Welcome to Cesarica, little Adriatic diamond!
Erika is a very nice person and helpful. The apartment was clean. Within walking distance there is a small bay ideal for children. The beach is not crowded. There are also rocky cliffs for jumping into the water. In the bay the water was colder in some places. Cesarica is a good starting point to visit Velebit, Zavratnica, the Nikola Tesla museum, Plitvice or take a ferry to the island of Pag or Rab. Best regards and thank you.

Luxury apartment B3 with 2 swimming pools
We felt like at home! Everything was as described and functional. Small shortcoming: In the preseason in mid-May, very few restaurants and shops were still open, the city was still in "hibernation". You just had to plan the activities a little better than in the main season. Fortunately, there is a bakery 50m from the property.

Nice new apartment near the sea
We would definitely stay here again! Hvala!

Lovely apartment in Ribarica bay
We had amazing time in Ribarica. It was exactly what we were looking for. Picturesque place, peaceful and quiet .And Neven’s place was really great. It had all facilities we needed . The balcony was really big. And the apartment was jus a few steps away from a lovely beach . We really recommend this place 🩷

Villa by the sea - entire house
We booked the entire house as a group of 13 people and loved it! The location of the house is a dream, the amenities leave nothing to be desired and in particular the view from the terraces and the short walk to the sea accesses were our highlights. The apartment was very clean and the check-in went smoothly. We will be happy to come back!

Studio apartment Novalja

Terin Apartments - Seaview Apartment 2
Lovely host & apartment with a stunning view of the sea. The house is surrounded by a beautiful garden and the private beach offers enough space. We had a great time despite the partly rainy fall weather 😁

Villa Cesarica Novalja
We really enjoyed our stay at this Villa. Nadia and Jelena provided us with great support and were always available when we needed something. Recommendable if you want to relax, but also really easy to get to neighbouring towns/festival places. Thank you for bestowing us with an awesome trip.
