Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

In general, it’s not a bad restaurant, but I would like to draw the attention of the management and owners, that there is no client orienteering strategy at the moment.
I left a decent amount during my vocation, but I won’t you recommend this place and it’s because of relation to the client: the DJ ruined everything, I asked to change the music, but he said that he can’t do it. Then I asked waiter who is in charge for that, she told took me to the person who is responsible for that (I don’t know how was he a manager or the Owner) and he even talk to me just refused through the waiter
So it’s up to you, but as for me it was my the last visit to the place…

The entrance fee does not include any service, they charge you even for the toilet separately. And they have a short sandy section, but you can't walk in the beach not even there, it's full of sharp stones. Food options are also few and lame. Go to the queen's beach in Nin instead or just jump in the water from the old city corso in Zadar.

Beach is fake sand, three massive all inclusive next to it. The first 50 meters smells, would recommend going round a bit further where the big trees are. Water is nice but you need water shoes as the shore and surface is very rocky.

At first it looks nice - not so many people , sand , Sun.
But our kids got sick and vomiting . Fast search of Google reviews and news in Croatian revealed that this beach is CONTAMINATED WITH BACTERIA. Some dead fish in the bottom should made me thinking first . That is pity because it is really pretty place .

Visited this beach the first day we got to Zadar and was greeted by what I can only describe as a Dwayne Johnson wannabe with a security t shirt on (legit) demanding it was a “privit bich” and we had to pay to walk the 5 steps across his “privit bich”! There are so many more beautiful beaches and spots around the area I wouldn’t waste precious time in visiting it !

Walking round the coast led us to this artificial, concrete slab of a so called beach. We were stopped at the entrance by an "alleged" security guard who demanded payment to enter. Attempted to explain that we were only walking through the area and needed to access a road on the far side of this development, but to no avail. After losing the will to live we left and detoured around, which was a blessing, as the natural beaches were far superior to the concrete slabs we had seen. Found out after the event that the law has changed in Croatia and people should have free access to all beaches and charging is now not allowed, unless using facilities provided by vendors. We found much nicer beaches in the general area, without aggressive guards demanding money.

Still quiet shaken by the verbal and physical abuse we received by the security of the Falkensteiner hotel who are collecting money for the beach entrance. It was disgraceful.

In the immediate Zadar area, Kolovare beach is better, IMO. Borik beach is sand, but if you've been to any beautiful golden or white sandy beaches like many in Australia or Italy, this is not the same sand. It's a bit coarser and is brown and slightly dirty looking. Water is not the beautiful clear blue waters of nearby island beaches. Water is green due to rocks underneath. Kolovare has no sand, but the pebbles/gravel (look to have been artificially laid down) are clean. Kolovare also seems to be more popular with the locals. Honestly though, if you're coming from abroad, don't come to Zadar for a beach holiday. You'd rather go to a beach on one of the nearby islands, or better yet Split or Dubrovnik and their islands.

Good range of beach bars, showers and toilets. Beautiful views over the old town. Woodland comes right down to the beach so providing plenty of shade. Breeze from the sea helps to stay cool. Downside is that beach is rocky so need beach shoes.

We spent two weeks in Croatia (Pula, Split, Zadar and Plitvice National Park). We did not have any issues in any of these places and had a fantastic time...except for Zadar. We will never return. We hired two bicycles from A&R Rentals- a car and bicycle rental and money exchange just across from the old town. After handing over the money, we were taken out the back to a dirty garage and given two cheap bikes. We rode for no more than 10 minutes when there were issues with one bike. We returned to A&R immediately. The girl working there accused us of 'breaking the bike', then a waiter from the next door restaurant came out and started to scream at us. The girl told us that she would 'break' us and called me a b#tch. We were quite afraid at this stage, so left without a refund and without new bikes. Then, at a supermarket a few doors up, we were not given the correct change and were overcharged for a few items. Apart from this, the old town is lovely, but very small and you really do not need more than an hour there. I would definitely rethink any holiday to Zadar.
