Climbing the Four Towers of Rab Town

One of the true highlights of Rab Island is exploring its iconic four bell towers, rising proudly above the medieval old town. Each tower offers a glimpse into Rab’s rich history and provides breathtaking views over terracotta rooftops, the Adriatic Sea, and surrounding islands. Climbing these towers is a rewarding experience for both history lovers and photographers, as you discover different architectural styles and the island’s unique skyline. The walk through Rab’s narrow stone streets connecting the towers is equally charming, filled with small shops, cafés, and local life. This experience combines culture, adventure, and stunning scenery, making it a must-do activity and one of the most memorable highlights of your stay on Rab.

With its stunning sunsets, it’s the ideal place to end a perfect summer day.

    We were here for the last 2 weeks before the end of the season, the place is nice but not much space for dogs to run around. Nice little beach was manageable and unfortunately not intended for dogs, but there are alternative options nearby. The poop bags for dogs are made of paper, good for the environment but not practical. We then had to get the conventional bags because we didn't know this paper version and couldn't cope with it at all.this just as a note.pool small but nice. Not overcrowded in the low season. Plaza was attractive, but the market was quite expensive and I saw expired food. The bakery was well stocked but on the last day of opening, to our surprise, it was closed so we couldn't have breakfast on the spot and couldn't take anything with us for the return journey.we didn't see any indication, otherwise we would have made provisions the day before. Our MH was very well equipped and modern. Cleanliness was also excellent not only in the home but in general. Service was nice but I found one thing unpleasant. We ran out of toilet paper on Sundays and asked for a roll at reception, unfortunately this was not possible. The market and also the Konzum nearby were closed. We have never experienced this at any other campsite and felt at a loss. We then found another solution. The location is otherwise very good. The old town of RAB is within easy walking distance. The path along the sea is beautiful. The walk to Barbat is also worthwhile. In short, we had a nice vacation but this place didn't quite convince us. Nevertheless, we say Hvala and remain loyal to Croatia.

    Wir waren die letzten 2 Wochen vor Saisonende hier.Der Platz ist schön allerdings für Hunde wenig Auslaufmöglichkeiten. Schöner kleiner Strand war überschaubar und leider nicht für Hunde gedacht, allerdings befinden sich alternative Möglichkeiten in der Nähe. Die Kottüten für Hunde sind aus Papier , zwar gut für die Umwelt gedacht aber nicht praktisch. Wir mussten uns dann die herkömmlichen Tüten besorgen weil wir diese Papier Variante nicht kannten und damit überhaupt nicht zurechtkamen.Dies nur als Hinweis.Pool klein aber fein. In der Nebensaison alles nicht überlaufen. Plaza war ansprechend, der Markt allerdings ziemlich teuer und ich habe abgelaufene Lebensmittel gesehen. Der Bäcker war gut bestückt aber am letzten Tag der Öffnung , hatte dieser zu unserer Überraschung geschlossen somit konnten wir nicht mehr vor Ort frühstücken und auch nichts für die Rückfahrt mitnehmen.Hinweis haben wir nicht gesehen , sonst hätten wir einen Tag zuvor vorgesorgt. Unser MH war sehr gut ausgestattet und modern. Sauberkeit war auch hervorragend nicht nur im Home sondern allgemein. Service war nett aber eine Sache fand ich unangenehm. Wir hatten sonntags kein Toilettenpapier mehr und haben an der Rezeption um eine Rolle gebeten, dies war leider nicht möglich. Der Markt und auch der Konzum in der Nähe waren geschlossen. Das haben wir bisher auf keinem anderen Campingplatz erlebt und fühlten uns aufgeschmissen. Haben dann eine andere Lösung gefunden. Die Lage ist sonst sehr gut. Die Altstadt RAB ist fussläufig optimal erreichbar. Der Weg am Meer entlang ist wunderschön. Auch der Weg nach Barbat lohnt sich. Kurzum wir hatten einen schönen Urlaub aber dieser Platz hat uns nicht ganz überzeugt. Wir sagen trotzdem Hvala und bleiben Kroatien treu.

    This was our second time here and we felt very comfortable. The sanitary facilities in our area were looked after by Christine and were really spotlessly clean. Everyone in the restaurant was very friendly and the food was really good. The supermarket is rather poor. There is pork tenderloin in the fridge that has been expired since 23.09.25. We pointed this out to the staff and nothing happened, on the contrary - the expired meat was nicely draped again and is still on sale today, on 30.09.25. A head of lettuce costs over €6 there. You have to be lucky at reception. Unfortunately, the young man has no idea at all, but the nice lady knows everything and always helps you. For shopping we just walk to Petra, which is within walking distance. We will definitely be back. All in all, the place is great, but there is a need for improvement at reception and especially at the supermarket.

    Wir sind zum zweiten Mal hier und fühlen uns sehr wohl. Die Sanitäranlagen in unserem Bereich wurden von Christine gepflegt und waren wirklich tip top sauber. Im Restaurant waren alle sehr freundlich und das Essen war wirklich gut. Der Supermarkt ist eher schlecht. Es liegt Schweinefilet im Kühltresen das seit dem 23.09.25 abgelaufen ist. Wir haben die Mitarbeiter darauf hingewiesen und es ist nichts passiert, im Gegenteil- das abgelaufene Fleisch wurde nochmal schön drapiert und liegt heute, am 30.09.25 immer noch zum Verkauf. Ein Salatkopf kostet dort über 6€. An der Rezeption muss man Glück haben. Der junge Mann hat leider überhaupt keine Ahnung, die nette Dame weiß alles und hilft einem immer weiter. Zum Einkaufen laufen wir dann eben zum Petra der Fußläufig zu erreichen ist. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder. Alles in allem ist der Platz super, aber an der Rezeption und besonders beim Supermarkt besteht Verbesseungsbedarf .

    Valamar standard - neat and tidy with friendly and helpful employees. One of our favorite late summer locations in Croatia. Would be nice if the restaurant is on the level... but there is a great one nearby - on the way to the town, so not that big of a deal.
