Avis Angel of the Adriatic

We had a wonderful time. The view is amazing.

In my 1 month stay in Croatia, this was my 4th rental. In all previous places I was not required to give additional money for tourist tax, except for this one. I was required to give the money for tax a couple hours before leaving the rental. The place was not cheap with nice view but in both bathrooms the shower was leaking leaving a massive puddle on the floor. Air conditioning wasn’t working properly and there was difficulties with parking spot.

Wir haben spontan, in der Nacht (23 Uhr), umgebucht, weil wir in Lombarda leider enttäuscht wurden. Gleich am nächsten Tag konnten wir Dieses Appartment beziehen und es hat uns den Urlaub gerettet. Die Vermieter sind äußerst freundlich und sehr bemüht! Die Lage und die Aussicht sind ein Traum! War sicher nicht das letzte Mal! Sowohl der Ort als auch die Unterkunft sind unvergesslich.

Very nice Apartment with superb view from the balcony and direct access to the water. We loved it. The town of Zavalatica is also really nice, just the right size where you can find everything you need (Restaurants, a Bar, a Supermarket, a Wine dealer, an ATM), do not expect nightlife. And the caretaker of the house is fantastic, she helped us with everything from organizing a boat trip to finding a way for a Corona Test. She would get ten stars from us!

Grand appartement avec une vue splendide depuis la terrasse. Accès direct à la mer par un chemin et une échelle (attention, vous n'aurez plus pied très rapidement). Idéal pour se ressourcer (pas de télévision mais un bon réseau wifi). Un grille pain et le fer à repasser seraient un plus. Cuisine bien équipée. Si vous utilisez la machine à laver le linge, elle est un peu dure à ouvrir.

We had a four night stay at the apartment in July 2019 and travelled by car from Dubrovnik. It is a long drive but worth it as you travel through very interesting villages and a large wine growing area. Zavalitica is on the other side of the island from Korcula Old Town and is a very small village with a peaceful atmosphere. We were in the ground apartment which has a large balcony overlooking the Adriatic and the small harbour. The apartment is furnished with the basics that you need for a holiday break. The only thing missing was a kettle which was provided when we asked. It would be helpful if instructions are provided for the appliances (and wifi code) as the washing machine decided to eat our clothes and someone had to be called out to try and open it which took three hours. There is no TV but the wifi signal is good. The main bedroom has large sliding doors which gives a view over the sea. The shutters in the main bedroom and living area help to keep out the very early summer sun in the mornings. The air-conditioning was a life saver as it was very hot during our visit and it would have been unbearable otherwise. There are stone steps that lead from the apartment directly to the sea below. The walk is about 100m and easy enough but look out for the uneven areas. The steps leading into the sea are well secured and make it very easy to go for a quick dip which we did several times daily. Please take care as it gets deep very quickly and there are sharp rocks so it is recommended to wear aquashoes or flip flops. The area is good for snorkelling. The village has a small store for the basics but the variety is very limited (we could not find eggs for example) so rather do the food shopping at the larger stores in Korcula town. There are a few restaurants in the village, if you like seafood you are in luck but if you are a vegetarian not so much which seemed to be a general trend in this part of Croatia. We would highly recommend this apartment if you want to get away from it all and have a very peaceful break in beautiful surroundings. The locals are friendly and interesting and you get a real sense of having escaped from the big, busy world (in our case London). It was very hard to leave.

We had a wonderfull vacation in the house, The location is perfect for relaxing, swimming and snorkling. The view from the balcony is spectacular. A very light and "friendly" appartment. The little town is quiet, just what we needed. It could become our favorite return place for vacation. If we return it would be nice if the kitchen was then equipped with more plates, cutting knifes, a grater, a toatser, a chopping board.
