It was a nice quiet place with a great view.
Stayed October 2011
We loved the location. Owner was very helpful. One criticism that may help further rentals though - The property is really quite difficult to find until you know where it is! We were lucky in the end as the owner met us later in the day and lead the way there. We found them very generous spirited. Great weather, beautiful sea, friendly people, beautiful national parks, great fresh produce market in Trogir.
Stayed May 2011
Prior to our departure staff were very helpful and prompt in dealing with replies. Thank you. The girls who waited for us on arrival and communicated with us during our stay were fantastic. Very pleased with their helpfulness.
Better bed linen could have been provided and maybe some replacement linen so that we could change this mid-week. The property was in a remote area but the location in the bay was lovely. It was peaceful and quite. As the property was quite remote some basic items such as bread/milk/laundry detergent at the property on arrival would have been welcomed.Impressed with: Beautiful sea
Not impressed with: Lack of choice in restaurants.
Favourite villa moment: We just enjoyed being by the sea in a peaceful location.Stayed July/August 2014
The property was very comfortable, but would have liked to have 2 twin beds in the second bedroom instead of double as I had two teenagers. The smaller double bed was slightly too small. Mirrors in the bedrooms would be great. Also air conditioning in the living room was great but fans were a must in the bedrooms.
Apart from that the villa was lovely especially around the swimming pool area.
The owner and his family were a delight and very helpful. He gave us lots of information and was very helpful.
I googled villas in Croatia and your site looked the most interesting as you mainly deal with Croatia. I am impressed with the service and suggestions made when I first called up to say that we had never visited Croatia before and gave the budget that we had. Villa Vinisce was perfect for what we wanted.
Impressed with: Loved the weather obviously! The people very friendly and can speak English. Great value for money. The motorways are exceptional. Needed more time to explore the cultural delights of the country
Not impressed with: Don’t think there was anything that we did not like about Croatia!
Recommend: Have to say that we were disappointed with the restaurants in the harbour. But recommend the restaurants in Trogir. La Dalmatia was brilliant. For a great shopping experience in the "cool". The Mall in Split was brilliant!
Favourite villa moment: Favourite villa moments were discovering we had a tortoise in the garden, which we fed every day. Also the fig trees in the garden were overflowing with fruit. The pool was a godsend and a delight
Stayed July/August 2017
Nice house. Really lovely. We had a great time. Beautiful house and pool. People in the bars and restaurants also very friendly. Owner was always happy to help with anything. Could not have been more helpful. Allowed us in early. Very good service. Thanks very much.
Impressed with: Cheap and nice weather.
Not impressed with: No sand on the beaches
Recommend: We ate at each of the four restaurants in the village and all were nice.
Favourite villa moment: Sitting beside the pool in late afternoon relaxing and splashing around.Stayed May/June 2017
Booked because of Price / knowledge of Croatia
Directions by car were very good until the last 1/4 mile. Needs careful look at road signs, to make correct turns etc. (when you know, it's easy)but first time is not so !
Emailing owner is excellent as he responds quickly. However, trying to phone is not so easy. If guest do not have mobile phone or access to wi fi there could be a real problem.
A microwave oven is advisable. (the owner says he will see to that )
There is an outside kitchen which is good (no mention of it in details)
Impressed with: Clarity of sea water, historical sights & recent history...it's people.
Not impressed with: Some locals can be less responsive to visitors but they have undergone troublesome times. Give them time.
Recommend: Excellent position for historical sights. Split, Trogir and Sibenik Mastrinka. Restaurant has been overlooked by others I fear. The food is excellent the service is personal and family oriented. Wine is home grown and made and is exceptional.
Favourite villa moment: The peace and quiet and overlooking a large forest with distant views of the harbour.Stayed September 2016
Villa Comments: Microwave will be added for 2017
Fantastic location and fabulous villa. Kitchen could have had a few more items - maybe a few small welcome pack items like bin liners and olive oil and coffee filters but overall fantastic place and lovely owners.
Lovely people who really took care of us and gave us leaving gift which was very thoughtful.
