Vacation rentals with a firepit in Serbia

Initially we were going to go to a hotel for our last couple of days in Belgrade, Serbia after 2 months in Novi Sad. All the rooms were booked do to the European basketball tournament. Well that turned out to be a good thing because this place is great. What caught my eye initially was the price but seeing the pictures and realizing it was on the Sava River we decided this was it. It is a little bit out of the way but if you are looking for some peace and quiet this is the place. (Sometimes there are loud parties at night close by.) The main entrance is through a door to the lower deck area which also leads to the river. This area has a BBQ, bar, sink, other seating and wait fot it,.....party lights!!!!! To the right is a somewhat steep staircase to the living area with another door at the top. The upstairs also has another semi private deck overlooking the river. Being a total sun bum from California I spent most of my time on this deck. My partner but so much during the sunshine. Also at night the lights on the river are magical. The instructions with pictures for the TV, LED projector, sound system, wood burning stove and party lights were very clear. Awesome sound system by the way. Easy to connect your phone via Bluetooth and rock. The LED projector has a HDMI to USB-C cable. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need plus an air popper, espresso machine, toaster, pots, pans, range and decent fridge. The couch/fold out bed was comfy as a couch and a bed. The deck furniture was perfect. Seriously, I lived in the sling beach chair. And prolly most important the place was very clean. The instructions to get here are very clear but the pictures are absolutley necessary. Since it is out of the way getting a taxi may be a challenge but the bus system is great. There is a bus stop on the main road next to the turn off for the property. Minutes away are great restaurants and bars along the river and lake. Dragan is a great host. He keeps in contact to make sure everything is perfect. We will definitly rent from him again.

Nice little house. Very warm and friendly. In the middle of Serbian mountains.

The photos don't do the place justice... you get the whole floor of the house (there is another one upstairs) so you won't get the complete solace and silence (which I don't think anyone but a mysophonically challenged person like myself would even notice) but! the privacy is absolute, you have the comfort of knowing Goran is close by and more than available for any questions or help needed! And let me tell you, the place is CLEAN. Like eat-off-the-floor-clean, I don't think I've been to a tidier cleaner and better equipped lodging ever! Full kitchen, utensils, frier, etc, and oh the BEDs are SO comfy (high-class memory foam matresses), the place is more than spacious, enough sunlight, calm, quiet street, an hour in total away walking to the Avala Tower (for all my mountain goats!) all tied in a bow with a morning coffee on my last day kindly prepared by Goran! This was me scouting the place and surroundings, I WILL go back once the pool is up an running! CANNOT recommend enough!!

Very cozy house with a great terrace and a great view of the mountains right out of bed when you wake up! We spent a quiet New Year's Eve with the dog and went on a few winter trips in the area.

A phenomenal stay. Words cannot express how great the house is. The view is phenomenal so are the amenities. The host is also great, with us every step of the way, and made us feel right at home. We’ll be coming back for sure, and I can recommend this place to everyone!

Very nice house with incredible view . We really enjoyed our time ! Totally recommended for big families or friends !

The Mandic homestead is a true oasis of peace and quiet. During our stay, we enjoyed waking up the spring, getting some fresh air and taking a break from the hustle and bustle of the city. And the friendly hosts made our stay even more wonderful. I would recommend this place to anyone.

Thank you for the warm welcome, the hosts were very hospitable. The apartment is in a quiet and peaceful place, the nearest attractions can be reached in a few minutes. The accommodation was clean and equipped with everything you need. all recommendations for visiting

Great place, it's cozy and quiet. The host is very kind and responsive. Recommend!

It was an amazing stay with a personal entrance and everything needed at a great location ! I highly appreciate Danica for a very flexible check in/out and understanding.

We had an amazing stay at Luka's place. Everything is as on pictures, the view is stunning, the duplex was super clean, modern and has all the amenities you need for a comfortable stay. The surroundings are quiet et beautiful. Communication with the host was friendly and very easy. We absolutely loved our stay and will come back if we have the chance to travel again to that charming part of the world. Thank you for everything Luka!

