Ubytování bylo krásné, čisté a výborně vybavené. Na co jsme vzpomněli, to jsme objevili. Dům s terasami super! Nádherný výhled na moře, přes den i v noci. Majitelé byli příjemní a pohostinní. Byli jsme dvě rodiny a využívali jsme hlavně nižší terasu, přírodně zastíněnou před horkem.

Review from: Happy.Rentals
The accommodation was great, clean, relatively new, and really very well equipped - everything we could think of, we found. There was air conditioning in the living room, but we missed it a bit in the bedroom - the apartment is on the top floor, uncovered, so it heats up a lot during the day and at night just a fan isn't enough, it only noisily stirs up the warm air. Sitting outside during the day is also not very comfortable, even with a large sunshade, it's very warm here. As a group, we also rented the lower apartment, which has a nice covered terrace and a pleasant breeze all day, so sitting outside during the day and in the evening was great. The owners are very friendly, and although the accommodation is managed through the Happy Rentals agency, the owners welcomed us nicely, and from the kind owner, we found a homemade dessert waiting for us in the fridge. The only thing that disappointed us a bit was the access to the sea. Although Booking.com did not promise a beach on the site, we kind of hoped that being 800m from the sea according to the map wouldn't be a problem. It takes about 20 minutes to the nearest tiny beach by steep descent along a rocky forest path. To the larger Bobina beach, it takes over half an hour, partly through the woods and partly along a rocky steep trail. Going back up is, of course, all uphill, but I must say that the way back seemed easier to us because we were more careful on the way down. It's more for locals, so if you don't mind a bit of hard work before and after, you'll enjoy the beaches without the commercial influx of tourists. In the end, we chose a half-hour drive to the beaches in Rabac. Otherwise, we really liked the accommodation, and if there had been a pool at the house, we would probably come back again :-)

Dear Marcela, Thank you very much for your detailed feedback and for sharing your experience with us. We are delighted to hear that you found the accommodation clean, well-equipped, and comfortable, and that you appreciated the warm welcome from the owners – including the homemade dessert. Your kind words about their hospitality mean a lot. We are sorry to hear that the heat in the bedroom and the access to the sea were not as convenient as you had hoped. Being on the top floor, the apartment can indeed warm up during the summer, and we will certainly share your comments with the owner so that they can consider possible improvements for future guests. Regarding the sea access, as you mentioned, the property description does not advertise a beach, but we understand how the rocky path and distance might feel more challenging than expected. At the same time, we’re glad you were able to enjoy the more secluded local spots as well as the beautiful beaches of Rabac. We very much appreciate your suggestion about a pool – it is always helpful to know what would make a future stay even more enjoyable. We are pleased that overall you enjoyed your time at the property, and we would be delighted to welcome you back should you return to the area. Best regards, Happy.Rentals Team
