Villa Corcovado Deluxe Apartments with Heated Pool
Modern aparthotel with a heated saltwater pool near Vodice's beaches
Why guests love itVilla Corcovado Deluxe Apartments is a recently renovated aparthotel in Vodice, and I would recommend it to families who want a pool and a short walk to the sea. There is a heated saltwater swimming pool, a sun terrace, family rooms and an outdoor play area. Plava Beach and ACI Marina Vodice are a short walk away, Wi-Fi is free, and an EV charging station is available. The perfect rating rests on only 24 reviews.

Hotel Olympia Sky
Vodice's 149-unit seafront hotel from 2017, with a rooftop pool, an indoor pool and a shingle beach a few steps away
Why guests love itOlympia Sky gives a family several pools in one place. There is the rooftop pool, an outdoor pool and an indoor one, plus a shingle beach a few steps away with sunbeds and showers, so a wet or windy day still has a plan. Family rooms sleep four, and the larger spa suites sleep four or six. From 15 June to 15 September an entertainment programme runs for children and adults. The downside of a hotel this size is noise around the pools at peak times, and shingle means water shoes for small feet. Vodice's shops and harbour are close by.

SeeSea Hotel
A 65-room four-star in Vodice, 10 metres from the sea, with an infinity pool and the centre 500 metres away
Why guests love itSeeSea suits families with older children and couples more than toddlers. The infinity pool, the sea 10 metres away and a family-friendly restaurant serving breakfast, brunch and à la carte cover most days, and the centre of Vodice is 500 metres on foot for ice cream and the evening stroll along the riva. Plava plaža, the main town beach, is about 650 metres away. The limits: the pool is seasonal, the wellness area is charged separately, live music can carry into the evening, and pets are not allowed. With a guest score of 9.0 across 1,120 reviews, the service is consistent. I would choose it for a week in June or September.

Hotel Olympia
Beachfront hotel with multiple pools, spa, and family-friendly amenities
Why guests love itFor a family, Hotel Olympia is built around water and space: four swimming pools, sandy beaches 50 metres away and tennis courts, with a beach club for the afternoons. Rooms have air conditioning, balconies and private bathrooms, and a spa and wellness centre is available for the adults. Krka National Park is nearby for a day out. I would choose it for a resort-style stay, not for quiet.

Matilde Beach Resort
Beachfront apartments with panoramic views and Dalmatian dining
Why guests love itFor a family, Matilde Beach Resort offers apartments with private balconies or terraces, only 30 metres from the beach, so there is space and a place to sit outside while children sleep. Views take in Vodice Old Town and the nearby islands. The restaurant serves Dalmatian specialities and a lounge bar sits by the sea. I would choose it for a quiet, beach-focused holiday with self-catering flexibility.

Hotel Punta
Beachfront hotel with sea-view balconies, a spa, and all-inclusive options
Why guests love itHotel Punta sits on the beach in Vodice, a two-minute walk from the town centre, and I would suggest it to families who want the sea and the town's cafés within easy reach. The all-inclusive light option keeps meals and drinks simple with children. A 400 m² spa adds a heated indoor pool with hydromassage for cooler days. Ask for a room with a sea-view balcony. A guest score of 7.6 points to a dependable rather than polished stay.
