House full of Character was wonderful; the photographs did no do justice to the magnificent setting we saw on the island.This is a place for total relaxation and peace; it has all the comforts of home. We love cooking in the outdoor kitchen, lounging on the patio, watching the wind blow through the olive trees and sailboats in the distance. The small village has the atmosphere of old Europe with easy access to fresh organic food, wine and restaurants. There were many paths for hiking and biking with stunning views around every corner. Swimming in the deep blue Adriatic was a favorite activity. During our 10-day stay we meet many friendly and helpful people and felt at home. Our hostess, Dasha, was extremely helpful with all aspects of our trip planning and with our stay on the island. She welcomed us with a Grappa toast and was always available to answer questions. We left having a new friend in Dasha and look forward to returning soon.

Wir hatten ja bereits die Bilder des Hauses und des Grundstücks im Internet gesehen. Als wir aber dann auf der mehr als großzügigen Terrasse ankamen, waren wir doch überrascht, und so richtig sprachlos wurden wir, nachdem unser Gepäck ausgepackt und wir in alles eingewiesen worden waren: Wenn man, so wie wir, wirklich Urlaub im Sinne von Erholung braucht, dann gibt es wohl weniger Orte, die besser geeignet wären, als Dashas Haus. Alles ist freundlich und sauber, nie aber kühl oder steril. Das Haus ist mit viel Liebe zum Detail eingerichtet, gemütlich und doch großzügig, die Außenküche ist ein wahrgewordener Traum, die Außenanlage mit Kräutern, Bäumen, Natursteinterrassen und -mauern weitläufig und sehr geschmackvoll. Ungestört und unbeobachtet duschen mit Blick über Meer und Inseln - wo kann man das schon? Die rieseige Hängematte wurde von unseren Kindern zum Ruhen und Schmökern in Beschlag genommen, am schweren Holztisch draußen saßen wir oft bis spät abends bei einem Glas Wein und schauten dem Sonnenuntergang und dem Aufglimmen der Lichter im Hafen und am Festland zu, und wir tanzten ganz privat zur Musik eines Livekonzerts im Hafen auf der großen Terrasse. Dashas Haus und Grundstück ist durch zwei kleine Fußwege erreichbar - aber nicht einsehbar. Auch akustisch hat man hier wirklich seine Ruhe. Die Ausstattung ist bestens, es gibt fast alles: diverse Reiseführer und Informationsmaterial, Heftpflaster, Schreibzeug, Gewürze in der Küche, sogar eine Crepepfanne! Dasha hat uns nicht nur vor Ort sehr freundlich willkommen geheißen, sie hat eigentlich unsere komplette Reise organisiert, was durch kurzfristige Terminverschiebungen unsererseits wirklich nicht leicht war. Wir mussten uns weder um einen Parkplatz für unseren Wagen, noch um Überfahrt oder unser Gepäck kümmern - und das gilt für An- wie für Abreise. Dasha war immer erreichbar und bei wäre bei Schwierigkeiten sicher leicht greifbar gewesen - wenn wir denn welche gehabt hätten. Tipps für Lokale oder Ausflüge? Einfach Dasha fragen. Besonders glücklich waren wir darüber, wie liebevoll sie auch unseren großen Hund aufgenommen hat. Das Haus eignete sich für uns (2 Erwachsene, 4 Kinder, 1 Hund), hatte aber so viel Platz, dass zusätzlich eine Kleinfamilie mit uns hätte Urlaub machen können, ohne dass wir uns gegenseitig auf die Nerven hätten gehen können. Wir haben das Haus bereits in unserem Freundes- und Bekanntenkreis weiterempfohlen. Wir haben uns noch nie so gut erholt wie hier.

From the moment we booked Dasha's place I knew we had made the right decision. She was so helpful, arranging a boat for us and sending us all the information we needed about the local area. The photos cannot possibly do justice to the amazing view that you wake up to every morning. It is simply stunning. There is everything you need on the Island - 4 restaurants, 3 bars, small supermarket, tourist information. The villa itself is full of character. The gardens are very well stocked with figs and grapes (which we picked and ate) and we enjoyed chilling on the terrace. We cooked a couple of meals in the very sociable outside kitchen. Beds are comfortable and the air conditioning is very good. There are plenty of spots for swimming and sunbathing and the sea is beautiful and clear on Zlarin. We used the bikes or walked to restaurants/shop/bars - everything was very accessible. We hired a boat for a few days and visited other bays around the island of Zlarin and also another island, Prtvic which was only 30 mins away. The ferries are very good and cheap and we went to Sibenik (very attractive old town) and Vodice (worth a visit but not as nice) for the day. We also spent a day in Zadar which was a great city. All, in all, we (family of 5 with an 18 year old and two young people in their 20s) had a brilliant time - lots to do but also the possibility to completely relax. The island feels very safe. The set-up of separate (from the main house) bedroom and bathroom means that if two small families or couples are holidaying together and they want a bit of space and privacy this is ideal. I really can't fault this villa. We usually rent places with a pool but none of us missed not having one. Zlarin, Sibenik and surrounding area are mostly unspoilt by tourism and Dasha is the perfect host -a lovely lady who speaks perfect English and who takes great pride in making your visit perfect. What more can you ask for!! We will be back.