Impressed with: Unspoilt, clean and crystal clear water
Not impressed with: Airport
Recommend: Lovely grill place in Vinisce with really fresh fish and lots of fab ice cream places
Favourite villa moment: Snorkelling in the bay, boat trips, catching an octopus and it escaping back into the sea, glass of wine with the fabulous view and sunsets
Stayed August 2016
The villa was fabulous & the views are amazing. Taking tea towels & oven gloves was essential, but otherwise the villa was well equipped and wifi was very quick & efficient. The directions need updating as there is now a roundabout coming out of the airport, so it was a bit confusing with existing directions! Lovely people couldn't fault them at all.
Impressed with: The history is very interesting and we loved the landscape & people.
Not impressed with:
Recommend: We loved Trogir, much better than Split and closer, great market daily and lovely restaurants within the walled town. Vinisce also has some good restaurants and is a lovely walk from the villa (one way probably enough!)
Favourite villa moment: Waking up and walking down to the jetty, diving off & swimming in the crystal clear water then going back to the villa to sit on the balcony for breakfast - bliss!
Stayed June 2015
Excellent. Would have been helpful to have few extra items in the kitchen: Oven gloves or cloth/mit for handling hot items in oven Tea towels/drying up cloths Box of matches. Would have been helpful to have few extra items in the kitchen: Oven gloves or cloth/mit for handling hot items in oven Tea towels/drying up cloths Box of matches
Impressed with:Beautiful clear, warm turquoise sea to swim in Lovely Venetian style architecture in some places Split & Trogir were lovely towns Friendly, welcoming locals Beautiful unspoilt views
Not impressed with: Poor beaches, lot of sea urchins Generally poor sea access - concrete piers at best
Recommend: One item that was missing was any bar/shop/restaurant in Ljubljeva We recommend Cupernica restaurant in Vinisce - great menu, tables right on the water & v friendly staff
Favourite villa moment: Swimming, both in the pool and the sea at the bottom of the well laid steps down from the houseStayed August 2013
It is a lovely villa - probably could do with a top up on kitchen equipment but nothing apart from that. I think you did a great job.
It would be helpful to mention that you need to allow ample time for getting on and off the island on changeover days/at peak times - because of the one narrow bridge and the volume of traffic. We didn't realise and nearly missed the check in desk on the way home.
We booked transfer taxis and boat hire through your recommended agent. Both were great.
Impressed with: The scenery and some of the architecture is lovely, the sea is warm and calm and the people were really welcoming.
Not impressed with: The wine left a bit to be desired sometimes, but apart from that there was nothing.
Recommend: Take the ferry to Trogir. It's a pretty place with great restaurants - ferries run all day and evening so you can go for dinner. Either hire a boat or take an organised trip to one or two of the islands. Great snorkelling and water ski-ing. The beach restaurants are fine for a casual supper.
Favourite villa moment: Sitting round the table outside with our friends and family enjoying a sunset drink and dinner.Stayed June 2017
An excellent experience all round
Impressed with: The sea
Favourite villa moment: The first meal which reassured us that we had chosen the right holiday and the final meal where we were made to feel so welcome
Stayed August/September 2016
Only positive comments on everything, excellent experience overall. Extremely hospital and a very good host and cook!
Impressed with: Friendly people beautiful country
Not impressed with: Couln't say.
Favourite villa moment: Breakfast, lunch and dinner!
Stayed August 2015
Excellent. The food was extraordinary. The owner of the villa is outstanding, in terms of attitude and service.
Stayed August 2012
Everything we wanted was very well catered for. Villa owner was on site and was full of useful information for activities and restaurants. Even organized a cleaner daily 😊
Impressed with: Clean, friendly and value for money.
Not impressed with: They do like to charge for everything!
Recommend: Boat hire from Split – Bit expensive as there was a lot of us but worth it for the day. All the local restaurants were very nice and friendly.
