Karlovac Beach Hotel

" My family and I stayed at Villa Stone in Čatrnja, Rakovica for one night while visiting Plitvice National Park, and I honestly wish we could’ve stayed longer. From the moment we arrived—late in the evening and in the rain—we were welcomed with genuine warmth by Mate, the host. Mate went above and beyond. Not only did he help us get settled in after our long travel day, but he also cooked us a full homemade dinner, which was a truly generous and memorable gesture. His kindness made us feel less like hotel guests and more like family. The rooms were spotless, beautifully designed, and incredibly comfortable. It felt like a true countryside retreat. The setting is peaceful and picturesque, with cows and sheep nearby, which kept our children completely entertained. If you're heading to Plitvice, do yourself a favor and stay here. Between the hospitality, the comfort, and the charm of the location, Villa Stone is easily one of the best places we've stayed on our trip. We cannot recommend it highly enough."

"Absolutely gorgeous views of the castle & farmland! Family owned & operated, they are so friendly & welcoming! The bed & linens were very comfy. Food & drinks in the restaurant were excellent & inexpensive. "

"Everything was fabulous…lobby smelled a little bit like a wet dog or pets. But property was clean and staff and food was awesome. I’d stay here again. "

"The hotel was clean and the room was a large family room. It needed updating but was perfect for our one night stay after visiting plitvice. "

"Friendly staff, comfortable room, good food. "

"We had stayed at this property six years ago - and returned a second time . It is in a great location and the rooms are spacious as well as the bathrooms . The kitchen is small but impressively well stocked and has all the amenities you would want to cook in instead of going out to dinner every night . I would recommend and definitely stay there again!"
