About our home

Our home is a charming Mediterranean house dating back 150s of years. We have lovingly restored and renovated it (2011-13) and it now boasts 3 bedrooms, modern amenities, terrace and a garden.
Downstairs there is a living room with a kitchen, dining table for 6 and a bathroom with shower. First floor includes a double bedroom (AC) with a TV, a single bedroom (fan) and a WC. The top floor is actually one large bedroom (AC) with a stunning sea view and a high wooden ceiling. The entire house measures around 100 m2. The only restriction is due to rainwater tank, so water should be used with care.
We own a private parking, 3 minutes walk from the house. It is not possible to reach the house by car because of narrow/old streets.
Outside you will have use of terrace overlooking the sea and nearby islands.The beaches are 5 minutes descent from the house. Our house is less suitable for handicapped people (steep stairs).
We are still decorating, so you may find the house in a bit different (hopefully improved) state than on the pictures.
The best time to visit is from May to October.

More about us

Hello there! We are Helena and Miran. Miran is chemical engineer and Helena is veterinarian. We love travelling, fishing, cooking, nature and hanging out with friends. We spend our summer holidays in Stara Baska. For the next year thought we are looking for something different and think this home swap looks like a great plan. You can write us in English, French or German. It would be possible to combine a visit with a stay in the Capital city of Zagreb (city center apartment), which is 2.5 hours drive away.

Where is it?

Neighbourhood

Our summer house is situated on the island of Krk in the northern Adriatic. The mainland can be reached over a magnificent bridge and Krk features also an airport (35 km away) with international flights during summer. Our village is Stara Baska (NOT "Baska"), approximately 10 minutes drive from Punat. Punat is a cozy town with shops, supermarkets, yacht harbour, cafes and restaurants.

There is a number of beautiful beaches (pebbles) nearby. The island Krk has quite a few places of interest and is good for hiking, cycling and diving. There is a diving center 5 minutes drive from our house. Stara Baska village has one small shop with basic supplies (fresh bread 7 days/week) which is situated on a way between our parking and our house. There are also a few restaurants in the village.
Our neighbours are mostly local villagers: shepards, fisherman (some of them speaking English). The place is very quiet.
We think we spend holidays on such a stunning place we hope you will choose to come and explore!
