Accommodation FAQ
Where should I stay for Zrce Spring Break?
In Novalja, the town 2.5 km from Zrće Beach. It has the most places to stay, restaurants and shops – and an Uber gets you to the beach in minutes.
How many nights do I need?
A festival weekend runs from Thursday 4 PM until early Sunday morning, so three nights (Thursday to Sunday) cover it. Check-in is usually from 2 PM on Thursday, unless you arrive a day or more earlier, and check-out is usually around 10 AM on Sunday, unless you decide to stay longer.
When should I book?
As early as you can. The best places in Novalja go first, and prices usually rise closer to the festival. A few months before the festival starts, new properties also become available for booking, so it’s worth checking again then.
How do I get from my accommodation to Zrće Beach?
Take an Uber – it is the easiest way, day and night. Local taxis also run 24/7.
