Family-friendly vacation rentals in Balkans

Mia has a beautiful home. It was lovely! The garden in the back, the patio and the gorgeous sun room were fantastic. Mia’s mother delivered lovely pastries from her shop and some delicious local prosciutto. She was super responsive to anything we needed. The location was fantastic. We just hopped on the tram and went into the city. The layout was great for 5 people. HIGHLY recommend

We loved staying in the restored old stone house in the heart of Motovun, and Goran was an easygoing, helpful and welcoming host!

We had a great stay at Alberico’s place. The house was nice clean and beautiful. Within a short drive to many places on the Amalfi Coast. Alberico and his wife were very helpful with recommendations and and very responsive. Thank you we will be back!

I had a wonderful stay at this house. It’s located in a quiet countryside setting, perfect for a relaxing getaway. The highlight of the stay was definitely the jacuzzi and sauna, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The house itself is clean, well-maintained, and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The hosts were friendly and responsive, making sure everything was perfect. If you’re looking for a peaceful retreat with great amenities, this place is a fantastic choice. Highly recommend!

Very nice cute little house. We had fun with (the bread) fire oven. Good to take some days off and read books. Thanks!!

Very helpful host from time of booking to check out. Would highly recommend. Villa was stunning with beautiful views.

Lovely location but quite small if the party was 4 - sadly had others join me so had to move to larger location but very good for 1 or 2 adults or family with 2 small children for short stay.

We had such a wonderful time staying here. It's about a 30 minute walk to the centre of Split, which is absolutely magical. But sometimes just sitting outside or in the hottub and staring at the beautiful scenery was enough for us. Such a wonderful luxurious experience - and a very special thanks to Katarina who was incredibly responsive and helpful whenever we had questions.

Beautiful place, beautiful view of the bay, very nice and communicative host. The water in the bay is very clean and clear, it's a good idea to bring a swimming mask, under the water surface you will encounter a lot of fish. A beach made of small pebbles is clean and well-maintained. The tap water is not drinkable (due to the salty taste), but hosts easily provide good water. We were with a small dog, which was no problem in the hosts building. However, you should know that there are signs at the entrance to the beach that prohibit dogs, but with reasonable care, no one pays attention to them, so it's not a problem either. Getting to the bay can be quite difficult for not very good drivers, the roads to Hvar are winding, sloping and often unsecured. However, it will be a great adventure for people who like to drive. In summary: I would definitely recommend this place and the host, choosing an apartment here you will get beautiful views, silence and unforgettable experience.

Everything the space was meant for it had. If you like to rent your own vehicle you can, but apon asking every taxi and transport was easy to do. Plenty to do on the island. Some very good restaurants and some of the clearest water I’ve ever seen in an ocean. Hope to be back soon to show my friends/family.

What a great and beautiful place! Olga is an amazing host, very friendly! Her place is a great home to relax, close to the beach, everything you need is few minutes away by walking! Toroni is very beautyful and a great place for families with kids! ♥️

This apartment was in a perfect location for exploring the area, eating at great restaurants, having drinks by the sea, relaxing, or just going to the market for snacks. I’d definitely stay here again! The apartment is well-equipped for cooking and eating in, comfortable, quiet, beautiful view of the marina, and a working a/c. One night, I took my drink outside and sat on the bench at the bottom of the stairs. Here, you can be as active or relaxed as you like. I will note for all who go to Red Island, take cash! They only take cash on the island for water sport rentals. If you use a lounge chair, it’s likely a person from the hotel will come and collect 10€. 👍🏻 anyhoo - great apartment, Milica! You have a gem. Grazie mille! Ci vediamo (spero).

I really enjoyed the accommodation of Natalija and her husband. It is very large and I lacked nothing. I was warmly received and felt comfortable from the beginning. I especially remember the shelties, which are fascinating with their kind and I loved it right away. I highly recommend it and would definitely come back.

Peaceful, quiet, spacious and very clean apartment. Ljiljana was very welcoming host.

Flat is easy to reach by car, address and instructions was provided after booking. Marko provided us some kitchen equipment on our request, fastly responded, answered all our questions. Kitchen is tiny, but enough for one night booking. There is a table inside and additional one in the yard. Generally all was fine, as expected.

All goods 😊 very accommodating and friendly landlady. The apartment was practical and yet comfortably furnished. Sauna and pool were clean.

Anita's home was better than we expected. The pictures do not do it justice. In the main accomodation there were six adults. It never felt cramped. We had two adults in the adjoining space and they were very comfortable. Both places were spotless. The pool area was great and perfect for having a beer after a day in the hot Croatian sun. The sun room was amazing. Anita greeted us. It was a good thing as it would have been a little difficult to find. If you are flying in to Split, and Anita offers you to get picked up, do it. The price is reasonable and you are so much better off if the driver knows the area. We went to an island tour, went to Split and to Krka National park and visted Old Town. Every meet up place was walking distance from the home. Old town was a 10 minute walk. This place is a gem - book it.

I can recommand Dragans place, as he is a great host, the place with pool is really nice and there is so much do do and explore in this area! I will come again!

What an amazing property! Super big with amazing bedrooms, communal spaces and pool area as well as many balconies! The location is amazing - just a short walk to Nadur centre (which has lots of shops and restaurants and is beautiful) and also opposite a bus stop to the beach - we also walked. The home was so clean and the hosts were attentive and welcoming. I’d reccomend to anyone and we already plan to come back! Thanks for an amazing stay :)

We have enjoyed the stay very much. Than place is gorgeous! The Villa has a remarkable outdoor space, a lot of space and a lot of things to do.

We stayed at this villa for a company team-building trip and had a great experience. The villa is spacious and well set up, with everything we needed to live and work comfortably. There were large common areas where we could eat and work together without any issues. During our free time, we really enjoyed the pool and the games room — perfect for relaxing and having some fun. A big thanks to Andrew, who was always available when we needed help and responded quickly and kindly. Highly recommended!

We had a fabulous stay at Anida’s place. Fantastic location, in the centre of the Old Town, close to everything. Our kids enjoyed the pool and the space in the apartment. Anida and her whole family are super friendly and always there to help and provide insightful recommendations. Wholeheartedly recommend staying here.

We had a very nice stay at Victor’s farmhouse in Xhagra. The location must be one of the closest to Ramla Bay that are available as vacation rentals. The beach can even be reached by a nice walk (when it’s not too hot). The shortest drive to the neighboring village Nadur actually passes through Ramla Bay. The house itself is beautiful, cozy, has all that’s needed for a family or group vacation, has a nice pool and BBQ, and last but not least you can see the Mediterranean from the house. One potential issue for guests who are sensitive to noise from neighbors (or worries about own noise), while the walls are thick, they are not sound proof, so we could hear some noise from the neighbors at times. Overall a very respectful and quiet neighborhood, however. Victor was a great host and always available with friendly support when needed (like asking for extra sheets etc.)

Ana and her dad, who welcomed us, were amazing. They helped out in every situation and made this apartment really a home. We really liked it in Pula and enjoyed our time.
