Renovated to a high standard the house comfortably sleeps 8-10 people in 4 well-furnished bedrooms. A spacious fully equipped open-plan kitchen and living/dining room with a beamed ceiling and cosy seating for 8 people are on the ground floor. French windows open to a large partly covered terrace with BBQ, table, chairs and sun loungers. Ground floor twin bedroom and separate bathroom provide comfortable and easily accessible accommodation. Additional seating and storage space are in the adjacent spacious hall area.
A beautiful original stone staircase leads to the first floor where you will find a large master bedroom with en-suite bathroom, two spacious double bedrooms and another bathroom. French window in the landing area opens to a terrace perfect for enjoying morning coffee or the spectacular view of the sunrise over the Rasa Bay.

Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt. In allen Räumen gibt es eine Klimaanlage. Es war alles sauber. Bei kleinen Anliegen war der Kontakt mit der Vermieterin schnell und unkompliziert per Mail.

Perfect beaches and great location
We had a great vacation with our kids and our dogs in Rakalj. The house is located centrally in the small village, but nevertheless it is also calm as there is really not much traffic at all. The supermarket is just around the corner, well equipped with the everyday needs. House is comfortable, very good climatisation and a nice patio (shadow). Communication was fast and always friendly. Thanks for being our hosts.

Sehr schönes Haus
Das Haus hat uns sehr gut gefallen. Es hat alles gut gepasst und nichts hat gefehlt. Die Klimaanlagen in den Zimmern sind zum Schlafen Gold wert! Der Kontakt zur Vermieterin war ausgesprochen freundlich und leicht. Der Strand ist mit dem Auto gut zu erreichen und einfach traumhaft: am Ende der Dorfstraße einfach rechts abbiegen und immer geradeaus bis es nicht mehr weitergeht und dann genießen!

Schönes Haus mit kleinen Mängeln
Schönes Haus was einigen Reparaturen bedarf die hoffentlich bei dieser Preisklasse durchgeführt werden . Fenster,Abfluss Dusche OG , Gartenmöbel etc. . Leider wird die Bettwäsche und Handtücher nur nach Aufforderung gewechselt. Wobei ich die Kommunikation mit der Vermieterin sehr loben muss . Der Ort ist sehr schön wir waren schon des Öfteren da und werden auch weiter nach Rakalj fahren .

Wonderful!
I really enjoyed staying in this house! Clean, spacious, furnished with great taste and provided with all that is necessary! The outer space, also equipped , we used it and enjoyed it alot with our children for lunches and dinners. The house is in a very pretty and charming village, near a little market, a beautiful and gorgeous sea and not far away from many places of interest. The owner has been very kind, thorough and available. Wonderful experience definitely worth repeating.

Ein sehr schon und wohnlich eingerichtetes Haus, wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt!
Das sehr schöne und wohnlich eingerichtete Haus liegt in einem beschaulichen Dorf, sehr netter kleiner Laden, bei dem wir täglich frisches Brot geholt haben. Der Hausstrand ist wirklich sehr nah und wenige Leute. Das Wasser wunderbar. Im gesamten ein schöner Ort für erholsame Ferien. Die Kommunikation mit den Vermietern war sehr direkt, hilfreich und unkompliziert.
