- They upgraded us from a differrent tent, bigger with bathroom as we had some issues with the normal tent, the location and all the facilities were perfect, the bar with every night activities was also very apreciated by us and the kids.You can walk all over the island by foot with spectacular views on the way
- The location of our tent was fantastic!The food was very tasty and plentiful. Staff were friendly.Poole entertainment was great fun!The yoga and gong bath being included in the price was good too. The local sunset bar staff were friendly.
- Osoblje je bilo izuzetno ljubazno i susretljivo. Cijene prihvatljive i ukusna hrana.
Cons -
- There are only 2 small beaches for kids (with smooth entrance into the water) but on the other hand it was nice that even the kids were able to make snorkeling (and anyway it is not something that has to do with the resort)
- The price to hire SUPs was high. The instructions for suitcase collection on departure were not given to us clearly (so we had to double back - we'd left them outside our tent but told they would not collect them from there).The showers were smelly especially in the evening. There could be more showers for the number of people using them (there were two female ones for many tents). Outdoor ones would be great. Washing lines or racks to dry towels and swimwear would be very useful.There was only one place to get free filtered water from (reception) and we were told off for trying to fill a water bottle at breakfast. Staff said the tap water was safe but also that it tasted unpleasant. Water stations across the island would be better for the environment.Pictures show a mirror in the tent but there wasn't one (nor a long one in the bathrooms).
- Smjestaj u samim satorima je bio vlazan i prepun kukaca. Premjesteni smo u drugi sator koji je bio cisci. Kupaonice nisu bile redovno ociscene.

- Breakfast was OK, but not great.- The sea, beach and the nature is pretty nice on the island.- The ferry that takes you to the island is very convenient and on a nice location in Šibenik.- Staff is very friendly.
- Biggest downside is cleanliness. I understand that it's "camping" in nature, but even when I take that into consideration the cleanliness could be a lot better - mold in our tent, leaking AC, shared toilets and showers were no where close to the standards that need to be kept.- Food, especially for dinner was mediocre at best. Took me back to college canteen day.- Beds are quite bad - wonky and one leg was missing, which was replaced by a rock (of course it was different height compared to the legs so it was wobbly).- Prices at the restaurants and bars are quite high.- There's not much activities that are offered.
The location was superb, beautiful sea, peace and tranquility.
The overall cleanliness of the facilities, showers, toilets and tent rooms.
Big tents are really nice. There is a lot of activity for children. Yoga classes are so relaxing. I will come over again.
We stayed in one of the bell tents. They’re basic but clean and very comfortable beds with an aircon unit that worked surprisingly well. They all had a little bit of of decking and deck chairs to sit outside. It was very peaceful and other guests were very respectful.
The location is just amazing. Tents are magical, especially at night, when you can just hear one bird (an owl?) and nothing else apart from occasional wind in the canopies of pine trees. The sea is right there and the island is big enough that you can find your spot under the sun (or in the shadow). A perfect getaway. Breakfast is huge and good; you have multiple options for lunch/dinner, so you can eat something else every day (I stayed for 9 days).
The staff is nice, but especially some of the waiters are still learning to do their job (and can be a bit clumsy sometimes). There are vegetarian options for lunch/dinner, but I'd love to have more imaginative and quality veggie / vegan food.There are many wasps on the island (especially when eating), but there is nothing you can do about that.There is music at almost every place (main beach – party techno/electronic; lounge arrangements in bar; hits at main restaurant etc.), which can be annoying, if you are searching for some quiet time (I was). There are crickets everywhere and I'd prefer to listen to them.
Although there was a lot of walking distance between the swimming pool and bars, tents etc it always ended with a cooling swim in the pool or the amazing sea. Or a great meal! The main “beach” was not the best but a short walk to really nice swimming and snorkeling spots. Over all it was a great experience and would definitely come back!
The wasps!
