If a relaxing, romantic break in peaceful surroundings is in order, Villa Ružmarin, a collection of modern apartments near the village of Lun, is ideal. Direct flights operate from London to Zagreb with British Airways and Croatia Airlines and take just over 2 hours, it’s then a 2.5-hour transfer to the port of Prizna where you have a short ferry ride to the island of Pag.

Restaurants & Bars
The apartments are well set up for self-catering, but on a romantic break who really has time to cook?! Lun has several restaurants, a pizzeria and a café and is perfect for a short wander of an evening. For a wider range of restaurants and an inspiring nightlife scene, the city of Novalja is about 20 km away.
Pool & Activities
Lounging by the pool with a good book enjoying the ocean views is a wonderful way to pass the time here. The direct access to the beach is lovely too, whether you want to sunbathe on the sands, take a dip in the ocean or enjoy a moonlit stroll. Exploring the olive groves is also a relaxing pursuit, some of the trees are over 1500 years old; make sure you come at sunset as well as during the day, it’s beautiful and very romantic. A visit to Pag town is a fun day out; the town is well known for its delicious cheese, lace-making and salt – try and sample them all! If you fancy some island hopping, you can catch a boat from Lun to the island of Rab, one of the greenest islands which is covered in fragrant pine forests. But if relaxing and exploring aren’t your thing, to experience the livelier side of Croatia, the party beach hot spot of Zrće is 15.5 miles away!
For a blissful, peaceful stay, surrounded by Croatia’s natural beauty, the charming Villa Ružmarin in Lun offer a relaxing home from home experience.
