We had a wonderfull week in the 'Villa Dream'! The nature around it is stunning and the owner was always helpfull and reacted quickly. Although the property looks bigger on the picutres, we had enough space for the 16 of us and enjoyed sitting together inside or on the terrace, eating dinner and enjoying the sunset above the ocean that we could see from the house. We can definetly recommend staying in the 'Villa Dream'!

I stayed at the house in August 2020 with a group of friends and really enjoyed our time here. The house is very large, well stocked up with all supplies and has an amazing amount of outdoor space around it - which is exactly what we were looking for.

We enjoyed the villa and its great surrounding. Very welcoming host Drago who gave us great tips for restaurants and places to visit. Place is clean and very artistic since the owner Drago is the artist he presented his work to us. Lots of space for big groups and families.

Drago went above and beyond to help us with any question or requirement, recommended taxi drivers, fisherrman, grocers, horseback riding close by and that made our stay memorable. His advice kept us from making mistakes. The view from the villa was amazing. In short you can’t make a mistake staying here.
