Apartment & boat near the beach
We were very pleased and felt comfortable!

Apartment Adriana Kolovare
Staying with Jaranka feels like coming home. She's such a gracious, kind, and helpful host. The apartment is perfectly equipped and leaves nothing to be desired. If we travel to this beautiful country again, we would stay here again. Thank you Jadranka!

Beach apartment LanaDoti1 beneath NP Paklenica
We enjoyed our holiday very much! Super nice family, cozy place and a quiet beautiful place to relax. 🥰

Luxury,with sea view! LIPOTICA
Checkin was very easy, the apartment was very clean and as the pictures showed. Old Town Nin is only a few minutes walk away with lots of shops and cafes. Highly recommend this place!

Legacy Marine2, Luxury Suites
The apartment is impeccable and has everything you need and more. 10 min easy walk to the old town and Marko is extremely helpful and we thoroughly recommend staying here.

Apartment with SEA VIEW on KOLOVARE BEACH &Parking
Absolutely lovely. We all felt great, including our 3 year old. The apartment is clean and nice. We will surely recommend it to our relatives and friends. Thanks, Nina!

Sea&old town view! Apt in city center+free parking
We loved everything about this apartment. From the check in process, to the amenities, cleanliness, space itself. Also, you have everything you need, grocery store, restaurants, coffee shops, within walking distance. The view on the sea is amazing in the early morning.

Apartment Marinero 1
Wonderful location and views from the large balcony. Convenient for transport and local amenities - and we very much enjoyed eating in the lovely Marinero Restaurant below the apartment (which was not noisy at night).

Cozy apartment, great positions, and very welcoming Daniel. Thank you for your hospitality. I recommend Rosina

NEW HOUSE NEAR THE BEACH WITH STUNNING SEA VIEW
A beautiful place to stay, the house from the outside as well as the apartment were a dream. It was exactly as described in the pictures and furnished with attention to detail, we felt more than comfortable. From the balcony you have a great view of the local harbor of the village and do not miss a sunset. The reception was super warm, it was even baked for us. The lady had provided some treats for us and informed us directly about possible excursions in the area. The location of the house was very quiet and private, for us as a couple the perfect end to our 10 day trip through Croatia. The beach was easy to reach, it also serves as a dog beach which did not bother us out of season as no one was there. Highly recommended, here you can really switch off!!

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.

Beautifull house in stone "Cvita"
We had an amazing time at Gorana. Highly recommended!

Holiday House Oleander
Great location , close to the sea, sitting on the terrace in the shade of Oleander, we heard a splash of water. Charming, cozy , well-equipped, and ready for our arrival. The host was very friendly, helpful , got us parking - a fee of 60 euros for 2 weeks. Quiet , various restaurants invite you to visit. Shops close to home. We were with 4 people and these 2 weeks passed in a very pleasant atmosphere. We were sad to leave. Even the bells from the nearby church stopped bothering us. We'd love to go back.

Sea house Veronika - Sea Melody
Had a great and relaxing holiday at Seahouse Veronika. The privacy and direct sea access made for easy snorkelling and paddleboarding. Stipe and Tomislav (and Stefan - Tomislav's brother) were really helpful.

Beach House Kocer (free parking)
A wonderful stay and very helpful and friendly hosts. Would love to return, never been so close to the beach at an AirBnB!

Superb main square residence
Perfect location! We came as a group attending a festival and it was perfect! Some really nice restaurants right in the doorstep 😊 We loved spending time on the terrace of an evening before heading out! Very spacious and clean My only comment is there is no black out blinds in the master bedroom so was very bright early in the morning but this is our only complaint 😊 Host was super friendly and responsive would love to return!
Waterfront condo rentals

City centre apt with view+ free street parking
The apartment itself is really nice and comfortable. It is perfectly located just outside the old town and has limited free parking around. The building is older and the elevator very small. Our stroller just fit in. I would stay there again.

Apartment with sea view
We had a great time at Michelle's place. We were welcomed by Andreas who was very welcoming, attentive and always very good advice. The apartment is as described and the location is idyllic for a peaceful vacation away from crowded places. I would recommend this apartment to go there without a second thought...

Beautiful apartment (no. 5), beach in front of the door
A beautiful, restful place to stay in Zadar. Close to all amenities and great restaurants. Very easy to get around. The apartment is immaculate. The bed was nicely firm, fluffy towels, everything you may need was there. The hosts really stood for us. Lovely couple, who enjoy what they do.

Mystica - charming studio apartment on the beach
My wife and I really enjoyed our stay. Easy and helpful communication. Apartment was exactly as pictured. Clean comfortable and cozy. The location, especially the balcony and private water access was so nice. There are a couple of good nearby restaurant options (including 1 next door with boats of tourists coming by the waterfront access most days). Really lovely and kind hospitality from Vedrana’s mother, Jasna, including welcome fruit from the property and drinks. The only possible critique is the internet is a little slow, but steady and functional for most things. Highly recommend! Thanks again!

apartment Ella, Zadar room, bathroom, kitchen
It was perfect - near seaside, perfect apartament and Davor and his wife were very nice. We will come again here.

Fantastic apartment right on the sea
Quiet and peaceful location with almost private lagoon. Place is modern, equipped with everything you will ever need for your vacation. Overall, a very pleasant experience… can’t really complain about anything.

Sea view-Dugi otok for 2 ((No1))
It was a very nice apartment, with everything you need. Very easy to reach by car and with a beautiful view. You only have to walk 100 meters for a lovely beach. Communication with Petra also went very well. The only downside is that there is no shutter so you wake up very early in the morning. Otherwise really a top space so thank you Petra!

My Dalmatia - Sea view apartment Privlaka
The apartment is just like in the photos, spacious, clean and has rich amenities. The sea is really very close, 1-minute walk. Within 3 minutes the shores have shallow water with sand beneath that make it a great fit for families with small children. I would come back anytime to the apartment and the surroundings too. Our host was also very kind and responsive, she made sure that we can occupy the apartment as soon as possible - in fact we could get the keys 4.5 hours before the previously settled time.
