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.

Location
About the surrounding area of Villa JoThe 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.

Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesIf you’re staying at Villa Jo with children you’ll be happy to note that there are plenty of amenities that have been provided with them in mind. The villa features not one, but two private pools - one that is specifically for the kids! The pool area isn’t fenced off in any way, so it’s worth keeping an eye on the little ones as they play in the vicinity. There’s a good-sized outdoor play area too, with swings and a slide as well as a ping-pong table and small football goals, ideal for a kick about in the shade of the trees. You’ll find a covered eating area too, so that the whole family can enjoy alfresco meals out of the heat of the Mediterranean sun.
The location of Villa Jo is such that day trips to the nearby cities of Sibenik, Zadar and Biograd are a breeze, and it’s in these places that you’ll find loads for the whole family to enjoy - whatever their age. In Biograd you’ll find Soline Beach, one of the rare sandy beaches in the region. There are excellent facilities here such as changing areas and showers, cafes and bars and rental places where you can hire boats, canoes and dinghies. Finding shade won’t be a problem thanks to the pine trees that surround the beach, and that, along with the shallow waters make this beach an excellent choice for those holidaying with young children.
Little adrenalin junkies will enjoy a trip to Fun Park Biograd, the largest amusement park in the country. Attractions include roller coasters, ferris wheels, rides for young children and the famous ‘Atlantis’ - a 20m high flume ride. You’ll also have the chance to be entertained by jugglers, magicians, exhibitions and circus performers from all over the globe, as well as being able to experience virtual reality interactive rides suitable for the whole family.
If you want to take things at a slower pace and see something you won’t find anywhere else, be sure to take the kids to Zadar to see the town’s famous Sea Organ. Designed by Nikola Basic in 2005, this impressive installation features 35 organ pipes which emit otherworldly tones determined by the waves. After dark you’ll be treated to a stunning light show courtesy of The ‘Greeting To The Sun’ installation. This incredible piece of art features 300 multi-layered glass plates set in a circle and synchronised with the same wave energy. Beneath the glass are solar modules that spring into life at sunset, using lights to simulate our solar system. It really is a sight that young visitors will remember forever.
