    Beautifully appointed one-bedroom apartment. It was well decorated, super clean with all the amenities to make it an enjoyable stay. There is also an elevator to the sixth floor location. Checkin was easy and we appreciated the host let us check in early when we arrived at about noon. Also free parking in a reserved space. A bakery and grocery store are located one block away. We had an enjoyable stay and would return again!

    Fantastic modern apartment, nicely decorated and well equipped. It's been a long time since we were in a place that had everything we could possibly need. Great contact with the owner who gave us all the information right away and we didn't have to ask or worry about anything. A minute to the nearest store and a 20-minute walk to the beach (there is a beautiful view of Sibenik on the way). In addition, we received a tasty welcome gift that was waiting for us in the refrigerator. I sincerely recommend it!
