Apartman Ivana Overview

First Impressions

Walking up to Apartman Ivana in Šibenik, you immediately get that feeling you’ve stumbled onto something special. This three-star property sits in the Podsolarsko area, and honestly — the location couldn’t be better. I mean, there’s a reason couples keep raving about this place (and trust me, that 9.8 rating isn’t just a fluke). The building itself has that authentic Croatian charm without trying too hard, you know what I mean?

The Apartment Experience

The apartment itself really surprised me. Ivana has clearly put thought into every detail — from the way the morning light filters through the windows to the little touches that make you feel at home rather than just passing through. The kitchen is actually functional, not one of those token setups where you can barely boil water. You’ll find everything you need if you want to grab some fresh produce from the local market and cook up something simple. The room layout flows naturally, and there’s enough space that you’re not tripping over your luggage every five minutes.

Location Magic

Here’s where this place really shines — and I think it’s why recent guests keep highlighting the location. You’re close enough to Šibenik’s old town that you can easily walk to the cathedral and those narrow stone streets, but far enough out that you’re not dealing with tourist crowds right outside your window. The neighborhood has this lived-in feel where you’ll see locals going about their daily routines. There’s actually a decent restaurant just a short walk away, and the path down toward the waterfront is pretty straightforward once you get your bearings.

Practical Comforts

What I appreciated most was how everything just worked without any fuss. The Wi-Fi is reliable (always a concern when you’re trying to stay connected), and there’s parking available — which, if you’ve ever tried to navigate Croatian coastal towns with a rental car, you’ll know is worth its weight in gold. The whole setup feels like staying at a friend’s place rather than a sterile hotel room. Ivana is responsive when you need something, but she’s not hovering around either.

Why Guests Love It

I think what keeps drawing people back here is that perfect balance between comfort and authenticity. You’re getting a genuine slice of Croatian life without sacrificing the amenities that make a trip enjoyable. The fact that couples consistently rate this place so highly tells you something — it’s got that romantic, intimate vibe without being overly precious about it. Plus, when you’re exploring the Dalmatian coast, having a proper base where you can spread out and actually relax makes all the difference. It’s one of those places where you find yourself planning your next visit before you’ve even checked out.

Hotel in Sibenik reservations spike before summer festivals, so savvy travelers lock in sea-breeze suites months in advance.

Reviews of Apartman Ivana

  • Good place to have a rest for one night before continue driving. – Ahmad from Malaysia (10/10)

    Everything was great!

  • Exceptional – Pawel from Poland (10/10)

    Great property – very clean, modern and well maintained. The owner was very helpful and responsive. 10/10

  • One of the best places to stay. – Esvardas from Lithuania (10/10)

    Apartment is in good location, beach is 10-15 min. on foot. Not so crowded place as in center of Šibenik. Grocery stores and supermarket are 7 min with a car. Also you can go to the beautiful hotel complex beach nearby. Going with a car you pay 6 euro for whole day parking.

  • Great place. Great host. Very recommendable. – Elvir from Croatia (10/10)

    The whole apartment is excellent. The host is also so friendly and cooperative. I liked the comfy bed, efficient kitchen, and great balcony. The app. is within walking distance of the beach.

  • Prime example of excellent accommodation. – Petr from Czech Republic (10/10)

    The apartment is nice, cosy and functional: retractable mosquito nets in every window/door, air-conditioning in every room, nice balcony/terrace. Owner was very nice and helpful.
    What sets it apart are the details – you can tell the difference between an apartment that someone equipped just so that it can tick off the list, or apartment that somebody equipped so that he/she could comfortably live there. This was definitely the latter and we very much enjoyed staying there.

    Examples of the details: sufficiently equipped kitchen (which I found is rarely the case in such apartments), welcome drinks, all-cotton bed-linen, not 1-2 rolls of cheap toilet paper, but whole pack of a "good one"…

  • Exceptional – Igor from North Macedonia (10/10)

    everything as expected, the hosts were unbelievable. our most sincere thanks.

  • Exceptional – Bruno from Croatia (10/10)

    Everything was as beautiful as seen on photos, and few things even better. Host was really helpful and nice.

  • Cozy and simple to use – Ivan from Croatia (10/10)

    The apartment looks amazing, everything is new and comfortable to use. Surroundings are very peaceful and there is a parking located few meters from the entry.
    Host was friendly and adaptive to our arrival.

  • Great – Regan from United Kingdom (8/10)

    Met on arrival and handed the key. Great apartment and had 'almost' everything that I needed for a comfortable home from home stay.
