Holiday home Kastela Village

Het zwembad en buiten gedeelte

Area was cleaned up every second day.

The pool area is beautiful. The pool is a good size, there are good sun loungers, parasols, shower and covered table / benches area. However, the pool is not for very young children. The pool area is behind the house, so you do not notice the neighbors. The house is large, well furnished and very clean. Nothing is missing. There are also, for example, both dishwashing liquid and washing powder / tabs. The hosts are incredibly sweet and hospitable - for example, some ham / cheese / bread was bought for us on arrival, and they also invited us to dinner one evening. The hosts were easy to communicate with on WhatsApp. The shopping opportunities are good - there are three large supermarkets 10-15 minutes walk from the house. We did not have a car. Used taxi for transport to eg Split or Trogir. An Uber taxi (which is clearly the cheapest taxi) costs between 13 to17 Euros to Split.

The house is secluded and it is a bit difficult to get around if you do not have a car. The house and the immediate surroundings are beautiful, but the surrounding area does not have much to offer and there is far to most things. The buses in the area are cheap, but are very packed and hot in high season.

The pool zone was excellent for relaxing, evening dinners, breakfast in the shade and cooling off in the heat. The house had everything we needed. Kitchen was fully furbished, the extra kitchen zone by the pool was great. Playing foosball with the kids, plenty of chairs to lounge by the pool and washing off in the outside shower were nice extras that made things easier. In the evening we could choose to watch something on TV from the hundreds of channels available. The hosts were very polite and helpful and had prepared a light snack for us on arrival and supplied some basics for the first day.

The only complaint was the pillows on the beds. They were quite big and not really suited for the kids and took some getting used to for us adults as well. A choice of pillow for different kinds of sleepers would be nice. Also an extra hook or two for damp towels in the bathrooms would help.
