When I first became involved in the family business it began as more of a hobby than a job. I've always been a very social person and liked meeting people from new cultures and backgrounds whilst enjoying having fun and creating a pleasant atmosphere. I am very focused person for whom the hospitality industry comes very naturally to. I am always happy to assist guests at anytime in order to ensure that their expectations are met and exceeded.

The Village of Rakovica is located only a short 8 km drive from the famous Plitvice Lakes National Park, and is adorned with the pristine beauty of nature, charming landscapes, historic Barac's caves and viewpoint "Zvjernjak". Rakovica is most notably associated with the "Rakovička buna" of 1871 and as a mark of respect to the leader of the rebellion Eugen Kvaternik. His monument was put up in the town and unveiled in 1933. Only a 15 km drive from Rakovica is Rastoke, the historic center of the Croatian municipality of Slunj. This old part is known for its well-preserved mills and the picturesque little waterfalls along the Slunjčica river. Due to its outstanding natural beauty and historical tradition, Rastoke village was listed in 1962 under the protection of the State Directorate for cultural and historical heritage. Lovers of horseback riding can enjoy diverse Velebit and visit the "Ranch Jelov Klanac" and enjoy riding through forests, meadows, fields, mountain paths and river valleys. In addition, you can also experience the unforgettable experience of rafting on beautiful rivers whose 200 km of stream are perfect for exciting and at the same time relaxing adventure.
