10/10 Excellent
"We stayed for a week, at this truly excellent boutique hotel. The staff were exceptionally pleasant and attentive. The dining was excellent, both with the included breakfast and also for evening dining, especially if you want an authentic and locally-sourced Croatian dining experience. There is a small private swimming pool; but even better is the public swimming in the sea literally right across the single-lane street, along with the beach bar also operated by the hotel. Overall it's not just a place to sleep; it's more like a high-end summer resort."

"Beautiful apartment that had 2 large bedrooms, a nice lounge and kitchen diner. It was fully equipped with everything you might need, especially if you chose to dine in. The real bonus for us was the terrace overlooking the sea with 4 sun loungers and large dining table. Just a few steps down to the gate and then you could be in the sea.The welcome goodies were much appreciated, especially the fresh fruit and tomatoes as well as drinks and snacks. The location is very central being very close to both passenger and car ferry routes to Zadar. The journey from Zadar airport was very easy and we didn’t feel the need for a car at all.The apartment is very close to Preko and Kali for lovely evening meals. We chose to hire bikes from Anthony who is based just outside the apartment and this was the perfect base to explore the island. We will definitely be back!"