The location and natural surroundings are absolutely stunning. The opportunity for stargazing is a highlight; the night sky is incredibly clear, with minimal light pollution. What truly enhances the experience is the welcoming and knowledgeable instructor.
When arriving by boat, there was a lengthy wait in the sun for bag tagging and reception check-in, totaling an hour and a half. Unfortunately, my tent wasn't ready upon reaching the front desk, although I did receive a free drink voucher. Exploring the island on foot is limited due to staff-only areas, and certain activities had their drawbacks. Stargazing, which should have been a truly unique experience, was strangely absent from the reception's activity list. Moreover, the available seating for stargazers was woefully inadequate, and during a St. Laurent rain event, they failed to provide any additional sheltered spots. Yoga sessions were scheduled extremely early at 7 am, and arriving slightly late resulted in a cold reception from the instructor, which felt discourteous for a vacation setting. For sunset kayaking, there was a critical lack of communication – no information about booking through a WhatsApp group, which only opens once a day at 8 am, was provided. This led to confusion and inconvenience. When we inquired at the reception, their indifference left us frustrated. Lastly, the "movie night" was misleading. Instead of outdoor projections under the stars, it turned out to be Netflix on a TV under the eaves. They played random movies without any prepared program, catering mainly to children. The absence of options, such as earlier showings for kids and later ones for adults, made the experience quite underwhelming.
Just the location.
the location is great, but that's about it. We were on the island in 2019, we stayed in the Island home and everything was up to par. from breakfast, restaurant, prices, cleanliness, staff. This year we booked the O-tent which was very dirty, there was a lot of humidity, there is mold everywhere, in every corner of the tent. it leaked because it had been raining for two days. overall, the prices are too high for what you get. The island has potential but management needs to fix these things. What you see on pictures is not what you’ll get. The pictures on their booking are from the 2019.
Location is faboulous. Peaceful, yet lots of content. Clean sea, convenient facilities, great for meeting up with friends and family. Well organized transport. We’ll come back.
Breakfast was so so. Eggs - seemed to be powder? They need more coffee machines, queing for breakfast was a bit annoying. Tents could use cleaning.
The place is very peaceful, ideal for a family vacation. The view is awesome. Shops in easy reach.
The breakfast facility is very small compared to the number of guests. The number of showering slots should be doubled at least.
It is a beautiful remote resort that you can enjoy the quite and peaceful nature. The beach, forest, yoga platform and the view of the camps wonderful. Breakfast is the world class, best in Europe. Staff is amazing, friendly, genuine and chill. We love everything about this place. I wish it keeps its peaceful and alternative way and does not became a resort for parties and jet skies.
Music at the beach bar. Too laud. Playing a cheep pop radio non-stop that you are forced to listen while trying to chill out at the only beach for a peacefully rest. I had to request the staff at the bar several times to turn the volume down or change to alternative lists. Other parts of the island plays good quality music though.
Our family with two children loved to stay close to nature in the tent with a wounderful view on the sea on an island almost without cars. The island is wonderful and green and the resourt is properly run and personnel is friendly. We loved swimming every day: often in the sea at the main bathing place, sometimes at slightly rocky other places, sometimes in the sea water pool. The microclimate on the island is a bit better (less hot and a bit more windy) than at the cost. The tent is - of course - a tend only. But the four beds in it were fine and it's two layers protect even from stronger rain and - our's was located beyond trees - had a reasonable temperature (the air conditioner helps a bit in very hot situations). We did not need the moscito net, since there was no moscitos at all. The tend and beds/towels were very clean (at the beginnung) and the common bath room/showers were good (with good water supply). We enjoyed the programm: particularly the yoga program (7 a.m./16 p.m. with Marie), organised star gazing, some pool games with the children (with Anna and Anna) and karaoke (even though the micro was bad). The breakfast was very good and involved also healthy food (till 10 only, even though on some days it was a bit full). The restaurant at the beach was good (but a bit expensive for a family). The pizza and burger alternative had reasonable prices (about 12€/meal p.p.) and were ok.For us it was a little paradise.
