Historical and Local Context:
The house is located in Malinska, the heart of the area known as Dubašnica, on the western part of Krk Island. Dubašnica, which takes its name from the rich oak forests of the region, was sparsely inhabited until the 15th century. Malinska itself was once a bustling port for the export of timber, a prized destination for the Viennese aristocracy in its heyday. The village, first mentioned in the 15th century as a sheltered anchorage, transitioned into a health resort in 1866, thanks to its mild climate and sunny disposition—boasting over 260 days of sunshine each year.
Today, Malinska is among the island’s most beloved tourist destinations, celebrated for its array of beaches, from rocky shores to sandy coves, all nestled within the region’s indented coastline. Whether you seek family-friendly sands, secluded coves, or vibrant beach bars, Malinska’s shores offer something for everyone. The beaches are connected by a network of walkways, presenting a natural tapestry that encourages exploration and adventure.
Not far from Malinska lies the tranquil village of Porat, once a fishing haven, now flourishing under the banner of tourism. Its name derives from the Italian "porto," meaning port, hinting at its maritime past. Like Malinska, Porat offers access to some of Croatia’s finest beaches, renowned for their beauty and variety.
Whether you’re drawn to this property as a holiday home, an investment, or a combination of both, the house presents an extraordinary opportunity. With the allure of the sea, the charm of its Mediterranean setting, and the rich history of Malinska, it offers a unique blend of modern comfort and timeless beauty.
