Villa Jo Croatia

Beautifully modern and spacious, Villa Jo, located in the small village of Tinj in Zadar County, is a four bedroom property that can accommodate up to ten guests. Surrounded by stunning Croatian landscape, the villa has white decor throughout, punctuated by rustic style wooden furniture, and accents of black and white for a clean, classic look. The ground floor features a spacious living area, complete with satellite TV, playstation, plush white sofas and contemporary artwork adorning the walls. Two small steps take you through the archway into the adjoining kitchen and dining area, where you’ll find a well-equipped kitchen that has everything you’ll need to feel at home during your stay, including oven and hob, microwave, fridge, kettle, dishwasher and coffee machine. 
The bedrooms are just as fresh, light and airy as the rest of the villa, with one double room situated on the ground floor, and another three on the first floor. One of the first floor rooms includes a double sofa bed, and one has a balcony overlooking the pool – the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee. All of the bedrooms feature extra linens and pillows, as well as plenty of storage for your belongings, and there’s a family bathroom with shower.
The grounds of Villa Jo are equally spacious and include both an adult pool and a child’s pool, as well as comfy sun loungers and parasols, bbq area and shadow gazebo with outside dining table, as well as a private garden area. The kids will be delighted to discover the children’s outdoor play area that features a small climbing frame with a slide and swings, football goals and ping-pong table, all located in a beautifully shaded area.  

The village of Tinj in Zadar County is the perfect holiday location for those who love to be around nature. There are several popular cycle routes in the area – perfect for exploring the stunning Croatian countryside, as well as Vrana Lake, an ornithological reserve, and the famous Kamenjak Viewpoint, from where you can see the Kornati archipelago. The villa is ideally located close to the cities of Biograd, Zadar and Sibenik, popular tourist spots thanks to all of the historical and cultural sites they have to offer. 
Sibenik, the ‘gateway to the Kornati Islands’, should be top of the list for Game of Thrones fans, as many scenes from the hit show were filmed here, and history buffs will enjoy local wonders such as the famous Cathedral of St James, the impressive Franciscan Church and Monastery, and St Michael’s Castle – all stunning pieces of architecture that are well-worth visiting.
This underrated Croatian gem also boasts stunning, uncrowded coastline, and is THE place to find amazing gastronomical delights such as Adriatic lobster, sea bass, squid and langoustines. Be sure to wash it all down with some local Sibenik wine!
For lively, unpretentious and varied nightlife, make sure you head into the city of Zadar after dark. The town’s historic centre is where you’ll find the most buzzing atmosphere, and in the warmer months everyone spills out of the all night cafes and bars and into the streets. You’ll find a great mix of people here as the scene isn’t divided into ‘young’ and ‘old’, so you’ll get to meet an eclectic group of people. If you decide to enjoy a night out here make sure you check out Arsenal Zadar, a lively bar with soaring ceilings that serves as cafe and art gallery by day…but by night is transformed, with a restaurant upstairs and a cocktail bar and stage downstairs. Here you can expect to hear traditional Dalmatian acapella groups, local bands and well-known DJs.
For a more laid back experience visit caffe Bar Brazil which you’ll find down at the waterfront near to the area’s famous Sea Organ art installation. During the day this seaside bar serves up delicious coffees and ice cream, but by the evening you’ll be able to buy a beer or wine to enjoy at one of the tables that spill out into the landscaped gardens and marvel at the incredible views of the gorgeous sunset.
