Location and amenities in relaxed seclusion

Linardići is a place of complete deceleration. As the impressive drone shot from above shows, the village nestles gently in a green landscape of woods and scrub. Thanks to its slightly elevated position, many of the modern stone villas enjoy a breathtaking, unobstructed view over the Kvarner Bay and the neighbouring island of Cres opposite.

As there are deliberately no noisy shops, big hotels or through traffic in the village itself, heavenly peace is guaranteed. Daily shopping is still child’s play: in the directly adjacent village of Milohnići you’ll find the small, well-stocked Trgovina Krk supermarket. Here you can get everything for daily needs plus freshly baked bread in the morning.

You’re also well catered for in culinary terms. Also in the neighbouring village of Milohnići, the traditional Konoba Pud Brest (known for its unique setting under an old tree) and the cosy Konoba Pod Prevolt invite you to enjoy regional delicacies. Be sure to try the homemade Šurlice pasta or fish fresh from the Adriatic.

History and development

Linardići’s roots go back a long way: the first records date from the 15th century, when the Linardić family, who gave the village its name, settled here. For centuries, life in the Šotovento was shaped by hard farm work, livestock farming and olive growing. In the last two decades the village has undergone a remarkable development. Without losing its traditional charm with its typical dry-stone walls, Linardići has become one of the most exclusive addresses for high-quality holiday homes and luxury villas on Krk Island.
