Krneza is a small village in Ražanac municipality, about 19 km from Zadar by road, for families who want a private pool and a garden. There is no resort strip, so shops and restaurants mostly mean getting in the car.
Krneza is one of six settlements in Ražanac municipality and had 164 residents at the 2021 census, so this is a working village rather than a resort. Most homes here have a private pool and a garden, every home has air conditioning, and they mostly sleep around six, with a few taking ten. The homes are spread over a few kilometres of the village and its surroundings rather than packed into one cluster. Zadar is about 19 km away by road, around 22 minutes by car. Evenings are mostly spent at the house, because a village this small will not have much open after dark. Out of season it is very quiet.
