We have just returned from Croatia after spending one week at this fantastic property. We were a mixed group of Swedes and Americans, with two children and five adults.
The house itself is very spacious, well equipped, well maintained and spotlessly clean. There is plenty of room to spread out and enjoy your stay, both inside and out. One of the highlights of the property is the amazing outside space, with a beautiful pool and BBQ area. We enjoyed most of our evening meals poolside, while taking in the wonderful sights and sounds of the valley below.
The house is located in a very peaceful valley in the little village of Smolonje, which about 15 minutes by car from the town of Omis. We used it as a basecamp for daytrips to Split, Trogir, and Zadar. We also visited Omis several times and can highly recommend the seaside Restaurant Zvizdan, where you can have a great meal and go for a swim afterwards. There are several small grocery stores within a few minutes of the house, with a much larger store available in Omis.
I cannot say enough about the owners of the property, Marijana and Robert - they are truly exceptional! They went out of their way to ensure that we had a memorable stay. They met us on day one and proudly gave us a tour to review all of the house amenities and answer any questions that we had. We concluded with a welcome toast of homemade walnut and cherry liqueurs.
One evening they even brought us homemade wine and a traditional local meal, along with fresh vegetables from their garden. Throughout the week, they were always available to answer any questions, provide recommendations and assist in booking excursions. (Marijana even met us very early one morning in Omis to ensure that we found parking and made it on time to a planned speedboat tour.)
We were sad to leave, but they gave us a lovely parting gift of traditional liqueurs to remember our stay.
Thank you Robert and Marijana for an amazing week! I can highly recommend your wonderful property without hesitation! You are truly exceptional hosts!!
