About this property

Villa By The Sea w/ breathtaking views! Ideally located between Split & Trogir!

Villa Oleandra, the perfect jumping-off point to the beautiful Croatian islands, is ideally situated between UNESCO-protected Split and Trogir.

This unique, spacious, architectural gem has panoramic views of the Adriatic Sea, the charming seven Kastela towns, Split, and the island of Ciovo, with a stone stairway leading to the pebble beach where you can sunbathe, swim, and sail.

Surrounded by its own gardens of oleander, lavender, rosemary, fig and olive trees, this luxurious yet minimalist 3-bedroom villa is truly a retreat for those looking to get away from it all.

The house is behind its own private gate with a large car port. The covered, wraparound terrace is ideal for al fresco dining, or just relaxing and enjoying the view. There's a large living/dining room with cathedral ceilings and a fireplace, as well as a fully-equipped, modern kitchen with Bosch appliances: microwave, convection oven, tea kettle, espresso coffee maker, American coffee maker, built-in refrigerator and freezer. Free WiFi, A/C units in all the bedrooms and common living areas.

On the main floor is the master bedroom with a king-size bed and large built-in closet with a gorgeous adjoining master bathroom. Also on the main floor is a second bedroom with a king-size bed, more closet space, and a full bathroom.

On the lower level is a third bedroom with a king-size bed, plenty of closet space, and a crib. The sitting area on the same level has a sofa bed. There's also a treadmill and yoga mats for use. The laundry room (washer/dryer, laundry detergent provided) is also located on this level.

Feel like barbecuing? There's a high end gas grill (Fire Magic) to enjoy, or if you prefer wood-burning, there's that as well! Lovely, practical area where you can prepare your meals.

On your arrival, you will be welcomed by your host. He can assist with organizing any excursions and/or transportation if you desire.
This villa's location is at the end of a quiet road. About 200 meters away are a couple little bar cafes, with another beach and a small harbor/fishing area.

Some recommended visits from Villa Oleandra are: Primosten (33km), Krka National Park (50 km), Kornati National Park (Archipelago), Paklenica Park (130km - a paradise for climbers and hikers), Solin/Salona (15 km), Klis (34 km) with its 7th century fortress, and Medugorje (150 km) Catholic pilgrimage. Of course, Split, Trogir, and the 7 Kastela towns are highly recommended.

Wonderful, relaxing vacation in Dalmatia
I spent three weeks at this fantastic villa overlooking the sea near Split. The house has an impressive architecture with soaring ceilings and large windows to take advantage of the sea views. Everything is modern and clean with a fully equipped kitchen. The beach is just steps away so you can go for a swim anytime you desire. And then you can relax on one of the lounge chairs looking out at the sea, islands and Split in the distance. There is plenty to do in the area including visits to Split, the Roman ruins in Solin, charming Trogir and the seven towns of Kaštela. The owner, Nada, and the local manager were very responsive and helpful. I highly recommend this villa!

Amazing house, beautiful area, gorgeous view!!
Having just returned from a three week European vacation, my travelling companions and I unanimously agreed this Villa by the Sea was by far our favorite and hated having to leave. Being located between Split and Trogir, it was easy access to almost everything. Being from the US, it had all the modern conveniences we enjoy normally, including screens on the windows which most homes in Europe may not have. Mosquitos can be a problem and in order to enjoy the sounds of the sea and the fresh air without being targeted by those pesky critters, the screens were especially appreciated. The outdoor areas were very comfortable and enjoying a glass of wine and hors d'oeuvres under the overhang of the beautifully tiled porch became a daily coveted activity. The fully equipped kitchen was certainly an unexpected delight with almost every utensil and appliance needed to cook a gourmet meal, and most appreciated was the espresso machine which was put to good use every morning. Sometimes it was a bit challenging to figure out the appliances since buttons and settings were in Croatian but eventually we became adept at learning the basics, accept for the clothes dryer (which is an anomaly in Europe) as we couldn't get it to really dry the clothes. Perhaps it was our not understanding the workings of the dryer so we gave up and hung them outside to dry in the sea breezes. The beds and linens were high quality and comfortable and much appreciated after having spent some prior days in Italy with extremely hard mattresses. We were also grateful for the wonderful showers and ample hot water. This is an amazing home and we would love to come back if we get back to the area again. I can't imagine anyone being disappointed when staying here!! The only issue we had was finding the house from the directions given even with GPS and Google maps. Perhaps a more detailed map would help. Thank you, Nada, for sharing your beautiful home!!

Very nice and relaxing place
We loved this villa very much, first of all right next to the sea, less people on the beach than anywhere, all the amenities are provided, we didn't need to buy anything extra just food. The villa is in a very good condition, clean and spacious, each room has air conditioner which was very important for us.

Best vacation.
I'm posting this review a year late. As the anniversary of my vacation here approaches, I can easily say this was the best vacation I ever took, and I'm not a person who uses superlatives lightly. Our 3 year old daughter (was 2 at the time of our visit) constantly asks to go back to the house by the sea. The pictures of the view do not do it justice. The color of the Adriatic is bright blue matching the blue skies, and the green of the garden and the mountains in the background provide such a stunning contrast. Thanks to the easy access to a secluded beach, I had relaxing, quiet mornings (before my family joined me) wading in the water and taking in the view of Split just after sunrise. I do recommend any visitors bring water shoes/sandals if you have more sensitive feet, even though there are sandy areas depending on the tide. I should note that our daughter had no issue with the pebble beach and in fact absolutely loved it. There are no strong tides or big waves either which made the whole experience feel safe, calm, and very family friendly including for small children. The owner and manager were fantastic to deal with. As other reviewers have noted, the home was extremely well maintained, clean, and comfortable. The airport and hydroplane proximity offered convenience while not sacrificing quietude and calm. Split and Trogir were beautiful places to explore the rare times we decided to leave the home. We hope to be back very soon!

Why they chose this property

The villa has one of the best locations on the Dalmatian coast, conveniently situated between the UNESCO Heritage sites of Split and Trogir (both easily accessible by car or bus). It is perfect for hosting events, family vacations, and exploring the local culture and sites. The location on the water offers unparalleled views of Split as well as a fantastic night sky for stargazing enthusiasts.

There are many convenient options to explore the labyrinth of islands, particularly the hydroplane which is within reasonable walking distance from the villa. Schedules run more frequently in the summer months.

The UNESCO designated city of Split is the largest on the Adriatic coast and retains thousands of years of several cultural influences. Gothic cathedrals and Renaissance palaces line the seafront which is the best jumping off point to the neighboring islands.

What makes this property unique

There are two supermarkets only 5-7 minutes away (driving), Kaufland and Lidl. Split airport is conveniently close, meaning you will reach your destination quickly and without much hassle. Despite the proximity to the airport, it is a quiet haven since the flight path is never overhead. Furthermore, the villa is located directly on the beach, so if you are seeking a beach-side retreat with easy access, this is a perfect choice for you. The many spaces of our home afford plenty of options for a private time out. Finally, no vacation can be restful without a good night of sleep...which is why we make a point of having quality king-size mattresses in all 3 quiet bedrooms.
