Ever helpful owner Neda cooked super evening meals for ourselves and ex-pat friends who had joined us for a couple of days. Having originally booked a room with balcony & sea view ,we were given a room with wonderful sea view from the adjoining loggia at no extra cost! ||||It is a lovely, quiet location but in easy reach of Novigrad. Although late September, we swam in the clear sea just a few metres...
