Excellent place right by the water with direct access to the beach. With the free beach towels, chairs, umbrella and paddle boards. We had an amazing sunset dinner experience with the freshly caught seafood. Easy rides to Split for other activities.

Very friendly and helpful staff. They offered us to wash our laundry and dry them for us. Drinking coffee by the balcony and chat with the staff for advices.

It is our first stop in Croatia and we are very with this beautiful place and will definitely come back again.

Don’t question it……STAY HERE!!

Villa Zanic has easily been a 10/10. If we could give it a higher score we would. Mickey the receptionist was an absolute gem…so friendly, helpful and a wealth of information. Mladen the manager was also so kind and a joy to visit with. He made us the most amazing breakfast and delicious coffee each morning (for a fee). It was wonderful to enjoy the views from the deck and have some great conversation with him.
Our room was spotlessly clean and well equipped and we loved our deck!! The beds and pillows were a dream to sleep on and the air conditioning in each room made sleeping so comfortable. The walk in rain shower was wonderful to use everyday and unlimited hot water!
We loved having the beach outside our door with pool toys to use, deck chairs and umbrellas for free. It was also nice to have onsite parking.
We were only a short Uber ride to Split which was recommended because of parking issues in the downtown area. The restaurants in the vicinity are wonderful but especially the one right across the street Dioklecijan… absolute best service and the most delicious food!
We can’t say enough good about this place. It was an absolute pleasure. Thank you for having us… you are all so wonderful. Keep up the great job!!

There are many dining options and small shops are nearby. The room overlooks the beach and we heard the sea every minute of our stay, which is perfect. The staff are excellent. Mladen gave us recommendations what to see and how to get around. All in all it was a very pleasant stay. Thank you.

Was a bit concerned with checkout where the proprietor said that the Hotel does not take credit card and I must pay cash (mentioning a nearby ATM). I said to proprietor I was worried about ATM hacking (by skimmer) and using foreign ATM's may have other risks. Proprietor kindly said I could pay by sending Euros to his wife's iban bank account, so doing that option. I mentioned that it would be nice to list cash payment policy on Expedia site as Expedia seems to be the contractor for making the agreement/deal on the booking. Otherwise customers cannot estimate how much cash to bring on foreign travel if a hotel demand pops up at the last moment.

Fabulous holiday

We drove from the UK and on arrival 2.5 days after leaving we were welcomed by Mlan and told we could check in straight away(we were a little early) for which we were very grateful.
Both Mlan n Marriana were very friendly and helpful, often checking if we were ok and whether there was anything we needed.
Our room had a balcony which opened straight on to the beach which was great.
The beach is pebbly suggest you bring something for your feet when walking into the sea.
Local supermarkets very close and a way to keep spending lower as you don't need to eat out every night.
Bus into Split was busy but dropped us right by the market and the Old Town.
We drove to the Skywalk in the Biokovo national park which was worth the journey but there also organised trips.
This is a very relaxed and friendly hotel, lovely views from the reception up n down to coast and across to Brac. We will definitely be returning in the hope that we will be able to manage to stand on the paddlebord. Thanks for a great stay.

Location is fantastic, right on the beach, free sun loungers and umbrella as well as use of a paddle board.
Beaches here are rocky so we bought some swimming shoes in nearby Omis, which worked a treat.
The owners were very welcoming and made us feel at home. Nothing was too much trouble for them and they take care of a lot of lovely details that make the stay enjoyable. Also the breakfast is incredible!
Parking is a bit tight and you need good driving skills sometimes to go in and out.
Rooms were nice and very clean. View of the sea from the balcony was awesome.
There is a supermarket just crossing the road and a little fridge in the room in case you need it.
Wifi connection is great! So is an extra point for this place.
It is definitely in my list to come back in the future, we had a lovely and relaxing holidays here. Thank you for making this possible (:

