LAST MINUTE APARTMENTS IN ZADAR
Where to stay in Zadar
Before you pick a last minute apartment in Zadar, it helps to decide whether you want to stay inside the Old Town, close to beaches, or in a quieter neighbourhood that is easier for parking and getting around.
The Old Town and peninsula are ideal if you want to be near historic streets, the sea organ, restaurants and the waterfront promenade, while areas on the mainland side of Zadar often offer easier access by car and more space. Coastal neighbourhoods and nearby resorts are a good choice if beach time is your main priority.
