Dubrovnik City Guide

Dubrovnik is Croatia's most-prestigious coastal city and the 'Pearl of the Adriatic' — population 41,562 (city, only ~4,000 living within the UNESCO Old Town walls). The Old City of Dubrovnik was inscribed UNESCO World Heritage in 1979 — its medieval city walls, baroque streets, and limestone architecture have made it one of the Mediterranean's most-recognised destinations (further amplified by Game of Thrones filming the King's Landing scenes here 2011-2019). The city's prime market is ultra-luxury: Old Town €7,000+/m² with prime seafront/Old Town locations reaching €10,000/m². Even outside the Old Town, Dubrovnik commands €4,151-€4,700/m² (Jan 2026) — making it Croatia's most-expensive coastal market, 37% above Split. Foreign buyers dominate the ultra-prime segment: UK, US, German, Russian, Gulf-state, and increasingly Asian ultra-HNW.
