To my great surprise, I realised that I hadn’t ever had a chance to explore the Zadar Riviera. To fix this terrible miscomprehension, I seized the opportunity and extended my stay. The Petrсane Resort was chosen at random – a literal roll of the dice.
After getting all my work issues settled, I rented a hotel room with the decadent plans of spending a sunny day at the seaside…
… but towards the end of this miraculous day Petrсane Resort has became a firm entry on my personal top of favourite places to visit on the Croatian coastline. But let’s out it aside for now because I want to say a few words about the hotel:
I was definitely not wrong for choosing this particular hotel. Tidy hotel Pinja 4* is located right at the seaside, and it has all you may ever need to make your seaside vacation unforgettable: the vast beaches, the spacious parking and the well-equipped terrains with tennis courts, playgrounds, ping-pong and mini-golf.

This hotel is perfectly suited for the summer trio with kids of all ages, as well as the calm early autumn get-away.
However, the main advantage of the Pinja Hotel were the long pebble beaches, where you may comfortable rest in a shadow of a pine tree, while breathing in the unmatchable pine and sea salt infused air that you can only expierence in Dalmatia
And a bit more landscape memories ;))
I want to talk separately about the evening meal outing.
The decision to not buy dinner in the hotel was made deliberately, despite the rather tempting offer.
That evening, all I wanted was the authentic Mediterranean cousine witn the view opening out to sea, drowning in it’s unique omnipresent seaside air…
All went according to plan ) mission successful ))
Have a great vacation on Petrcane resort!
