Experiences
Welcome to Ugljan - The Island of Olive Trees, Sun & Sea
Just a short ferry ride from Zadar, Ugljan is where untouched nature meets authentic Dalmatian charm. Known as the “green island” for its olive groves and pine forests, it’s a place where time slows down and every moment invites you to reconnect — with yourself, with nature, and with the Adriatic way of life.
At Hotel Preko Ugljan Island – Curio Collection by Hilton, your island journey begins. Whether you’re here to explore scenic cycling trails, dive into hidden coves, enjoy fresh seafood by the sea, or simply enjoy a sunset view, you’ll find experiences that stay with you long after your stay.
This is more than a destination - it’s an invitation to feel the rhythm of the island.
