Family of four holidays in Croatia for 63 euros

A family of four found accommodation on the island of Ciovo in August for 63 euros, staying in a caravan with basic amenities. The sea was just a few steps away, with two beaches nearby. They prepared most meals themselves, bringing an electric grill to cut food costs. The parents noted the absence of TV and video games as a bonus, as the children were screen-free throughout the holiday.
