Apartment near the Sea
We had a really nice time at Irene's place. The apartment is directly at the sea, but also within a short walking distance to the central bus station. The old town can also be reached via a nice walk along the beach and promenade. The furnishings are simple, but everything you need is there. The bed is very comfy and the sleeping couch is also very usable. Check-in was very easy and flexible. We were here in the winter. But we had no problem getting the apartment warm with the climate control. There were two very nice and friendly cats that visited us from time to time.

Waking up next to the sea
Everything was perfect! Agata, her father, Zeljko and his wife were super friendly and always very helpful! Communication was super fast! The house is beautiful, really remote and calm! Perfect if you are looking for an island escape and are not in the mood for other people ;)

Seafront Mama Roza Studio A
Location of the apartment is great, with a sea view from the balcony and like 30meters from the sea. Perfect spot for sunrise. Had a short trail right near the house to the next village. Walkable distance from market and cafe. Comfortable bed.

A-5803-a One bedroom apartment near beach Kožino,
If you like watching sunsets by the ocean, having a backyard all to yourself and living in a peaceful and quiet area, this is the BEST place! I thoroughly enjoyed my stay here with my friends. The host was very responsive to any requests we had. The Old Town is not too far away from the place and you can always book an Uber if you're not driving. The Wifi can be a bit slow if everybody uses it at once but it also means that everybody could actually spend time together instead of being on our phones all the time! Definitely recommend this place to anyone who's visiting Zadar!

Apartment for 5 persons with great sea view
We had a great time at Nikolina's place. The apartment is very functional, quality bedding and the view: EXCEPTIONAL! Only problem, at this time, many restaurants and grocery stores were closed so you have to think about shopping before arriving on the island.

Small house 30m from sea...
The apartment was small but had everything we needed, the garden, terrace and ocean view were amazing! Communication with Enzo and his mother was easy, so we can absolutely recomend the place!

Seafront holiday house with direct sea access
We were enchanted by Dunja’s home on the waterfront. It was private, peaceful, surrounded by greenery and close to our daily outings. The house had everything we needed to feel comfortable. Loved the terraces and shore front seating areas. The water was lovely on sunny days. Dunja was there to greet us, show us around, provide advice on places to see, restaurants and history of the area. She is attentive, helpful, accessible and very well informed. We highly recommend her home and hope to visit again.

Room Tanja
Mislav is very welcoming and flexible. Instructions are clear. The home is located in a charming quiet area, close to Zadar. The accommodation is clean and the essentials are available as mentioned in the listing. Excellent!
Beachfront home rentals with a pool

Vila Marij swimming pool,,sauna,billards,dr
We had our bachelor party with 10 men in Zadar and it was fantastic! The rented house with pool, sauna and hot tub was just perfect for our group. There were also some attractions in the area that were good for excursions. Especially in the evening we loved the lively old town – great atmosphere and really good clubs. Overall it was a great experience and I would definitely recommend the house!

*Villa Olivia Zaton* Heated Pool & Spa by the Sea
No words needed! It was perfect and in real life even better than on the photos! Great place, great house and a very nice host! We highly recommend!

Beachfront Vila Hana with amazing view
Dali was wonderful and gave us a warm welcome. She was there to clean the pool and answer any questions we had about the area. Very friendly and kind. The house was comfortable and well equity with everything we wanted and more! We had a wonderful stay and everyone enjoyed the pool and the proximity to the beach!

Apartment Bruna 1,with Pool and heated Whirpool
We had a wonderful time in Ljubac, I’d definitely recommend it. The hosting family was absolutely lovely and very accommodating. The apartment is spacious, clean and well equipped. It was so good to have a pool and a Jacuzzi, the kids loved it too, jumping into the pool the whole time and it really felt very luxurious in a quiet area with great views on the nearby beach and the mountains in the background. We had the ground floor apartment which has 3 bedrooms and a very spacious living room with dining and kitchen together. There are 2 pull-out couches in the living room to sleep on also. The beds were very comfortable and it was great to have an air-conditioning, as the weather was very hot when we were there in August. There’s a small shop nearby in walking distance (10 mins) where you can buy essentials and in the nearby small harbour (7 min walk) at the beach bar we got very nice coffees.

