In case you haven't had a chance so far, now it is the right time to visit this precious gem of the South Croatian Littoral – MALI STON! Walled by the longest defence wall in Europe, the town exists ever since 1333, dwelling in its stone houses and piscatorial ambiance bathed and surrounded by pure sea and abundant see fauna leaving no soul indifferent. Mali Ston is a town with tradition of preserving natural beauties, therefore as Nature Park it is able to offer a sense of true beauty and innocence bathed in the Mediterranean sun. Perhaps the richest offer of the Mali Ston Bay makes, amongst other riches, the Mali Ston Oyster, and top quality white flesh fish.

Initiator and main creator of the whole story is Mr. Ante Kralj, who unfortunately is no longer amongst us, but his ideas have continued in a successful existence and realisation by his brother Zeljko, his wife Lidija and the rest of the family. Ms. Lidija Kralj is a famous designer of all gastronomic delicacies that can be tasted in the two facilities of ours.
