Climbing the Four Towers of Rab 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.

Summary created out of 208 reviews

This holiday park is located directly on a beautiful sandy beach with crystal-clear water and a very gradual entry into the sea – ideal for families with young children and dogs. Guests particularly praise the location, friendly staff, and sanitary facilities that are cleaned multiple times daily by dedicated personnel. The park offers various amenities including a supermarket, restaurant, children's animation, and a separate dog beach, all within short walking distance. Some visitors mention noise disturbances and dated facilities, but most experience a quiet, family-friendly atmosphere.

    We were parked in our RV in the front row, 50 meters from the beach. It’s definitely a beautiful spot. The water is very shallow for the first 200 meters—ideal for small children. What’s a bit annoying are the e-scooters and cars that drive way too fast along the promenade.
    The only real solution is to install barriers, posts, or speed bumps to slow down the fast-moving vehicles.

    Wir waren mit dem Wohnwagen in der ersten Reihe 50 m vom Strand entfernt. Das ist auf jeden Fall eine schöne Lage. Das Wasser ist 200 m sehr niedrig. Ideal für kleine Kinder. Was etwas nervt sind die E Scooter und Autos, die viel zu schnell über die Promenade fahren.
    Als Abhilfe gehen eigentlich nur Absperr, Pfosten oder Geschwindigkeit Buckel um die schnellen fahrenden Fahrzeuge, einzubrennen.

    If you are a camper or traveling with an RV, this site might work well for you. However, if you are used to hotel-style comfort and services, it will likely fall short of your expectations.

    The Good
    Great layout and prime locations reserved for tents and RVs.

    Nice sandy beach with clear water

    The Bad
    Location & Space: … Mobile homes are placed away from the beach, taking a backseat to camping pitches. On top of that, the mobile homes are squeezed quite close together, offering very little privacy.

    Slow Check-in: Despite completing the check-in online in advance, we still had to wait 25 minutes at reception to get our keys.

    Lack of Services & Housekeeping: There is no regular cleaning service for the mobile homes—everything is strictly strictly “do it yourself”; Towel exchanges are not done automatically; you have to request them a full day in advance.

    Maintenance Issues: One bathroom was completely missing soap, and the shower soap dispenser was faulty—the pump kept getting stuck and dispensed liquid painfully slowly.

    Overall, it is a fine spot for traditional camping, but I wouldn't recommend renting a mobile home here if you expect basic hospitality standards.
