Sunnyside Apartments Petrčane in Donje Petrcane

Wedding in Italy Birthday in Croatia
Beautiful place in such a nice area by the Adriatic Sea. Wonderful small village with much to do in the area.

Great place - above expectations
Beautiful property! Grounds and pool were lovely, apartment was spacious and comfortable.

Sladjana at guest services was extremely helpful and friendly in helping us when we had a problem with our car - she was awesome and went way above and beyond!

Only complaint was the bed smelled of pet urine - maybe a little extra cleanup would have helped. Otherwise everything was beyond expectations.

Nice but not so clean
The room was clean but there were lots of ants, which was not so nice.

Absolutely fantastic place, very high standard of property. Very friendly and helpful staff.
2 minutes walk to the beach and bar with swimming pool. What else do you need on holiday?

This was our first time in Croatia and we couldnt have found a nicer complex. It's was a modern apartment with a superb terrace and retractable awning. The air conditioning was a real bonus and in all rooms. There was a great kitchen including a freezer. The towels were changed after five days and the bed linen after ten days. On arrival, the reception is the door on the right of the supermarket. Its not clearly signed. The staff were really professional and helpful. If you've chosen to pay at the hotel, you're billed on check out, not check in. There was only one set of keys, which was a bit of a problem when our party did different things. Most visitors are Croation, German and Slovakian. Its very laid back, and a bit off the beaten track. There's a reasonably priced supermarket, a bistro, and an ice cream parlour. The supermarket is open from 7am to 10pm. Thats about it apart from the Zanzibar restaurant next to the pool. There you can get a great Dalmatian breakfast of two fried eggs, two sausage, two bacon, two toast, cherry tomatoes and feta cheese for 10 euros. Its enough for two people and is delicious. Make sure you ask for the sausage rather than the hot dogs as they weren't of the same quality. They also do pizzas, burgers, pancakes etc. A pint will cost 5.5 euros and a half 4 euros. As mentioned in other reviews, for 2 sunbeds around the pool its 35 euros. Most people just sit on the whicker chairs and tables adjacent to the pool. Its not a problem. Plus all the sunbeds along the shoreline are free. If you get down there by nine o clock you can usually reserve a few by throwing your towels on them like everyone else. The staff at the Zanzibar were great. The pools are great. Three separate pools and a pool bar. The beach is rocky but there are jetties all the way along so that you walk out and go straight into the water. To get to Petrcane you can go along the coastal walk. This takes about fifteen minutes and is a lovely walk. If you're looking out to sea at the Zanzibar just turn left and carry on walking. Or you can take the road above. If your outside of the supermarket staring at it turn left and carry on along the road for about five minutes until you come to a fork in the road. Take the downward route with the yellow sign for Petrcane Hotel. There's a handful of bars and restaurants in Petrcane. Its a really lovely place, with a marina, a beach, ice cream parlours etc. The Mojito is a great place on the front. You can get a pint for 3 euros. A coffee for two euros. Plus they do snacks and there's an upstairs terrace with views out to the sea. To get further afield you'll need a car or taxis. There is a bus service but we didn't us that. We used Uber and it was quite a bit cheaper and quicker than a taxi. From Zadar Airport to Sunnyside it was 30 euros. A taxi would have been 50 euros. From Sunnyside to Zadar was about 15 euros and took roughly twenty minutes. We never had to wait more than ten minutes for an Uber. If you

Nice fresh rooms with a large and good balcony. Close to the pool area and market. We were there at the beginning of June so the opening hours were limited to restaurants and shops.
