Located across the bay from the idyllic town of Vela Luka on the island of Korčula (also known as the Emerald Isle), Villa Farda and its guests benefit from the comparative lack of tourists compared to places like Hvar. This gives the island its laid-back attitude but doesn’t mean there isn’t a wealth of things to see, do, and consume.
Vela Luka is where the ferry from Split arrives and has a bevy 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.