This is an excellent apartment for two, equipped with all the necessary amenities (special thanks for the coffee machine and the supply of capsules!). The apartment is spotless, cozy, and just a 15-minute walk from the central city square. Renata was super friendly and provided clear, helpful instructions. Highly recommend!

Nice apartments, cozy and clean. Lots of free parking, quiet area. But keep in mind that you need to make an appointment to visit the spa. Unfortunately, we did not know about it, so we could not enjoy the sauna. The owner is always in touch, so there were no problems when checking in. Overall, we are happy with the apartment.

Very nice place! We enjoyed 3 days vacation in that apartments. Good location - 5 min drive from cable road, 200m to grocery shop. Clean and big apartment with modern furniture. Great spa!

My stay at Nikolina's place was just wonderful. The place is easy to find, and Nikolina sent very detailed and clear instructions the moment I made the reservation. She provided many great recommendations for places to visit in the area with clear directions on how to get there and other useful info. The accommodation itself is everything you need for a stay in Tara, a great base for your mountain vacation from which you can explore a plethora of sightseeing spots, lakes and other attractions. The front yard is lovely AND it's huge, with a beautiful view of Zaovine lake. The summerhouse was the star of the show for me, a perfect hiding spot for your mountain getaway - very cosy, yet spacious, with hot running water, grill, fireplace, fridge and everything else you may need for making food or just hanging around and enjoying your evenings. There are a few other grills around the yard you can use as well. Overall, 10/10, would recommend.

We had an absolutely wonderful weekend at Goran's cottage! The house is truly enchanting, like something straight out of a fairytale. The surroundings are indescribable—beautiful, breathtaking, and simply fantastic. The cottage is incredibly well-equipped, making it the perfect place for a relaxing stay. It's undoubtedly one of the best places we've ever stayed. Goran, our host, was incredibly kind and flexible, ensuring we had everything we needed. Highly recommend this place! *****

One of the best cabins we have rented in Serbia so far. It’s near asphalt road yet in a distance from everything. Only couple of houses nearby. The house itself is very warm, you can find everything you need there. Fireplace is very sweet. Bathroom is well-furnished too. On the second floor there are two sleeping rooms and a common space. The host is very nice and friendly, and very responsive. We would definitely like to rent this beautiful house again.

Borislav and his family members were very kind and helpful. House was clean and beautiful

We had a great stay at this Airbnb! The place was exactly as described, with easy check-in and a peaceful environment. Our group of seven stayed for one night, and everything was perfect. The host was incredibly welcoming, kind, and responded to our messages instantly. Highly recommend!

Nice little house in a romantic place, near to a river in the forest. A small restaurant is right next to it where the food is fantastic. Beds are comfortable, everything was clean.

Nina and her husband have been lovely, very welcoming and were always willing to help us. Especially would recommend to go quad driving arranged by Nina her husband or ask them about their homemade liquor. Once again thank you, we had an amazing time!

We'd like to say big thanks to Predrag! Our staying in his house was brilliant. We enjoyed BBQ, sauna and beautiful views of nature and mountains from the terrace. The house is really big and new, you can find everything you need for your comfort living. Also there is a cute photozone on the house garden. The parking area is large, so you can find enough space for two cars. Thanks for this experience, we recommend this place for sure!

It was our second stay in this little lovely house — and it felt like coming back to something deeply loved. Simple to feel but hard to find words — this is a place like no others, and it is a place that is enough to know, no need to look for “other options”. Whenever we will be able to come back — we will. I love the park, the secluded house, the walks, the view, the country-house feel that reminds me of “dacha” in Russia that we used to have, when the days are long and the walk takes you to the river and back, and the sky is changing, and it takes 10 minutes to drive to get your ice cream and get back. This is our favorite place — for me, my son and my husband. Days are simple and meaningful, work is done alongside with the views, and joy of waking up and falling asleep here is tangible. Thank you for this place, we will come back as many times as we can)
