Villa Viktors Croatia

If you are looking for a secluded, peaceful Croatian getaway surrounded with stunning, untouched nature and with the beach just metres from your garden with barely a soul in sight, then Villa Viktors has to be a great contender. With eight lovely bedrooms and an unusual set up with three living rooms and three kitchens, this villa would be ideal for an extended family or a group of friends that might like a little space of their own from time to time. Located in Betina, right at the heart of the island of Murter, in the necklace of islands off the mainland coast between Sibenik and Zadar, Villa Viktors is so amazing with an incredible outside space and even a boat at your disposal if you have a licence.  With no close neighbours at all, this position is marvellous. The garden is brimming with ancient olive trees, pines, cypress, mandarin, agaves, rosemary and dazzling, colourful plants. It is so fragrant too! There is so much space and different levels to enjoy, all with spectacular views. The pool is excellent with many sun loungers and parasols and various lounge areas around to enjoy a glass of wine, morning coffee or to read that holiday book. You cannot fail to relax in this peaceful haven. The pool area has an outdoor shower, dressing room and bathroom as well as a cute mini playground for children. It will be wonderful to sit on the terrace in the comfy furniture and watch the sun go down and later to look at the sparkling stars. The ground floor dining terrace has two tables, so there is plenty of space for the whole villa group. There is a huge, stone barbecue for delicious alfresco suppers. How special to walk out and sunbathe on your very own piece of the beach! On the ground floor of this fabulous villa, there is a very spacious open-plan living, dining and kitchen area. On the first floor, there are four bedrooms, four bathrooms as well as extra living spaces and kitchens and a huge balcony. The views are to die for! The second floor has a further four bedrooms and bathrooms. This villa really is a harmonious oasis and a fantastic space for a large group. This wonderful villa is in a lovely spot near Betina on the beautiful, picturesque island of Murter, a stunning Dalmation island covered with age-old olive groves, fig trees and plenty of charm. Murter has a very indented coastline so has many bays. The most popular of which are on the south side of the island, protected from the wind. Slanica is the main beach with lovely shallow water, sand and rocks. Podvrske has gorgeous white sand and turquoise water with a fabulous view of the Kornati Islands. Surrounded by fragrant pine woods, Cigrade is excellent if you are seeking peace and solitude.  The island has four towns, the older ones are Murter and Jezera, and the newer ones are Tisno and Betina. There are many restaurants and cafes on Murter serving delicious fresh ingredients such as octopus, polenta with cuttlefish and monkfish stew. Hiking and cycling are very popular on this lovely island. Murter is reached by a bridge from the mainland. Popular trips from this location are to Zadar, Sibenik, Trogir or Split. Zadar is rich in history and natural beauty. You can quietly wander around the marble streets and marvel at the splendid sunsets. The film director and master of suspense Hitchcock described it as ‘the most beautiful sunset in the world’. To celebrate these breathtaking sunsets a ‘Monument to the Sun’ was built on the edge of the Zadar waterfront. It is an all day, 22-metre disc which soaks up the solar rays only to dazzle visitors with coloured light patterns as night falls. The Sea Organ is an art installation formed by cleverly cutting steps into the promenade. The underwater pipes make musical sounds as if each wave is sighing! Sibenik is a UNESCO fortress city with the gorgeous Cathedral of St James dominating the historic old town.  Guests on Murter that want more entertainment, generally head to Vodice or Pirovac.At Excellence Luxury Villas we pride ourselves on going that little bit further for our guests.