The location owners meet us to make sure we ok with the changes which is a great customer service. Parking is good at the location. The breakfast is a basic continental. The beach a short walk great restaurants to choose from on the beach. You can take a bus on to split about a 15 min ride the bust stops across the street. Just a note the bus is very crowded coming back around 4 would suggest coming back after 6

Oasis in Podstrana

We stayed for 3 nights and fell in love with this place and the area. What an awesome getaway from the hustle/bustle of Split. Our room was literally steps from the beach (rocky beach so bring aqua socks!). The hostess who greeted us (Mariana) was super friendly and helpful. She even did a load of laundry for us, which was appreciated. Beach towels were lent out and guests had access to umbrellas and beach chairs. There was even a kayak you could use.
The room itself was small but had everything we needed. It was clean, air con worked great and had the best wifi we've had throughout our whole 10 day trip of Coatia! The best part - the view of the ocean. Totally coming here again and recommend it to everyone!

We arrived late and were met for late check in, which was good. However, the next morning when I tried to shower there was no hot water (even though I had turned the hot water switch on a few hours before my shower). The bathroom is incredibly small, as in, the door would only open to a 90 degree angle because it was hitting the toilet. Additionally, very few of the TV channels were working (we don’t usually watch TV on vacations but the weather was horrible and it was the only other thing to do.) Lastly, this place is about a 30 minute drive (if not more with all the traffic) from Split, so it takes some planning to sightsee as there is hardly anything around the hotel/area.

We loved this place

We had a wonderful time here. We were going just to stay 2 days and the remaining 5 days of our vacations in other places, but decided to stay here afraid that we won’t be able to find anything better. This is family owned and managed, and they go the extra mile to be sure you have a great time.

Literately 10 steps from the beach, small but wonderful beach. The breakfast is not a buffet as we know it but more like a “personal” buffet on your table, with all fresh ingredients. The rooms seem recently renovated, with new and solid doors windows and shades, and have a wonderful balcony where you can see the sea and of course the sunset.

Location was perfect for us. This place is few miles from Split and there is bus service in case you need. We rented a car and there is a parking lot o n site, a little tight for the “American” standard parking lot size, but there is a bigger lot right across the street. The beach is wonderful and if that is what you are looking for, you don’t need to go nowhere else. There are some restaurants around and supermarkets

Lovely small hotel by the sea.

We found this hotel through Expedia and it proved to be a little gem. Remember this is simply a 3 star hotel. We have to tell you that we have been in 4 star establishments that couldn't hold a candle to this one. The room was clean, big enough, excellent bathroom and we'll stocked with coffee, tea, etc. The balcony was really welcome and allowed relaxing \"sun\" time in private. It also had a lime tree growing part way in front that allowed some shade in the hottest times of the day. Much appreciated. The beach (shingle) was next to the hotel with the sea 5m away. The breakfast was really good and substantial. The staff were excellent and VERY helpful. We had a major breakdown in our hire car. At 10pm the staff came out to help us deal with a repair man and get us back on the road. The hotel owner drove us to a restaurant high in the hills and difficult to get to then picked us up after the meal without any charge. Beat that if you can! There were 5 restaurants, from high price to low, within a 300m beach stroll in either direction. Watching the sunset from our bacony was awesome.
All in all an excellent experience for us and we would recommend this hotel to you.

If you are looking for a beach hotel then this is ideal as there are simply some steps down and you are on the beach. The hotel has sun loungers and umbrellas for your use. There are a couple of bars to the right and a couple of restaurants to the left, although be aware that these all get incresibly busy in high season.

1 week getaway with friend

Villa's staff was wonderful and willing to help. They also can arrange airport pick up and drop off for $30€ each way. It is a family run villa. Cleaning lady was amazing, treated the facility as if she owned it, always offering coffee or tea. Right on the beach, could view beach from terrace. 6 steps sway from the beach. Beach is a pebble stone beach, bring swim shoes as sea is also rocky.

