What a gem this place is.

This place is amazing but what makes it really special is the lovely couple that own it. They make you feel so welcome and it feels like they are friends welcoming you into their home. The food is also amazing. Make sure you make dinner reservations and enjoy. You wont be disappointed.

We had a lovely stay at Tesla’s and we felt as though we were guests in their home instead of a hotel. They thought of every possible detail to make our stay comfortable, the food was excellent, and they were perfect hosts. We would definitely be regular customers if we weren’t 9K miles away!

What a wonderful stay! The owners are so hospitable and kind and truly made our stay very enjoyable. We stayed one night and did the Plitvice Park. We dined at Tesla for supper and the food was phenomenal! Don’t miss the dinner and the very generous breakfast in the morning (lots of variety and very tasty). We highly recommend and hope we have the opportunity to return some day.

Tesla’s accommodations were absolutely stunning—set on a picturesque hillside with charming, clean, and beautifully decorated spaces. The rooms were lovely: spacious, spotless, and thoughtfully designed. The common areas where breakfast, lunch, and drinks were served were equally inviting, with cozy decor and great outdoor seating perfect for relaxing, playing games, or simply enjoying the view. The spa was a highlight, featuring a hot tub, sauna, and large garage doors that opened to breathtaking scenery. The owners, Visnja and Davorin, were truly wonderful—some of the kindest and most welcoming hosts we’ve ever met. Visnja’s cooking was phenomenal; we had both dinner and breakfast there and were blown away by the quality, service, and warmth they provided. I highly recommend staying here—especially if you’re visiting Plitvice National Park. It’s a beautiful, unforgettable day trip, and this accommodation makes the perfect home base.

This is an absolutely beautiful small hotel located in a scenic valley between forested mountains just 10 minutes from Plitvicke National Park. Modern, clean, well-designed. The host and hostess were welcoming and very friendly. Food was excellent - both the breakfast and the amazing 4-course dinner prepared by the hostess, a mix of Croatian specialties. A quiet countryside location that adults will like, but plenty of room for kids to run around. You definitely need a car to come and go, but that's true for most of the places in this region of Croatia.

Great place in a great location.

We had such a nice time here. The owners are so kind, friendly and helpful. They will try to accommodate you as much as possible. We left early one morning to go explore and they gave us to go coffee and a croissant. We chose to have dinner there both nights and so glad we did. They will prepare a four course menu while you sit outside looking at the beautiful countryside. The location is perfect if you are going to the Plitvice Lakes National Park. It is only about 10 minutes away. Our room was comfy and the bathroom had a big shower. We would definitely stay here again.

Staying at Tesla’s was a dream for us! We were greeted by the owners with a very warm welcome making us feel right at home from the first moment. Their hospitality was generous throughout our entire stay, they were very helpful with providing info for the park as well as making sure we had all the comforts you could desire during your stay. The property is beautiful, and there are many spaces for peace and relaxation including outdoor sitting areas, sauna and hot tub. They also have a full bar and kitchen/dining space. You should definitely take advantage of choosing the meal package as the food was excellent; wholesome freshly homemade top quality food served with a smile. Much better than most restaurants around. The hosts make this place truly 5 star, you will not regret choosing Tesla’s Gastro!

It is close to the entrance 2 to the Plitvice national park. The owner couple was very friendly and it was nice to chat with them. If you want, you can get dinner and breakfast at extra costs. The owner lady cooked everything herself and it was exceptional. The dinner consists of a starter, a soup, a main dish and a desert. Everything tasted great and you can enjoy traditional Croatian dish from fresh local ingredients. For breakfast, there were a variety of things to choose. From fresh fruits to fresh-baked Croissants. She also prepared home-made marmalades. They also had a small hut next to the house, where they had a sauna and a jacuzzi. It was really relaxing to sit in the sauna after hours of hiking in the national park. We really enjoyed the stay at this place.

If you are going to visit Plitvice, this is THE place to stay. Period. The owners of this charming property are TRUE hoteliers that are impossible to find anymore. They actually care and take PRIDE in all they do. They dont just show up, they are there to make your stay perfect. MUST DO TIP: They offer a meal service for dinner that I HIGHLY recommend. It is not just a meal. This is an experience. A well done, home made 4 course meal and they have a professionally stocked craft bar as well that is hardly mentioned. (They do request cash for the meal service) They are eager to mix up any cocktail you dream up. The meal actually rivaled any I had in all the major cities in Croatia - and I only travel 5⭐️. Bear in mind that there is relatively NOTHING around Plitvice so if you dont opt for the meal - you are likely on your own. Yes the rooms feature a modern and clean kitchen but why in the hell would you do that when you have the amazing meal offered downstairs???? AC was amazing, Netflix was available as well as other streaming services for a nice movie. Spotlessly clean and also used the jacuzzi and sauna after my day. Can’t say enough. Im 6’2” and the bed was super comfy. You have found a gem.
