Very friendly host Thoroughly enjoyed our week in this beautiful villa. It has everything you would need. Location is great - around 30 minute walk or 5 minute drive down into Stari Grad which was our favourite town on the island. The host Zarko was very friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay here again. ##### Josh H.

Zarko , der sehr nette Vermieter hat uns freundlich empfangen. Gekühlte Getränke und ein kleiner Snack standen bereit ! Das Haus ist gemütlich eingerichtet und es ist sehr ruhig gelegen ! Eine einsame Bucht c.a. 1 km mit dem Auto entfernt ! 2 km und man ist in Stari Grad am Hafen, in der Altstadt mit kleinen Gassen und schönen Restaurants! Sucht man Ruhe, aber auch die Möglichkeit , um zu shoppen oder nett essen zu gehen , so ist man hier genau richtig ! Der Studenac Supermarkt ist sehr gut sortiert ! Möchte man mehr Auswahl , dann ist der Plodine Supermarkt in Jelsa zu empfehlen ! Wir empfehlen das Haus uneingeschränkt weiter👍 Es ist zu erwähnen, das es in diesem Haus keinen TV gibt , was wir bei der Buchung nicht erlesen hatten. Aber unseren Kindern und uns hat dies überhaupt nicht gestört ! Wir haben nichts vermisst , an diesem wunderbaren Ort ! ##### Melanie L.

Beautiful secluded area with a lovely terrace and a nice pool. We missed a fan in the livingroom and an additional sofa. But thats it, everything else was perfect. :) Stari Grad close by is such a lovely place. And go visit Vaiana Beach Club a Bay also very close by. ##### Marie V.

It was a good base to explore the many beautiful harbours and beaches on the island of Hvar, whilst being in a secluded, rural spot to get away from the crowds and enjoy the local fauna and flora. The property had everything we needed and the air con in the bedrooms was much appreciated! You will need a car to get to get around. Stari Grad is just 5 mins away and is a very nice small harbour with plenty of good places to eat. ##### Luc B. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Steve T. 6 Jul 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Blissful If you want peace and tranquillity, this is the perfect Villa. The Villa is extremely well equipped. The Bedrooms both have air conditioning and superb bathrooms, the location is amazing. The Sunsets from the Balcony are something to behold. Starri Grad was a 5 minute drive away and has a really good vibe with plenty of good Restaurants, very chilled. Zarko our host was always on hand and really helpful, such a friendly Guy. ##### Steve T.

It is very comfortable, modern, spotless and the two double bedrooms have magnificent views. Both ensuite bathrooms have lovely showers and the beds are new and confortable. The kitchen is very well equipped and the laundry is a real bonus. The swimming pool and outside space with table and chairs as well as loungers is fantastic and beautifully lit at night. The owner of the property is charming and helpful and has thought of everything from hairdyers to citronella candles. The nearby town of Stari Grad is lovely for an evening walk and ice cream and there are some good restaurants also as well as a supermarket. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend the property to anyone looking for a beautiful house in a peaceful setting. ##### Elisabeth D. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Willi R. 3 Jul 2025 ##### Willi R.
