Description
We are located on island Silba in a small bay with beautiful pebble beach. With only 5 houses. The house is self sustainable with solar electricity, rain water and 25 min walk or short bicycle ride from the main village with all the amenities like markets restaurants and bars.
The island is pedestrian zone so there are no cars. In the village there are 7 restaurants, 7-8 bars, 4 grocery stores, bakery, post office etc.
Silba is well connected by boat and ferry lines with Zadar and Pula, in tourist season even 2 times a day.
For 12 years now our core business is anchorages (buoy field/open type marinas) for yachts and motor boats. We have 3 concessions on 2 islands (Silba and nearby Premuda island).
