Just twenty metres from the white sands of Golden Cape, this beautiful villa sits on the island of Brač – beloved for its windsurfing scene, wraparound beach, and boat trips to Split. Behind black iron gates, you'll be greeted with a traditional exterior design of stone walls and terracotta roof tiles. Start your day in a mosaic-themed bedroom, before sauntering into the bright living space. Enjoy your Croatian breakfast at the indoor dining table, or step out onto your sunny patio and eat alfresco. Here, you'll find your secluded swimming pool, hugged by sun loungers – the perfect place to spend lazy mornings at home. Later, why don't you take the bikes along one of the local cycling trails? Only half a mile away from Bol, there you'll see the strange Dragon’s Cave and a buzzing atmosphere for travellers. When you come back, fire up the barbecue and grill srdele na žaru. Sit under the gazebo and share stories until sunset – all while sipping a glass of Pošip.
