very overpriced for what it is. - well what we paid anyway
So, I think I need to write a more grounded review. It also sees that the apartments reviews get mixed up a bit so this is a review of our stay at apartment Susie for two weeks end of July beginning Aug 2018.
The best way to describe the apartment is, functional! I'll start with the interior. Yes it has a double hight Kitchen/Living room, great lots of space above me.
The upstarts bedroom has sloped ceilings so don't get up quick and the blind is useless expect lots of light early morning.
The upstairs toilet is set right back under a sloped ceilings you almost have to crawl to get to it. and if your over 5 foot duck when walking down the stairs or you'll crack your head.
The photos are a bit misleading as they are a mix of all the apartments. phots, 20,21 and 22 are Susie. the bedrooms are not similar to the other apartments. they are small
The balcony is tiny with 2 aircon units that drip and are very noisy. We were 4 people so trying to all sit out and not get dripped on was not the easiest.
There are no staff on site as advertised. its an apartment block with mainly locals and a few others are rented, The contact your given for the "manager" just gets annoyed when you call him to get the keys.
You have to pay a breakage deposit. no idea why they just come to the door at an arranged time and hand it back and go.
The location pin on Homeaway is wrong its set back much further from the beach then advertised.
Now onto the area.
Okrug is essentially just lots and lots of apartments blocks, and heavily populated during the tourist season , the beaches get very crowed, wherever you go on the island. if you have not got your towel down by 6am don't expect a good spot, ignore the closest beach and the main Copacabana beach, if you want true clear waters you need to head to Put Tatinje or Duga. again they get busy quickly. or get a boat to another island.
if you go out to eat in the evening get the water taxi/bus only 60kn for 4 to Trogir. It as a much better atmosphere and restaurant then Okrug, expect to queue in either if you have not reserved.
Overall I can't shake the annoyance over what I paid for the apartment. At least the locals got a good laugh out of it, and delight in showing me apartments for half the price.
