“The time at Villa Blanka was absolutely wonderful!”

The time at Villa Blanka was absolutely wonderful! First of all, you barely find a host like Blanka herself, warm hearted, welcoming and caretaking. We felt more like with family than being on a rent. Which is also supported by the atmosphere of the house, that has been fantasically renovetad by Blanka and her family. On different levels you find 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms and in the basement a kitchen open to the diner and living room. All decorated with antiques and family memorabilia. Oh, and very clean! By the location at high elevation and at the end of the road you will also feel very close to nature and the fresh breeze in the leaves shading the place is the only noise you hear. Our morning routine to start the day became a swim in the pool that provides enough space for some nice turns. After that we enjoyed our morning coffee at the front terrace, overlooking the valley and with the bay and islands on the horizon. You will find many places with stunning views but also a large shaded patio in the back with a long inviting dining table. The kitchen offers everything you need for traditional home cooking with a sturdy gas oven and two large fridges offer enough space to store your prey from the Split fish market and the wine that goes along with it. Mentioning Split, it took us usually 20min to downtown (be cautious of the speed control!). Larger supermarkets are half way. You need to know that the tail end of the road to Villa Blanka is not paved. Each normal car will do fine but a lowered sports car might strand. On that note, a beach is right down the road in Strobec, however, we preferred Kasjuni on the other side of Split because of the lovely bay and Beach Bar. Back to the facility, internet works very well on ground and first floor and the TV is up to date with HDMI access for your computer. If you have a dog, it is very pet friendly and fenced in, but your puppy has to face quite some steps (like yourself). In summary, if you are looking for a relaxed atm

Charming villa on the hillside with spectacular sea view in very quiet surroundings, away from the tourist areas, but still only a few kilometers from the sea. (To get there, though, you must be prepared to take a steep, narrow and winding road). Great outside areas and swimming pool. Blanka was the perfect host. She guided us from the main lane, gave us pleny of practical information and prepared a delicious barbecue for us.

“An authentic Croatian home with the nicest host”

Blanka, our host, was very sweet, attentive and helpful, we felt very well taken care of. She provided us with everything we could possibly need, and also recommended a lovely restaurant and a great butcher in the village (we have had the most amazing Croatian BBQ at the villa with his delicious meat). Her house has a lot of charm, it’s cosy and spacious, we loved all the little nooks. We particularly enjoyed the gardens that smell like rosemary and thyme, and the terrace with the amazing sea view. The kitchen is slightly outdated but clean and well equipped, with two big fridges in another room for beer storage. :) The location is great, in a quiet mountain area with nice walks among the olive trees, 20 minutes ride from Split city centre. Overall an unforgettable stay! Thank you Blanka!

“A really charming house up in the mountains”

A really charming house up in the mountains. The pool is nice and the terraces are terrific with a great view and shadow. The house is quite spacious and the aircon is working well. A very nice hostess as well that is keen to help

“Hidden small paradise”

Our family stayed on ,,Villa Blanka,, in August 2021 for 18 days. First of all, we were impressed by the size of the territory and its well-groomed condition. There are a lot of decorative elements around, a lot of antique furniture and paintings will meet you in the house. We had the feeling that we were living in a villa with a great history, which, by the way, is true. The pool was really impressive in size. Thanks to the location in the mountains, you have your own,, private,, paradise with a perspective view of the sea, ships and the island of Brač. The road at first seems not easy, but you get used to it very quickly and start driving as well, famously, as the local people 😌👐🏼. We really appreciated Blanka's hospitality and sense of humor. The dinner with octopus in style of «Ispod peke» prepared by Blanka was very tasty. It was a very soulful and pleasant evening. Blanka always ready to help you in any question. We have bright memories from these nice holidays.

“Holidays with a group of friends”

We were 3 couple of friends and the house fitted totally for us. The swimming pool was very nice especially during the very sunny afternoons. The rooms are spacious and A/C works good Cleaning was done before our arrival and Blanka helped us to reach the house. Having a car is mandatory but it worths it to enjoy this peaceful place. There’s everything you need in 10/15mn by car (supermarkets, restaurants, etc) Blanka lives in few meters from the villa so she’s available directly. She gave us a lot of advices and helped us to make our stay the most comfortable. Definitely would recommend this villa and thanks again to blanka !