Favourite villa moment: Watching the sun set every evening with large G and T’s!Stayed July 2017
Fantastic position with great views from the balcony and easy access to the sea from garden. Nice location with good access to Trogir, Split and surrounding area. Water taxi nearby which takes you into Trogir. House is split into two apartments which can be rented separately or together. Recommend taking the whole house as middle/upper floors are the best.
Owner very helpful and on hand to deal with any queries. Would definitely recommend staying here.
Good website, comprehensive information on villas and general ease of use.
Impressed with: Some interesting places to visit and fantastic sights around the coast & islands.
Not impressed with: People can be sometimes a little abrupt.
Recommend: Water taxi into Trogir from nearby campsite (10min walk). Kn 50 return fare. Krkla National Park (about 1 hour away). Primosten very picturesque and worth visit/lunch
Favourite villa moment: Early morning swim plus breakfast on the balcony. Sea is tranquil and crystal clear first thing.
Stayed July/August 2017
Just wanted to thank you for a fabulous holiday in TG001 villa near Trogir
The villa was clean and modern with spectacular views of the sea from both balconies.
The sea is so clear there and we could reach it in minutes via the garden.
The area is quiet not overrun with tourists but an easy walk to the village and the boat taxi to Trogir
We hired a little boat from the village rental place and went exploring anchoring in a deserted bay for snorkelling
The caretakers were delightful. We had a problem with the fridge, drains in bathroom and Satellite tv and struggled to reach her by phone but once you got hold of her they came straight away to fix it.
Theres a new Studenac supermarket opening this weekend up the road behind the villa so that will be handy for your future guests
Also Baldo from the taxi firm Ivan Golez speaks great English and was really helpful he took us to Krka and waited all day to take us home bless him.
We did find he was not there to meet us from the plane but I rang Davorka and she sent him to get us- apparently he had arrived to get us at 11.30 in the morning instead of evening.
Also thankyou for the breakfast welcome pack and letting us stay till 7pm on Saturday which made our late flights much less stressful.
I would definitely travel with you again and recommend Croatian Villas to friends.
Croatian Villas comments Understand the shelves broke in the fridge and there was a plumbing issue in one of the showers, both of which were fixed once the caretakers were advised of the situation. Glad to hear you enjoyed your stay.

A lovely place. Caretaker was very helpful
Impressed with: Seawater and beaches very clean. Well organised and efficient
Not impressed with: Restaurants quite expensive
Favourite villa moment: Swimming in sea below the villa
Stayed September 2016
Fabulous villa listed. Absolutely as described if not better. The nicest villa we have ever stayed in. Great showers and air conditioning, super livable and loads of room for a family or even two families traveling together. Perhaps families with small toddlers would not care for the steps and lack of beach but for anyone with kids over six years old it is perfect. We cannot wait to come back!
Joseph the owner does not speak any English but he was so kind and helpful throughout our visit. He came by to, point out the outdoor shower and even brought over sweets one day. His daughter was here when we arrived to, help with getting us settled.
Perhaps an English version of a local handbook of where things are and how to use the oven. Really not needed but most rentals have one.
Recommend: A short 8 min walk down the way brings several very good restaurants, all with great prices and friendly service and cold local beer. A small market is only five min walk in the other direction. Do not ever use Trigor Dive Center for snorkeling or scuba. They are very unprepared, unprofessional, and it is obvious they are not customer oriented.
Favourite villa moment: Sitting on the terrace in the morning drinking coffee, sitting in the afternoon reading, sitting in the evening with a cold drink. Jumping into the Adriatic Sea a mere 20 meters from the villa and floating around with the family.
Stayed June 2016
Excellent property. Fantastically furnished for our use. Bit difficult to locate for taxi (and subsequent taxis) as quite an unusual approach - possibly a map? The agents were fabulous and the cleaner was lovely (she had had a poor experience the week before so I think we were quite welcome)
Might be worth stressing that the deposit is in Euros - I double checked with you so it was fine for us.
The holiday exceeded our expectations. The villa was far better than I expected, the welcome (and buffet) unexpected and very generous, I had missed that there was a cleaner - so excellent! The supplies were appropriate and more than I expected - for example I bought dishwasher tablets and there were some left. I think you probably under sell yourselves!
