Villa Edvige Croatia
Holiday Home Rental Description
Villa Edvige is luxurious, swanky and offers a slightly unusual set up of two apartments, both with sensational living spaces and kitchens, sharing delightful outside space overlooking the wonderful town of Makarska and the glistening sea. In total, there are 5 beautifully finished bedrooms sleeping 9 guests in luxurious comfort.
From its fabulous hillside position under the majestic Biokovo Mountains, the villa boasts the most breathtaking sunset views towards the town and coastline. Villa Edvige is just 700m from the Makarska centre and its restaurants and shops and only 1km from the beach. Guests will enjoy the tranquillity and beautiful natural surroundings of the villa yet can wander into the town for gourmet dining, shopping and fabulous beach days. You may also want to take a boat trip over to one of the islands from the harbour.
Interior designers have worked their magic in this stylish villa. Both apartments enjoy contemporary designs, and dazzling white interiors with lovely vibrant colour pops throughout. Each apartment is roughly the same size of 90 sqm.
The ground floor apartment enjoys a spacious, contemporary living space with gorgeous vivid blue sofas, chairs, and super shiny floors. A few steps up, take you to the sleek, well-equipped kitchen and dining area, again with the same vivid blue colour pops. You will find excellent appliances, including a filter coffee machine and a Dolce Gusto coffee maker in the dazzling white kitchen. The beautiful family bathroom includes a washing machine as well as an outstanding shower. There are two striking bedrooms, one with a kingsize bed and beautiful views to the sea and the pool area and the second, in striking black, grey and white, with a double bed and ensuite shower room. This bedroom enjoys views and access to the garden with its ancient olive trees. Doors open to the pool terrace, the atmospheric alfresco dining area and the outdoor covered staircase to the first-floor apartment.
Equally stunning, the upper apartment offers a stylish and comfortable living area with grey, and sunshine yellow colour pops against dazzling white walls. Double doors open to a balcony, and the sofa is perfectly positioned to enjoy the spectacular vistas. The shiny white kitchen enjoys a black splashback mirroring the white dining table and trendy black dining chairs. This apartment boasts 3 gorgeous bedrooms, one with a double bed and ensuite shower room, another with a queen bed for one guest with beautiful views and the last with a kingsize bed and pool views. The family bathroom definitely has the wow factor with its black and dalmatian effect tiles.
Outside, your holiday group will share an outstanding terrace, pool and garden. The 32 sqm pool looks lovely when lit up at night and is surrounded by loungers and a shower. Again in black and white, the lounge corner enjoys sensational views and is the perfect place for pre-dinner drinks. The sunsets from here are incredible. There is also a delightful covered alfresco dining area with a barbecue and surrounded by ancient olive trees. From the alfresco dining area, you can walk directly into the ground floor living space. The Makarska Riviera looks beautiful lit up at night. This villa makes the most of its stunning hillside position, where you will enjoy the twinkling lights in the distance.
Villa Edvige is located on the hillside just above the centre of Makarska. It enjoys amazing views yet is just 700m from the centre and 1km from the beach. Makarska is built around a deep, sheltered bay and backed by the dramatic rocky heights of Mount Biokovo. Makarska town is excellent for nightlife and gourmet restaurants. Some typical dishes are the delicious Bikovo cheese and ‘Kastradina’ which is a stew made with dried and smoked lamb, mutton or goat meat.
The town boasts a fabulous, palm lined promenade with cosmopolitan cafes, bars and unique boutiques and deluxe yachts in the harbour. You can take boat trips to the magical Zlatni Rat beach in Bol on Brac Island and Jelsa on Hvar. The delightful main square of Makarska Town is overlooked by the Baroque Church of St Mark and several elegant palazzi built by wealthy local merchants. The square is full of open-air restaurants and cafes and the daily market behind the church sells fresh local produce.
The stunning Makarska Riviera stretches between Brela and Gradac. It boasts incredible beaches, fragrant pine forests, glistening turquoise sea and lovely quiet bays. Baska Voda is a small charming village 9km north of Makarska and just south of Brela. Once a humble fishing village, Baska Voda’s beaches, pine woods and lovely setting have made it very popular for seaside tourism.
The magnificent Biokovo Mountain is incredible for hiking where you will enjoy the most fantastic views of Croatia’s coastline and islands. There is a stunning contemporary bridge with a glass bottom where you can take the most incredible photographs. The Biokovo Nature Park has stunning scenery, wild horses and goats, the remains of old settlements, alpine plants, forests and wild flowers.
Imotski is a small town on the northern side of the Biokovo massif in the Dalmation hinterland. The Imotski Lakes are a natural attraction very popular with tourists. The Red Lake is the deepest lake in Europe and the Blue Lake is a favourite bathing spot in the area. Its unique blue colour is spectacular.
