Apartments by the sea Zaboric, Sibenik – 20082 Overview
First Impressions
When I first pulled up to Apartments by the sea Zaboric, Sibenik – 20082, honestly, the name pretty much tells you everything you need to know. This three-star property sits right where you’d want it — close enough to the Adriatic that you can actually hear the waves, but tucked away in Zaboric, which is this quieter stretch just outside the main hustle of Šibenik. The whole setup feels more like staying at a friend’s place than some sterile hotel, and there’s free parking right on site, which — trust me — is a bigger deal than you might think in this part of Croatia.
Location & Getting Around
You know what really struck me about this spot? It’s got that sweet spot location thing figured out perfectly. Zaboric itself is this little coastal area that locals actually know about, not just tourists, and you’re close enough to Šibenik’s old town (maybe a 10-minute drive) to explore those incredible medieval streets and the famous cathedral. But when you want to escape the crowds, you just head back to your apartment and you’ve got this peaceful seaside vibe. The recent guest rating of 9.2 for location makes total sense once you’re there — couples especially seem to get it, probably because it’s romantic without being overly touristy.
The Accommodation
The apartments themselves are pretty straightforward but comfortable — I mean, this is a three-star place, so don’t expect marble bathrooms or anything fancy. What you do get is space to spread out, which feels great after cramped hotel rooms elsewhere. Each unit has its own character, and most have some kind of sea view or at least a glimpse of water through the trees. The room I stayed in had this simple, clean setup with everything you actually need, plus that crucial air conditioning for those hot summer afternoons when the Croatian sun gets serious.
The Seaside Experience
Here’s the thing about being “by the sea” — this isn’t just marketing speak. You can literally walk to the water in a couple of minutes, and the coastline here is that perfect mix of rocky spots for exploring and gentler areas for swimming. The water stays pretty clear, and there’s something really satisfying about being able to take a quick dip and then head back to your place to rinse off. I spent quite a few evenings just sitting outside, watching the light change over the water — it’s the kind of simple pleasure that makes you remember why you travel in the first place.
Why Guests Love It
Look, this place isn’t trying to be something it’s not, and that’s actually refreshing. The 7.5 rating feels honest — it’s good, solid, and delivers exactly what it promises. You get that authentic Croatian coastal experience without paying resort prices, and the fact that couples rate it so highly tells you something about the peaceful, romantic atmosphere. If you’re looking for a base to explore the Šibenik area while still having your own space and easy beach access, this hits the mark. Just don’t expect a spa or fancy restaurant — but honestly, with all the great local spots nearby, you probably won’t miss them.
