Cottage vacation rentals in Balkans

Wonderful country house near Cassano delle Murgia. Beautiful garden around the house. Peace, quiet and complete relaxation from city life. The interior of the house is decorated with great taste. Everything is authentic and comfortable. Manuela is a nice, very responsive and helpful hostess. I recommend this accommodation to all lovers of outdoor recreation.

Amazing terrace, felt private and had nice views on the sea and mountains. Great communication with the host.

Our stay at Evangelia’s place was easily one of the best experiences I’ve ever had—and I’ve traveled to multiple countries over the past 10+ years! Our host was simply the best I’ve ever encountered. She was kind, friendly, attentive, and always responsive, making sure we had everything we needed for a perfect stay. The place itself was immaculate. The interior was spotless, classic, and so well-maintained. Outside, the views were breathtaking. Each night, we were treated to the incredible sight of the Milky Way, and in the mornings, we had the ocean in clear view and goats greeting us as we enjoyed the delicious breakfast our host generously provided. It was so peaceful and quiet—pure tranquility. I’ve been recommending this place to everyone because it truly was the highlight of my trip. The location was also ideal—conveniently in the middle of the island, making it easy to drive to various spots, nothing too far! You’ll definitely need a rental car though! Book this place!!!!!!

Dalibor's cottage is a great place. Very clan and spacious and perfectly equipped for a short - or longer - stay. We really liked the atmosphere and leisuring on the deck and in the jacuzzi after long hikes in the neighborhood. You are a few minutes away by car from 3 large supermarkets and any styles of restaurants. Perfect place for sending time in the Plitvice area (the entrance of the Park is 20 minutes away). Thanks Dalibor !

I had a wonderful stay at this house. It’s located in a quiet countryside setting, perfect for a relaxing getaway. The highlight of the stay was definitely the jacuzzi and sauna, which made the experience even more enjoyable. The house itself is clean, well-maintained, and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The hosts were friendly and responsive, making sure everything was perfect. If you’re looking for a peaceful retreat with great amenities, this place is a fantastic choice. Highly recommend!

OMG OMG, this place is amazing. Completely private in a beautiful area in the hills. This is what hospitality should look like. Nikolina enabled us earlier check in and proactively offered late check out. Everything is clean and there’s lots of stuff to do. We grilled and used the sauna. The breakfast basket is to die for. It’s great for couples but we’re planning on bringing the kids next time as well. We did walks everyday, it’s quiet hilly but managable. Definitely the best place we’ve stayed so far.

lovely tiny house, great amenities, amazing views. the hosts are very friendly and helpful. 10/10 recommend

I'm in love with this place, the space is very spacious and bright. If you need to move to Sorrento it is too easy, it has very nice views and the area is full of rest and bars, etc. Caro is too friendly and always looking for the way to support you as necessary, I will definitely return

Lovely, peaceful setting with a view of the mountains and a convenient walking path to the village. You have ultimate privacy as the home is located at the very end of a gravel road through agricultural fields and small garden plots. House was very clean and everything worked just fine. Very convenient to the large market (groceries, general household needs...and gelato!). Two things to be aware of: There are three houses in the general area with the same address so be sure to put the entire address into your GPS. Also all sleeping areas are upstairs up a stepladder type of stairs. It's fine, but not the house for those with mobility issues. Nela is warm and welcoming and very helpful with tips to make your stay in Slovenia memorable!

The cottage, its amenities, cleanliness, peaceful surroundings and nature, exceeded our expectations, as did the host’s hospitality. We’ve had everything we needed for a pleasant stay and felt at home. Ioannis, very kindly made sure we were looked after. We’ve had a memorable stay and are looking forward to going back soon.

Lovely cottage with a big fenced yard, perfect for our dog as well. It was just perfect for a quiet weekend!

we were looking for something private and cozy - the little stone house was just that. we had a nice time and can recommend it

The cottage complies with 100% of the information and photos provided. A very nice retreat if you don't want to be in the middle of the hustle and bustle of e.g. Zadar. The place was absolutely clean and very well furnished and equipped. Sanja greeted us personally as a host and showed us everything. The kitchen actually has everything you need for your daily needs. Washing machine and iron ensure that you can also clean something in between. Due to the fenced property is great with a dog, as he could move freely. Beds very comfortable, pool also absolutely sufficient in size. You have to be aware that you always need a car here to shop or eat out. The old town of Zadar is reachable in 20 minutes by car and absolutely worth seeing. Good restaurants, very friendly and animal-loving people. Generally very good transport connections in all directions. We will be happy to come back!

A sweet little cottage in beautiful nature, a peaceful and quiet location, perfect for a getaway, relaxation, and recharging energy. Beautiful views of the hills, vineyards, and greenery. Wonderful sunsets and a stunning, sparkling starry sky like we haven't seen in years! This is just one of the breath-taking features of the location. The house is equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. I believe it's especially beautiful in other seasons when most of the time can be spent outdoors. Janez is an excellent host, friendly and quick to respond. We would definitely love to return.

