Vacation rentals in Podstene pri Kostelu

When we booked Klaudia’s place a few months ago, Cres was just a name on a map—but what we found was a hidden gem. Beli village is truly special: full of soul, history, and wild, untouched beauty. We hiked through ancient olive groves, swam in quiet coves, and watched griffon vultures soaring overhead. The nature here is unforgettable. The house was perfect for a relaxing family holiday. Our children loved the jacuzzi, and we enjoyed meals out on the terrace every day, blessed with beautiful weather. Aaron was so kind and helpful—waiting up for us when we arrived late and helping with our bags. And thank you to Klaudia for checking in when we missed the last ferry from Brestova. (A tip for future guests: check ferry schedules in advance—we didn’t, and had to drive an extra 1.5 hours in the dark to Valbiska. Thankfully, we still made it across.) We came looking for rest and are leaving with full hearts. Thank you for sharing your lovely place with us.

We (family of 4) had a wonderful stay at House Paola. The accommodation is a small cottage, with everything you need for a relaxing holiday. The living & dining room is large enough for a relaxing TV evening and for eating in bad weather. Everything necessary is available in the kitchen. The air conditioning upstairs near the bedrooms was really worth gold at up to 37 degrees in August. The pool, which is exclusive to the property, also offered a wonderful cooling and was also very well maintained. Vedrana is very nice and always helpful. Our kids no longer wanted to separate themselves from Vedrana's lovely dogs. The location is very quiet and you can enjoy the warm summer evenings on the terrace. You can drive to the beach about 10 minutes by car, which was completely fine for us, as we preferred the tranquility in Vinodol to the overcrowded beach resorts.

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!

Beautiful new modern place to stay. Well-equipped, clean, super accessible. Absolutely recommend!

We had a fantastic time at this place! The house is beautifully decorated, clean and has everything you need for a relaxing stay. We particularly liked the balcony with beautiful views. The location is ideal – quiet yet close to many beautiful excursion places and restaurants. The host was extremely friendly and helpful. From the uncomplicated communication to the quick response to questions to great tips for the area – nothing was missing. We felt very comfortable here and will definitely be back. Thank you for this great experience!

great apartment,all amenities, pool fantastic,only 5 min walk to the beach. The host is kind, responsive and helpful.Sala and especially the city Baška very beautiful, terraced, worth going there and enjoying. There is a carport with sun protection in front of the apartment.

Very nice apartment and well equipped. You felt very comfortable, especially on the terrace. Everything clean and designed with love. Only the bathroom and shower were quite tight, which was okay with me personally, just for the info if someone should have clairvoyance. The hosts were very friendly and they were very quick to respond to messages and questions. Always easily accessible :) From the location: 5 min walk to the beach, 2 min walk to a small shop and bakery, 10 min by car from Pula Overall, we enjoyed it:)

We stayed for the 2nd time in the beautiful cottage Casa Bel Olivo in the middle of the great old village of Vodnjan, we felt very comfortable again. There is everything you need for a nice stay, the location is ideal for a holiday in the south of Istria, you can reach any desired destinations quickly.

Very nice apartment with sea views at a great value for money!
