Villa Valerijs Croatia

Villa Valerijs is such a warm, inviting holiday home in such a wonderful spot, just raised on the hill above the charming town of Milna on Brac Island. It is high-class accommodation in a fabulous setting with just a few minutes walk down to the delightful harbour, restaurants, shops and bars. With six lovely bedrooms, it sleeps 11 guests and is ideal for a large family group or a group of friends. The villa oozes charm and warmth with its gorgeous planting and fabulous décor. The pool, terraces and garden are absolutely amazing by day and night. The mood lighting is so atmospheric and focuses the eye on the wonderful ancient olive trees and colourful foliage. The pool is accessed by steps and is surrounded by sun loungers, some in the sun and some covered, as well as a comfy sofa and chairs. The terrace is so spacious. With the villa being in a raised position, the views are to die for. It is so peaceful, perfect for picking up your holiday read and relax! There is a brick-built barbecue and a further chill-out area with table football, darts and table tennis to enjoy. There is also a cute playground for young children and an area for boules. What a wonderful family holiday you will have here! To the side of the house is a covered outdoor dining for lovely alfresco summer meals.  The open-plan living, dining and kitchen area is so modern and comfortable. The fully equipped kitchen is really smart. The doors and windows let in so much light and allow you to admire the wonderful views. The six bedrooms are all so tastefully decorated. There are three kings, two twins and one single bedroom. They are very elegant and restful. One of the twins has cute bird wall motifs – so cheerful for a child’s room! One of the kings and one twin have charming, beamed sloping ceilings. Beautiful scenery can be seen from the windows. The four bathrooms are very smart and well-maintained. Any keep-fit fans will be delighted by the superbly equipped gym. If you are very fit, the Vanka Regule extreme sports festival takes place in July and is open to all for trail running, free climbing and mountain biking, as well as tightrope-style slacklining, so be prepared if you want to take part! There is something for everyone in this wonderful villa. You might not want to leave it, but crystal clear sea beckons just a few hundred metres away.Milna is located on the north-west side of Brac. The Venetians called it ‘Valle di mille navi’ (the bay of a thousand ships) due to the welcoming bays of Milna. It is reputed as the most beautiful and safest harbour on Brac. Stone houses along the stunning coastline are small masterpieces of plebeian architecture and the Baroque church with its typical Dalmatian bell tower is so beautiful. Milna will enchant you with its healthy Mediterranean cuisine, specialising in fresh fish, quality olive oil and home-made wines. You can enjoy sailing, fishing or scuba-diving from the harbours.  Brac Island is blessed with stunning scenery making it one of the Adriatic’s most beautiful islands. It is less busy than the glittering islands of Hvar and Korkula. Curious explorers will be fascinated by the wonderful nearby coves of Osibova, Lucice or the Bobovisca harbour, Lozisca village and the nearby small island of Mrdulja situated at the entrance of the harbour. The charming village, Selca is very pretty. Sumartin, just below Selca has the most amazing clear azure sea. It is great for snorkelling as there are so many fish. The mesmerising Zlatni Rat beach at Bol that adorns 90% of Croatia’s tourism posters is astonishing. It is one of the most beautiful beaches of the Mediterranean with its crystal clear sea that goes from turquoise to dark blue and is bordered with decades-old pine trees. Thanks to its particular shape, it one of the most exceptional beaches in the world. Zlatni Rat’s elegance and appeal have made it the symbol of both the town of Bol and Croatia. It is protected by the government of Croatia as a geo-morphological monument! Brac is famous for it’s very attractive, white stone. The famous White House in Washington is made from Brac stone. It is also famous for its  ‘buhavica’ olive oil, cheese, wine, honey and wine. Even the most demanding gourmands will be impressed on Brac! The Stina Winery on the waterfront at Bol is lovely and the Prosec, a little like Australian muscat, is delicious!At Excellence Luxury Villas we pride ourselves on going that little bit further for our guests.
