrovnik a special experience. We stayed in the balcony room with the ensuite bathroom which was very spacious and spotlessly clean. The... more

We met Ivo at the bus station in Dubronik, and he offered us an apartment within the walls, with A/C, for about $80US/night. He gave us a ride into the city, and the apartment was perfect. 1 bedroom with bath, and a small kitchen and living room area. It also had a small balcony. It was exceptionally clean, the bed... more