This holiday house was an ideal place for us (2 adults and 4 teenagers) and I recommend it to everyone who wants to experience a wonderful mixture of comfort, beautiful views, on an authentic and lively island away from big tourism and yet offering plenty of possible activities for the whole family! Our host, Dasha, supported us in every way she could to make this holiday successful. We all enjoyed it very much!!

Another lovely time in Oh La La house. The house is wonderful and more than very well equipped. Dasha was a fantastic host and was keen to ensure our comfort. Zlarin is the best place to relax, especially in June. Excellent and safe place for children too! Hope to come back again :)

Period of two weeks of our stay in this amazing house on Zlarin in May flew so quickly! The truly unique experience in this superb house that feels like a home! Luxury corner in a hidden place only a few minutes' walk away from picturesque, lively small town and various beaches for every taste! The house itself is thought-out and well equipped. It is easy to notice that owners have built it with a lots of love, great taste and sense of practicality which makes the house so cozy! The true attraction is a magnificent view of the sea! One of two kitchens is the most inspiring place for cooking we could imagine! Zlarin is located in pure ecological zone where your car is not needed, close to Sibenik! Dasha is perfect host! For those looking for atmosphere, relaxation and serenity, this is the place!It is not easy to find such a perfect place which is not marked by mass tourism! Highly recommended! This place is ideal for children! Parents can be absolutely relaxed because the island is completely tame and safe! Nearby Zlarin you can find a whole range of sporting activities on the water and a kayak rental service.The offer of the restaurant is excellent, and the prices affordable. The island offers beautiful trails for hiking or biking and crystal clear sea!

We were long looking for an ideal spot to spend our holidays this year. Finally when we got in touch with the owner Dasha we still weren't sure whether it's a good place for families with kids. Our doubts didn't last long, Dasha made sure that we were fully informed even about tinest details. Prior to our arrival we have received all guides instructions etc. All exceeded our expectations. Ferry timetables, car parking transfer to the house all was buttoned up. All of us don't particularly like loud touristic destinations with posh restaurants and overcrouded beaches. It's quite tough to find peacefull places at a reasonable cost. Well, it all happened to be true. When we arrived at the house we couln't believe what we sea. Astonishing view from the garden, Within reach there are fruit trees with lemons, almonds trees, palms, figs and oranges. Plenty of herbs all around, frech basil, mint and rosmary. The kitchen Oh how could I forget!! - this kitches is something one of a kind. Actually a heart of the place. You spend there mornings dinners and long long evenings with a view over clear sky. All is perfectly furnished and quite tastefully actually. There is a specious living room, small indoors kitchen and bathroom good size one. Whats important is that all necessary kitchen equipment is there so there is no need to carry much with you. Plus should you need anything else there is a small shop by the harbour just 10 mins walk from the house. Ah and the smell of the trees in the nearby wood!? it's a must visit place. what to do? first enjoy yourself at the house, then eat lovely food at nearby restaurant - prices are reasonable so no worries about expenses. Local bars are there - in fact 2..or 3:) which is cool.. all locals knows you after few days and all are soooooo welcoming and charming. The best beach is behind tiny beach bar on the far right of the sea cost when you reach Jeż - hehe, it's the fist stop when you arrive and if thursty have Ożujsko first. ah and you must try Travarica.. there is a post office should you need currency exchange and little playground for the kids by the post office. We even took bicycles from Dasha the owner and made some Island sightseeing. If you are in a need of fresh food no worries just get the morning ferry to Sibenik and in 20 mins you are able to get hold of the of the best Crotian stuff ever, wine, cheese, seafood, fruits, meat.. all, all is there. Anyways! a book good be written! best holiday ever!!!

