Villa Lilla Croatia
Holiday Home Rental Description
This beautiful, traditional style villa located in the picturesque village of Pridaga near Zadar, simply oozes warmth and cosy charm. Classically designed, but completely modern and newly refurbished throughout, Villa Lilla features two double bedrooms, as well as an extra sofa bed, meaning it can accommodate up to five guests.
The interior of the villa is beautifully decorated in fresh white, with tones of cream and fawn, and sprays of beautiful brickwork in a nod to the property’s traditional style. The living/dining area is cosy yet bright, with squashy sofas, and a sturdy, contemporary style dining table that seats up to 4 guests. The kitchen is small but well-equipped, with plenty of food prep space, an oven and hob, dishwasher, microwave, coffee machine, and a large fridge. The bedrooms are light and airy, with classic white bed frames and wardrobes, and there is a bright, fresh family bathroom with shower. Villa Lilla is fully air conditioned for your comfort, and guests can enjoy satellite TV and WiFi during their stay – making it a real home from home.
When you step outside you’ll see that the private, fenced garden is just as neat and well-maintained as inside, with a bbq station and beautiful covered dining area, where you’re sure to enjoy many an alfresco meal, morning coffee, or evening cocktail. There’s also a cosy outdoor seating area – perfect for relaxing in the shade with a good book or glass of wine, as well as sun loungers and parasols by the pool.
Villa Lilla is located in the small town of Pridraga, primarily used as a spot to take a quick breather and enjoy a little peace and quiet – and perhaps a light snack – before heading off to the more popular city destinations of Zadar or Split.
In Split you’ll find the famous Bacvice Beach – popular thanks to its long sandy shallows and its close proximity to the city centre, where you can grab a beverage or do a spot of shopping. Another fascinating attraction to visit if you’re in the area is St. Domnius Cathedral, the oldest Catholic cathedral in the world, completed in the 7th century AD. For the best views of the city visitors will want to climb the Bell Tower and drink in the stunning panoramic views.
If you’re starting to think you might have seen this city somewhere before, you’re not mistaken – Split is a favourite destination for Game of Thrones fans, where you’ll recognise several famous locations from the popular TV show. Official tours are available – although you’ll want to book in early to avoid the crowds.This buzzing and exuberant city blends modern and traditional styles, and is the perfect place to visit if you want some contrast to the sleepier towns and villages along the Dalmatian Coast. Inside the impressive Roman monument of Diocletian’s Palace you’ll find dozens of bars, restaurants, and shops to visit, and down at the bustling waterfront you will find fresh seafood served daily.
Zadar, another popular tourist spot, is another must-see, if only for the impressive Sea Organ and Greeting To The Sun installations. Designed by Nikola Basic in 2005, the Sea Organ features 35 organ pipes which emit otherworldly tones that are determined by the size and frequency of the waves. The ‘Greeting To The Sun’ installation features 300 multi-layered glass plates set in a circle and is also synchronised with the waves. After dark you’ll be treated to a beautiful light show, as solar modules spring into life at sunset, and simulate our solar system. It really is a sight to behold.
