Boat rental
I would really recommend taking a private boat or a sailboat for a day and have skipper take you to our beautiful islands. They also take you to see some caves, and interested places you can not reach on foot while on the island. This is a great way to spend a day. We have several options to recommend and book for you that our previous guests decided upon, and were really satisfied. Sailboat, speed boat, full or half day or panorama tour.

Cómo moverse
Getting arround
Local bus is really good type of transportation in Dubrovnik. You have a bus stop to and from the city on the right hand side from the house, 5 min walking distance. Buses 1A and 1B go every 15 min, and go till midnight or 2 am depending on the month, you would need to check. Bus ticket price is 15kuna per person per way, and it would take you approximately 20 minutes to get to the Old city, depending on traffic.
If you are with the car, I would not suggest going to the Old City by one, due to lack of parking spaces and high price if you find one.
