Family trip to Croatia
We absolutely loved our stay in Croatia and Iva’s beautiful home was the perfect base camp for all we wanted to do during our trip. It was our first visit to Croatia and we did not know the country at all, so finding a centrally located place to stay was key. The Makarska Riviera was full of beautiful towns with incredible views, food, and places to explore. Iva’s home was spacious and very comfortable. Each of my three children had his or her own bedroom and bath, which made them all very happy! We were thrilled with the lovely pool and beautiful terraces and landscaping. And the town of Podgora was either a quick hike down the hillside or ride in the car. There were so many great recommendations for dining and close-by activities, all provided by Iva. Thank you for an amazing first trip to Croatia! We hope to be back soon.

A perfect villa with a perfect view
This villa is really lovely, spacious and clean and the view was amazing. We loved staying here. You are a short car/taxi drive in to Podgoro for some lovely meals. Highly recommend going for a boat trip too - a lovely way to see other parts of Croatia. The host was responsive if we needed help with anything and we had the pleasure of meeting her in person too. I would recommend this villa, there are a number of steps but good for getting you fit!

Lovely Villa
Really lovely, clean villa in a stunning location however you need a car to drive into Podgora where parking is very difficult, especially in August, as it's very busy. We had a couple of issues with coffee machine not working, no gas for the BBQ and no parasols but this was dealt with quickly by Iva although one small parasol by the pool was not enough (5 of us huddled under it at one point). There was a lack of cups and glasses especially when 7 people are drinking water all day (possibly only around 7 or 8 glasses in total) and there were no plastic cups or glasses for the pool area which was dangerous, especially with children. We had to buy single use plastic cups to use by the pool which is really bad for the environment. On a positive note though the villa was very spacious and comfortable, including the beds and sofas and having an en-suite to each bedroom was just brilliant. I would recommend this villa, just needs a few more things in the kitchen.

This Villa is spectacular. From the location to the views. Podgora is a gem of a town and a 5 min easy drive. It is not too remote and Makarska is also very close by. Both are worth a visit. We took a day trip to Dubrovnik (2 hrs) and Split is just over an hour north. Perfect trip! I wish we could've stayed longer. A few kitchen items were missing (spatula for the grill and wine opener). The drip coffee maker was not working which would have been nice.

This property made our experience in Croatia exceptional. We traveled with 4 adults and 4 kids and it was comfortable and had everything we needed. The pool area was great and perfect for all of us. The views were just out of this world. Very clean and Iva was a wonderful property manager. She was available to answer all our questions. We can't wait to come back.

Family holiday in Podgora
Had such a lovely time in this modern and we'll equipped villa. Such a great location although being a bit remote from the main town hire car is recommended. There are some lovely seaside villages and towns along the coast all providing excellent food and service. Great restaurants locally and the private parking bay in podgora is great to have. Had such a great relaxing time. Recommend biokovo national park, although with a 9 seater mini bus it was a bit tight at times. Also a trip over to Mostar is a must. All in all a great location, excellent villa with everything you need.

Wonderful house
Eight friends stayed in Iva’s house. The four bedrooms were the perfect size for us. Comfortable beds, a well organized kitchen and a lovely multi-layered deck were all welcomed by us. Iva was immediately available to answer any questions. It was a quiet location, with a fabulous view. We would all go back!

Excellent villa
Beautifully appointed villa in a lovely quiet location. All of the rooms were tastefully decorated and furnished to a high standard. The villa afforded lots of interior space for cooking, watching TV and dining etc, but also had a great exterior dining, lounge and bbq area. The pool was a good size and the villa had lots of extras with the sauna, decent WiFi and the private parking on the front in Podgora.

Beautiful Villa with Stunning Views
This was our family holiday with mixed ages and the villa suited everyone. The views are stunning and we got a front row seat watching a thunderstorm happening over the islands where the lightning did not disappoint. The villa is a 10 minute drive from the local village and supermarket up a windy road. The villa has everything you need and is finished to a high end level. It is lovely sitting out in the evening with all the candle lanterns looking out at the sea watching the sun go down. We never used the pool as it wasn't heated, so too cold to use; but in the evening with the lights on it is lovely to sit around. Whilst there is local info about restaurants and trips available, there is no local information about resorts near to you and what they offer and how far they are. This would be helpful. Note that parking anywhere is a nightmare - make sure you have lots of coins. We had a lovely break and the villa would suit families or anyone who is a keen cyclist as it is on a big cycle route.

Great views and location.
This home above the quaint town of Podgora had many qualities we look for in a vacation home. There were AMAZING views from this home high in the hills, but it was close enough to quickly run down to town to have dinner. The town was small, picturesque and full of energy, but not too touristy. The house was very tastefully designed in a modern-but-local kind of way that we enjoyed. And the pool was great for the kids. We were able to take day trips to Omis for rafting and Krka to swim by the waterfalls. Our guide to the house, Ivan, was super friendly and helpful, which was very appreciated! Our main complaint was that on our final day, the gardener/pool guys arrived at 7:00am, and the cleaning crew entered the home at 8:00am, so instead of enjoying the final half day of the house, we felt uncomfortable and rushed out. At the price of the house, that was a morning of relaxing around the pool that we felt we had paid for and didn't get. Otherwise 5 stars.

Croatian Delight!
What a wonderful part of the world to relax and unwind in - made all the better by staying in this beautiful villa. We have just returned from spending a week here and missing it already. It catered for all our needs as a party of 8 adults with plenty of space to either be together to play cards and enjoy a drink or find that quieter area to sit and read a book. Great fun was had in the pool with all the inflatables! A must is to enjoy a 'sundowner' cocktail on the balcony above the pool and watch the magnificent sunset each evening. It's such a quiet and tranquil place being located on the hillside - so a car is a must - but Podgora and Makarska are really nearby for either eating out or getting the groceries. We would really recommend this stunning property - thanks Iva.

A fantastic house with stunning views of the sea all make this a relaxing place for a holiday.
This is an amazing house with all you could wish for and Iva made us feel very welcome with her generosity. We are a family of 7 adults and went to celebrate my 60th birthday. The younger generation were paying their own way(as much as Mum and Dad would like to have funded it all) and were very happy with the price they paid for the luxury accommodation they received. On arrival there was a locally made birthday cake with ice cream and Limoncello in the freezer, provided by Iva so thoughtful. The house is even better than the photos show it to be. The furnishings are very tasteful and all mod con's are provided. From the espresso coffee machine to the fridge down by the swimming pool. We spent a lot of time relaxing around the pool reading and swimming but also went out on trips. We did a food and wine tasting tour in Markarska and a boat trip to Havar for a day, both were great fun and we would do them again. We ate out in Podgora on two occasions, we left the car there in the private parking spot and got a taxi back which wasn't expensive. It was fun the next day discovering a walk down the hillside to collect the car, plenty of figs were picked off the trees on our way. The other evenings we cooked on the BBQ it was just so lovely sitting on the terrace playing games and drinking wine. All in all it was a great holiday and we would highly recommend this wonderful house.
