Villa Kneza Croatia
Holiday Home Rental Description
Located on the northern coast of Korčula, in the pretty village of Prigradica, Villa Kneza offers a blend of modern and classic Mediterranean style. This 3-bedroom villa enjoys a spectacular sea view, looking out towards the neighbouring island of Hvar, and provides a private outdoor pool and a number of terrace areas.
You will wake to gorgeous clear blue seas at Villa Kneza, with upper-level balconies providing a great vantage point accessible from all the bedrooms. The villa has a lovely pool terrace on the lower level too, where there is plenty of seating and sun loungers near the 24 sq m swimming pool. A large parasol ensures you can shelter from the sun at any time you wish, and the barbecue is great for getting together in the fresh air.
On the same level, accessible via patio doors, are the spacious living area, kitchen and dining space. The kitchen is usefully positioned right beside the outdoor dining area, and offers all the appliances you may need, including a coffee machine, microwave and dishwasher. Just a few steps away, the comfy living area offers satellite TV, DVD and a music system – and the villa also has Wi-Fi and a PlayStation 3 for gaming fans.
The three bedrooms are upstairs – there are two doubles, one of which has its own private bathroom, and a twin bedroom. A second bathroom is also found on this floor. In addition, this villa provides secure garage parking for two cars.
Prigradica will impress you with its charm – it has a couple of beaches which are great to take the family to, and some lovely seafood restaurants, all a short walk from Villa Kneza. For a little more choice, you can head to Blato, a larger town just 4km away, or the beautiful Korčula town, a highlight of the island not to be missed.The island of Korčula is so picturesque it’s a wonder that it’s not overrun with visitors. The beautiful Old Town of Korčula sits pretty amongst olive groves, vineyards and pine forests on the island’s north-eastern side, looking out towards the Pelješac peninsula.
As one of the Adriatic’s more populous islands, Korčula is well-prepared for the visitors it receives, many of whom appreciate its laid-back vibe and natural beauty. The main town is a lovely place to wander, with street markets, pavement cafés and old buildings to admire. Look out for St Mark’s Cathedral and the imposing Revelin Tower which once marked the entrance to the walled city. The view, looking out over the harbour, is a charming one.
Around 15km from the town of Korčula, the lovely Pupnatska Luca beach is also worth a visit; aside from chilling out in the sun, its crystal blue waters are great for swimming and snorkelling. Elsewhere on the island, you can try white-water rafting in Blato, or diving in Vela Luka.
You may find some visitor attractions based around Marco Polo’s (possibly tenuous) connection to Korčula, as he is something of an unofficial mascot for the island. However, there are many more authentic experiences to be had on the island. With galleries, winery tours and many beautiful villages to see, avoid the tourist traps and keep it real. For an unforgettable taste of the true Korčula, head to Vela Luka and take a boat trip to Proizd island, just off the west coast – a naturally stunning spot you won’t want to miss.At Excellence Luxury Villas we pride ourselves on going that little bit further for our guests.
