Rent Villa Buria Croatia

Marvellously perched on the seafront, looking across the bay from Vela Luka on the stunning island of Korčula, Croatia, Villa Buria is a sanctuary of comfort and Adriatic charm. This chic 3-bedroom villa, designed to accommodate up to 8 guests, offers a perfect blend of modern elegance and coastal refinement.

Stepping into the villa, guests are greeted by a cosy living area with plush neutral tones, comfy sofas, and a warm ambience provided by floods of sunlight filtering through floor-to-ceiling windows that lead out to the terrace. The beige sofa converts to a bed suitable for two guests. Adjacent to the living room is a fully equipped kitchen and sleek dining area. The open-plan concept effortlessly interconnects the living, dining, and kitchen areas, creating a communal space that encourages shared moments and much laughter.
 
The kitchen itself is a delight for culinary enthusiasts thanks to its range of modern appliances and ample counterspace. Whether you’re tossing together a Mediterranean Salad or preparing a holiday feast for family and friends, Villa Buria’s kitchen is a breeze to cook in and boasts easy access to the interior and exterior dining settings.

The first of three tastefully decorated bedrooms is found on the ground floor, it consists of a double bed of earthy tons, an ensuite bathroom with shower, and direct access to the pool terrace. Upstairs reveals the other two bedrooms, each exuding a tranquil ambience and immersive views. Both rooms boast double beds, ensuite bathrooms with showers, and balconies with spectacular views. The master suite’s emerald bedhead is a nod to the island itself, known locally as the Emerald Isle.

Villa Buria’s exterior is a haven of relaxation and luxury. The stunning infinity pool is surrounded by sun loungers and manicured gardens whose lush greenery provides a balance to the open and ever-present expanse of azure blue. An inviting al fresco dining setting completes the terrace, providing guests with a sumptuous spot for those memorable meals which make a vacation unforgettable.

Well-situated across the bay from the picturesque town of Vela Luka on the island of Korčula (also known as the Emerald Isle), Villa Buria and its guests benefit from the comparative lack of tourists compared to equivalent places like Hvar. This gives the island its laid-back attitude but doesn’t mean there isn’t a bevvy of things to see, do, eat, and drink.

Vela Luka is where the ferry from Split arrives and has a wealth of natural and cultural attractions. Indeed, the Vela Luka Cultural Centre boasts two Henry Moore sculptures. And make sure to check out Vela Spila, a stunning cave hidden among olive groves with a gaping limestone cavity and two large holes in its ceiling that produce vivid plays of light.  

Korčula Old Town (a 44-minute drive) is certainly worth a day trip. Sometimes called “Little Dubrovnik”, thanks to the likeness of its medieval city walls, picturesque Venetian-style buildings with red rooftops, and the fact that the town is built on a small peninsula jutting out into the Peljesac channel. This historic town even provides a rival claim to Venice as the birthplace of Marco Polo (in a house on Ulica Depolo Street).

Be sure to check out St. Mark’s Cathedral, a stunning Gothic church built on the highest point in town. Finish the day at Mariola Wine Bar, a laid-back joint right on the sea where you can watch the world float by over a refreshing glass of local wine and tasty bruschetta. Or, if you’re feeling fancy, treat yourself to a cocktail at Massimo, a bar on top of a 15th-century tower perched precipitously on the sea’s edge. You’ll have to climb a ladder onto a roof, and your drinks will arrive via a pulley system, but it’s pretty fun.

Foodies should also pay the nearby town of Zrnovo a visit. This town originated Makaruni, a traditional homemade pasta from the island. Often served with beef, it can also be found with prawns or simple tomato sauce. Of course, Makaruni can be found at restaurants all over the island, so keep your eyes peeled.
