Just registered 5 minutes ago. A newbie to this excellent site. I'm Canadian born (German Dad / Finnish Mother) 1987 London England resident. Bit nationalistically mixed up. In 2005 I "did a Victor Kiam" (of Remington Microscreen shaver fame). I liked Croatia so much I bought the country...actually just 8 properties. What an adventure that was in terms of everything that could go wrong did go wrong.
Anyhow, 18 months later it looks like my 8 properties will be ready to rent. Apologies for the long winded summary.
I note that your previous conversations have been somewhat more focused on the long established France & Spanish markets.
Now the key question. Can anyone suggest a good holiday rental listing web site for Croatia ?

Hello Erich
Welcome to Croatia. A truly challenging place to run a holiday rental business.
I am from Denmark (don’t mention the drawings please:) and have Croatian connections but still find it very troublesome to operate in a sensible way.
I have been at it for three years now and can tell you that there is no single website that will help you. There are too many apartments and too little organisation. Even if this year seems to be a little better than last year, there are still too few guests to really make rental profitable.
I will post some of the websites later. At the moment I am “on the road� doing my job and will not be back until Sunday.
Anyway you seem to be having a good website already and I suggest you put energy into that initially. I am getting most of the bookings through my website – and it has been tough to get it recognised well in the search engines.

There is no single great site for Croatia.
I am most successful with Holiday rental (expensive – mostly British). Homelidays (reasonable – mostly Italian and French). Owners direct (UK and Ireland)
Gastgeber net (will give you a link – Germans)
I will send you a mail with URL of other sites that has given me a few bookings.
Good luck
