Villa Ruža is absolutely wonderful and is (in our humble opinion) the best place to stay in Međugorje! The location was very convenient for our family's visit with our 2 children (ages 12 and 18). It is a very short walk (perhaps 5 minute) to the path leading to Apparition Hill. It is also about a 5 minute drive (also walkable - 2.8 km/ 1.73 miles) to the parking area where we started the trek up to the Križevac (or “Cross Mountain”). Additionally, Villa Ruža is a short 12 minute walk (via path/ shortcut) to the Church of Saint James the Greater (Apostle). And while you're in the area of Saint James Church, don't forget to also visit the Naša Majka Museum and Art gallery. The Naša Majka Museum museum is a place all pilgrims must visit while in Medjugorje - the multimedia kiosks provide a way to play videos in several languages and is a great way to learn more about the historical facts of Međugorje. Villa Ruža is situated with a serene backdrop with beautifully landscaped grounds and views and has plenty of parking. And you will appreciate the parking when you realize the limited parking spaces other visitors must contend with when visiting Apparition Hill, especially during the busy holiday periods. The owner (Dario and his family) are wonderful and went out of their way to make us feel at home. They are actively involved in the management/ operation of this beautiful property; as noted by others, they maintain an exceptionally high standard when it comes to cleanliness and the comfort of their guests. Aside from their warm and welcoming nature, they were also extremely helpful in answering any questions and providing valuable insights into the history of the local area and region. When we visit again, Villa Ruža is where we will once again stay. It will also be the place that we recommend to family, friends, and members of our ministry when visiting Međugorje.

I had the most incredible stay at Villa Riža! The apartment's perfect location, nestled in the peaceful surroundings, made it an absolute dream. Being right beside Apparition Hill was a true blessing, as I could easily access the sacred site and immerse myself in its spiritual atmosphere. Additionally, the short 10-minute walk to St. James Church allowed me to conveniently attend services and participate in the religious activities. The owner of Villa Riža was exceptionally helpful throughout my stay. His warm and welcoming nature made me feel right at home from the moment I arrived. He was always available to answer any questions I had and provided valuable insights about the local area, ensuring that I had the best possible experience during my visit. Moreover, the apartment itself was spotless clean, reflecting the owner's dedication to maintaining a high standard of cleanliness and comfort. Every corner of the apartment was meticulously maintained, creating a cozy and inviting atmosphere that made it easy to relax and unwind after a long day of exploring. I cannot recommend Villa Riža enough to anyone looking for a peaceful and convenient place to stay in Medjugorje. Whether you are seeking a spiritual retreat or simply a tranquil getaway, this place has it all. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!

Very quiet and peaceful! And the staff went out of their way to accommodate us arriving very late in the evening and also preparing breakfast for us. They also delivered extra fruit and croissants to our room on two different occasions. The property is located at the foot of the Apparition Hill which was very convenient for our morning and afternoon veneration.

Nothing

Very friendly, comfortable and clean place extremely close to the Apparitian Hill. With Amazing nature around it. 5 minutes away from any attraction or center. We loved it and will definitely be visiting again and staying in the same hotel.

very clean rooms, very nice and polite receptionist . Great location, we were able to walk to all places in Medugorje, close distance to everywhere so no need to drive. Available car parking. very good location for families with kids, there is green space/garden in front of hotel so kids have possibility to play in front of hotel on green grass and not on the street.

Excellent place at amazing location and wonderful staff. The rooms are great, clean, the premises are peaceful and serene. Breakfast was great, a lot of choice + freshly made hotdog sausages and scrambled eggs on request. Parking is right in front of the villa and you have a quick 5 minute walk to the bottom of the apparition hill. All in all, I’d recommend the place to anyone and would happily come back again.

I highly recommend Villa Ruža. My experience there was great and I look forward to returning. The owner, Dario is so generous and hospitable. The rest of the staff is really nice as well. The room was nice, comfortable and really clean. It had an air conditioner that worked well and drapes and window shutters that blocked out the light nicely. The property is a few minutes drive from the main church and is quiet and peaceful. It's about a 5 minute walk to the base of Apparition Hill. Breakfast was great as well. I recommend contacting the hotel directly to make a reservation. Thank you, Dario!

Very friendly host, warm welcome and nice chat upon arrival. Whole facility was exceptionally clean and well maintained. Breakfast was just as expected, not fancy, but delicious. Surrounding is nice and quiet. In general, our stay was very satisfying.

We enjoyed our stay in the Villa. Our room is very clean, bathroom floor and wall were even shiny. They provide good breakfast, freshly cooked eggs and hot dogs in the morning, fruits, croissants, bread, espresso, etc.. they also provide fresh fruits in the room. The owner is very hospitable and even arranged for our transportation from Montenegro and SJJ airport, including our local trips. They have an elevator. They have a tranquil garden that I will surely miss during our breakfast. Alf restaurant Is just around the corner about a minute walk from the Villa for lunch and dinner. The garden enhances your relaxation with the grotto for Mother Mary, and the sound of birds and sight of butterflies flying around. Location is also great, away from the busy street and stores but 5 min walk and you’re at the bottom of the Apparition Hill and about 15 minute walk to the church. This place is a jewel if you want to get away from busy life and relax or enhance your spirituality. Price is also exceptional. Thank you Mr. Dario for your kind hospitality. Also, kudos to Mr. Milenko our driver who provided a safe transportation to our travels.

The host was great, as I had no internet on my phone I couldn’t get the directions to the accommodation, Dario came to the town centre to show us the way to the appartment and was very attentive and helpful.The rooms very clean and comfortable. The property is so relaxing with views of the mountains and not far from the Apparition Hill and only a 15min walk to centre. The breakfast was great and had coffee machine that you could use at anytime. Definitely would stay here again and highly recommend it.
