Hotels on first line in Zadar County

2 beach bars that are a little pricy ( we paid $20 for 2 drinks). Overall would reccomend Pine Beach!

Our overall experience at Pine Beach Pakoštane was mixed. The check-in process is far too long, with huge queues of people waiting. We were also very disappointed that changing our bungalow was apparently not possible

There was a lot of shouting and large groups creating queues almost everywhere, which significantly affected the overall atmosphere. The beach is beautiful, but unfortunately there was quite a lot of rubbish around

Finding a sunbed can also be difficult, as many guests reserve them very early in the morning and leave them unused for long periods

We were also disappointed with the drinks – the self-service drink dispensers frequently did not work properly, and the selection mainly consisted of cheap-tasting syrups rather than good-quality soft drinks

However, the toilets often do not flush properly and the drains in the showers frequently fail to drain the water, which is extremely unpleasant. The restaurant itself is very good, clean and well organised

+ very nice and helpful staff + great location with large terrain around + very nice indoor pool (outdoor was open in Oct but it was cold) + very big choice for breakfast and good quality + small price difference to upgrade from just breakfast (add buffet dinner) but we didn't use it + in case of low season, it is worth to negotiate with them directly, but avoid Sundays - "sales department and manager...

Drinks are quite expensive, as is typical in Croatia, but there were great special rates for hotel guests at the beach (lounger + umbrella for €5 instead of €20)

I stayed there beg Oct (so after the main season) in a family room with breakfast. After 1 night in standard, I moved to Premium (both in A building)

The beaches were awesome, staff were warm. Welcoming and energetic. Rooms well kept and updated.

The beach is typically Croatian, with rocks, but very well maintained

Overall really very good At check in we were told subbed where chargeable - luckily we had an email that told us ours were included - something about the date being 15/06 as chargeable - season change ? Otherwise that would have added €25 per day ! I do think hotels should not charge staying guests to use a facility ! I understand charging a day visitor Overall a great place - just that minor thing...

I frankly thank them a lot not to mind too much about strangers ? Go on guys, they like seeing strangers in their pool

Hotel is asking for refreshments as all the facilities are used for many years now and grade for that part alone wouldn't be the best. But hotel has what's the most important, people at work that are amazing team

Lovely campsite with amazing facilities. Private beach and access to the Funimation wellness center and spa. Only a short cycle into Zadar following the coastal road. Private beach ⛱️

Animation team, reception, everyone else, super friendly and attentive, especially with our little boy

We couldn't go swimming because it was too windy, but we had a good time. I can't forget the seagulls floating on the outdoor pool.

Good resort with all facilities Good resort with all the facilities which are well maintained. All meals are good with a good spread. Staffs are polite

Fabulous budget hotel, right on the beach, lots of indoor and outdoor space. Rooms a decent size if a ligttle tired, balcony and seaview rooms are lovely

Beach is clean with enough shade and space. Pool seemed ok, but never used it. Or 20 minutes by tourist train (30 kuna per person) or bus (10 kuna one way ticket). Don't expect many shopping oportunities near hotel

I'm not sure why this hotel is only rated 3 stars. It's fantastic, from the food, to the staff, to where it's located. It a hidden gem in my opinion. Nothing bad to say about here at all

All-inclusive offering very extensive and exceptional value for money although as the hotel caters predominantly for German clientele expect that represented in the food

Clean, amazing staff, so friendly staff and good food

Very good cost/value for everything

It was an incredible expirience, the hotel is near the beach and you have access to the pools as well

We had a great time, food was excellent, especially dinner-would come back any time because of this. The location is really good, close to beach and shops, marina, restaurants

We stayed at the hotel for three days in June, but managed to enjoy the incredible view of the sea from the room and also just relax

Got a room that smelled of smoke, got a different room the next day, Very small bathroom with almost no storage space, Every time you took a shower the floor was full of water because the door seal was leaky, the wash basin tap was so short that you couldn't wash your fingers without the water spilling over the edge, no information about things that can be used in the hotel and the 2 other hotels that...

parking is slightly complicated, we could park approx 200m away in the hotel’s parking lot, but in the end it wasn’t a big setback. Staff was always kind and smiling, room cleaned every day, towels changed as well