Impressed with: Water cleanliness.
Not impressed with: The people could be a little gruff
Recommend: The windsurfing and paddle board rental was ok and nearby. The Tommy supermarket was the best - but very busy in the afternoons and quite a walk so pick your time. The restaurants nearby are mixed (Leonardo best) but boat into Trogir gives loads of choice of excellent quality.TRS Konoba and Don Dino our favourites. The ice cream bars are all great.
Favourite villa moment: evening drinks and dining on the balcony overlooking the sea with a great sunsetStayed August 2017
Just a quick note to say thank you for arranging the Villa. It was great and we really enjoyed our stay. The service you provided was excellent. Communication was clear and quick, and you were very helpful and pleasant to deal with. Customer service seems to be declining these days, but you did an excellent job and it was refreshing to deal with someone so good at their job and willing to go above and beyond to get things done given the last minute nature of the booking
Stayed June 2016
Excellent property, in excellent condition - everything brand new in 2015. Elegantly and tastefully decorated and furnished, with plenty of space. Kitchen facilities and kitchen and dining equipment plentiful and all superb - good working aircon. 3 different eating areas dining room, patio terrace and balcony. Fantastic spacious pool with lots of comfortable pool terrace furniture. Well maintained grounds - with added value of pool table (as in shooting balls not water) and table tennis and large barbq area. Great location in quiet neat smart neighbourhood 1 minute from local beach and just a 15 minute pleasant waterfront walk to:- the main beach of the whole island plus local shops; bank atms; bars; cafes; nightlife; restaurants; and regular water taxis (running morning to midnight) to nearby historic Trogir. If one was being picky in an ideal world some would want a rental where the 15 min walk reduced to 5 mins to the local action but not a big deal, and otherwise this is pretty much the perfect holiday beach villa. Good security (building locks and safety deposit box). Beds all comfortable, all rooms had en-suite shower and bathrooms in excellent condition all worked - towels and bed-linen and mattresses good quality and very comfortable. Plenty of storage space.
Local property manager was very helpful, professional and welcoming - very responsive to all requests, well connected and informed for making related tour arrangements. Very quickly resolved couple minor problems same day reported . Just 30 mins from Split airport. Stacks to do in the area from R&R, soft adventure, culture, natural beauty, boat rides, snorkelling etc weather in August perfect blue sky sunny all day pleasing 28-32 hot temp dawn through dusk - odd evening 20 minute thunderstorm clears the air keeps things fresh . The overall area offers something for families, toddlers. young kids, couples, teens, those in their 20s through all the ages to retirement folks. Tip if you getting a transfer to anywhere for tour when leaving the island get a water taxi to Trogir for Okrug jetty (15 mins from Villa Avalon see comments above) and start transfer from there as always delays on bridge to get off island and you save a lot of time, hassle and money getting boat first to skip the bridge and more pleasant than the traffic jam. I am very well and regularly traveled worldwide over many years (business and leisure) and an ex-media professional (now latterly a travel professional myself so not automatically pre-disposed to giving glowing reviews and not easily pleased coming to all travel experiences with a 'crtical eye' ) and this property and resort rank very highly. I highly recommend - this is a top-notch rental you will not regret it if you book.Stay summer 2015
All perfect. Great property, Pool a bit small.
Impressed with: People, calmness, cleanliness, good weather, closeness to airport, great accommodation
Recommend: All local - Restaurant Renata was good.
Favourite villa moment: Getting all the family together and having a rental boat at the bottom of the garden.Stayed June 2017
Very satisfied with the whole process from our first conversation, when they (Authentic Villa Holidays) were very helpful.
Although it was no problem to us, I imagine that Ciovo is pretty well clogged with traffic in the high season and I feel that should have been mentioned by you. Disposal of rubbish was a bit of a problem and nothing provided for recycling.
Loved the garden area, great for BBQ's on the patio. Only saw caretaker on arrival, but she was easily accessible by 'phone. Very pleasant and helpful.
