B&B Villa Sumrak Plitvica

This was a delightful choice for our one night stay in the Lake Plitvice area. It does seem like a long drive to reach the B&B on a narrow, winding, mountainous road and it is at the very end of the road. But we enjoyed the seclusion and peaceful atmosphere it provided. Mat greeted us as we arrived and parked, explained all we needed to know and got us settled in our very comfortable, modern accommodations. I believe the room we booked was described as mountain view but I didn't see that connection. We had received a text in the morning providing the dinner menu for the day and the communication about that was immediate. We met Mat's dad who was the barbeque chef and he was very pleasant and friendly. We enjoyed our dinner and the service was very nice. Mat explains about the wines they make and offer. We had a quiet and restful night and the breakfast was bountiful - offering eggs cooked to order along with the many other offerings. It is a real advantage to stay in the Plitvice Selo area as it includes a very lightly used back entrance to the parks. There is limited parking but a short downhill walk to the boat dock where you would be advised to catch one of the first boats to avoid a wait. Mat was very helpful in guiding us to this entrance and in explaining the best approach to the parks. But the very best part was the viewpoint of the parks that Mat directed us to as we departed. There is a path that takes you to an overlook of the lower lakes that is a better viewpoint than any inside the parks. It was absolutely spectacular and you will not see it if you enter the parks any other way. We have wonderful memories of our day there.

We were welcomed by Maia, the hostess. Our room was spacious. We had all toiletries included, plenty of towels and the whitest bed sheets. Beds were very comfortable. Although we could not serve dinner there, since our kids are really picky, the host recommended a restaurant in the area. However they served us a delicious breakfast- w homemade cookies, jams and fresh veggies & fruits. The info provided regarding the Plitvice park were very useful, made our trip much easier.

Great place with super hosts. We did last minute reservation yesterday afternoon and the host welcomed us early night. Very good rooms, nice atmosphere, delicious breakfast. Nice place in the Plitvice park, across the lakes in something like an ethno village. Unofficial Entrance 3 to the park nearby. Highly recommended if you wish to enjoy the area.
