Top neighbourhoods in Zadar

Zadar Old Town

Zadar Old Town captivates with Roman ruins, medieval churches, and innovative installations like the Sea Organ playing melodies as waves hit the shore. History buffs will love St. Donatus Church's circular walls and Byzantine mosaics in marble-paved squares. The Sun Salutation disc creates a magical light show at sunset along the waterfront promenade. Traditional konobas serve fresh Adriatic seafood while artisan shops sell handmade jewellery and Croatian wines from medieval stone buildings. The car-free area is perfect for wandering honey-colored streets that open onto spacious squares. Boutique hotels in converted historic palaces offer authentic stays with original architectural elements.

Borik

Borik serves up beachy perfection along Zadar's stunning Adriatic coastline. Crystal-clear waters lap against pebble beaches where you can soak up the Croatian sunshine all day. Pine-shaded walking paths wind along the waterfront, offering dreamy sunset views that'll have your social media followers swooning. Resort life rules here with plenty of pools, water sports, and coastal relaxation. Hotels dominate this seaside haven with upscale amenities and international dining options. Getting around is a breeze—you can walk everywhere within the resort area or catch a 15-minute bus ride into Zadar's historic centre. Beach bars and hotel terraces provide laid-back evening vibes for watching the sun melt into the Adriatic.

Arbanasi

Arbanasi offers a peaceful escape from Zadar's tourist crowds with its traditional Mediterranean charm. Stone houses with red-tiled roofs line quiet streets that lead to rocky Adriatic beaches. Kolovare Beach is just steps away, perfect for swimming in crystal-clear waters. Albanian cultural influences are visible in the older buildings, giving this 18th-century settlement its unique character. Family-run konobas serve fresh seafood and regional specialities in this authentic area. Private apartments and guesthouses provide intimate accommodation with genuine Croatian hospitality. While public transport is limited, the walk into central Zadar rewards you with beautiful coastal views and a glimpse of local life.

Knež

Knež gives you a genuine peek into everyday Croatian life away from tourist hotspots. This peaceful residential area offers a chance to slow down and experience authentic local routines. The neighborhood's tree-lined streets and mix of modern homes with traditional stone houses create a charming backdrop for morning strolls and evening walks. Getting around requires some planning as public transport is limited. Small family-run konobas serve delicious home-style Croatian dishes at reasonable prices. Most visitors stay in private apartments where friendly hosts often share local insights and sometimes even breakfast.

Learn more about Zadar

Along the seafront promenade, the Sea Organ plays haunting melodies created by waves pushing air through underwater pipes. Nearby, the Sun Salutation captures daylight and creates a mesmerising light show after sunset. Roman ruins stand alongside medieval churches in this ancient walled city, where history feels casually abundant. The Cathedral of St. Anastasia towers over narrow limestone streets that open suddenly into sunny squares. Duck into the Museum of Ancient Glass to see delicate Roman artefacts displayed with surprising wit. After exploring Zadar's old town, join locals at sunset when they gather by the sea. The Times didn't call this the "entertainment centre of the Adriatic" for nothing.

10/10 Excellent
"Lovely small hotel on the outside of the downtown Zadar area - much quieter than staying in the middle of town as we have previously. Very easy to walk anywhere - the organ, nice restaurants, shops, etc - and especially the best gelato shop on the island. It was great to have parking available on site. Breakfasts were quite nice, the staff was very friendly and helpful. Right across from the hotel was an excellent pizza restaurant. Rooms were very nice and spacious enough for two suitcases to be set out (not always the case in Europe). We would definitely stay there again."

"Wish we had stayed longer as we really enjoyed the stay! Great view from our room and was close to everything we needed. Be mindful you will need to carry your luggage from the nearest gate to the hotel as it is in the old town where cars are not permitted. We were surprised to find our room walls outfitted with mirrors, which was low key kind of a vibe. Enjoy."