Impressed with: Beautiful scenery and National Parks. The people are friendly and helpful.
Not impressed with: A tendency to cater for mass tourism.
Recommend: Better restaurants are in Trogir. We enjoyed Toma.
Favourite villa moment: The initial view from the balcony upon arrival
Stayed September 2016
Excellent - Good services and offer
Favourite villa moment: The whole weekend
Stayed July 2016
Great location and view. A wonderful villa. The owner was very helpful and attentive to our needs.
The bathroom needs a deep cleaning & disinfection, pipes need to be replaced to get rid of the drain flies that are present.
Impressed with: The nice and clear water of the Adriatic shore.
Not impressed with: The traffic in Trogir / Okrug Gornji is crazy, in august we had to wait every time at least one hour to exit the tourist area by car. A lot of time wasted in the car because the road are very narrow (~4m) and both way traffic!
Recommend: Leonardo Restaurant, Rent a Boat from Marko.
Favourite villa moment: Every evening and morning in the balcony were memorable because of the great view.
Villa Comments: Confirm receipt of feedback including with the negative comment. Regret the guests have discovered such inconveniences. Of course, revision, cleaning and all corrective actions will be carried out for future guests. It was the first comment on this matter in period of renting
Stayed August 2015
We had the most fantastic holiday in idyllic beautiful setting. Would recommend. Caretaker was very kind and helpful when we arrived and throughout our stay. Some instructions leaflets on how to use apartment equipment and may be some maps and a guest book would have been nice.
Excellent from start to finish.
Impressed with: It's stunning everywhere you look is like a post card amazing.

Not impressed with: Sometimes the food was a bit old fashioned
Favourite villa moment: Waking up and going for a long swim to the little island opposite the house.
Stayed August 2015
Nous avons été très satisfaits de notre choix - il faut simplement faire attention avec les horaires de départ de l'avion de Dubrovnik qui nous a obligé de quitté l'îl de Korcula vendredi en fin daprès-midi déjà.... Peut-être un peu plus de détails quant à la localisation de la villa. Surveillant est un hôte remarquable et il a été très coopératif avec nous. C'était une vrai découverte !
Impressed with: La diversité du paysage-
Not impressed with: Peut-être la qualité relative des vins....
Recommend: Le Feral konoba à Lumbarda - Le Konoba-Zaratak à Brna et le Vidak Rest. à Split Par contre légère déception du Natura à Lumbarta... pourtant recommandé dans le Routard.
Favourite villa moment: Toute la semaine...Stayed August 2012
We had a lovely time and thought that the owners were very charming and friendly. (Liked) The clear sea. sunshine and lovely food and countryside.
Stayed August 2011
Property itself was lovely and suited our needs but the area in which it was located was a little run down, close to a rundown area of blocks of flats and lots of graffiti.
Owner was very helpful and allowed us to stay an extra 2 hours on check out day despite new holiday makers arriving the same day
Impressed with: Lovely friendly people and low cost of eating out
Not impressed with:
Recommend: Rented a private powerboat through Waterworld Croatia with Peter and had the most amazing days with him Would thoroughly recommend him.
Favourite villa moment: Powerboat with Waterworld Croatia based in Split
Stayed September 2015
Good-Excellent. The wifi stopped working day 2 which was somewhat annoying
Recommend: Boat trip to Trogir (as opposed to walking in the heat on the roads without side walks)
Favourite villa moment: Poolside with the kids
Stayed July 2015
Villa Comments: The problem with the WiFi was due to the internet provider. It was corrected within a day.
Good-Excellent. Garbage disposal was not that well organized or at least not communicated very well. And as a hint; I don't recommend leaving the garbage bags outside, even inside the property walls - the animals will find them...
Impressed with: The weather, the people (and the service culture), the sea and the beaches. And the villa was better than we expected - it really was like in the pictures! Usually the pictures make them look better.
Not impressed with: There really isn't anything, or them we just didn't come by any "bad" things.
