Amazing property and hosts went way and beyond to make our experience memorable. Highly recommend this first class villa. Location is great,lovely restaurants and beaches and easy to get to split by bus or by Uber.
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at this beautiful villa with our large family of 21 people, ranging in age from children to adults. The property is stunning, and one of the highlights was watching the amazing sunsets from the pool and jacuzzi on the third-floor terrace. The location was also great, just a short distance from the beach promenade, and it made a perfect base for exploring the nearby towns and beautiful beaches.We particularly enjoyed having breakfast included. The variety was excellent, and the lovely ladies preparing breakfast were incredibly sweet, friendly, and attentive. They quickly noticed what we enjoyed and made sure there was always more of it the following day. We also loved the hotel-like service. Having our rooms cleaned regularly and laundry taken care of made such a difference, especially with such a large group. GG was always reachable whenever we needed anything and was extremely helpful throughout our stay.A definite highlight was the BBQ pool party on our last evening. With an amazing DJ, delicious cocktails, and such a fun atmosphere, it was the perfect grand finale to an already fantastic holiday.If we had to mention one small area for improvement, it would be the kitchen equipment. As we wanted to cook for ourselves on some evenings, we found that the kitchens could have used larger pots and pans to accommodate such a big group. On request though GG brought us a pot.To summarize: It was really amazing.
This villa was everything we wanted, we did the BBQ night twice it was that good, and we also did the Cocktail and Pizza night which was a blast, he also arranged a boat trip for us really good and any restaurant bookings we wanted he did for us, would recommend this villa to anyone. First time in Croatia what a beautiful country and people
We went for my partner & friends 40th birthday celebrations and the villa did not disappoint! It was clean and spacious, keeping everyone together but also private space with your own bathrooms! The villa was beautiful and everything was delivered at a high level of perfection including the breakfast! The pizza and cocktail party was a brilliant night and the host couldn’t do enough for you! Thank you so much to Villa GG for making our trip unforgettable!

The beat vacation ever
I would be hard-pressed to find any fault with our time at Villa GG. Everything, literally everything was perfect. Luxirious accommodations, hospitable hosts, spectacular views, crystal-clean sea... We started planning a return trip on our way to the airport.
Response from VrboOwner on 23 Mar 2020
Dear Mr Simon thank you for your kind words. It truly will be a great pleasure for the team VillaGG to have you all back here soon to show you even more of "everything".
Until next time, keep us in your memories.
GG
We loved our stay at the beautiful villa of GG. Our host helped us with airport transportation and with activities in Split. I would definitely recommend the private dining with a chef. Big thanks again GG!!
Our stay at Villa GG was WONDERFUL. The Villa is perched on a beautiful hill that gives you wonderful ocean views.. The furnishings are chic and the layout is great for families or friends ‘groups.The host can provide you with every service and activity that you might like to engage in while you are staying there. He is very available and will help you in anyway you need. This is the best VRBO that we have rented, and engaged host who will provide everything for you. The lovely women who come in and make breakfast for you every day are very sweet and kind. This property is a 10 plus
We can’t say enough good things about our stay at villa GG. Grgo the owner and Ivo our host couldn’t have been more gracious and helpful. The villa is spectacular and perfect for large gatherings. The views are incredible and we are a Very short walk from the beach, restaurants and the market. I highly recommend this villa and allowing them to help plan excursions for your group. My kids are already asking when we can go back!

Dear Scott,
Thank you for your compliments.
What can I say except we do our best to deliver a complete experience so you as the group organizer is able to enjoy your time here and have a relaxing vacation as well.
Nothing better to say to a future group leader looking for the perfect holiday accommodation right? :)
Keep in touch

A group of 20 of us booked the entire villa for a week. We couldn’t have been more pleased with the accommodations. GG and his wife are attentive, knowledgeable, friendly and responsive hosts. We appreciated their added services which included scheduling outings, dinners and lunches for our group. We enjoyed the morning buffet, afternoons by the pools and evenings watching the sunset on the balcony. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you for hosting a wonderful vacation!!
