The house is ideally located amongst the hills outside of Split. This elevated location almost makes the house seem as if it were built entirely into the hillside and offers spectacular views of the bay below.
Staying outside the home, the garden area is finished in stone and detailed fantastically to cater to all age groups. There is a barbecue, al fresco dining area, sun loungers, a large parasol, and a pool.

Region
The Dalmatian coast is a veritable treasure trove of stunning landscapes and historic towns, and Omis, situated halfway between the famous port city of Split and the energetic town of Maksarka, is no exception. With its rich history, scenic backdrop, and a plethora of attractions, Omis stands out as a unique and captivating destination for those seeking to explore the charm of Croatia. The town's history is deeply intertwined with its dramatic geographical setting, which is dominated by the imposing Cetina River Canyon and the Mosor Mountain Range.
The old town of Omis, with its narrow cobblestone streets and stone houses, is a place where history and culture converge. It’s a charming place to explore on foot and soak up the local way of life. There are a number of historic churches that you’ll come across while exploring - the Church of St. Michael, the Church of St. Peter, and the Church of St. Rocco, which all showcase intricate architectural details and a sense of reverence. The old town is also home to an abundance of restaurants, cafes, and local shops, it’s an excellent spot to savour authentic Croatian dishes and find unique souvenirs.
One of the most prominent historical attractions in the town is the Mirabella Fortress, often called Peovica. Perched high on a rocky outcrop, this fortress was built during the 13th century and was used as a hideout by the notorious Omis pirates who terrorised the Adriatic Sea. Today, visitors can climb up the steep path to the fortress and enjoy panoramic views of the town, the coast, and the surrounding landscapes.
Omis boasts a pristine stretch of coastline with a variety of beaches, each catering to different tastes. One of the most popular is the sandy beach at the mouth of the Cetina River, offering calm waters perfect for swimming and sunbathing. Adventurous spirits may prefer the pebbly beach of Brzet, known for its perfect conditions for windsurfing and kitesurfing. Just a short drive from Omis, there's the small village of Stanici, which is renowned for its unspoiled beaches and crystal-clear waters. It's a serene place to relax and escape the crowds often found in more touristy locations.
The Cetina River is a defining feature of Omis, and one of the most exhilarating activities here is to take a rafting excursion along its emerald waters. The river cuts through the impressive Cetina Canyon, creating a thrilling white-water rafting experience that appeals to adventure seekers and nature lovers alike. The journey offers panoramic views of the rugged cliffs, lush forests, and the charming villages that dot the landscape.
The nearby Biokovo Nature Park is an outstanding natural attraction. The Biokovo Mountain Range, part of the Dinaric Alps, offers incredible hiking opportunities, with well-marked trails leading to panoramic viewpoints where you can marvel at the Adriatic Sea and the islands scattered along the coast. The juxtaposition of the rugged mountain terrain and the azure waters is simply stunning and will leave a lasting impression.
The history, natural beauty, and cultural vitality of Omis combine to create a destination that is rich in character and charm. Whether you're seeking adventure on the Cetina River, exploring the medieval fortresses, or simply savouring the local cuisine, Omis has something to offer every traveller who ventures to this utterly enchanting corner of the Dalmatian coast.

Exceptional location!
Exceptional location! High above the sea, below the very top of the mountain, with a fantastic view and silence interrupted only by the singing of birds and the chirping of crickets. This position involves using a car. When lying by the infinity pool you simply enjoy the peace and the view that never gets bored. The house is very old, but very well renovated and modernly equipped. The rooms are comfortable and spacious, of course with magnificent views. The villa has everything you need for a complete vacation!

Perfect
The house was exactly how it was shown in the photos. New, meticulously done, very clean, nicely decorated with all that you would need. It is at the top of a Mountain and the drive up there is a bit tricky in places, you definitely need a car to go anywhere as it is isolated. You do have neighbours in the Villa next door which is owned by another family member. If you are looking for somewhere to relax with stunning scenery, then this place is ideal.

We had a wonderful week in this lovely property.
It is all new and there is nothing that is missing, the owners have thought of everything! The air conditioning works well, the beds are comfy and everything is there that you could possibly need. The views are amazing and so is the pool. The owners themselves are very friendly and kind and nothing is too much trouble. The location is great, between Omis and Split and there are nearby pebbly beaches should anyone want them along with restaurants. It is a drive up to the house from the coast but the spectacular views and the house are well worth it!
Don't miss out! Reserve now and get a full refund if you change your mind within 48hrs.