20-30 min bus ride to Split its cost 12 kunas one direction on the dalmatinac bus (a private company, a faster route with A/C) 13 kunas on the local cities yellow busy ( no a/c and a slower route).

Many near buy restaurants for food and drinks. Grocery stores a 1min walk. Villa has 2 stove burners and fridge (no oven) cutlery, cups, plates, etc included in room.

A city called Omis is in the opposite direction of Split, also a 30min ride costs 14 kunas. Very nice city with a sand beach.

Wifi is available, but works in lobby only, however a VIP tourist tariff sim card can be purchased at most tisaks in split for $10€ for a week that includes unlimited data but after 20GB the speed slows down.

Waking up to the sound of the waves

We were very satisfied with this apartment. We have arrived from Manchester very late in the evening with a 4 year old child and wanted an accommodation near Split which would be easy to reach from the airport and allow a quick access to Split old town, plus possible beach.
We were very positively surprised by the location of the building very very close to the beach! With the window open we could hear gentle waves splashing on the shore. Just few steps down was a lovely little pebble beach.
Staff was very friendly -they waited well after 23:00 for us to arrive from the airport and they explained everything well.
Breakfast was not expensive and of a great quality on a terrace with a wonderful view (same as from our apartment).
The parking was private and easy as opposed to some problems with the parking which we have encountered later in Croatia. Short driving distance to Split. Also the little beach was very pleasant although with pebbles like the most beaches in Croatia.

Villa Zanic is good

It is on the beach side of the road, has its own section of beach and rooms have balconies where you can sit privately if you wish. There are shops, buses and restaurants within easy walking distance. The staff offer information on all of these. It is reasonably priced as apartments have full cooking facilities and plenty of room. We ate at Amigos restaurant, perfectly OK for about £20 each but pricey by Croatian standards. Cetina Gorge is a difficult drive but has lots of locals selling local plonk, meats, cheeses and spirits (quality variable!). Apparently there are good waterfalls but we missed them.

Our gps had the wrong location; if it happens to you remember the hotel is directly on the water not inland. Nice people and a pleasant place.

Lovely people, great location, right on the beach.

Not really a hotel, more like a guest house. Family live on site. Our room no. 6 was very modern & comfortable, balcony overlooking beach. No English breakfast in hotel or surrounding area, so be prepared. No bar or entertainment in hotel, which suited us fine. It was very peaceful & relaxing just what we wanted. Our room was room only but we did ask for and got a kettle, there was also a fridge just outside the room. Loved sitting in bed looking out to sea. Or lunch on balcony. 2 supermarkets in walking distance and 2 open restaurants (low season) I excellent Amigoes the other not so good. The owner provided transfer to & from airport 30/40 mins. very friendly. Pebbly beach, take some sea shoes. Bus stop 5 mins away, 15 mins on bus to Omis or Split opposite way both worth a visit. If you are looking for lively, don't go here try Split.

Nice apartment with beach literally on your doorst

Apartment was quite basic but clean and with everything you need. The beach was literally a few steps away and the owners are absolutely lovely. Podstrana itself is very quiet but with a few nice restaurants and perfect to get away from it all. You can pick up a bus right outside for either split or omis (cost under £2 each one way). We will definitely return.

Perfect for a short break, sun sea and good food

The apartment was perfectly situated overlooking the Adriatic Sea. There was a balcony with table and chairs and then straight out onto the beach with a very short walk to the sea. The room had a double and a put you up bed with beautiful hand made lace edging on sheets and pillow cases.
The staff were few but could not do enough for you especially the owners son and his brother who ran the taxi. They were delightful. Breakfast was fresh and plentiful and a very good price. English was not widely spoken which was lovely. Most of the people staying seemed to be Croatian and were all very nice. Local amenities are few, just about 5 bar restaurants along the beach and a supermarket on the main road. All only a few minutes walk away and everywhere felt very safe even walking back in the dark. The beach was pebbly so shoes needed.

