Awesome Villa
This is a fabulous villa that suit any large group with its spaciousness while at the same time providing privacy in the way that it is laid out, in apartments. This does appear to be the way of doing things in Croatia and it works well. With the three separate apartments, there are different sleeping arrangements which would suit a large group of friends or family. There are also a range of communal areas from the comfortable loungers around the pool; the outdoor kitchen area with its large table and all the facilities for eating outside including a wine fridge and peca oven; the large deck outside the large ground level apartment with its table to seat 10 and the upstairs apartment with its significant space inside featuring an oversized TV, comfortable couches as well as a dining table seating 10 both inside and on the outside terrace. The views of Split were magical, especially at night and the location on the hillside of Kastel Sucarac meant there were also pleasant winds blowing keeping you cool outside. Inside, the air conditioning throughout all apartments was sufficient to keep us all cool in July/August so great for sleeping. All the interiors were of very high quality, immaculately clean and with plenty of linen including large swimming towels. All the beds were comfortable and a travel cot/ high chair was provided for our one year old. He enjoyed all the pool toys provided, especially the range of balls. We could have made great use of the gym but were more likely to be found on the loungers by the pool during our stay. Our host Milivoj was superb with clear communication before arrived and a thorough tour of the property on arrival. He provided us with great Croatian wines, juice, oil that he had produced from olive trees on the property and doughnuts! All our questions about local restaurants, activities and other queries were responded to immediately. His recommendation for Restoran Nautilus on the waterfront, a 10 minute walk away was excellent and we ate there twice during our week’s stay. The location of the villa meant that there were lots of places of interest to meet all our needs: Game of Thrones castle, Trogir and the beaches near there, Sibenik and of course Split within a 10-15 minute drive. We loved the local beach, located by Nautilus and with great swimming and much less crowded than those near Trogir and again a quick walk away. We have stayed in villas in Greece, Italy, France and this one, the best!
