accommodation

Cheap

  • Hotel Brioni. Located by the sea, needs a general overhaul, but is ok considering the price. Food is good, rooms are clean, leisure activities are great.
  • Camping Stoja. The campsite has pitches for caravans and tents, but also mobile homes, most of which are in the first row, i.e. with a superb sea view. Price ok, clean, safe, leisure activities available - but you have to cook yourself.