Villa GG itself absolutely stunning and so spacious so we could have our own space but mix comfortably together too.
Villa had everything we needed.
GG and staff went above and beyond for us.
Super location close to Split and surrounding areas.
We as a large family have spent many holidays together and we all agreed that this was the best yet.
Thanks GG and team
Unbelievable service and quality! GG and crew gave us a family trip we'll never forget.
Note : LOTS of stairs! I'm not joking there are so many stairs.
Stairs not withstanding
Our stay at Villa GG was absolutely incredible!! We stayed here with a small group of family and friends for my wedding and every single guest was absolutely blown away. Prior to arrival, we coordinated dinners at the villa through GG and his team. From check in we were greeted with a spotless property, a welcome set up of drinks and a traditional Croatian dish, and friendly conversations with the hosts who made us feel like they wanted to get to know us. Throughout out stay, we were provided exceptional service that tended to any need or request. We noticed them take the time to get to know our guests and really immersed us in Croatian culture. We did a pizza party that included a mixologist and DJ, as well as a bbq dinner with a traditional Croatian peka which were both amazing dinners. We also booked van transfers. The vendors/partners that GG provides for these are passionate about their crafts and providing an exceptional experience which blew away all of our guests. The property also provides wine, beer, and a liquor assortment so you are fully taken care of there. One thing that our guest loved and took advantage of was the complimentary wash and fold service. My one regret was not booking our activities through GG because his services are exceptional. GG and his team made my wedding week one we will never forget and blew our guests away while also making us all feel like family to them. We will definitely be returning and cant recommend this property enough!!!
We were a large group of 22 people (6 families with adults and teens) staying at Villa GG for a week and we had an amazing time there ! The Villa was better than presented, with plenty of room for adults and children to spread out or congregate for meals and lounging. The pool area is fabulous and the Villa is in walking distance to the beach, restaurants and a small market. Each morning, we were greeted with a delicious breakfast spread ! GG, Ivana and staff were wonderful and very accommodating throughout the week. They planned a traditional Croatian Barbecue dinner, A pizza cocktail evening and a day trip to Dubrovnik for us to enjoy. We loved our week in Croatia at Villa GG and would most definitely return !!! Thank you for such a memorable 50 Birthday Celebration with our beloved friends and their families!!!
I rented Villa GG to celebrate a milestone birthday with 17 of my friends. My goal was to find a home that would be spacious enough for 18 women, with services that would allow everyone to have great time and relax… this villa did not disappoint!!! I would like to thank GG and his wife for the best week I could have imagined. GG helped me organize all of the events in advance (i.e., Pizza and Cocktail Party, Private Chef dinner, Catamaran and Car Transfers), this made planning this trip so much easier for me. Each event was amazing and my guests thoroughly enjoyed all of them. I was also very impressed with the breakfast every morning. The house is beautiful with the most amazing views. My friends and I will definitely be return customers.
Our family (20 of us from ages 18 to 90) met in Split to start our family vacation and celebrate my Dad's 90th birthday.
The villa was excellent for our purposes with a host who was always available and extremely helpful.
GG arranged two special nights for us which were a highlight of the trip.
The "cocktail and pizza party" saw the pool area transformed into a trendy lounge with mood lighting, DJ, fun bartender and drinks and of course 'to die for' thin crust pizzas. Highly recommended if you have a big group like we did as nobody wants to cook when they're on vacation!
The sit down surf and turf type dinner was a great first family meal together after a long day of traveling. The food was excellent and another highlight of the trip.
For this trip we spent time at the pool relaxing, a day trip yachting and an evening in the old town area. The villa is a bit out of town but completely self sufficient with great access to the water, grocery stores and restaurants, but be prepared for traffic jams to get into town depending on when you travel.
Villa GG served our purposes extremely well and GG is a wonderful host. Do take advantage of his knowledge and connections to get the most out of your stay.
