Croatia recommended to second home buyersCroatia: 08 May 2008Croatia has been described as "a stunning, beautiful, dramatic and incredibly fascinating country" that is great for second home buyers and retirees. Although the cost of real estate has risen, the day-to-day cost of living in Croatia has remained flat, while retaining a "fabulous" quality of life, according to Amberlamb. "The pace of life is slower, the climate is more attractive than the British climate for example, and the people are welcoming," said director Rhiannon Davies. Furthermore, Croatia's transport infrastructure and healthcare are improving, which means the country is well on the way to becoming an overseas retirement hotspot once it becomes a member of the EU, possibly in 2010. "It is rising in terms of its appeal among would-be overseas retirees," she added. According to the Croatian tourist board, around 11 million tourists visited Croatia between January and November 2007, up eight per cent on the same period in 2006. Meanwhile, the EU has agreed to invest millions of euros in Croatia's tourism industry. See our Croatian featured properties
