If you&#8217;re already dreaming of returning to Istria, Kvarner or Dalmatia, or you&#8217;re coming for the first time in 2027, here are a few reasons why it&#8217;s worth planning now.<\/p>\n<h2>What are the benefits of Early Booking<\/h2>\n<h3>A wider choice<\/h3>\n<p>You have <strong>the entire selection of villas on the Adriatic at your disposal<\/strong> if you start early, whereas if you wait until the last minute, you&#8217;ll have to make do with what&#8217;s left.<br \/>\nThe most popular properties (villas <strong>near the beach<\/strong>, <strong>sea-view<\/strong> villas, and villas with <strong>wellness<\/strong> facilities) get booked up during the winter months. If you want to stay in a villa with excellent reviews, a large pool, or a direct sea view in July or August, it&#8217;s safer to book early, as these are the first to disappear from the calendar. When you start your search early enough, you have time to compare locations, amenities and prices.<\/p>\n<h3>Lower prices<\/h3>\n<p>Why are early booking discounts popular? The prices of villas and apartments are not fixed. They change regularly depending on how close the high season is. Deals for <strong>villas and apartments<\/strong> start to appear as early as September or October, and the prices are lower then too. Owners try to sell as many units as possible as early as possible, so the <a href=\"https:\/\/villas-guide.com\/en\/villas-in-croatia\/villas-with-special-offers\"><strong>Early Booking<\/strong><\/a> period peaks in December and January. <strong>As the summer months approach, prices rise.<\/strong><\/p>\n<div id='gallery-1' class='gallery galleryid-8043 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-full'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\"  href='https:\/\/villas-guide.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/calendar-and-yellow-pen.jpg' class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/villas-guide.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/calendar-and-yellow-pen.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/villas-guide.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/calendar-and-yellow-pen.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/villas-guide.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/calendar-and-yellow-pen-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/villas-guide.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/calendar-and-yellow-pen-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/villas-guide.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/calendar-and-yellow-pen-600x450.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\"  href='https:\/\/villas-guide.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/laptop-and-passport.jpg' class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-1\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/villas-guide.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/laptop-and-passport.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/villas-guide.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/laptop-and-passport.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/villas-guide.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/laptop-and-passport-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/villas-guide.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/laptop-and-passport-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/villas-guide.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/laptop-and-passport-600x450.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<h3>Enough time to plan<\/h3>\n<p>Besides booking and arranging the details with the owner of your chosen accommodation, there&#8217;s also a lot of paperwork to deal with before your holiday. Are your travel <strong>documents<\/strong> still valid? Do you have travel <strong>health insurance<\/strong>? Do you need a <strong>vignette<\/strong> to drive on foreign motorways? This paperwork is necessary, but it can easily be overlooked if you&#8217;re only focused on finding accommodation at the last minute, when the selection is limited and prices are high.<br \/>\nMany guests say this is why they booked their accommodation in advance. You&#8217;ll need enough time to organise flights, ferries, car hire and excursions. If you sort out your accommodation beforehand, you&#8217;ll avoid a last-minute rush and can plan your trip <strong>stress-free<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<h3>Greater security for larger groups<\/h3>\n<p>When you&#8217;re travelling alone or as a couple, it&#8217;s relatively easy to <strong>find accommodation last minute<\/strong>. For larger groups, the situation is completely different. A villa with four, five or more bedrooms, multiple bathrooms, a large area and a private pool has a limited number of available dates. The larger the group, the harder it is to find a suitable villa at the last minute.<\/p>\n<h3>Less stress, more happy anticipation<\/h3>\n<p>A reason for booking early that we often overlook is the <strong>peace of mind<\/strong> that comes from knowing your holiday is already <strong>sorted<\/strong>. When you book a villa months in advance, you have a concrete date to look forward to.<br \/>\nYou can start planning excursions, choose the beaches you want to visit and make arrangements with family or friends. Instead of the question \u201cWhere are we going this year?\u201d hanging over your head all winter, you have the answer much earlier and can start looking forward to your holiday.<\/p>\n<h2>Aren&#8217;t last-minute deals cheaper?<\/h2>\n<p>Last-minute deals (offers available at the last minute, just a few days before your desired travel date) do exist, and you can find them during the high season.<br \/>\nHowever, this option has several drawbacks. There&#8217;s no guarantee you&#8217;ll find the accommodation you want at the last minute at a price you&#8217;re willing to pay. It&#8217;s much more likely you&#8217;ll have to settle for a <strong>compromise<\/strong> you don&#8217;t want, but it will be the <strong>only available option<\/strong>. This could relate to the<strong> location of the villa<\/strong> or the <strong>length of your stay<\/strong>. For example, you might have wanted to book a week&#8217;s holiday in Pula, but only 5 days are available, in a different town.<\/p>\n<div id='gallery-2' class='gallery galleryid-8043 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-full'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\"  href='https:\/\/villas-guide.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/calculator-planning-vacation.jpg' class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-2\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/villas-guide.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/calculator-planning-vacation.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/villas-guide.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/calculator-planning-vacation.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/villas-guide.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/calculator-planning-vacation-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/villas-guide.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/calculator-planning-vacation-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/villas-guide.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/calculator-planning-vacation-600x450.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a title=\"\" data-rl_title=\"\"  href='https:\/\/villas-guide.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/piggy-bank.jpg' class=\"rl-gallery-link\" data-rl_caption=\"\" data-rel=\"lightbox-gallery-2\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/villas-guide.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/piggy-bank.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/villas-guide.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/piggy-bank.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/villas-guide.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/piggy-bank-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/villas-guide.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/piggy-bank-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/villas-guide.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/piggy-bank-600x450.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\n<h2>Five villas to consider<\/h2>\n<p>Below, we have selected five villas with excellent locations and a variety of additional amenities, and we believe you will find something for yourself.