CHECK THE DIRECTIONS! we used google maps to get there, and the gps sent us to a totally different place! We ended up getting there at 11.20 pm, it was dark and it snowed a few hour before we arrived, and te gps told us to go to a house in the middle of no were, where we couldn't get with the car, so we had to leave the car on the main road and walk there, in the snow, just to find it locked because it wasn't the right one!! we had to go back and go around with the car a bit, with the picture of the home on the phone, trying to find it in the dark! but we we did find it it was great! it's just like the photos, and Boštjan had lit the fire for us and tuned on the ac, so it was warm and cozy! And in the morning we woke up to a breathtaking view of the whole valley covered in snow. It was wonderful! I wish I could have stayed longer! And is not far at all form Olimia's therme, and the road is very easy! Very much recommended!

We were very happy with the accommodation. Everything was clean and in good working order. Even the knives were sharp. This was a great choice of accommodation for us.

My wife and I really enjoyed this place. It has a very comfy vibe. Weather really put a damper on our trip but I could tell it was a beautiful backdrop. I recommend this place for anyone looking to have a peaceful stay.

such a gem! we had a rental car, so it was the perfect place to stay with easy parking and under a 10min drive to the town Vis. the vineyard is absolutely gorgeous - and so quiet and private! the cottage is so cute and perfect for a couple. the kitchen had everything we needed to cook dinner (and some olive oil for cooking), and the patio was wonderful for drinking wine and eating with a perfect view. the pool was amazing for a dip on a hot day! the on-site restaurant had just closed for the season which was a bummer, but we were still able to buy some bottles of wine from the owners. might have to come back when the restaurant opens again! :)

Absolutely stunning villa. All mod cons, everything that you need for a relaxing stay is provided...coffee machine, laundry facilities and air con in all rooms. Romeo the property manager is available for you to help with questions and recommendations. His little dog Nicky is a delight! Beautiful peaceful village location with a few stunning beachfront Tavernas and supermarkets for supplies. A wonderful patisserie is a 5 minute stroll for delicious bread and pastries. A lovely little beach is a 2 minute walk away and lots of things to see and do within a short drive. Thankyou for a wonderful stay. 💗 I thoroughly recommend this property and the host.

We had a wonderful stay - thank you so much! Ljubica was so kind and helpful, even bringing us cakes and chocolate for the children, and the cottage was absolutely perfect. This is a lovely, secluded and peaceful place to stay but with decent public transport links (though the railway line is currently closed) and good access to Karlovac and beyond. The surroundings are beautiful and there are some wonderful walks, or just relax in the cottage and its lovely garden. The cottage is very clean and comfortable, as well as having everything you could need for a week’s stay. Do be aware there are ticks in the woods though (like any wooded place with lots of vegetation!) and check your skin carefully - we had to pull out two from the children’s chests/torsos.

I must say it was the best vacation we have ever booked through Airbnb. The private pond is very special, which we also used every day. In addition, there is a real pool. I also found the herd of sheep to the neighboring property, which you could pet. Furthermore, there are 4 cats on the property, so if you have children, there is always one to play. Very good Hungarian restaurants are nearby, which are great value for money. The hosts Susann, Othmar and Tibor are super nice, know each other and try to make everything possible. I recommend having a trip organized by carriage. Here you are guided by a local through forests and the children are even allowed to steer themselves. Overall, I highly recommend the hosts and the property.

My two girlfriends and I had a wonderful two nights in the countryside, with so much thought and care put into our stay from our hosts. Arriving after a long drive we where welcomed with cake, tea, eggs, treats, everything essential to a comfortable first night and morning. Our booking included an entertaining and fun evening cooking local dishes with Nino and Dina and we enjoyed a lovely night together round the table with amazing food and drinks and sharing stories. What a pleasure this was and a great start to our holiday and to Sicily! We know some of the prior reviews mention the neighbours dogs barking, this was the case on one of the nights and sorted out with some earplugs, so we would advise this. It did not spoil our stay at all and we left full of joy at having met such wonderful people and having had such a great time. Thank you to our hosts for looking after us so well and we would recommend you book this wonderful experience if you are in Sicily!

Amazing Mountain Getaway! We had the best time at this cozy Lovćen cottage! Perfect for a family trip, with plenty of space for six people. The fireplace inside is super warm and inviting, and the outdoor area is just stunning—perfect for barbecues, chilling in the garden, and watching incredible sunsets. The views are unreal, and the fresh mountain air makes it even better. If you’re looking for a peaceful escape with nature all around, this is the spot. Can’t wait to come back!

It was really enjoyable to stay here The house was as clean, tidy as it appeared in the photos, and prepared with everything we needed in mind. The furniture was cozy and the decoration created a warm atmosphere which made our stay even more comfortable. The house is located in a calm and peaceful area. The fact that it was away from the noise of the city was ideal for relaxing, but also convenient in terms of transportation to grocery stores and restaurants. The host was very caring and welcoming. She was quick to respond to our questions and helped with everything. Also, thank you for the surprise in the fridge, it was a nice touch. Overall, we were very satisfied during our time here. Thanks to the comfort of the house and the attention of the host, we had a pleasant stay. We are planning to come back in the coming period.
