“Excellent stay here - lovely place with great facilities for the family (we were lucky to get early check in too which was amazing). Private pool is a big plus and very spacious rooms. Very much enjoyed our stay here!”
“The house was perfect for our family of 5. The pool was clean and being heated was amazing! The entire home was very well maintained and clean when we arrived. Very comfortable beds and living space. Overall we had an amazing time! 10 minute uber ride to old town Zadar. 3 minutes away from grocery store/gas. This house made our trip one of the best trips we’ve ever had. Antonio was an amazing host who responded quickly to any questions. Highly recommend for families. Thanks for an amazing trip!!”
“Odlična vila za odmor! Tri spavaće sobe, svaka sa svojim WC-om, što je jako praktično. Prostran dnevni boravak i odlično opremljena kuhinja. Bazen, terasa i teren za mini golf su veliki plus, kao i roštilj koji smo koristili.
Domaćin je izuzetno ljubazan – kad smo zaboravili kupiti ulje za palačinke, dao nam je svoje ulje i domaći džem koji sami rade. Stvarno predivna gesta.
Sve preporuke, rado bismo se vratili! 😊”
“Antonio and his son were more than accommodating in making our stay enjoyable! Would recommend to anyone who is looking for an accommodation in Zadar. It was our favorite town in Croatia!”
“Een geweldige villa voor een acceptabele prijs, zeker een aanrader!”
“Ganz tolle Unterkunft mit einer hervorragenden Ausstattung. Antonio stand bei allem Fragen zur Verfügung.
Sehr gerne wieder.”
“This home was perfect for our family of 5, it was spacious and very clean! The pool was a wonderful bonus that our kids enjoyed very much. Antonio is a fantastic host; very responsive and helpful all hours of the day. There was a bit of construction around the home during the day but most of the time we were away so it wasn’t too bad. The house is on the outskirts of town with a large market only 5 minutes away and very easy to drive into the city center. Overall we were very happy with the home and our host and would recommend this place to anyone visiting Zadar!”
“Antonio je vrlo uslužan i vrlo prijateljski nastrojen domaćin.
Apsolutno preporučljivo za obitelj i prijatelje.”
“Angenehme Lage, nahe am Zentrum, ruhig, groß, viel Platz, sehr sauber und ein cooles beheizbares Pool!”
“We stayed at Antonio’s place for 3 nights. Thanks to signs on the street it was easy to find the villa. We really appreaciated self-check in, it was no problem at all that we arrived late in the night. The villa is really beautiful, clean and has all you need for your stay. When we visited across the street there was a construction site, but it was completely fine. Also the views are pretty good, you can see the sea from the pool. Historical centre isnt that far away - 15 min run or like 45 mins walk. Or you can take uber, which is pretty cheap and you are in the centre in few mins. So imo this location is great combination between privacy and accessibility. Last but not least, Antonio was really great host, communicative, kind and friendly. He even allowed us to leave a bit later than 10:00, so we had more time. And he also lives right next to the villa, if anything is needed. I really recommend staying here.”
“The place literally had everything we needed. It was clean and very pleasant to stay at.
The location was convenient as well as it’s just 10 minutes away from the city centre.
Definitely gonna stay here again if I’m visiting zadar:)”
“Antonio was a fantastic host and exceptionally helpful. The apartment was beautifully decorated and sparkling clean.
Each bedroom has an en-suite which made a massive difference to our group. The kitchen was well equipped and the coffee machine and pods were such a lovely gesture from the host but the pool and patio area was the best bit for us. We used uber to and from the town most of the time as it is a reasonable distance to walk.”
“Great house with wonderful amenities. After boating for a week and eating out everyday, we appreciated the kitchen and outdoor barbecue for cooking. The unit was spotless, modern, laid out well and very airy and open. We had a vehicle and found parking to be very easy at the unit, grocery stores, town center etc. we rented 3 units across Croatia and found Antonio to be to the most responsive host. He always got back to our questions within hours if not minutes and was extremely helpful. Thank you for a great, relaxing stay!”
“Einfaches und unkompliziertes einchecken. Konnten früher als die angegeben Zeit einchecken. Außerdem wurde alles gut von Antonio erklärt.
Die Unterkunft ist genauso wie auf den Bildern, sehr schön, schöne große Bäder und der Pool ist ein Traum. Haben uns super wohl gefühlt! Auch, dass jedes Zimmer ein eigenes Bad hat machte das Leben sehr angenehm.
Antonio war jederzeit erreichbar und sofort hilfsbereit.
Ein Supermarkt und ein Bäcker waren fußläufig erreichbar.
Nur der Strand und die Altstadt waren ein kleines Stück entfernt. Aber das war für uns kein Problem und nahmen wir gern in Kauf, da die Villa wie gesagt wunderschön war!
Wir freuen uns in Zukunft die Villa wieder zu besuchen.”
“Very nice place, Antonio was also nearby in case you needed sth.
Pool was big enough. The only thing I did not like was the constructions of new buildings nearby, which made the stay less private.
But great house, great extras also for kids. I can definitely recommend the villa.”
“The house was beautiful. The rooms were very comfortable and the pool was fantastic for the hot days. They brought us clean towels when we needed them. The hosts were very friendly told us where the grocery store was and were very kind. I would highly recommend this place for families coming to Zadar.”
