The property today
Hotel, restaurant, wellness and staff accommodation—already in place.
The hotel operates above Martinšćica Bay with 31 guest units, a professional restaurant kitchen, indoor wellness pool, treatment rooms, a 50-seat conference room and dedicated staff accommodation.
After nearly 20 years of ownership, the current owner is retiring and is prepared to support an orderly handover.
Restaurant
Large covered and open terraces, dining room and a fully equipped professional kitchen.
Wellness
Indoor heated pool and treatment rooms, with more wellness capacity than the current 31-key hotel requires.
Groups
A 50-seat conference room and an established relationship with organised coach and agency groups.
Staff accommodation
A dedicated staff building plus management and residential accommodation within the property.
Grounds
Landscaped Mediterranean gardens, internal access and a short walk to the coast.
Development on owned land
The first expansion phase is already inside the property boundary.
The three cadastral parcels included in the transaction allow the room count to grow while the restaurant, wellness centre, conference space and operating infrastructure remain in place.
Third accommodation building
Foundations are in place and a residential building permit exists on the owned T1-1 area. A new project can convert the site to accommodation and add roughly 30 rooms.
Additional floors and reconfiguration
Reconstruction, additional floors and internal reconfiguration can add rooms and repurpose the current residential level. The final room mix depends on the selected design.
Expanded staff accommodation
The low-rise staff building can be expanded for additional staff housing or other hotel services.
Optional second expansion phase
Nearby T1 land can be acquired separately for a later phase. It is not included in the sale and is not required for the approximately 90-key owned-property concept.
Planning context
Owned land and expansion areas on the adopted plan.
The map overlays the adopted UPU land-use plan on the cadastral base. It distinguishes the 5,823 m² included in the transaction from separately purchasable neighbouring land and public planning areas.

The investment logic
The restaurant, wellness centre and conference room already exist. More keys put them to work.
At 31 keys, the existing facilities have capacity to spare. A larger hotel creates its own guest base for meals, wellness and organised groups while using infrastructure that is already built.
