About Krk/Njivice
Njivice is a small village of about 1,100 residents on the north-west coast of Krk, 6 km south of Omišalj. It began as a fishing village; resort development started in 1930 with the building of Hotel Luka, now the Hotel Jadran, and tourism is still what the place does. The D102, the island's north to south road, skirts the east side of the village. Our homes sit tightly together in and around the village. Most are one-bedroom apartments and houses for around four, many with a garden and nearly all with air conditioning. Private pools are rare. Beaches are the draw, with a very blue sea and plenty of shade.
