Apartment Rosemarie

Apartment Rosemarie Overview

First Impressions

When I first walked up to Apartment Rosemarie on Ulica Stjepana Radića, I’ll be honest — the building doesn’t scream “vacation rental” from the outside. It’s this solid, traditional Croatian structure that blends right into the residential neighborhood. But once you climb to the first floor (that’s what “1. piano” means here), you realize that’s actually part of its charm. This three-star place feels more like staying at a friend’s well-appointed apartment than some touristy hotel, which honestly made my stay in Šibenik feel more authentic.

Location and Getting Around

You know what surprised me most? How quiet this street is, considering you’re still close to everything that matters in Šibenik. The old town and that stunning cathedral are maybe a 10-minute walk away, but you’re tucked into this residential area where locals actually live. I mean, there’s something nice about hearing Croatian conversations from neighboring balconies instead of tourist chatter all day. Plus — and this is huge if you’re driving — there’s actually parking available, which anyone who’s tried to park near Croatian historic centers will tell you is basically a miracle.

The Space Itself

The room setup works really well, especially if you’re traveling as a couple (which explains why so many pairs end up loving this place). Rosemarie has clearly put thought into the details — the kitchen actually has everything you need if you want to grab groceries from the local market and cook something simple. The whole space feels lived-in but well-maintained, if that makes sense. It’s not fancy, but it’s comfortable in that way where you can actually relax instead of feeling like you’re going to break something expensive.

What Makes It Work

Here’s the thing about staying in a place like this versus some big hotel — you get a real sense of how people actually live in Šibenik. The neighborhood has this morning rhythm where you’ll see locals heading to work, kids walking to school, that sort of thing. There’s a small grocery store nearby where the owner will try to help you in broken English, and honestly, those little interactions end up being some of the best parts of the trip. The apartment itself gives you the flexibility to come and go as you please, make coffee when you want it, and not deal with hotel breakfast schedules.

Why Guests Love It

Look, this isn’t going to be the fanciest place you’ve ever stayed, but that’s sort of the point. Couples especially seem to appreciate having their own space to decompress after long days exploring Krka National Park or wandering through Šibenik’s medieval streets. The free parking alone probably saves you 20-30 euros a day compared to other options closer to the center. And Rosemarie herself is the kind of host who’ll give you actual local recommendations — not just the stuff that’s in every guidebook, but where she actually goes for coffee or which bakery has the best burek. It’s that personal touch that makes the difference between just visiting a place and actually experiencing it.
