Beautiful, conveniently located, traditional villa with wonderful views
This super villa is a few steps away from the sea and a friendly bar with restaurants within a very short walk. It's also close to the harbour where you can pick up a boat to Dubrovnik. The grounds of the villa has places for sun lovers and those who prefer shade - including a lovely terrace which overlooks the coast. Katarina was an excellent host, who really wanted us to have the best possible experience in this very special place.
Don't miss out! Reserve now and get a full refund if you change your mind within 48hrs.
