A great base...
Modern flat, tastefully decorated and impeccably clean. A good place to base yourself to go exploring the beaches and coves of the Dalmation coast.
We enjoyed cocktails on the balcony at sundown. This villa is ideal for a group of adult friends rather than taking very young children - with two high balconies and a swimming pool in close proximity to the patio doors.

Beautiful coastline views!
Perfectly located overlooking the 'Croatian Riviera' with beautiful panoramic views of the stunning coastline with a balcony up on the second floor to make the most of the scenery, particularly as the sun goes down. It's a five minute drive down to the beach and the coastal village of Opatija and its amazing bars, restaurants and shops. Parents should be wary of the hard floors when staying here with children!
-
Great for a group of friends!
A great apartment to base yourself for a Croatian beach holiday. It's up in the hills overlooking the sea below. Plenty of room with five spacious bedrooms and bathrooms, one with a jacuzzi! Perfect for a groups of friends to come and trawl the beachside restaurants and the buzzy atmosphere a short drive down the hill.
