Villa Daneila Croatia

Villa Daneila casts an impressive silhouette, blending innovative design, architecturally innovative structures and cutting-edge interiors, with quality of finishes just a short distance to the beautiful coast at Crikvenica, Kvarner Bay.
This linear home is crafted with an avant-garde blend of concrete, stone and glass in steely, industrial greys, offset by sculpted gardens set across angular layers of modernist concrete contrasting with fragrant trees. Set across two storeys, it offers flawless living spaces for eight guests, across four bedrooms and four bathrooms, appealing to the design-conscious traveller. Complete with added indulgences, such as a bubbling jacuzzi and restorative sauna, this home doesn’t miss a trick when it comes to meeting guests’ needs.
Outdoor living has been designed to be an achingly cool affair, with a modern pergola softened by billowing curtains, the jacuzzi can be enjoyed with surrounding views, an elegant dining terrace and pool with infinity edge, seemingly merging with the sea. Meals under the balmy evening air, as the outdoors are illuminated will be atmospheric, while there is an effortless indoor-outdoor interplay thanks to the floor-to-ceiling glass and continuity of living spaces. Breakfast with sea views after a refreshing morning swim will hit the right note, or drinks on the balcony as the sun softens over the bay. Or, envisage a glass of local wine from the comfort of the jacuzzi. The pool is framed by a sleek deck furnished with lavish day beds and loungers, while there is a fitness area also – a space designed for both wellness and holiday excess.
The magnificently proportioned living space at Villa Daneila is a statement-making place, set across a split level with mezzanine, this place smacks of designer panache and a love of interiors. With marble surfaces, glitteringly opulent lighting, timber and steel exposed staircase and leather recliners, guests would be forgiven for thinking they’ve just stepped into a style magazine.
A state-of-the-art kitchen sets the scene for lively group time, while black and white photo-art lends a note of arty verve, along with four seductively finished bedrooms, restorative, tranquil and oh-so-stylish.
Hotel-grade quality with a personal and home-like touch elevated with a rock-and-roll edge, Villa Daneila is a one-of-a-kind type of place.Villa Daneila is just two kilometres from the centre of Crikenvica, set on the Adriatic coast and considered one of its jewels – where the sea and the green plains of the Vinodol valley meet.
Crikvenica has a host of seasonal events, including the traditional Fishermen’s Week (one of the oldest festivals in Crikvenica). St Anthony’s church is a tranquil visiting place, and the Russian Orthodox church has an immense 35m high belfry. Crikvenica Town Museum houses local artefacts within an attractive and well-organised space is worth a visit, as is the Aquarium which is home to over 150 species.
The “love road” is a beautiful hike past an old fort, with the full path being a 3-hour long hiking trail in stunningly unspoilt nature.
The coastal stretch around Crikvenica is ideal for watersports, from diving to snorkelling, while boat trips to the nearby islands make for a fun-filled day trip.
The Plitvice Lakes National Park is one of Croatia’s finest national parks, offering 16 spectacular lakes connected by stunning waterfalls and cascades. Visitors will enjoy this unique oasis of natural beauty by walking along the paths and wooden bridges or taking a tour by small train and boat.