Nice holiday !!!!

Little family hotel , situated in Postrana at 15 min by car from Split.(30min from the airport)
Very nice people
The studio was big enough for 3 persons , well adjusted and cosy.
You will need to clean your room by yourself , they never come to clean for a week , but they give us new towels every 2 days.
When you go outside you will have a private beach ( need to buy some beach shoes because it's a rock beach ;-) )
The best way to travel around it's to rent a car (35£ per day, insurance include, for 2 drivers)
You have buses as well every 30min to go to split or further down to Omis just near the hotel.
Very quiet and relax area.
Will definitely recommend this hotel if you want a relax time

Trivelig sted med stor gjestfrihet

Veldig fin plassering med havet rett ved hotellet. Vi fikk leilighet med stor veranda og utgang rett til stranden. Aircondition fungerte godt i leiligheten vi hadde.
De som driver stedet var veldig hyggelige og gjestfrie.
Vi fikk nye håndklær annenhver dag og egne strandhåndduker vi kunne benytte på stedets egne strandsone. Det ble sagt at de skulle vaske hver femte dag, men det ble ikke vasket på badet, gulvet og på overflater i leiligheten i løpet av de 14 dagene vi var der.
Det var egne solsenger og parasoll som vi kunne benytte uten at det kostet noe ekstra.
Noe utfordrende å komme seg inn til Split på grunn av mye trafikk mellom Podstrana og Split.

Perfekt placering og fantastisk venlig service

Pension Zanic er et lille familiedrevet sted, som virkelig går op i at deres gæster har det godt.
Stedet lå helt ud til strandpromenaden og der var et lille privatområde med solvogne og så tog man sin egen parasol med fra terrassen. Alle værelser havde terrasse eller altan udtil stranden. Området var roligt og man kunne sagtens sove med åbent vindue ud mod promenaden og høre bølgernes roligende lyd om natten.
Stedet havde paddleboards og andet vandudstyr til fri afbenyttelse.
Der er masser af restauranter, snackbarer og isboder langs vandet og supermarked lå lige på den anden side af vejen. Der er gode busforbindelser til både Split og Omis.
Kan virkelig anbefale stedet.

Dejligt hotel lige på stranden

Yderst hjælpsom og venlig personale - MEGET imødekommende.
Parkering er lidt en tetris opgave, men igen - personalet meget hjælpsomme.
Vi blev tilbudt rengøring hver dag, men vi havde ikke behov.
Fin morgenmad som man kan tilkøbe på stedet.
Rygepolitikken i Kroatien lader til at være mindre restriktiv end i Danmark. Der er rygefri værelser, men på balkon/terrasse er det tilladt. Der kunne også ryges på restauranter. Der var vi ikke forberedt på.

Perfect place to chill and swim

Very nice place. Close to Split and right by the beach. Lots of restaurants nearby with plenty of choice's. Shop's, and bakery nearby. EV chargers right by as well. The beaches were not crowded either.
Room was clean, service was excellent, the host was very nice and always ready to help with anything.
Sunbeds, umbrellas, SUP, and toys for children can be used free of charge. There was nothing negative about this place.

Having all this amenities nearby and being able to just walk straight from the room to the beach made for a very relaxing holiday.

Wold recommend it every day.

Detta var en av de bästa hotellvistelser jag haft.
En litet personligt mellanklasshotell. Superfräscht
Hotellet ligger bara några trappsteg från strandkanten
Gratis solstolar och parasoll vilket inte andra hotell erbjuder
Perfekt läge med några restauranger i närheten
Tack för 5 bra nätter Mladen och Mikki😊

Vi är mer än nöjda med vår vistelse på Villa Zanic. Engagerad, service-minded och jättetrevlig värd! Vi hade ett rum med bara några meter till stranden som tillhör boendet. Där fanns gott om solbäddar och varje rum har ett parasoll. Rummet är inte det största men har det som behövs. Helt ok säng och sköna kuddar. AC och wifi som oftast fungerade bra på rummet.