Recommend: T.R.S. restaurant (in Trogir) was very nice. - Bura Line between Trogir and Split was handy. - Trip by rented cars to Krka
Favourite villa moment: The pool was very nice, especially for the children, although they were pretty young. - You were able to organize a chef and it was great! I can highly recommend him (Stanko Kolic) for others staying in the villa. But you should also know, that the cost was like three times more what we expected, but then again, so was the quality of the food. He charged 200€ for the service (we agreed 150€, but he said that he needed a helper, so it was 50€ more) and he charged the food by person and by course. Meaning, that he also had quite a profit in the food as well, and not just for the service. Before hand we thought he would just bring the receipt from the groceries that we would pay for him + the 200€ service. In the end the total cost was 750 for nine people... He said that the fish we had was very expensive. But as I said, the dishes were great and so we also booked him for another night - this time I negotiated the price before. But although I was pretty clear on the expense: "The total cost of the service and the food should not be more than 400€. Can we agree on this?" -> "Yes". Well, the bill for the other dinner (for ten people) was 660€... We didn't want to start a fight about it (or even mention the issue for him), not least of all because there was a small language wall, but also because we didn't want to ruin our own holiday mood. The cost it self wasn't the problem, it was more a matter of principle. Well, long story short. The chef was great, but expensive.Stayed June 2013
Booked 2 property (TG005 and BC021) Both excellent thanks. The owners were very accommodating in both Villas. More info on ferries to Brac at the end of the holiday in order to get our flight out of Split . We managed to get on the first ferry at 5 am in order to catch our flight at 11:00 .
Cheaper than James Villas
Impressed with: Too much to list -all good
Not impressed with: Nothing
Recommend: Too many to list
Favourite villa moment: All of it , we will use you again . We loved Croatia !!Stayed August 2017
We had a fantastic holiday and the location was amazing. Jade was very helpful in suggesting options when I e-mailed with my criteria (dates, guests, budget, etc). The one thing that we did not receive were recommendations of things to do in the area, for example you could give suggestions of things to see or places to go within a 1 hour radius. There was also very little help in actually finding the villa. There was a small hand draw map which showed the villas location once you had found Seget Vranjica, but no directions on how to get to the village. We were navigating our way down from Rijeka airport and we did not have a sat nav and we had struggled to buy a Croatian road map both on online before we went and once in Croatia. We enjoyed the challenge and found it eventually but not without taking a few wrong turns and ending up in Trogir and then over shooting the other side before we worked it out. I just think some directions from the different airports as to even which motorways to take would be helpful.
The apartment was great and the location was spectacular. The only issue we had was that there was no oven, just 2 hobs and a microwave so we were unable to cook meals ourselves.
Impressed with: The scenery.
Not impressed with: Nothing disappointed us, apart from the very limited signage to Rijeka airport from E65/8 road.
Recommend: Ribar restaurant just on the waterfront was wonderful, we ate there 4 times in a week!! Rogoznica was 20 minutes’ drive away and a lovely town with lots of big yachts! Further up the coast was the picturesque town of Primosten, well worth a visit. The Lakes National Park in the north East is well worth a visit, although you can’t just walk or drive around to see it, you have to park and pay 15 euros to get inside to see any lakes. There are lots of different walking routes around the park ranging from 1 hour to 6 hours so you can pop in for an afternoon or spend a whole day there
Favourite villa moment: The stunning view every day, we never tired of it and we couldn't believe how lucky we were with the location.Stayed September 2013
An absolutely amazing view and location.
Stayed September 2010
It was a wonderful place to stay - the location was just perfect with the sea just outside our door and the village itself was lovely. It was very near to Trogir which was gorgeous. Owners were exceptionally helpful and welcoming - it was like going to stay with family.
Impressed with: The scenery.
Not impressed with: It was more expensive than I thought it would be.
Recommend: Obviously Krka waterfalls, Trogir, Split, Cetina gorge. Local beer cheap and very drinkable!
Favourite villa moment: Getting up in the morning and seeing the sea outside, going down and jumping in before breakfast.Stayed July 2013
It was extremely hot at night. The air conditioning was only in the lounge and we would have benefitted from a fan in each bedroom. But the advantages definitely outweighed the disadvantages and we would very much like to go there again.