“Great House , clean and like it was described. Very satisfied! Thank you Antonio for your excellent Service! It would be a pleasure to visit the Villa Sportiva again. :-)
Best Regards
David”
“We had a great stay and loved having the space to relax after diving. The house was very clean and the area private. You need a car but that’s why we went for this house as we had parking at the house and plenty of space. The host gave us great food recommendations and was very helpful. The bathrooms are large and the beds comfortable. The air-conditioning also quiet.”
“Die Unterkunft war richtig schön und gepflegt. Es gab keine Probleme. Wir durften am Abreise Tag länger in der Unterkunft bleiben.
Jederzeit wieder.”
“Best Airbnb I’ve ever stayed in! Can’t say anything bad about this listing. It was extremely clean, pool area was impeccable too. Everything just felt very clean & fresh! The property has been very well thought out, with everything we needed already here. Antonio, the host, was very accommodating and quick to respond to any messages. We all wish we’d booked for longer and are sad to be leaving. Will be recommending this property to friends and family. Thank you!”

“Had such a good time at the villa, it was clean, very well equipped and Antonio is a very helpful and responsive host. The location is located 10 mins in the car from the main centre of Zadar. The pool was the highlight of the trip and the rooms were comfortable. There was a little bit of construction noise in the morning during the weekdays however it didn’t bother us too much as we get up pretty early anyway. Would be very happy to stay there again and highly recommend!”
“Aufenthalt sehr zu empfehlen, alles hat einwandfrei funktioniert.
Antonio war ein sehr guter Gastgeber :)”
“We we're so thankful to had Antonio as our host. Very patient and helpful.
The accommodation itself is very nice! Good location und has everything you need.
Can recommend to everyone to stay with Antonio!”
“Wie wurden sehr freundlich empfangen und hatten ein paar sehr schöner Tage, der Gastgeber war was die Ein-u. Auscheckzeiten sehr flexibel und hilfsbereit.
Gute Restaurant-Tipps.
Leider war in der Nähe eine relativ laute Baustelle, aber dafür kann der Hauseigentümer ja nun mal nichts.
Alles in allem alles tip top, wir würden wieder kommen…😀”
“Immaculately decorated house with a large pool, very clean and tidy with all the necessary things for a pleasant stay. The hosts are very friendly and available for all requests. I highly recommend it. We'll be back next year.
Thank you,
Sam”
“Antonio was a wonderful host and let me and my friends really feel at peace - The villa has amazing amenities and was perfectly clean. We had a wonderful time and small details like an ambient light in the pool during the evening and a mini-golf space made our visit even better. Highly recommend!”
“Antonio war sehr proaktiv und hilfsbereit. Die Villa war sehr sauber. super Poolanlage. sehe ruhige Gegend”
“Antonio provided us with nice information for our stay and even organised a cheaper taxi to the airport for us after we left. The place is a bit far from the centre by foot but other than that an exceptionally nice place to stay.”
“Antonio and his family were exceptional hosts from our first enquiry and then throughout our stay. They had considered every detail in providing a wonderful villa where all the facilities exceeded our expectations. They assisted with transfers, keeping us updated with anything that might affect our stay and also offered some unexpected additional thoughtful touches. We would certainly recommend the villa to anyone visiting Zadar.”
“Can't be any better!”

“La villa est très agréable et très soignée, nous étions trois couples, et nous avions chacun notre espace privé. Les informations dans l’annonce correspondent tout à fait à la réalité. Antonio nous a accueilli le jour de notre arrivée et nous a donné toutes les informations nécessaires à notre installation.
Je recommande vivement.”
“Sehr nette Eigentümer..
Der Antonio wohnt mit seiner Familie gegenüber, war immer freundlich und sehr hilfsbereit.
Das Haus ist super ausgestattet und hat alles was man braucht.
Wir empfehlen es sicherlich weiter!
Vielen Dank 😊”
“Wonderful living space. Everything was great. I recommend.”
“Ce n'est pas une maison mais un palace. Le rapport qualité prix est incroyable. De plus il y a plein de petites attentions qui ont été glissées dans chaque pièce de la villa. Vous ne manquerez de rien. Si vous êtes de passage dans la région n'hésitez pas une seconde, plus besoin de chercher vous avez trouvé votre logement. Et cerise sur le gâteau Antonio le propriétaire est là pour vous si besoin. Dix sur dix A++”
“Superbe maison ! Les hôtes sont très gentils, ils habitent à côté de la maison et sont donc très disponibles. La maison est particulièrement bien équipée (une salle de bain par chambre, machine à laver, salle de sport, shampoing, serviettes…). Tout était super propre. La terrasse est très agréable et l’emplacement est idéal car la maison se situe à 10 minutes en voitures du centre-ville. On recommande !”
“Great place to stay”
“This is the BEST Airbnb I have stayed in. The owner and his family picked us up at the airport and dropped us off for our return flight. The man and his wife particularly were delightful. They offered our friends chocolates for their birthdays and gave us a lot of info about where to go, what to visit, the right places to shop etc. The villa is just AMAZING. Rooms are nice and comfy, there is a lot of space, wide windows, beautiful terrasse etc. Thank you for everything :)”
