Portun

Property care between Šibenik and Split

Your home on the coast,looked after as if you were here.

We are a small local team that checks, maintains and keeps an eye on holiday homes and apartments while their owners are away — and sends you photos, so you can see for yourself.

Why Portun

The portun is the gateway. We hold the key.

In Dalmatia, the portun is the stone gateway of a house — the heavy door in the wall that leads from the street into the courtyard. Whoever holds its key looks after everything behind it.

That is what we do for owners who live elsewhere. We live on this coast and we know these houses — stone walls, terraces, gardens, cisterns and pools — and we look after yours as carefully as if it were our own.

  • Local and on site

    We live and work on this stretch of coast, so getting to your property is a short drive, not a special trip.

  • One contact, in English or Croatian

    You always deal with the same person, who answers your messages and arranges local tradespeople for you.

  • Regular photo reports

    After every visit you get a short report with photos, so you know exactly what was done and how the house looks.

Services

What we take care of

Pick what you need — a single visit, or regular care all year round.

  • Common area maintenance

    Stairwells, entrances, courtyards and shared terraces kept clean and tidy, with small faults reported before they turn into big ones.

  • Garden maintenance

    Mowing, pruning, watering and seasonal tidying, so the garden is in shape when you or your guests arrive.

  • Pool monitoring

    Regular checks of the water, its level and the equipment, plus opening and closing the pool for the season.

  • Property inspection

    A scheduled walk-through inside and out: doors, windows, damp, leaks, the roof, and whatever a storm may have left behind.

  • Keyholding

    Your keys kept safe and close at hand — for guests, tradespeople, deliveries or emergencies.

  • Spring clean

    A thorough clean before the season: airing the house, dusting, windows, terraces and outdoor furniture.

  • Call-out service

    When something goes wrong — a storm, a power cut, an alarm — we go and check, and tell you what we found.

  • Anything else on request

    Meeting a plumber, taking in a parcel, getting the house ready for your arrival? Just ask.

How it works

Three simple steps

  1. Get in touch

    Tell us about your property and what you need — by email, phone or WhatsApp.

  2. We visit the property and agree a plan

    We come to see the house, walk through it with you in person or on a video call, and agree what needs doing and how often.

  3. Regular visits and photo reports

    We look after the house as agreed and send you a short report with photos after every visit.
