Villa Lemona | 4-Bedroom Villa with Private Pool in Grad Dubrovnik

Eight guests gather on the terrace at sunset, watching the Adriatic light turn gold above Dubrovnik’s coastline. This is what Villa Lemona delivers: a four-bedroom luxury villa rental in Dubrovnik that sits within walking distance of two exceptional beaches while remaining private enough to feel like your own Dalmatian retreat. The property occupies 210 square metres across two levels, designed around the rhythms of Mediterranean living—morning coffee overlooking Lapad Bay, afternoon swims in the heated pool, evening dinners under the stars.

Inside Villa Lemona

Villa Lemona sleeps 8 guests across 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms. The ground floor opens with an expansive kitchen-dining-living zone—the kind of layout where families instinctively migrate toward the cooking while conversations flow uninterrupted. The kitchen itself comes fully equipped with professional appliances, a microwave for midnight cravings, and a coffee machine that produces espresso worth waking for. This is where guests cook, not where they pretend to. A bathroom serves the ground floor with full facilities, and immediately adjacent sits the dedicated fitness room—equipped with exercise apparatus for guests committed to maintaining their routine despite holiday temptation.

Upstairs, the sleeping accommodation divides strategically. Bedrooms 1 and 2 each feature double beds paired with ensuite bathrooms—the kind of arrangement where couples and close friends need never negotiate shower timings. Bedrooms 3 and 4 offer additional doubles without ensuite facilities, served by the shared ground-floor bathroom. All beds dress in crisp linens, and every room benefits from air conditioning units that hum quietly through warm nights. A washing machine and dryer sit ready for week-long stays, while hairdryers, toiletries, and a highchair (for guests traveling with infants) come as standard. The television functions in the main living space, though most guests find themselves gravitating toward the outdoors.

Outdoor Spaces and Living

The exterior unfolds as the villa’s true living room. A private heated swimming pool commands the centre—the kind of amenity that transforms a holiday from pleasant to transformative, extending the swimming season well into autumn and allowing morning laps before breakfast. Sunbeds flank the pool deck, and a shaded dining area stands ready for al fresco meals cooked on the terrace. A shower provides post-swim rinsing, while a fireplace creates gathering points during cooler evenings or for guests seeking to linger outside after sunset. Seating areas distribute themselves across the space, encouraging small groups to splinter off for conversations or reading. Beach chairs and beach towels remain on-site, eliminating the need to pack sand-covered gear back to the apartment.

Location: Dubrovnik and the Surrounding Area

Villa Lemona occupies the Gruz district of Dubrovnik, a neighbourhood that balances access with authenticity. Bellevue Beach lies within immediate reach—a sheltered cove with clear water and shaded sections, ideal for families preferring calmer conditions. Lapad Bay Beach, approximately 2.6 kilometres away, stretches longer and draws a mix of swimmers and water-sports participants; its promenade accommodates restaurants, rental facilities, and the kind of casual seaside infrastructure that makes half-day beach visits feel effortless.

The UNESCO-protected Dubrovnik Old Town sits roughly 4 kilometres south. Wandering its limestone streets—past Orlando’s Column in the main square, through the shadowed arcades leading to Onofrio’s Fountain, around the ancient city walls that still encircle the core—requires no guidebook; the architecture narrates itself. The Old Town’s restaurants range from tourist-targeted establishments to family-run spots where reservations matter and the daily catch dictates the menu.

Our Dubrovnik City travel guide details seasonal rhythms, restaurant reservations worth making, and day-trip routes that locals prefer.

Beyond the Old Town, Cavtat lies 20 kilometres south—a quieter coastal town with a Renaissance character and the Rector’s Palace museum. Ston, approximately 50 kilometres north, guards the Pelješac Peninsula with 14th-century walls and access to local winery tours; the region produces Plavac Mali red wines that define Dalmatian viticulture. Lokrum Island sits just offshore from the Old Town, a nature reserve and former monastery with forested trails and swimming platforms.

Dubrovnik Airport (Čilipi) stands 20 kilometres south; transfer time to Villa Lemona averages 25–30 minutes by car, depending on Old Town traffic. A supermarket operates within 1 kilometre, and restaurants dot the immediate surroundings—Lapad’s seafront establishments cluster around the bay, while the Gruz neighbourhood supports casual konobas (traditional taverns) alongside contemporary dining.

Seasonality shapes the Dubrovnik experience significantly. May through September deliver reliable heat and calm seas; July and August peak with international crowds. September maintains warmth while thinning the visitor numbers. October still permits swimming (water temperatures remain above 20°C) and offers the clearest light. November–March brings occasional rain and cooler conditions but genuine solitude and authentic local rhythms. Our full collection in Croatia includes seasonal alternatives if flexibility permits.

Who This Villa Suits Best

Extended families benefit from the four-bedroom layout and shared kitchen—grandparents, parents, and children gather naturally around meal preparation and the pool. Two couples traveling together find the ensuite arrangement eliminates morning logistics. Groups of friends renting together appreciate the fitness room, outdoor shower, and fireplace gathering spaces. Multi-generational visits (three generations across eight guests) function smoothly given the accessible ground-floor bathroom and the mix of ensuite and shared facilities. Parents with infants appreciate the highchair and washing machine. Guests seeking to maintain fitness routines find the dedicated room and proximity to Lapad Bay’s cycling paths supportive. Anyone prioritizing privacy over proximity to nightlife finds Gruz perfectly positioned.
