We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful house in a charming Croatian village. The property is spacious both indoors and outdoors, with everything you could possibly need for a relaxing holiday. The swimming pool is large and perfect for enjoying the breathtaking views that surround the house. The location is peaceful and quiet, yet only around 30 minutes from the lively Makarska Riviera. The hosts were extremely welcoming, always quick to respond and very easy to communicate with, which made our stay even more enjoyable.Marijana has been very helpful with any questions we had and suggestions for places to go and see. And we had an amazing opportunity to taste her lovely husband' s homemade wines.We highly recommend this place for everyone who wants to experience peaceful holidays yet not far from the fantastic Croatian beaches and towns.Gosia

This house is tucked away nicely in the hills of Zmijavci with incredible views through the valley, roughly about 1h20 drive from Split and the airport.The house is well-presented and everything is as described and works as it should.The pool is not heated but is the perfect temperature in the summer. It's also highly recommended for babies/toddlers as the steps area leading into the pool is like a mini-pool suitable for non-swimming children.Location wise, there are some nice small places to get food and drink in Zmijavci but there are some more up market places nearby in Imotski.Marijana as a host was incredible helpful and accommodating, buying us groceries for the first couple of days as we arrived late on Saturday and Sunday was a public holiday. She even provided us with a screwdriver set when we were trying to put batteries into one of the kids toys! She was very quick to respond to any query I sent to her.Overall, this is the perfect villa for a Croatian get away, we hardly left the villa other than to eat because we enjoyed it so much. Thanks Marijana!

The pictures do not do the villa justice, the private grounds and gardens are beautiful surrounding a large swimming pool which has lighting around the garden and mood changing pool lighting which made evening swimming a must. Inside the villa is roomy with lots of charming character and well equipped with everything we needed, there is also a hidden snug below the garage which was cool and comfortable and a great escape. 2 of the bedrooms had air conditioning which was much needed as the weather was late 30s. The other bedrooms all had fans.
The hosts were wonderful and friendly and nothing was too much trouble for them and only a call away if we needed anything.
They provided lots of local information and places of interest that helped us on our stay, with added bonus of homemade wine and beers left in the fridge on our arrival. The hosts even provided some pool inflatables which meant the kids could jump straight in and enjoy the pool shortly after we arrived.
The villa definitely had the wow factor and made our wonderful memories for our family.
We chose the villa as it was located between Split and Dubrovnik with easy access to Imotski which had good local amenities and the Blue Lake.
Highly recommend this villa and hosts.

Fantastic villa! Very spacious, we were a group of seven and plenty of room for all. Amenities were brilliant, anything you could think you need is provided for. The hosts are very welcoming and eager to make the stay as fun as possible and they did. They took great care of us and made some great recommendations on where to go and what to do. Cannot wait to get back. Highly recommended!!!
