Safe Family Villa. Sea Views, Walled Garden, Pool Jacuzzi, Badminton TableTennis
Successfully agency rented for over 10 years, this is one of Cavtat's only original Arts and Craft 1920’s summer house. The villa is very special as it was built and owned by an English lady and her local husband - they were said to have been friends with King Edward V111 and Wallace Simpson who apparently stayed with them in this house during their whirl wind tour of the Dalmatian Coast in the 1930’s! The house has been host to some other very distinguished guests and during it’s time between the 2 world wars, famous visitors to visit include; George Bernard Shaw, Hilaire Beloc and Sidney and Beatrice Webb. It has been lovingly restored by its new owners into a warm and friendly family home and is furnished with some lovely old pieces especially brought over from England.
The villa has very spacious accommodation and is ideal for 2 families or a group. The panoramic balcony views make waking up in the morning a joy and the terrace in the garden is a lovely spot to enjoy at any time of the day or evening. There is also a separate ‘little house’ – this used to be the servants cottage and is now a studio apartment.
The walled garden is lush with Mediterranean plants and flowers and enjoys a very secluded position. Floranneve boasts a large pool and there is a summer kitchen/BBQ area for al-fresco dining for those balmy summer evenings. There is also the `moroccan' outside sitting room which is a wonderful area to snooze and read in the shade during those warm afternoons. Table tennis, badminton and other outdoor games are on hand for extra amusement. And the house is just a 5 minute walk to the sea - with its waterfront bars, cafes, shops and restaurants – Floranneve's location is ideal. Cavtat is loved by all who visit – a real ‘gem’ of a harbour, unspoiled and full of history, where freshly caught seafood and delicious local wines are on offer at great local restaurants and bars, Picturesque coves surround the the village peninsular and beautiful narrow little streets make up the water front 1700's architecture.
Cavtat is famous for its great water’s edge cafe bars, restaurants and local shops.. You will be spoiled for choice!
Cavtat is 10 minutes from Dubrovnik airport and about 20 minutes from Dubrovnik Old Town and apart from being beautifully scenic, the area has something for everyone - local activities include swimming, shallow-water and deep-sea fishing, sailing, motor boating, scuba diving, snorkeling, walking, mountain biking, horse riding, tennis, wakeboarding, water-skiing and lots of sea side activities.

Amazing stay in Floranneve, Cavaat
Our family of 10 have just spent a fantastic two weeks in this wonderful house in Cavtat. Simply beautiful house and gardens with a lovely pool and Jacuzzi. It is very close to the town town centre, restaurants and some great swimming spots and if you ever need anything else to keep the family entertained Bozo the property manager is able to help arrange all sorts of activities. Couldn't recommend it more highly, the combination of Floranneve, Cavtat and Bozo made our vacation superb!

Stunning property/location/excellent outside spaces for shade, dining. Large Pool/Astro badminton
A perfect destination, Cavtat has fabulous peninsula walks with stunning views. Fresh market fish and plenty of restaurants. The harbour is lively with super yachts and plentiful ferries to Dubrovnik. There are numerous places for swimming and paddle boarding /kayaking. Everything is here.
The house is private, quiet and has views of the sea from the top balcony. The kitchen is very well kitted out, bright and light and leads out to a dining table under cover. The outside spaces of this property are stunning, a gloriette/summer house in the garden and large BBQ and dining area. The swimming pool is large and there are lots of sun loungers and swing seats around it. The addition of the jacuzzi was a really lovely luxury as was the astro badminton court which was used daily along with the table tennis. The bedrooms are all clean and comfortable,and on the whole easy to feel at home with however the upper master suite could do with changing it's African theme to a more generic holiday bright room! Then it would be deserving of 5 stars. The house manager for this property was outstanding in every way,even helping with BBQ and some fishing! The short steep hill up to this property was needed after eating and drinking too much! A wonderful holiday,that is set up for relaxing and exercise in equal part! The Hotel Croatia is so close and has a fabulous restaurant and facilities.which is fun to visit and surprisingly quiet for it 487 bedrooms even when it is full! Stunning Floranneve gives you peace and space with the 10/10 location to enjoy everything in Cavtat.

Fantastic holiday home
My family and I spent a week in this fabulous home. I chose it because of its location but it offers so much more. It was so well stocked of all those little thing you miss from home....lots and lots of crockery, insect repellent, salt, pepper, 2 fridge freezers, well stocked utility, lots and lots of pool towels etc etc. It’s also lots of different beautiful areas of the sucluded garden to give everyone their own space.
But the best thing of all it came with Bozo and his family right next door and it was like your very own concierge. Nothing was to much trouble for him to sort out for you.
I highly recommend this home and we with definitely be back.

Stunning 1920s summer house
Had an incredible time in this stunning property. Situated in a secluded area in the hills above the pretty village Cavtat. Huge and elegantly decorated, the house has excellent amenities. Wonderful swimming pool, badminton court and table tennis. Cavtat is a quiet and elegant village with good range of restaraunts and watersports. Close to Dubrovnik, and possible for day trip to Montenegro. Was very sad to leave

Lovely house, great grounds, pool and gazebo. Very well equipped. Excellent house manager.
Stylish, well-furnished, older house. Very private garden and large pool. Lots of outside games to use including badminton and table tennis. Airconditioning in little house and roof suites. Fans in other rooms. Comfortable beds. Thoughtful details like British socket adapters and hairdryer. All kitchen/utility room white goods you need.Lots of garden and pool furniture and a delightful outside room/gazebo and large bbq area. Very convenient location close to airport and cavtat centre. Downside of this is being under the flight path so you have to stop talking in the garden when a plane going over but not many planes and we adjusted quickly. Some disco noise from the town a couple of evenings but mostly very peaceful. A good choice of restaurants in the town - superb food at Bugenvila - a great seaside location at Rokotin - sound recommendations from villa owner. Best lamb ever out of town at konoba vinica monkovic. Villa manager is actually an ecological scientist but looks after the house through the summer - very helpful and nice. Ferried us around in his boat and car and arranged bookings for us. Lovely family too - allowed us to use the pool and the little house on check out day as we had a late flight home. I would go back like a shot and I think any group who would respect the property would love it - kids, friends etc. Not ok for wheelchairs. I use a stick and it was fine for me; I used the little house and side routes to pool and kitchen entrance so only 3-5 steps at a time. Parking in cavtat is pay for but fine. Centre pedestrianised as is Dubrovnik so we took a lightweight travel wheelchair for getting around when I needed it. The house manager took us to the top of the cable car which we rode into Dubrovnik; we took the ferry back. Avoided traffic in Dub which is supposed to be bad. Having said which we never hit queues getting around inc dub bus station and airport.

Wundervoller Rückzugsort in der Nähe von Dubrovnik
Ein liebevoll renoviertes Haus aus den 20er Jahren eingebettet in einen großen Garten der mit alten Bäumen eingewachsen ist. Der Garten bietet ein großen Pool sowie ein Kunstrasenfeld für Volleyball oder Badminton. Der Hafen und das Zentrum des kleinen charmanten Ortes Cavtat ist 500 Meter entfernt. Praktisch: Vom Hafen kann man in 30 Minuten nach Dubrovnik fahren.
