For most of us, the perfect vacation is time in a beautiful house by the sea, right next to a wonderful beach, far away from the city bustle and hectic life.
To make those dreams a reality, all you have to do is come to the amazing Croatian coast and its islands - the pristine nature, crystal-clear sea, and picturesque towns and villages there and ideal for total relaxation.
That’s why houses in this part of Croatia are becoming increasingly sought after, not just on the domestic, but also on the international market. More and more foreigners are coming to look for their slice of heaven on the eastern side of the Adriatic, and it’s not rare for a major celebrity to make a purchase here, either.
Houses on the seaside are an ideal place for a vacation, no matter if you’re here with your family or just with your friends, but they can also be a great investment. Here’s why.
So, Vacation homes by the sea - yes or no? Over the last few years, the answer has increasingly been a resounding “yes”.
Like we said, houses by the sea are perfect for complete relaxation, and all across the Croatian coast, there are plenty of stunning locations that guarantee peace and quiet during your stay.
However, it needs to be said that houses like this are often beautiful villas with several bedrooms, a pool, multiple storeys, and many other features that simply add so much to your overall vacation experience.
Add to that the fact that you can often find such a house right next to the sea, on a beachfront, with an incredible view of the Adriatic, and you will start to get the idea of just how heavenly this place is.
In houses like this, you will have incredible evenings during which a gentle breeze will be cooling you, and the only company will be that of crickets in the nearby trees. Not to mention the feeling you get when sipping coffee on a terrace at sunrise.
Having such a house at your disposal whenever you wish is a dream come true, but it can also be a great investment.
You see, houses at the seaside, no matter if they are right on the beach or in a secluded place, are in VERY high demand, both for sale and for rent. Because of that, you will have no problems getting a great return on your investment, and it is estimated that, in some cases, you can pay off a whole house by renting it out to tourists in just six years!
Living by the sea, even if it’s just for a few days if you don’t own a house there, will have a soothing effect on you in several ways. We’ve already mentioned some that are primarily connected to nature.
Indeed, a secluded house on the beach, for example, is a perfect cure for stress. The sound of the waves as you slowly drift into sleep, the smell of the sea combined with the pine forest around, the beach where you can leave all your troubles behind you…
So, after a long day (or week) of work, there’s no better thing than to come to a place that is only yours and where there’s nobody else except you and your loved ones.
But Croatia’s coast can offer so much more.