Thanks to everyone who works at the hotel: the girls at the reception helped us with all the questions, thanks for the food, for us it was excellent, and also thanks for the cleanliness of the rooms

His warmth, efficiency, and attention to detail made us feel personally cared for from the very first moment. This level of hospitality is rare and unforgettable. Breakfast was outstanding and deserves special mention

Everything was made on request, beautifully presented, and full of flavour. Freshly squeezed juices, excellent coffee, and truly amazing bread completed the experience — one of the best hotel breakfasts we have had

What truly sets this hotel apart is the service — especially the front-of-house reception. The gentleman at reception was exceptional: genuinely welcoming, highly professional, attentive, and truly one of a kind

The room was beautifully designed, immaculately clean, and very comfortable, combining modern amenities with a refined, classic atmosphere. After a full day of exploring, it was the perfect place to relax

While there is a generous buffet with high-quality options, what makes it exceptional is that it also includes à la carte dishes prepared fresh to order, all included

Overall, Hotel Bastion exceeded expectations in every way. An outstanding location, elegant comfort, exceptional service, and a breakfast experience that truly stands out

They also didn’t keep track of who was entering or leaving the playroom, so kids from the beach wandered in, jumping around wildly

Very good positioned hotel, close to the beach, city center, port, local restaurants… Very good organized hotel, excellent reception, kitchen and restaurant. Evening lice music on the open hotel terrace

The hotel has a great sea view from the room and it is not far from the Old Town. The room was clean,not noisy and big enough for two persons

Staff was kind and helpful, the food was fresh and delicious, so I recommend it for a good vacation. Hotel WiFi also available on the beach

We got also bathrobes/coats as they have pools and SPA, which we did not try, however slippers were not there, I Got only one, my wife none? The restaurant is Nice and breakfast excellent, however we have had bad experience as for two days there was also a group od around 150 Austrian turists - the hotel capacities and staff is not capable to well equiped to handle this

We booked this hotel because it had one of the most affordable offers during peak season, including full board

Very good hotel and delicious breakfast, our room is facing the beach and the swimming pool, walk 20 minutes to sea Organ

Good location near bus station, beach a'd city center. Summing pool is nice. Quite rooms and comfortable. Good welcoming and food is just great 😍🍰! Love it. Surely I will be back and its my best location in Zadar.

Kolovare Hotel is located on Kolovare Beach and has an outdoor swimming pool

Great location, right by the beach and not far from the central bus station and the city center. The rooms are neat and the bathroom is clean. The receptionists and the cleaning staff was very nice and helpful

It is a few minutes away from Zadar Bus Station, about a fifteen-minute walk from Zadar Old Town, and about a 20-minute walk from the Sea Organ. It is quite convenient and offers a decent breakfast

Good location close to attractions and the beach, very good breakfast buffet. The unprofessional reception staff, instead of welcoming us, started informing us about check-in times

What made it special is the exceptional service received — the staff were very friendly, helpful, and always went the extra mile, whether it’s sorting parking, sharing great local tips, or just making sure we felt at home

We stayed at Almayer at the beginning of our Croatia trip, and it was perfect! Very good location (just a minute walk to the old town, the sea and passenger harbour ⛵️🛟)

One strange feature was that we called by late in the afternoon and we were told the restaurant was fully booked that night. Walking past later, we saw several empty tables and were seated

Very nice and clean room with a little balcony (annexe building), comfy bed. Also the breakfast was great (in the little garden), no buffet and very nice options to choose from. I loved the granola with fresh fruits

The room was beautifully designed, and I was especially impressed by the exceptionally high-quality and comfortable bedding and new towels. The hotel radiates elegance, a peaceful atmosphere, and top-level service

This is the best place to stay in Zadar and Hir, so 1. The location is in the heart of the old town, and if you are traveling back in time for the first time in Zadar, this is the best place for 2

What a cool spot in the walled city. The staff was friendly and made our stay pleasant. If you're on an extended road trip through the country and you're renting a car, you will have to park outside the walled city

It's not hard but you will be better off to just bring you overnight clothes with you and leave the rest of your large bag at the car. It's safe and the walk to the hotel is easy and flat

Great breakfast and coffee and service, Very clean and nice/artistic design Great personnel

Loved our stay here. Amazing location, friendly reception staff, and amazing breakfast. Would definitely stay again.

