For sale are a stunning range of 431 apartments and villas, built to top European standards, all with sea views and large terraces/patios or gardens.
Price Ranges: Apartments and villas from Euro 2.600 - 3.000 sqm.
Prices are contractually fixed and include individual air-conditioning and heating systems, fully fitted kitchens and bathrooms as well as flooring, tiling and parking spaces.
Sure-let: Buyers have a range of purchase options, including owner occupation or usage of the apartments or villas for four weeks of the year while still receiving a guaranteed minimum net rental yield.
Tight Market for Seafront Property
Recently issued planning regulations prohibit the development of sea front properties in Croatia – unless it is an exclusive low density tourism project approved by the government. We are in the rare position to be able to offer exactly that! This project is bound to be the first and only one of its kind for the foreseeable future.

The "Olive Island" Ugljan
The island Ugljan is the garden of the city of Zadar. The island, covered with pine trees, fig trees, vineyards and olive groves, received its name in connection with the abundance of aromatic oil, which has been extracted for over 2.000 years from the more than 100.000 olive trees. The oil is well-known for its high quality.
Despite its geography, the island has the benefits of urban convenience. Its close proximity to the mainland and frequent travel connections make it a convenient destination. Only 30 minutes of travel with regular ferry lines separate the island from the city. On Ugljan, a mild and healthy Mediterranean climate prevails, where the stillness of the sea changes with the favourable winds. The average air temperature from May to October is 22°C, 2.500 sun hours are registered annually and the summer brings the refreshment of a mistral breeze.
Bathers are drawn to the beautiful sand beaches. There are several restaurants on Ugljan, in which local specialties are offered. All those that love Mediterranean landscapes will greatly enjoy the wonderful panorama of the island.
Some short history details The island's current name was first recorded in 1325. It has been continuously inhabited since the early Stone Age. During Roman times, it was densely populated, particularly in the northwestern part, where the remains of many ancient buildings were discovered. The current towns were founded in the Middle Ages.

Croatia and Europe maps
By car (from Central Europe), there are two fast and problem-free routes through Austria (Salzburg - Tauern Tunnel - Villach...):
Route 1: Udine - Triest - Rijeka - then along the coast to Zadar Route 2: Karavanke Tunnel - Ljubjlana - Zagreb - Karlovac - Zadar
Hydrofoils and car ferries operate four times weekly between Zadar and Ancona, Italy. From the airport it takes 25 minutes to drive to Zadar. The Preko/Ugljan connection is 30 minutes by ferry (which departs/arrives about two times each hour), then it is a further 10 minutes of travel from the ferry to our Olive Island Resort.

Payment Schedule:
The payment schedule contributes further to the attractiveness of this unique project. It allows you to control real estate with rapidly increasing capital gains at only a fraction of the purchase price. A reservation fee of EUR 4.500 and two weeks later a down payment of 20% of the NET purchase price will be enough until the next payment. At this stage a mere 30% are due – again of the NET price. Only at completion in the last quarter of 2008 the outstanding balance is payable. All monies will be held in an escrow (safe) account with an Austrian bank. You are free to sell your contract on at any stage of the project!