Nach langer Vorfreude und engem Mailkontakt mit Dasha, die sich um jede Anfrage unsererseits fürsorglich gekümmert hat, konnten wir am 17. September endlich unseren Urlaub antreten. Um auf die Insel zu gelangen, muss man die Fähre nehmen - das Auto wurde kostengünstig, unkompliziert und sicher bei einer Freundin der Gastgeber abgestellt. Angekommen wurden wir so warmherzig von Dasha begrüßt, als würden wir uns schon ewig kennen. Es war direkt ein Gefühl von "Nach Hause kommen". Auch als wir dann das Haus erreichten, schlich sich ein herzerwärmendes Gefühl ein. Von der ersten Sekunde fühlten wir, dass wir angekommen waren und wir keinerlei Probleme haben werden die nächsten 14 Nächte in diesem wunderbaren Haus und Garten zu verbringen. Die Unterkunft ist genau wie beschrieben und abgebildet - für mich in echt sogar noch schöner. Die Küche hält alles bereit, was man braucht, auch im Garten finden sich allerhand Kräuter frisch zu selbstpflücken, ebenso einige Früchte. Die Austattung des ganzen Hauses ist sehr hochwertig und geschmackvoll, sogar das Internet ist sehr schnell. Es ist wirklich alles da, was man braucht. Auch wenn wir außerhalb der Hauptsaison gereist sind, waren alle Cafés und Restaurants auf der Insel geöffnet. Auf der Insel gibt es also keine Chance auf Langeweile, da auch die Natur reichlich zu bieten hat. Mehr braucht es doch für einen perfekten entspannten Urlaub nicht. Während unseren Aufenthalts ließ Dasha uns unsere Privatsphäre, aber sobald wir nur eine Frage hatten, war sie direkt für uns da. Alles in allem war es der schönste Urlaub, den wir bisher erlebt haben. Kroatien - und vor allen Dingen die kleine Insel Zlarin - hat uns direkt um den Finger gewickelt. Die zwei Wochen sind verflogen und wir freuen uns jetzt schon darauf, dass wir nächstes Jahr auch wieder dort Urlaub machen werden. Ich würde diese Unterkunft jedem empfehlen, denn sie lebt nicht nur von der geschmackvollen Einrichtung, dem atemberaubenden Ausblick, der hochwertigen Austattung, sondern auch von der ehrlichen Herzlichkeit der Gastgeber.

We spent a fabulous week in Oo La La House and wished we could have stayed longer. The house has everything you will need on this beautiful, small and unspoiled island and should you possibly need anything more, Dasha will do her utmost to provide it! I do not believe you will find more welcoming and friendly owners who will guide you with info on the island, its history and its situation. There are a good selection of restaurants (and bars) to choose from, each serving good quality food and the Croatian wines are a must, a shame they are almost impossible to find in the UK. If you want to island hop, the ferry service is regular, punctual and cheap and is a great way to see more of the area. We simply cannot recommend this house highly enough. The view from the terrace is amazing and the outdoor kitchen wonderful. Dasha and her husband Anton are the most delightful and helpful hosts and ensured that our stay was both comfortable and memorable.

If you’re looking for a peaceful, relaxing holiday on an idyllic island, this house is ideal. You could spend most of the time in the amazing outdoor kitchen and terrace area, taking in the view of the Islands and harbour. There’s a well equipped kitchen, bbq and grill and while it’s good to stock up on food supplies on the mainland, there’s a small shop in town which covers necessities. There are good restaurants nearby, the best is only down the path, just remember to take the torches provided for night-time returns! The house is comfortable, modern and not overlooked by other homes. The owners go out of their way to ensure you have the best possible stay and are incredibly welcoming and warm.

If you search for peace and nature go to O-La-La-house to Zlarin. You will spend unforgettable holidays: beautiful house where all you need is there and more. Very nice hospitality of the owner and very friendly locals. If possible we will return to O-La-La-house. Thank you Daša.

PERFECT vacation spot if nature, peace and great food is what matters to you during holidays! There are no accurate words to describe how great it was!! House is well-planned and truly comfortable. You may notice easily, that owners have put their heart in its interiors. Accommodation - very comfortable for 2 couples like us (2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms - one outside of the house, with an outstanding view from the shower), however families with kids would also have enough space. Location is little up the hill but we considered it as an advantage (quiet neighborhood, perfect view). It's a 7 minutes walk to get down to the harbour, market and shops. Most of the time we used bikes - 3 min. of a ride. Listing was very accurate, communication with Danica fast and easy-going , cleanliness of the house just like it's supposed to be, good quality of facilities in the house, electric grill, bikes....anything you need! Danica and her husband were very helpfull and really cared about us. We truly recommend the house and the island!

Zlarin ist eine bezaubernde Insel, man kann dort wunderbar zur Ruhe kommen. Das Haus liegt etwas oberhalb des Hafens und man hat einen fantastischen Blick aufs Meer. Besonders reizvoll ist die Aussenküche, bei schönem Wetter findet das Leben auf der großzügigen Terasse statt. Im Garten wachsen verschiedene Kräuter, Oliven, Zitronen und Feigenbäume. Mit den vorhandenen Rädern kann man gut Besorgungen erledigen oder rund um die Insel fahren. Die Atmosphäre des Hauses ist sehr gemütlich und wir haben uns sofort wohlgefühlt. Besonders nett war der herzliche Kontakt mit Dasha der Vermieterin des Hauses, die uns in allen Lebenslagen unterstützt hat. Wer Ruhe, Erholung und Natur sucht, wird sich hier wohl fühlen. Unsere Familie verbrachte 2 wunderschöne Wochen dort und wir kommen gerne wieder.

