We are a family of 4 adults and stayed for 10 nights in a 2 bed apartment which was spacious, spotlessly clean and well equipped. The air con was excellent and meant we all slept well. The beds/towels were changed half way through, along with a quick clean which was appreciated. On arrival we found the apartment had 2 double beds rather than the double and twin set-up we had on our reservation. We were quickly offered a solution of an additional single bed which worked well. The pool area was lovely and there were always sunbeds available. We loved the views from the apartment, both front and back. Slano was a perfect size with enough restaurants and shops for our needs.

Great apartments in a wonderful location

Posted 29 May 2023 on Hotels
This is a lovely property in a nice location (suited us anyway) which was quiet with good restaurants nearby and only 20km from Dubrovnik. It was a very spacious apartment with great aircon, comfortable beds and all the little extras sorted out like washing up liquid and tea towels. Parking is available via a security barrier and one thing we did learn is that parking is hard to find and often needs to be paid for so a big bonus

Great service as always from Vila Riva

Posted 9 Jun 2022 on Hotels
Vila Riva apartments are exceptional and myself and other family members have stayed there many times. On this occasion my wife was very ill and we were able to get an apartment at short notice, All the staff were helpful and sympathetic. This included putting inn an extra bed to accommodate my 8 year old granddaughter. Well done to everyone at Vila Riva and helping us when it was most needed.

Very comfortable and would definitely recommend

Posted 17 May 2019 on Hotels
Excellent apartment! The place was so big, our toddler was very happy to run around everywhere. Lots of natural sunlight in the kitchen and living room area which was particularly nice when we were having breakfast in the morning or an early dinner in the evening - you see a nice sunset from the apartment windows too. Very quiet and no disturbance at all during our stay, and our toddler slept very well every night. The washing machine came in handy - just bring your own laundry detergent. There's a half-size dishwasher in the kitchen and tablets are included, so very easy to clean up the kitchen after meals. Parking is just behind the pool area, secured by a key fob-operated gate.

Definitely recommend this property!! If I was being picking...they use two single duvet instead of one double , the tv extra channels are of bad quality but you shouldn’t be watching the tv and when the boats are in it can get a little noisy. But all this is forgiven when you see the view from the villa. If stay here you won’t be disappointed.

Beautiful!

Posted 10 Aug 2018 on Hotels
The Villa is beautiful, the room was immaculate , with great facilities :cooker, oven, fridge, dishwasher and washing machine . The village is also beautiful, with lovely and quite cheap restaurants. The only negative point is the little shop in the village. The staff gave us the wrong change multiple times when we did our shopping there. I am not recommending the shop, but I am afraid that is the only one in the village (Pemo market) I will definitely come back to Villa Riva with my family. Really enjoyed our time there.
