Beachy Sunset

Beachy Sunset: Dalmatia - Dubrovnik

Sitting between the luxury hotels and beachfront cocktail bars of Lapad, this gorgeous villa is just outside Dubrovnik. You’re 500 metres from one of Croatia’s best beaches –Sunset Beach – and it’s a twenty walk (or five-minute drive) to Gruz Harbour where boats leave for the idyllic islands on day trips and an open-air market sells fresh local produce. Or, head into the beguiling Old Town to sample myriad restaurants in ancient, narrow streets – it’s less than a ten-minute drive away.

Days at the villa can be spent lounging poolside, and plunging into the turquoise water when the heat becomes too much. Perhaps spend the evening in the integrated hot tub. The terrace has plenty of options for lounging, and there’s shaded dining set up too, with a full outdoor kitchen ready to go. Inside, choose between the sunny conservatory-style sitting room or the big lounge in nautical blue with tufted velvet armchairs. This space opens up to the dining room, with its banquet-sized table. Upstairs you’ll find the bedroom, each a spacious spot with its own sense of character.
