LOCATION
Villa Dora is located on the Oštro
Peninsula, approximately 1.5 km from Kraljevica, which
is located between Rijeka and Crikvenica, thirty kilometers
from Opatija at the entrance to the bridge for the
island of Krk. Kraljevica is a city that was mentioned
as early as the 13th century. Today, in addition to
the oldest shipyard on the Adriatic, Kraljevica is
dominated by two medieval castles and the church of
the Croatian nobles Zrinski and Frankopan.
The
town has all the necessary food shops, a small open
market with a fish stand, pharmacy, medical center,
post office, currency exchange bureau, tourist bureau,
restaurants and cafés.
In the Kraljevica harbor and the nearby harbor of
Črišnjevo, mooring and vessel-lifting services are
available.
Since the the highway is completed Kraljevica is only ninety minutes drive from Zagreb.
It is exceptionally attractive to guests who, in addition
to exceptional quiet and privacy in the garden or
beach and the comfortable apartment accommodations,
want to take excursions to nearby destinations: Fužine
and other attractive places in Gorski Kotar, Opatija,
the island of Krk, a ferry to Cres and Lošinj, or
even a day trip to the Plitvice Lakes. In Kraljevica,
an excursion boat provides half-day and day excursions
to surrounding islands.
In addition, the SELCE Hot Springs (Terme Selce) are
in the vicinity, where Janica and Ivica Kostelić often
go to recuperate, providing various medical services
and physical therapy.