Nice location for exploring Zadar The location was convenient for exploring Zadar. We didn't find some members of the reception or restaurant staff very friendly.

The hotel is clean, the rooms are quite big, and the location is so central. There is a Japanese restaurant downstairs where you can also have breakfast. It takes about 10 minutes to walk to Sea Organ

Great place! Two of us stayed here in August. The location is very close to the old town, just cross the bridge. There are many bakeries, bars, a shop, and a drugstore nearby, so everything you need is nearby

The room and bathroom are in excellent condition. The air conditioning works very well, which was very useful in the heat. All check-in issues were handled via WhatsApp with the lovely owner, Toni

Comfortable and renovated room, in an inconspicuous building. Suitable for a short visit to Zadar. Well located, 5 minutes walk from the center, and with public parking at 0.50 euros per hour and free at night.

Perfect location: practically 30 meters from the pedestrian bridge that connects the historic center to the rest of the city. Two small markets are also available in the immediate vicinity for primary needs

The room was excellent, decorated to a very high standard, crisp white bedding, and a very comfortable bed, with a choice of pillows. Tea and coffee making facilities and a fridge are in the room

The rain shower was excellent, lovely white fluffy towels and toiletries and a hairdryer. We used the balcony a lot, two chairs and a little table, and lovely views across to the city walls

The hotel accommodation conditions are average. It is the cheapest one on this trip. If you are looking for enjoyment, don't choose it. It is about the size of a domestic seaside guesthouse in the 1990s

You can rent beach towels at the Spa for €3 each and keep them for the duration of your stay. The hotel was quiet as it’s pre season and get the impression it gets very busy in high season

Great for little children as the bay is very safe for swimming. Really nice in door heated pool and spa. Biograd town is lovely ,lots of supermarkets within walking distance of each other

Many would reserve multiple spots using towels and sunbeds, sometimes placing them in two or three different shaded areas, up to 30 meters apart, leaving little room for others

Great resort for families with a lot to do for children, multiple playgrounds, a kids program, a kif friendly beach and lots of children for kids to play with.

5hr to Split Don’t depend on hotel for tourist information, they don’t tell you anything ! -do your own research

Didn’t like the first room that had no windows or convenient bench in room, so we switched & staff was helpful. Great area near restaurants, bar, waterbus, boardwalk

Had a minor miscommunication with the host prior to arrival. Otherwise everything was great. Convenient location. Room was great.

The same key works for the front door so am concerner that key coulr be used in any door which is a security concern

This property was beautiful, and the location was ideal. It was beautifully decorated, it was comfortable, and it met all our needs. The parking is a bit tricky, so be careful where you park

Hotel is beautiful with great ambiance. Conveniently located and top room has a fantastic terrace. Only complaint is that they didn’t service the rooms very often.

Fab room in the Old Town Perfect little respite for adventuring around Zadar, or out to the Plitvice Lakes. This room was my little space of heaven with a massive bed and a hot shower

This hotel is located in a remote area, but it has its own parking lot, free parking is convenient, the room is clean, and the service attitude is very good

In addition, the breakfast is rich and cost-effective, so it is recommended to consider it

The room facilities are relatively simple and slightly old, but the cleanliness is acceptable. The lack of an elevator is a bit of an obstacle for ladies.

This is a quiet hotel with a nice pool. You can stay here as your base and enjoy the sunshine. Helpful staff and nice rooms. It may be a taxi ride to the old town but the sea isn't far

The overall feeling is not lost, the hotel decoration is like the 80s and 90s feeling, lack of light, all the electrical appliances in the room have to be separated to switch, the toilet flush can not cover the entire toilet, so there will be urine smell, electrical sockets only two tables

If you are carrying heavy luggage, bring your own strong man, because there is no lift, you have to lift up the stairs, the only good thing is that there is free parking and a terrace to see the beautiful view

The room was beautiful, clean, balcony overlooking the sea. There is even a hot tub to use outside and spa facilities

We recently stayed at a beautiful hotel that truly exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we arrived, the team were incredibly warm and helpful, making me feel welcome straight away

The location could not have been better, set right by the sea with breathtaking views that I never tired of waking up to

Great service, perfect what we were looking for. Spent 1 nt. Quick Uber into Old town. The bar/restaurant staff were very welcoming. We thoroughly enjoyed both dinner and breakfast. Only 25 mins to Zadar aiport.