The owners were delightful; they made us very welcome, even though we arrived late due to flight delays. They welcomed us with beer and one day even brought us food.
Impressed with: The beauty, the cleanliness and the roads.
Recommend: Krka National park is beautiful. The wooden walkways are well maintained and the waterfalls into a lake where you can swim were fantastic. Beware of the underwater rocks though; it is quite tricky traversing them to get to the deeper water. Trogir is a beautiful harbour where you can eat and watch the world go by. St Dominik's restaurant was fab.
Favourite villa moment: Looking at the view from the balcony each morning. Glorious. Plus being able to jump into the crystal clear water and cool off.Stayed July 2013
Perfect location - very clean - unfortunately no air conditioning in main bedroom but we got by.
The owners of the property went beyond the normal perimeters of looking after us - I have never met such a lovely couple who went all out to make our stay as enjoyable as possible and more. They were happy to give their all and made our holidays one of our best. Thank you.
Impressed with: Value for money Cleanliness Friendly people The masses have not got there yet.
Recommend: Ribar bar in Seget good quality and value for money. Mountain Bike hire in Trogir located near the wooden bridge - very helpful and can deliver bikes to the apartment.
Favourite villa moment: The location.Stayed July 2013
We have just returned from our holiday in Croatia where we stayed in two of the properties handled by you.
Both places we stayed were really good but particularly the one in Seget Vranjica where we spent the first week. The apartment was absolutely fantastic with excellent terraces to front and side, in a superb location. The owners were kind and helpful and made the whole experience perfect. We just wish we had stayed there longer.
When you go self-catering you always take a bit of a chance on the quality of accommodation. On this occasion it was just brilliant.

It is comfortable, has character, beautiful views and immediate access to the sea. A folder with local information and helpful tips about the property would have been useful. We found owner very friendly and kind. It helped that we spoke German and Italian as she explained she does not speak much English.
Impressed with: The beauty of the coast and the friendliness of the people.
Not impressed with: The outskirts of the towns and the utilitarian buildings.
Recommend: The Ribar in Seget Vranjika is excellent - good value for money, lovely food including very good grilled fish. Also friendly and relaxed. In Trogir, which is a fascinating old town, we liked the restaurant Vranjaka. Visiting the Krka National Park is worth doing, and swimming under the waterfall! if possible, eat beforehand as the restaurant there is rather busy and uninspiring. Split and the Diocletian Palace is definitely worth a visit. We had a lovely meal there at Kod Joze.
Favourite villa moment: One of many favourite villa moments was getting up in the morning and going down for a swim before breakfast.

A wonderful villa conveniently located in Maslinca in Solta. We enjoyed the ferry trips to Split but also enjoyed the peace and relaxing time on Solta.
Very convenient location close to Maslinca harbour and beach. Owner very helpful and very keen to ensure that we were happy with everything in the villa. He also arranged a boat trip for us.
Impressed with: Nice climate clear blue sea friendly people
Not impressed with: Nothing. - I liked Croatia
Recommend: The Diocletian Palace in Split was very interesting. We also took a boat trip to Hvar, the blue lagoon and Bol beach. Trogir was also very picturesque. We liked the bars and restaurants on the port at Maslinca.
Favourite villa moment: BBQ on the terrace followed by walking down to the harbour for drinks in the harbour side barsStayed June 2017
This is a lovely property pleasantly and peacefully situated above the resort a few minutes’ walk away. There are several restaurants in Maslinica we tried a few, the stand out being Sakajet, which gave superb service, some great fish and, unprompted, a tray of sweets to celebrate my wife's birthday, free of charge.
Impressed with: I have been several times. The people, the food, the climate, the sea, you could call me a fan.
Not impressed with:
Recommend: We really enjoyed our special meal at Sakajet.
Favourite villa moment: Finding the pool so inviting in mid-June! Enjoying a welcome beer with our extremely helpful and generous perfect host.