Nära till livsmedelsbutik (obs stänger kl 21) och några restauranger som är helt ok. Förutom härligt strandhäng finns det inte så mycket att se och göra i direkta närområdet men det är inte långt till Split. En Uber dit kostade för oss ca 9 euro. Vi kan också rekommendera en tur till en fantastisk restaurang med magiskt utsikt, Argola.

Stort tack till Villa Zanic för en härlig vecka!

Olimme pojan kanssa kaksin Podstranassa kokonaisen viikon. Villa Zanic on ihana paikka! Meillä oli pieni studiohuoneisto alimmassa kerroksessa. Huoneen terassilta oli aivan ihana merinäkymä ja muutama askel kävelykadun yli omalle rannalle. Huoneistoon kuuluu omat rantatuolit ja aurinkovarjot, terassilla pöytä ja tuolit sekä kuivausteline.
Meidän huone oli aika pieni yksiö, jossa kylpyhuone, pieni keittiönurkkaus, sänky, pöytä ja vaatekaappi. Hotellissa on myös isompia huoneistoja. Huone oli tosi siisti ja siivous oli mahdollista saada päivittäin. Rakennus yleensäkin pidettiin siistinä ja siitä sekä ympäristöstä pidettiin huolta.
Paikassa on ihana, tosi palvelualtis henkilökunta, jolta voi pyytää apua mihin vaan. Ravintolaa ei ole, mutta aamiaista saa tilaamalla edellispäivänä. Kahvia ja virvokkeita tarjoillaan vieraanvaraisesti ilmaiseksi.

Villa Zanic ja koko seutu on rauhallinen.
Lähiympäristössä on muutamia ravintoloita ja pari kauppaa.
Myös bussipysäkki on lähellä ja bussilla numero 60 pääsee puolen tunnin välein Splitiin. Aikataulut eivät tosin pidä ja tie Splitiin on melko ruuhkainen, myös busseissa on paljon matkustajia.

Suosittelen lämpimästi Villa Zanicia ja Podstranaa.

Hotellet ligger helt fantastisk med ca 10 meter till strand/ hav. Rummen är av enklare modell men har allt man behöver. Vi hade en egen terass vilket gjorde att vårt lilla boende kändes mycket större. Det märktes att det är ett familje hotell och alla som jobbar är helt fantastiska. Fin service och väldigt hjälpsamma!
Finns en strandpromenad som leder till 2 olika restauranger som är trevliga men dyra!
Finns 2 små affär väldigt nära.
Stannade 3 nätter vilket nog var lagom då det inte finns jättemycket att utforska kring hotellet.
Uber appen är verkligen att rekommenderas även om buss finns nära.
Åter igen, personalen helt fantastiska och läget på boende tycker jag det är ett bra boende.
Obs, stenig strand och krävs badskor men är detta är väldig vanligt i Kroatien.
Solstolar och paddel board ingår
Söker man lugnet är detta bra!

Best villa/pension we have had in the Balkans!

Definetly a 10/10 hotel/pension.

We stayed in room 1. A cozy nice room 5m from the beach. All rooms comes with either a balcony or a nice veranda with lovely seaview. There are free sunbeds and umbrellas on the beach.

The rooms are clean and got all you need. Good bed, clean bathroom, AC, fridge, equipped kitchen.

There is a parking right outside which is very convinient if you arrive by car. Pretty small parking spaces but nothing you can not handle.

The staff is lovely. The make sure all the time that you are satisfied. Got offered cold drink or coffee several times.

There is a bus stop just outside the hotel where you can catch the bus every 30min into Split for a 25min ride. It costs 2,5€.

There is also a small grocery store 250m away where you can buy your breakfast and watch the sunrise from your veranda/balcony.

Can’t recommend this enough!