It was the perfect combination of comfort, great service, and stunning surroundings, and I left already looking forward to returning

Lovely hotel A hidden gem! Fabulous hotel and staff. Everything was great and I will come back. The breakfast was great.

When we booked, we didn't notice that. All restaurants, bars, stores and beach are 5 minutes per foot. All in all, pretty good place for fair price. Our stay was around 1100 euros

The rooms were clean and spacios, although we didn't had fridge and balcony. The pool area was great, the pool is opened from 9-22

We stayed 2 nights and booked 4 bedrooms including breakfast as a group of 8 adults and 2 babies. We did not like that we had to pay for a parking place at the very hotel parking lot, 8 euros per day

Very good service and accomodation requiring an update!

Hotel Lucija is a great value priced hotel to go swimming in the sea. It is in a beautiful location, quiet and has all the necessities. The staff is friendly, and the restaurant is good and well priced

Outstanding visit at this quaint seaside hotel. We were checked in promptly and personally escorted to our comfortable room

Shortly after that we were served an excellent meal in the restaurant -- most certainly the best weinerschnitzel I have ever eaten. After a good night of sleep we enjoyed an outstanding breakfast

Clean,good food and very caring people. The hotel very beautiful location at the shoreside. Private beach.large parking .

We were checked in and out by the same very pleasant lady. She ensured that our every need was met. We would certainly stay here again!

Excellent hotel - well located on lake with private beach. The service is first class - all the staff from the front desk to the dining room are friendly, attentive and efficient

On a small, private beach, lots of pools, good restaurants. Mostly inclusive but most importantly, it has a bath tub!

Very pretty and clean hotel, from the lobby to the rooms. Breakfast was excellent with many choices. Staff were helpful and polite. Close proximity to the old town, by car

Gorgeous hotel with fabulous food on a great beach Great hotel on the beach. Our room 207 looked across the garden to the pool with a glimpse of the sea beyond

Comfortable room and bed although no elevator meant about 40 stairs up to the 2nd floor (3rd floor if you count the main level as 1st floor) staff were all wonderful. Swam in the clean sea but loved the huge pool

We were delighted to find this property on short notice. Location is perfect for walking, beach access, and restaurants. The grounds have a naturally peaceful ambiance

Only regret was not having time to visit the spa with indoor pool and sauna

This is a beach area after all, and I am not sure how it is expected that guests can dry their clothes other than leaving it near the pool area

That works if you use the pool, but what if you go to the beach and come back? This is something the management needs to think about. There are multiple restaurants in this area which is another plus

Rooms and tge bathroom had a nice size and were clean. Restaurant has a seating on the outside patio with opening glass walls so you can enjoy the view even in a bad weather

This hotel is probably one of the cutest in this location. The room is spacious and clean. The bed and pillows are super comfortable. Even my kids sofa bed is comfortable

All in all a smaller hotel in a pleasant willage, where you call stroll along the sea and enjoy the life

The view is amazing and most of all , the staffs are nice. We asked for a late check coz our flight is super late at night and we got an extra an hour and half 😊 all in all , we love this hotel outside the busy zadar !

Very well located, two beaches are 1 minute walk from the accommodation. clean, tidy rooms, mostly with sea view. Highly recommended for the price-value ratio! We will probably visit again

We were in the apartment petra u 2 floor..apartma is biu clean when we arrived..the floor washes all types of melts from the balcony is a sea view..in the evening was the silence..will come..I recommend…

Apartments ok, nice view from the top of the bay, close to both beaches. A small bar with live music next door. The downside is the tight parking lot

Povljana is also a nice little town

Nice daughters of the owner, who know English, unlike the older ones :)

The hotel was nice and the staff too, unfortunately the majority of the staff did not speak English.
