Could not possibly express how much we loved our host, Mario.
Could not possibly express how much we loved our host, Mario. He was super attentive, easy to reach, and went out of his way to make us feel at home - including preparing us a traditional Croatian Pekah feast and staying with us to share stories and enjoy a few pivos! The villa was beautiful, well-equipped, and had a pantry stocked with wine, beer, olive oil, jam, honey, etc. All at prices we couldn't match at the local grocers. The six of us were more than comfortable, and it was the perfect place to escape the hustle of Split and enjoy some relaxing evenings talking about all the amazing things we'd seen and done that day. Seven nights weren't nearly enough! And I'm not sure I'm ever going to get readjusted to a day without a sauna and a dip in the pool. Podstrana is small, but everything you need is within walking distance and Split/Trogir are easily reached by Uber.
