On the Dalmatian Coast between Split and Zadar, this modern apartment sits in the picturesque town of Tribunj. You’re a five-minute stroll from the harbour, where boat charters await to whisk you to the Adriatic islands, and just beyond this, Tribunj beach is where to spend sunny days. The crowning glory of Tribunj is the ancient quarter, jutting out on an island into the Adriatic Sea, which is just a five-minute walk away.

The apartment is classy and modern inside, with sparkling chandeliers sitting against a rich, plum feature wall. The full, sleek kitchen matches the white leather sofas in the open-plan living area and double glass doors lead to the private balcony. Out here is the highlight of the apartment, with loungers to soak up the rays, a dining set and a lounge area on a second balcony for cocktails at sunset. The view out over the red rooftops to the sparkling Adriatic is a reminder of how close you are to the sea.
