From the hills of Istria to the Dalmatian islands, Croatia offers accommodations that are much more than just a place to sleep. Each of these destinations tells its own story and turns your stay into a unique experience. Below, discover seven of the most special places that combine luxury, authenticity, and unforgettable memories.
1. A medieval estate in Istria – Terra Magica’s hidden gem

In a medieval estate in Istria, hidden at the foot of Mount Učka, you’ll feel like part of history. Surrounded by old stone walls and centuries-old olive trees, this renovated property offers you the magic of Terra Magica. You can wander through its private courtyards, enjoy views of green hills (and perhaps the distant shimmer of the Adriatic), and dine under the stars where, by all accounts, noble families once gathered. The interior blends rustic wooden beams and a stone hearth with elegant modern comfort—giving you the best of old and new. Far from the bustle, this Istrian hideaway invites you to slow down and soak up the magic of rural Istria, where every stone has its own story.
2. Traditional stone house in a historic village

In Malo Grablje, you’re not coming for a classic holiday—you’re coming to escape the world. The accommodation is located in a once-abandoned village on Hvar, surrounded by rocks, pine trees, and complete silence. The stone houses have been restored with respect for their original appearance, yet inside they offer comfort that allows you to fully relax. From the terrace, you look toward rocky slopes and old houses that bear witness to other times. Days here pass slowly—swimming in the pool, light meals under the pergola, and evenings without noise, lights, or rush. If you’re looking for a place to disconnect, slow your thoughts, and feel a strong connection to the setting, Malo Grablje offers exactly that—a rare, almost forgotten silence.
3. Modern seaside villa – contemporary comfort just a few steps from the Adriatic

In the peaceful village of Mali Rat, right by the coast and with a view that opens toward the sea, a modern villa created for a carefree holiday awaits you. The spacious courtyard with a pool becomes the center of the day—here you start your mornings with coffee on a lounger and end your evenings with a light breeze and sunset. The interior is bright, with clean lines, thoughtfully designed to provide you with maximum comfort, with direct access to the outdoor areas. Terraces and balconies offer the perfect place to relax, while the sea is close enough for you to spontaneously go for a swim whenever you feel like it. Everything is tailored to simple luxury, privacy, and a sense of ease—ideal if you want a peaceful Mediterranean setting, but without giving up modern standards and comfort.
4. Island villa on Brač – a Mediterranean garden and seaside atmosphere

On the sunny island of Brač, in the peaceful surroundings of Mirca, there is a holiday home that invites you to slow down and completely switch off. The spacious courtyard is designed for outdoor living—stone terraces, comfortable loungers, and a large pool create the feeling of a private Mediterranean retreat. Here you spend your days between swimming, sunbathing, and long evenings under the pergola, with a view that at dusk turns into warm golden tones.The exterior radiates simplicity and harmony with nature, while the emphasis is on open space, greenery, and the calm that surrounds you. In the evening, with discreet lighting and the silence of the island, the pool becomes the center of relaxation. This is a place where you don’t have to rush, where every moment is dedicated to rest and a gentle island rhythm.
5. Modern villa in a quiet Dalmatian village – a view of the bay

In the quiet Dalmatian village of Vinišće, a modern villa created for complete relaxation awaits you. Set above a calm bay, it offers a sense of privacy and peace, far from crowds and noise. You start the day on a sunny terrace with a view of the sea, while below you a few fishing boats sway in the harbor. The spacious courtyard with a private pool is ideal for slow afternoons, swimming, and enjoying the silence broken only by the chirping of cicadas. In the evening, you prepare dinner outdoors and watch the sunset reflect on the calm surface of the sea. Here, you experience Dalmatia in its quietest form—simple, discreet, and completely relaxing.
6. Traditional stone estate – terrace, pool, and open horizons

On the slopes above Orebić lies a stone estate that opens toward space and the view. From the terraces, you look over green plots and vineyards all the way to the sea, while below you the town remains quiet and unobtrusive. Outdoor areas play the leading role here: a large pool, a smaller stone pool, and wide terraces create different corners for staying, socializing, or quietly retreating into the shade.The architecture is simple and honest—stone, wood, and open spaces are connected into a harmonious whole. Everything is tailored to outdoor living: morning coffee with a view, long lunches under the pergola, and evenings that end under the stars. This is a place that doesn’t try to impress with luxury, but with space, views, and the feeling that you have Pelješac all to yourself.
7. Modern villa on Brač – peace by the sea and clean lines

In Sumartin, right by the sea and a pine forest, a contemporary villa awaits you, putting emphasis on space, light, and views. The architecture is simple and understated, with straight lines and large glass surfaces that blur the boundary between interior and exterior. From almost every corner you can see the sea—whether you’re swimming in the pool, having lunch on the terrace, or waking up in the bedroom.The exterior is open and airy: a sun deck by the pool, the scent of pine trees, and silence broken only by the sound of waves below the house. The interior follows the same rhythm—modern, tidy, and free of excessive details, with warm wooden accents that give the space a sense of comfort rather than cold luxury.There’s no need for a plan here. The day naturally unfolds between swimming, a short walk to the village, and evenings on the terrace as the sea slowly darkens. The villa in Sumartin is ideal if you’re looking for peace, privacy, and a contemporary island stay without unnecessary adornment.
8. A villa above a turquoise bay – a view that stays forever

The accommodation is located in the peaceful Ljubljeva Bay, in the immediate vicinity of the sea, with an open view of the coast and crystal-clear water. The property is terraced along the rocks, which provides privacy and a great view from the terraces and outdoor areas. The accommodation includes an outdoor pool, landscaped terraces for outdoor dining, and direct access to the sea.The interior is modern and functional, with an emphasis on bright spaces and large glass walls that connect the inside with the outdoor part of the house.

Q: Are these villas suitable for families with children?
A: Most of the listed accommodations welcome families and offer many amenities that children can enjoy – such as pools adapted for younger guests, spacious fenced yards for play, or even children’s bedrooms and playrooms. However, some villas (such as smaller boutique estates) are intended exclusively for adult guests in order to preserve peace and quiet. We recommend mentioning that you are traveling with children when booking so we can help you choose the ideal property. The description of each villa usually indicates whether it is family-friendly and what child-oriented amenities it offers.
Q: What is the best time of year to stay in these types of accommodations?
A: It depends on your preferences. The summer months (June – September) are the most popular for coastal villas due to warm weather, long days, and swimming opportunities. During this time, destinations come to life and you can experience the full Mediterranean atmosphere. On the other hand, spring and early autumn are ideal if you want to avoid crowds – the weather is still pleasant, prices may be lower, and the overall experience is more peaceful. Some estates (especially in Istria or the Dalmatian hinterland) are also magical in winter, with fireplaces and wellness facilities, but be sure to check whether they operate year-round. In general, late spring and early autumn are many guests’ favorite balance of beautiful weather and privacy in these villas.
