Where should I live in Rovinj?
We asked digital nomads and expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered:
"Finding a place to live in Rovinj, involves several steps. First, you need to determine your budget and the type of accommodation you're looking for. This could range from apartments, houses, or even villas, depending on your preference and financial capability. Next, you should research about the different neighborhoods in Rovinj to understand their unique characteristics. Some popular areas include the Old Town, Borik, and Centener. Consider factors such as proximity to amenities, safety, and the overall atmosphere of the neighborhood. Once you have a clear idea of what you're looking for, you can start your search. There are several online platforms where you can find listings for rental properties in Rovinj. Websites like Booking.com, Airbnb, and Njuskalo.hr are popular among locals and expats. These platforms allow you to filter your search based on your preferences, and you can also read reviews from previous tenants. Alternatively, you can engage the services of a real estate agent. They can provide you with expert advice and access to listings that may not be available online. However, keep in mind that you may need to pay a commission for their services. Once you've found a potential place, arrange for a viewing. This will give you a chance to inspect the property and ask any questions you may have. If you're satisfied with the property, you can then proceed to negotiate the terms of the lease. Before signing the lease, make sure to read it carefully. Understand the terms and conditions, including the duration of the lease, the rent, and any additional costs such as utilities or maintenance fees. If everything is in order, you can then sign the lease and make the necessary payments. Finally, once you've secured your new home in Rovinj, you'll need to register your address with the local authorities. This is a legal requirement in Croatia and can usually be done at the local police station," said one expat in Rovinj.
