Orebic is an attractive developed yet unspoilt town on the beautiful, wine-growing Peljesac Peninsula, with a peaceful, pedestrianised seafront with historic buildings from 17th Century. It offers comprehensive facilities, sandy beaches, many shops, a museum and art collection providing insights on the town's interesting history of sea captains. The historic island of Korcula (birthplace of Marco Polo) can be reached by ferry in 15 minutes. Local restaurants provide Dalmatian food (seafood specialties) and the Peninsula's famous red wines 'Dingac' & 'Postup'. Recreational activities include hiking, excellent cycle paths, windsurfing, sailing, football, basketball, volleyball, tennis and pleasant walks in the surrounding countryside. The wonderfully clear sea is highly renowned for scuba diving and snorkelling. Mount St. Elijah (3153 ft) protects Orebic from winter winds and offers fantastic excursions for hikers to the top where you have splendid views over the archipelago of islands

Flights: British Airways return tickets from Gatwick are priced from £109 including Tax. There are 8 Economy price bands. Croatia Airlines fly from London or Manchester to Dubrovnik. Easyjet are rumoured to start flying to Dubrovnik in the coming year. Sky Europe is another fairly cheap option - and it gives you a chance to spend a day in Bratislava. Once in Bratislava it is very cheap to fly on to Dubrovnik. Ryanair currently the cheapest flight option is to fly to Italy with Ryanair. Ryanair to Ancona on the Italian east coast, then an overnight ferry to Split (and Vis,Hvar or Zadar) (cabins cost from £30 per person)

Car Hire: It is always cheaper to have purchased your car rental in Britain before setting off rather than trying to buy it in Croatia. We have discovered that Holiday Autos offered good rates service for car hire in Croatia. You can pick up the car from Dubrovnik airport and return it at the end of your stay. We have also used a local company Adria Rent who have matched and bettered the Holiday Autos rates – you can negotiate! They have the advantage of having an office in Orebic so you can just rent a car for your journeys and by the day as needed. They can be reached at 00 385 20 437066 or mobile 00 385 98 285 315. Also Thrifty Autos - Tel - 01494 751 600. The drive is stunning and best done in daylight, taking 90-110 minutes. You can also reach Orebic by ferry from Dubrovnik to Korcula island opposite then catch the local ferry across (15 min)

Other Activities: Snorkelling and mountain hiking

Good Apartment and excellent location near beach

Review Submitted: August 17, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
We had a great Holiday here! Family of 5 with children aged 4,8 and 9. Perfect for this age group but maybe not for toddlers as steep stairs to apartment.

Orebic is a great location within 2 hours of the airport at Dubrovnic. Clear water beaches, shops and wonderful local restaurants were all within 5 minutes walk away from the apartment which made for a very relaxing holiday. Visiting the island of Korcula is a 15 minute ferry away and a must - we enjoyed a stroll through the old town, lunch overlooking views of Orebic and an early evening swim on one of the beaches before taking the ferry home.

Can also recommend at least half a day in Dubrovnic to see the city and climb the city walls giving stunning views across the old town and the sea and islands - we managed to do this on our last day on the way back to the airport.

The Apartment itself was a good base and had two good sized balconies / terraces which gave excellent views and which were great for alfresco dining. The kitchenette (and barbecue) enabled us to produce lunches and a few basic evening meals but was not sufficiently equipped for much more- we think the owners plan to refit / upgrade the kitchen next year. The Apartment was clean and well presented although the furniture was a little sparse and a little old fashioned but good enough for our needs.

No Air conditioning but fans are provided which make a significant difference at night. During the day, the apartment is kept relatively cool by the sea breezes.

We also were offered use of a swimming pool at a local hotel - which we used on a couple of occasions. Would recommend it as the pool is right on the sea front and in a spectacular location.

Really appreciated information and help prior to and after booking from the English owners; Helen and David