We simply loved staying at this beautiful house. The view is stunning, with a wonderful kitchen right on the terrace so you can cook and dine as you watch the sun go down. The house is very comfortable and cosy and it is set back a bit, up the hill. This gives you a 5 min walk down into the village / to the beach but it is well worth it for the view, the peace and privacy. Dasha is also a wonderful host and was incredibly helpful and attentive, providing bikes for the kids and great tips on boat hire, where to visit and where to eat. We love Zlarin and we love this house. We would return in a heartbeat. Thank you Dasha!

We had the most wonderful holiday here in Zlarin. The island fulfilled all of our expectations of a calm, easy-going place surrounded by the pristine nature and yet a stone throw away from the cultural and historic gem of town of Sibenik. The house is one of those places that look even better in nature, a perfect place for what I wanted for our holiday. Tucked away from the main place in the green Mediterranean garden, with stunning views of the archipelago. The set-up of the house was just right - an open summer kitchen and a large shaded terrace were perfect for spending the day around the house, sun deck and an open shower with the best view on the island were amazing. The house was spacious for us ( a family of four) however when our friends arrived for a visit there was unexpected capacity and flexibility to accommodate two more people. The best thing about the place was that it came completely equipped with whatever you need when you arrive - as if you have arrived to a friends home. No need of immediate running to the shop for dishwashing staff, bin liners or napkins. Everything was in place from oil to spices. Dasha takes a really good care of her house and her guests and has great attention to detail. She will organise everything you need to feel comfortable in the house from the transport of the baggages to the house from the harbour, delivery of fresh fruits and veggies from the eco farm, to delivery of the grocery shopping for a very reasonable fee. I could not recommend this place more strongly and am looking forward to our next stay there.

This summer we spent a wonderful family holiday in House O la la in Zlarin that conjure up beautiful days on Zlarin, as the location itself on the Zlarin and also the layout of the house and premises on the site creates a wonderful ambience to spend our vacation. The greater part of the day we spent on the terrace, where we enjoy the silence and the beautiful weather and scenery of the sea and islands in the vicinity. Given the fact that we have never been on Zlarin we enjoy on the island, where no crowds of tourists were present, we could enjoyed the friendliness of the locals and good food in local restaurants. We recommend House O la, la on Zlarin to anyone who search quiet summer evening and beautiful sunsets on the terrace. At the same time we would like to thank Mrs. Daša, which owns the house, because she was very nice and prepared a list of all information’s needed for travel to Zlarin, informations for life on Zlarin and also organized all logistic needs (the organization of parking in Sibenik, to transport luggage to the same house). House O la la was built by Daša and her family and inside you have all you needed for cooking, pleasure and enjoyment – thank you Daša. I hope we see you back on Zlarin.

Nach 3 Wochen Reisen in Kroatien können wir eindeutig sagen, dies war der schönste Ort. Gerade wer es etwas weniger touristisch mag ist hier goldrichtig. Die Insel ist sehr klein, doch hat einiges zu bieten. Und nun zum Haus: einfach alles perfekt, wirklich traumhafte Lage mit toller Aussicht und sehr schönen Sonnenuntergänge. Am Abend eine erfrischende Openair Dusche, Kochen in der Sommerküche oder ein Glas Wein unter der Pergola.. Alles wird hier zum Erlebnis! Vielen Dank auch Dasha für die perfekte Organisation und die Informationen und Tipps. Wir freuen uns schon auf das nächste mal.

We had an extremely beautiful time on the Island Zlarin and enjoyed swimming in the warm sea (in October!), going for walks around the island, and watching the atmosphere in the picturesque town. The house is only a few walking minutes away from the centre and the sea, so everything you need is in good reach. It has a beautiful patio and garden, which offers complete privacy for sun-bathing, reading, dining or enjoying the marvellous views out on the sea. Dasha is a very welcoming and friendly host, and she was extremely helpful at making our stay very comfortable and pleasant indeed!

Dasha's house is part of the village of Zlarin Island, on a hillside looking out over the town and harbour with a spectacular view. The house is a lovely short walk, close to the village centre. The open summer kitchen and dining area outside was a special feature. We absolutely loved it and our host Dasha was very helpful, responsive and kind. We enjoyed living among the local people and drinking their local wine. Dasha managed all the logistics of getting us over to the island and to her lovely house exceedingly well.

Excellent position for relaxing holidays. Astonishing sunsets, amazing summer kitchen and absolutely friendly owner of the house. Dogs friendly, very good hiking and cycling in the surrounding. Recommended for families and for couples who need privacy. Just a short walk away from Zlarin centre, where some good restaurants could be found
