  Great location, lovely pool, views and outside space

  Six of us had a lovely stay in this villa. It’s perfect for a festival in the Garden Resort - 10 mins walk and the pool was delightful to jump into when we got back. There is a swimming beach and a fun beach bar just across the road, 5 mins walk to a shop. The outside space and views are fab, nicer than in the pics. Inside is a bit dated but our room had excellent aircon and a comfy bed so good sleeps. Roza potters around watering plants but was not intrusive. She left us figs from the garden which were delicious. Helpful owners were always quick to reply with local recommendations. Love to stay here again if we attend another festival.

  Bring an eyeshade as thin curtains. The walk up is super steep, fine for us but you would struggle if you’re not fit or mobile. That said, Roza is 88 and walks up twice a day after her shop and swim!

  Large home with an exquisite view and all the fixings, with ultimate outdoor space.

  Outdoor space to die for. Convenient location for the The Garden and the town and locals beach. Rooms are super comfortable with good working ACs and lovely beds. Hosts are sweet as can be.

  Not much! But you do have to walk up a steep hill to get your bags there.

  A magical place!

  We loved Villa Paladin! We stayed here as a family of 4, with a 9yo and a 6yo. The outside space and pool were just magical (just like the photos, although perhaps these don't do the little terraced garden justice - its full of fig trees, lime trees, rosemary... ). The inside is rustic in decor, but everything was spotlessly clean. Roza (the owner) lives downstairs and she was delightful. She met us on arrival (with a big bowl of figs in the fridge), and popped over one morning at breakfast-time with a bowl of freshly made doughnuts which the kids wolfed down. (I saw one comment on Booking.com that said she was intrusive - this was not our experience at all. She respected our space and was just lovely - I think she came round on occasions to water the garden early morning or when we were out some evenings). To summarise- Clean bedding and towels, good air con, beautiful views (from the 2 double bedrooms as well as the terrace). Quiet surroundings (and quiet at night time). Tisno is great for families. We had a magical week here - and could have stayed the whole summer if we could!

  - We probably should mention the steep track up! (Maybe include some information /directions in some welcome info? It's fine, but we were really not sure about it when we first arrived!) - For awareness to others, the interior is rustic (and does have unnecessary clutter), but we found this endearing. It is nice that it is still owned but a croatian family and is not a sterile 2nd home.
