Man boede som de lokale. Huset var som beskrevet og efter jeg bookede skrev værten for at sikre sig at vi havde set den fulde beskrivelse om at badeværelset var separat fra huset, for at vi ikke blev overrasket når vi ankom. Utrolig imødekommende...

Das Haus ist wunderschön, besonders weil es in der Nähe des Sabil-Platzes liegt. Aber noch schöner als der Ort selbst war der Besitzer: Er war ein sehr freundlicher, ehrlicher Mann, der stets darauf geachtet hat, dass es uns an nichts fehlt....

Skvělá komunikace s majitelem, který byl velmi ochotný a příjemný. Od začátku komunikoval velmi rychle, zodpověděl veškeré dotazy. Pomohl nám s parkováním i věcmi. Jeho domeček je kouzelný, autentický, ale zároveň čistý a pohodlný:) Moc hezký...

Experience the authentic spirit of old Sarajevo in a private historical oasis, just a few minutes' walk from Sebilj and Baščaršija! Our traditional Bosnian home is rented as an entire unit (up to 6 guests). The interior is clean and functional, featuring a spacious living room, a bedroom with a comfortable double bed, an equipped kitchen, and a dedicated home office setup with high-speed Wi-Fi. The ultimate highlight is the massive, enclosed 500 m² private garden and courtyard (avlija) with stone cobblestones, outdoor seating, and a functional built-in stone BBQ fireplace. A true green sanctuary and a rare find in the very heart of the Old Town! IMPORTANT NOTES BEFORE BOOKING (Please read carefully): Traditional Outdoor Toilet: In line with the historic architecture of the local neighborhood, the fully functional toilet (modern flush system) is located outside the main living quarters, within our private, enclosed courtyard. It is accessed by stepping into the avlija. Low Bathroom Ceiling: The indoor bathroom (equipped with a bathtub and washing machine) has preserved its original structure and features a lower ceiling height of 1.90m (6.2 ft), which tall guests should keep in mind. Natural Environment: Due to the large green garden and trees, it is completely natural to occasionally encounter a stray fly or a tiny spider in the courtyard or indoors. The house is thoroughly cleaned, but please consider this if you are extremely sensitive to insects. If you want to experience the true history of Sarajevo and enjoy your own green sanctuary in the center of the city – welcome!
As a Sarajevo native, I am naturally driven by precision, strong organization, and clear communication. My ultimate goal is to make your stay in our family heritage home completely relaxing, seamless, and worry-free. I highly value the privacy of my guests and will provide you with full autonomy to enjoy the house and the massive garden as if it were your own. However, I am always readily available via phone or messaging for any assistance you might need—whether it’s local recommendations for dining, discovering hidden gems around the city, or general support during your stay. I look forward to hosting you and helping you experience Sarajevo in the best possible way!
The property is located in the heart of the Old Town, nestled in one of Sarajevo’s traditional and peaceful historic hillsides (mahala). The greatest advantage of this location is the perfect balance it offers: you will stay in a quiet, safe, and authentic residential area surrounded by greenery, yet you are just a few minutes' walk downhill from the bustling Baščaršija square, the iconic Sebilj fountain, and all major historical sights. Within a 5-minute walk, you will find local grocery shops, traditional bakeries serving fresh Bosnian bread, authentic restaurants, and public transport hubs (tram and bus stations) that connect you to the rest of the city. This location is perfect for exploring Sarajevo entirely on foot, allowing you to experience the city just like a local.
