Turanj

Tourist destination info Turanj

Turanj is a small resort located at the heart of Dalmatia, near the famous tourist destination – Zadar. Turanj was inhabited during the Bronze Age while the first archeological traces go back to the younger Stone Age. During summer, this resort transforms into a true attraction because of its clean sea and a beautiful archipelago. It is ideal for people who wish to spend their vacation in peace and quiet, but close to the major tourist destinations. So, if you would like to go out at night, visit Zadar or Biograd.

      The accessiblity of the beaches and the views of the islands. The town was fairly quiet and we enjoyed strolling along to Sveti Filip in the evenings.
      Not much todislike if you are looking for a quiet family destination.

      Perfect place for those who value peace and independence
      Beautifully located, well-maintained house in a great location (5 minutes from the Korčula port). Surrounding the house is an olive grove, lavender, rosemary, orange trees, and pomegranates. A large pool with clean and well-filtered water - perfect for bathing both during the day and at night. The house (bathroom/kitchen) is equipped with everything needed. The owners are incredibly kind and helpful, eager to answer any question/request. A welcoming liqueur and delicious cake awaited us 😋. The house is situated high up, offering breathtaking views of the sea, the Pelješac peninsula, and Orebić. 3-10 minutes by car to a store, bakery, vegetable market, and fish market. I recommend it for couples and families with kids who never leave the pool 😁.

      A dream-come-true holiday.
      Perfect place to spend the time with your family, without any noise or crowds. Extraordinary view! Our kids loved to check the garden each day and find cucumbers, tomatoes or eggplants for dinner. Of course the best part, swimming pool all day! :-) Driveway well prepared, but very steep at some points, so please be careful when traveling with a big van. In this case, when in doubt, contact the owners, they will help for sure :-) Thank you to the owners for the hospitality and help!

      A dream on earth! A place you would never leave.
      We enjoyed our holiday soooo much. A lovely house up on the hill, marvelous vieuw, total privacy, a great swimmingpool (and even greater swimmingpoolboy ☺) a bakeoven in the open air and in 10 minutes in the cosy old town of Korcula. Thank you Ostoya en Jelena for your hospitality and making our staying so pleasant. Nothing we asked was to much for you. We surely will come back next year.

      Krásné prostředí, příjemní a vstřícní majitelé.
      Ubytování je na krásném místě (samotě) uprostřed olivového háje, ze kterého je krásný výhled na Pelješac. Malý nedostatek byl v tom, že každou noc byla slyšet nedaleká diskotéka.

      Ein Paradies
      Wir wohnten nicht nur inmitten der phantastischen Natur in einem entzückenden Haus, welches mit viel Liebe gestaltet wurde und mehr als genügend Platz bot. Es fehlte an Nichts. Die Gastgeberfamilie bestach durch Aufmerksamkeit, Zuvorkommenkeit Großzügigkeit und nicht zuletzt durch Herzlichkeit. All dies war in Summe für eine wunderschöne, außergewöhnlich entspannende Zeit verantwortlich - herzlichsten Dank dafür!