We'd highly recommend this villa!
The facility is as advertised. It's beautiful, clean, neat, and spacious. The house does not lack anything. Each floor has an open kitchen, a large family room, and comfortable seating with a large screen TV. Each bedroom has comfortable beds and its own modern tiled bathroom. The views from the second and third stories are fabulous as you view the Adriatic Sea. The first floor enclosed back porch is perfect for dining of up to 22 people. The two outdoor pools a nicely tiled and the perimeter of each is neon lite; a very nice touch. One pool is of normal depth, the other is a wading, great for small children or adults who wish to sit in a pool. Most importantly, our host, GG, and his staff are super friendly and helpful. If you have a question, they have an answer. Further, they can make any and all arrangements you want for your perfect vacation, whether it be a special pool pizza party or a genuine Croatian feast. Finally, the included breakfasts are huge, delicious, and home made. It was hard going home after this experience at Villa GG. Our week there was memorable.
I cannot say positive things about our stay! It would take me an hour a day for a week to properly praise GG, Ivana, the staff (and the bunnies) enough, BUT I will do my best.
1.) Before the trip, the communication between GG (the host) and I was first-rate! If GG did not respond to me right away, it wasn't more than a few hours, and this was amazing because there was a 6-hour time difference! That made me feel important and welcomed before we stepped foot onto the property.
2.) Additionally, prior to the trip, GG was accommodating to a few changes/requests we had for our stay. He was always polite, professional, and willing to entertain and oblige whenever he could.
3.) GG ensured our transportation to and from the airport was taken care of. This was important to us because we had eight adults and six children (one who needed a car seat), and visiting a country none of us had ever been to, the potential uncertainty of our safety getting to and from the property was concerning- GG made sure we felt comfortable.
4.) Upon our arrival, we were promptly greeted by GG (who helped us gather our many, many, many bags and bring them up to the house (via the many, many steps to get there- which, at first, seemed daunting, but was okay after a day or so). GG gave us the house's history (where he grew up) and provided us with a tour of the amazing setting for which we would stay for about five days.
Vi var 19 personer mellan 5-70 år som bodde i denna fantastiska villa. Bra sovrum med egna badrum. Stora sällskapsutrymmen både inne och ute. Den var perfekt för vår familj. Det serverades en otrolig frukostbuffé som överträffade alla hotellfrukostar och våra förväntningar. Grgo är den perfekta värden. Trevlig, fanns alltid till hands och pratade svenska. Vi kommer gärna tillbaka.

VillaGG was an amazing stay with the best host that we could of ask for. The villa spacious, clean and beautiful. Only a few steps from the beach and conveniently situated near a mini mart.
GG was everything you could ever want out of a gracious host. Delicious breakfast every morning and had a private dinner waiting for us when we arrived. We were so impressed we ended up having a second private dinner.
GG also set up transportation for our excursions and as well as other recommendations to make sure we got the most out of our stay. A big thank you to him and his staff.
We were a multigenerational family of 20 people (from age 4 to 82 yrs) and found this villa to be a perfect set up for our group. There was common space for us to gather and the dining table comfortably accommodated all 20 of us. GG was truly an amazing host whose hospitality was unmatched. During the planning stages of our trip, he was so responsive and assured that he would take care of all our requests. He helped arrange private transportation from Dubrovnik to Split for our family in a beautiful and comfortable bus. The villa is a 20 min ride into the heart of Split and he arranged a lot of transportation needs during our stay. It is also easy to do Uber there as well, but we found the private car transportation the most convenient.
There was a gorgeous spread of breakfast (probably the best in Split!) every morning that everyone thoroughly enjoyed. GG went above and beyond to assure that our needs were met. We also found it very convenient to have a couple of dinners prepared at the villa by the chef.
We also enjoyed the beach which was about a 5 min walk down the road. At sunset, you should also go to the top floor of the villa which provides a beautiful view.
