Independent hotels in Dugi Otok, Zadar

"Villa Nai 3.3 offers more than just a place to stay; it’s a luxurious, serene experience nestled in a century-old olive grove. With only a few rooms, the atmosphere is peaceful and exclusive, giving the impression of a private retreat. The olive oils produced on-site have won prestigious international awards, and the owner may personally offer a complimentary tour if he’s around. The cuisine is refined and of high quality, making dining elsewhere unnecessary during the stay. While the 7-course tasting menu is impressive, it includes 10 courses, which can feel a bit heavy. Homemade croissants are occasionally underbaked, but overall the food is excellent, and the signature cocktails by the pool are a must-try. The only suggestion for improvement would be to add a pillow menu. In short, Villa Nai 3.3 delivers a tranquil, high-end experience that fully justifies its price."

"We had the pleasure of staying at Holiday Home Nicolleta in late September and were very pleased with the house and extremely impressed with the fast responses we received from the host Nicolleta. Nicolleta was extremely helpful to all of our needs or questions, and went out of her way to find us a contact number for a doctor when we needed to get my husbands stitches checked daily. The house itself was well equipped. The balcony was roomy and scenic, and there was an area behind the house to hang laundry. The location was excellent in Veli Rat. We had a very enjoyable stay and really appreciated the help from Nicolleta. "
