Villa Nika with pool & parking near Zadar

Für ein Appartement ist die Küche leider sehr spärlich ausgestattet.

The pool was great! Very good if you are travelling with kids. The apartment was ok. Main issue was that the air conditioning only cooled the living/kitchen and struggled to reach the main bedroom and even the mezzanine level. And the little deck had two air con units on it and was a bit run down. Staff were lovely and efficient.

We arrived at Vila Nika to discover that it had been booked already but the owner gave us a room in the Boutique Cosmopolis situated opposite. The view was much prettier, we could see the sunset on the sea, it was beautiful. However there was no kitchenette so we struggled a fair bit in terms of cleaning cups/spoons/etc where we had to use the sink in the bathroom. We had the biggest queen bed ever and the kids slept on the sofa bed. The air con was working. Do bring your soap and shampoos, coffee and milk sachets as literally nothing else is provided apart from towels and beddings. The pool was beautiful and very clean. We spent 2 whole afternoons there as there are plenty of chairs/beds to sunbathe. The beach was a 7 minutes walk and was beautiful but do bring water shoes as we got lots of cuts on our feet from the rocks. Plenty of restaurants nearby. We particularly enjoyed the nearby Kebab shop, the nearby bakery that also does pizzas and 10 minutes away Roko, a popular local restaurant. We took an Uber to Zadar one day which was £10 one way. The bus to Zadar is not reliable we were told and anyway only comes once an hour.