We all very much enjoyed our stay and highly recommend this property. Thank you for your warm hospitality, GG!
We stayed at Grgo’s beautiful property for 2 weeks, first with a group of friends and then with our family. Our reception on the first day was just a precursor as to what was to come! Grgo welcomed us warmly and had a most-welcome spread of beautiful appetizers and various wines for us to enjoy after a long flight. The house was impeccably clean and beautifully furnished. We enjoyed morning coffee and breakfast (a vast spread of bread, cheeses, homemade pastries and delicious fresh fruit) each morning—-more than enough food to get us on our way. Grgo spared no expense to make sure that our needs were met, from arranging transportation to/from the airport to ensuring that each of our groups had the best possible tour guides to various activities. We enjoyed trips to Krka and Zadar, not to mention a fantastic day on the water, visiting the Blue Cave and the most beautiful island of Hvar (very sophisticated—great shopping). When one of our friends left a bag containing his passport in a taxi, it was Grgo to the rescue—-the bag with passport recovered within an hour!! The dinners were spectacular and Grgo made sure to be sure that any dietary restrictions were met —- our gluten-free guests had a wide choice from which to choose. The ladies and staff, including a terrific chef, were absolutely top-notch, always friendly and helpful. I can’t say enough about the house—-we all had plenty of room to be together and also room to be apart when someone needed to work or just have a little “me” time. All in all, I can’t recommend this property or Grgo any more highly—-he will ensure that your vacation is one that you’ll never forget! We’re already looking forward to returning!
We had a group of 18 friends and family members visiting Split for a week, this villa was an absolutely perfect setup for us to enjoy our time in Croatia. It’s well renovated and beautifully maintained with AC in every room. The views of the Mediterranean from the balconies are stunning. The staff were perfect and I especially recommend booking the chef, it was ideal to just have him grocery shop and prepare breakfast and dinner for everyone at the villa. The dining room table on the first floor accommodated up to 22 people so it was prefect.

Thank you for choosing our VillaGG for your stay in Croatia. It was a pleasure to host you all and enhance the whole experience with the private chef option which is definitely a key feature now after implementing breakfast as a standard last couple of years.
The house is amazing and perfect for a larger group. Ivo could not have taken better care of us. Best host you can wish for. He knows all the spots and got all the connections. The house is literally 6 min walk from the beach and a short cab ride to split. Our trip coincided with the pandemic but Gg and Ivo could not have made us feel more safe and welcome. 5 stars through and through. Highly recommend!!!
The property is fabulous. It is exactly as the pictures show. There were 15 of us and we had lots of space. The property is a 20 minute drive into Split town. Ivo was happy to arrange transport but we largely used uber, which was very reasonable. There is a supermarket/bakery at the bottom of the road for the basics. It is also ideally situated beside the beach.
The pool area was fabulous and very well maintained. Each floor had everything we needed and there was lots of space for dining.
Ivo, our host, where do I begin to describe him. Ivo was the most attentive host, he went over and above in everything he did. He helped us arrange food and drinks for the property, he booked restaurants for us, he picked up pizza and delivered it to the property, he joined us for an evening out and showed us some great bars. He really made the weekend run smoothly. We arrived early and were met by Ivo who had prepared a beautiful reception of meat/cheeses and wine. Ivo sat with us and explained everything we needed to know and insisted that nothing was too much.
We will definitely be returning to the property in the future.
Thank you so much for a very memorable stay. You have made me a very happy Hen!! x
This property is so lovely and perfect for a large group! We had 18 family members from 18 to 82 years old. The views are spectacular. Being a family of chefs the kitchens were well stocked so we could make our fabulous meals. Beds were comfortable, plenty of sheets and towels ! Beautiful pool area! GG and our Host IVo were helpful and accommodating with sightseeing info and more. My son forgot some clothes in his closet when we left and Ivo sent them to him at our next Airbnb. Really over the top! Thanks guys!
Highly recommend and hope to come again soon!!!!!
