Hoping to rent an apartment or villa im or near Dubrovnik in May. Having trouble deceiding whether to stay in the city or one of the nearby towns. looking at places near the old town, in the Lapad area, in the Lapad Bay region, in Cavtat, the village of Gornji Brgat and an area calling itself Mini-Dubrovnik. Guess we are wondering if being in or close to the old town may be too crowded and noisy or if some of the other spots my prove a hassle because of the distance from Dubrovnik and finding parking. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated.
I stayed within walking distance of the old town and loved it. After walking around the old town, I would have stayed there as well. During my 3 night stay I did not go to those other areas of Dubrovnik, but I fell everything I needed to see and do centered around the old town. Walking was the best for this.