AURAS - Glamping Eco Resort - Tent A2 Seafront
Absolutely loved our 4 night stay at Auras. The accommodation is perfectly kitted out with everything you might need for a relaxing seaside holiday. Dino was great at communicating, offering his help with anything we might need and he is clearly passionate about ensuring his clients enjoy their stay, a real pleasure to deal with. Private access to a beautiful beach with stunningly clear water and an abundance of marine life, we could have snorkelled all day if it wasn't so tempting to get back to the tent for a cosy dinner and drink on the terrace. An absolute must stay for anyone looking for a private getaway in a quiet, but beautiful area of Croatia. We will return!

Villa on the sea with Jacuzzi & heated pool
We were received very kindly by the hosts. We were shown the beautiful villa that exactly matched the pictures. You had a beautiful view of the sea. The pool was perfect for cooling off during the day and in the jacuzzi you could end the day relaxed. These have also been checked regularly. We actually have nothing negative to say about the property or the hosts. You could always ask or let us know about any concerns and got a friendly response quickly. We will be happy to come back.

Villa Iris ZadarVillas
Our family vacation was perfect. Everything was just the same as the photos. The amenities in the house were lacking in nothing. The house was really very clean. The location was quiet and it was really just a few steps to the sea. The pool was cleaned several times early in the morning. After a week's stay, new linens were offered. Replacement towels were in the closet. There were small shops in the village. For larger purchases we drove 15 min to get everything. There are also nice restaurants in the village - great. Contact with Tomislav and Marta on site went smoothly. Marta was always accessible and gave us tips ! All in all, I can recommend this place purest heart, it was really fantastic.

Villa Lela - Heated Pool, Sauna, BBQ, Activites
We were a large group of 6 adults and 6 children, everyone had a very positive time in this place. The place is as described and photographed (I was surprised by the pressure maker, not for capsules - just like in the photos, and the pool turned out to be enough for even a large group). A great sandy beach about 700m away, which is rare in Croatia. I recommend visiting this place. Tomislav thanks for a great vacation !!!

Yellow Fig
Awesome accommodation!

House Jurjevic - whole house with yard&parking
Everything in the house was as described. Only thing surprising was that there was no warm water in the kitchen. The location is absolutely perfect, because there is no more house in front of this one, you have a perfect view of the Karin Sea. Unfortunately, the path in front of the house has now been extended, so it is no longer quite as quiet as hoped for. Also, the beach on the left side has now been filled with gravel, so unfortunately the naturalness has been lost. But unfortunately, it's so often in Croatia. But that's really just little things. All in all, a beautiful holiday in a beautiful house with a great location.

Villa Legacy by the beach-Kali
Marko’s place is amazing! It’s a lovely, modern apartment just on the sea. Super clean and everything working perfectly. Marko was the best host - always communicating, checking that everything is fine, giving local advice. Kali is a very nice place and we had a great holiday - we hope to be back. Thank you

Mobile Home Oseka - Only 40m from the sandy beach
Just words of appreciation for all hosts! The place is as in the description. Ideal for families with young children because the cottage is right on the beach, right next to the cottage is a parking lot and a super restaurant with reasonable prices. Definitely recommend to everyone, and we hope to come again

MH Holiday Dream - Morning Sun - Oaza Mira Resort
We were a little skeptical at the beginning as we have never stayed at a campsite. But we are extremely positively surprised by this great concept. However, the mobile home is extremely comfortable and there is everything you need for the day. Air conditioning in every room, which makes it a little more bearable at 35°C in the shade. The campsite is clean, shops are easily accessible. There are three stands nearby and within walking distance. Our little dog, 14kg, was even tolerated on the beach. All in all, this was a great vacation for our family of four plus dog.

Nice house with private beach
We are very happy with our stay at Ines' house. The house is very beautiful, with it's own beach, so private and quiet. The house is well decorated and very cozy. The back yard is nice with a very comfortable seating areas to have dinner, ready a book or just enjoy watching the see in front of you. The location is good too, close to the town center and to the beautiful city of Zadar which you absolutely have to visit. The hosts were very responsive, easy to communicate with and did everything we asked for. I highly recommend this place to everyone who prefers nice and quiet vacation on the beach and yet with plenty to do around there.

Mobile home by the sea 2
We had a very nice family vacation, the location of the property with the two mobile homes is great. Vlado and Sanda are always reachable and helpful. A fruit/ vegetable merchant and an ice cream truck came by daily, which was convenient because there is no shop nearby. Those who love sea and nature are in the right place.

It was a great stay in Croatia. Peaceful place with an amazing view from balcony. It was worth to visit!
