We were traveling north from Pag and decided to stay 1 night in Novi Vinodolski at Hotel Ruža. Before I begin, I MUST say that our GPS was VERY "confused" finding the Hotel's access, so be forewarned; the Hotel building can be SEEN from the main road, but the access road is BEHIND the building (between the building and the beach), and the access road is entered approximately 1,000 feet or so down the main road from the building. There is convenient free parking alongside the Hotel, on the beach side. Once we reached the "Reception", everything was easy. Our host was EXTREMELY friendly, and we had a couple of "rousing" conversations. Our host led us to our room, and we were pleased to have a patio-sized "balcony" with a view of the Adriatic. The room was clean and comfortable, and the Wi-Fi was good. In the morning, we enjoyed a tasty buffet breakfast with a "Croatian Omelette" containing regional ham. The Hotel is a few steps from the beach, with a view of an historic island just offshore.