At the main beach there could have been some more deckchairs and possitbilities to get into the water (we later went to other spots at the coast). I would also like to have a bit more contact between the gests (although Anna did very well!).The shop has not much to offer (no healthy food at all, and no sun bocker 50 available). The price for water 2.50€/3€ for a 1.5 liter bottle may be reasonable for an island. But the double price for a small sun blocker (compared with online offers) seemed a bit expensive to us. So take your sun blocker with you.The transfer boat, starting close to the buss station three times a day, was nice. The involved extra costs (reasonable 30€ both ways each person) and extra taxes to pay (again not that much) could be made more transparent in before. One third of the island is almost not accessible, peraps to hide the garbage (necessarily produced by the tourists). But it would be nice, if the round tour - shown on the maps - would be opend up.
Naturel good
Transportation to the island is a disaster. The staff is rude. Breakfast is a disgrace.A total DISASTER. First of all, I have to tell you the information hidden in the reservation. Transfer to the island is provided by boat and costs 30 Euros per person. After traveling 45 minutes on an old yacht, fully loaded with suitcases and without any safety precautions, when you land at the port, you have to wait for only one official for luggage registration and then wait for a queue that extends outside the building at the reception with the same crowd. If you survive all this, you have to find your tent on the roads made of sharp stones for 30 minutes with a map printed with the wrong direction and incomplete information. If you want to go to the sea to cool off, you can swim by risking your life on a beach made entirely of rocks. As soon as you say you enter the pool, get ready for germs, the purification does not work, children are in the pool without diapers under the babies. Now you plan what to do!!!
The location of the island itself is beautiful
Half the Beds around the Pool and beach were brokenThe showers naar our tent were dirtyThe tents were really dirty from the outside!!!The floor of our tent was warn outThe airco in the tent was extremely noisy The kitchen staff in the main restaurant next to the Pool area was not up to standards At lunch i had 9 clamps in my spaghetti vongole of which 2 were emptyAt dinner they forgot to make our order and kent us waiting for 50 minutesThe food was finally served and my french fries and chicken was cold. The second attempt it was hot but uncooked and chicken was raw inside An absolute failureAround the island you find broken and left pieces of airco units and furnature The general service and maintenance level is really poorAnd we had to pay additionally for the boottrip to the island. This was not clear to us when we booked at booking.com.
Breakfast was great, level of hygiene poor. No place for me to put my towels in the public restrooms, ants in and outside the tents, the cloth of the tent not clean
Accomodation, variety of food and drinks in other locations, not to be labeled as glamping, but breakfast was great and the staff was nice
The relaxed and laid back vibe meant we could fully relax. Not pretentious at all which it easily could be. The experience was a once in a life time opportunity, to be on an uninhabited island in gorgeous surroundings. Reception staff were lovely.
Some areas of the resort needed some time, effort and care. The salt water pool always looked dirty, chlorine would of been a better option as it would provide a break from the salt water. Some staff were cold, moody and made us feel we were an inconvenience to them. One bar member actually physically barged my husband out of the way instead of politely saying excuse me. When going to buy ice cream the waitress rolled her eyes at us. Staff did not make us feel welcome which was such a shame.also the cost of the boat was ridiculous considering the local ferry was €10 for a family of 3. The obonjan boat was €55!!!!
I liked our tent. Great location. Our sea front lodge was near the sea and very peaceful. You can only hear the waves and crickets. The air condition works great. For high season there are no turists so it's great for relaxation.
Very poor organization. There were no events or an app where you can track events. There is so much potential to make it great but they probably have bad management. They should have organized movie nights and star gazing nights or some kind of events. We were there from thursday till sunday and there were no events. Kayak tour was cancelled twice due to bad weather at the evenings. Yoga teacher was friendly. Pizza at the pizzeria was great but food at the restaurants not so much. The staff is not all local and they don't seem to have a lot of experience. The island is not as clean as it should be.
