The setting is exceptional! The room is magnificent but some things need a facelift, particularly the kitchen area. Concerning the beds, here too, a facelift becomes essential, furniture is outdated and not very functional.

Magnificent location for a wedding. On the other hand, the rooms are really very light and leave something to be desired!! No hot water, broken shower head and above all the alarm which goes off at night without being able to stop it immediately!! I really think that there should be a complete maintenance and overhaul of the buildings regarding the rooms!! Ceremony on Saturday July 27, 2024.

What a waste! Such a beautiful setting, so poorly maintained! How is it possible to rent a wedding hall with such a dirty kitchen? Outdated equipment, microwave, dishwasher, coffee machine unusable. The caterer had to bring all his equipment and recreate an annex kitchen so as not to take any health risks! We had to clean the outside, sweep the terraces, leaves everywhere. It was very hot this weekend, no air conditioning ok but no fan available either. No official deigned to respond to the family's complaints over the weekend. Service 0/10

Church of St Donatus

The Church of St Donatus name refers to Donatus of Zadar, who began construction on this church in the 9th century and ended it on the northeastern part of the Roman forum. It is the largest Pre-Romanesque building in Croatia.

The beginning of the building of the church was placed to the second half of the 8th century, and it is supposed to have been completed in the 9th century. The Zadar bishop and diplomat Donat (8th and 9th centuries) is credited with the building of the church. He led the representations of the Dalmatian cities to Constantinople and Charles the Great, which is why this church bears slight resemblance to Charlemagne's court chapels, especially the one in Aachen, and also to the Basilica of San Vitale in Ravenna. It belongs to the Pre-Romanesque architectural period.

The circular church, formerly domed, is 27 m high and is characterised by simplicity and technical primitivism.
