About this property

Traditional Villa Bonaca in Sumartin with private pool, Brač Island, near sea

Located in the heart of the charming fishing village of Sumartin, Villa Bonaca—whose name means "tranquillity" in Croatian—offers everything you need for a memorable island escape. Just steps from the sea, the beach, ferry port, and bus station, the villa is surrounded by waterfront cafés, traditional Dalmatian restaurants, local shops, and supermarkets, allowing you to experience authentic island life at your own pace.
One of the unique pleasures of staying in Sumartin is its active fishing harbour, where local fishermen return each day with freshly caught seafood. Here, you can purchase fresh fish directly from the boats or from nearby local shops and prepare your own Mediterranean feast in the villa.
While the crystal-clear Adriatic Sea is only moments away, the villa also offers a private oasis for relaxation. The beautifully landscaped Mediterranean garden features a private swimming pool with comfortable sun loungers, while the spacious terrace provides the perfect setting for al fresco dining with panoramic views of the sea, the surrounding islands, and the picturesque village.
The upper floors are dedicated to rest and comfort, offering three cosy bedrooms—two with double beds and one with two single beds. Warm wooden furnishings create a welcoming atmosphere, while the carefully designed interiors combine traditional Dalmatian charm with modern comfort. Two contemporary bathrooms ensure a relaxing and convenient stay for families and groups alike.
Whether you spend your days exploring the island, enjoying fresh local cuisine, or simply unwinding by the pool with a view of the Adriatic, Villa Bonaca provides the perfect setting for an authentic and relaxing holiday on the beautiful island of Brač.

Special Place

Not only is this property steps from the water and has a beautiful view of the church and the town — it was my grandfathers home! I believe his grandfather lived there as well (1797-1865). It was such a special time for me and my family. ❤️. I hope to return again soon.

Such a wonderful villa.

It is the perfect location with everything just a few metres away - little supermarket, bakery, fruit/veg stall, cafes, restaurants and the beautiful sea! The pool is a good size and fabulous terrace with covered area for eating. Beautiful views too. The bedrooms are basic but comfortable with air conditioning in each room. The Concierge service was so helpful and made everything really easy. Our local host Angela was really fabulous and so friendly. We loved it here. Thank you Villa Bonaca!

Excellent value in a stunning location

Villa Bonaca is a character property in a lovely location overlooking the harbour in the center of Sumartin. The location is perfect for a relaxing break, with great access to local restaurants, shops, the small beach area and the activity of the harbour. Our host Mrs Angela was a total delight, very helpful and enthusiastic about the island of Brac. The villa offers a good standard of accommodation with three spacious bedrooms, two bathrooms, separate toilet and well equipped kitchen. The outside space is a real asset with a lovely terrace for outdoor dining and the bonus of a private pool all with great views of the harbour, village and mountains beyond. The price we paid for our stay was excellent value given the quality of the property and the location. A great base for a stay in the beautiful island of Brac.

My wife and two friends stayed in the villa that is located above the harbour. Breafast overlooking the harbour was a treat. Very comfortable - beautiful coastline and village. Not much open early season but our wonderful host helped with great recommendations and car hire - all very reasonable.

All the accommodation in our range must have that special something which best reflects the place it is in. We choose our accommodation with great care, because we want it to stand out in a crowd of alternatives.

Why they chose this property

All the accommodation in the Orvas Hotels range must have that special something which best reflects the place it is in. We choose our accommodation with great care, because we want it to stand out in a crowd of alternatives. Villa Bonaca offers comfort and warmth of the traditional Dalmatian stone villa. The stunning sea views are inspiring. The picturesque Sumartin is still a peaceful place to spend a restful holiday. There are some quiet, hidden coves nearby with sandy or pebble beaches.

What makes this property unique

Sumartin is attractive because it has retained its simplicity, with its lovely beaches, unspoiled nature and crystal clear sea. You can always find fresh fish and other local delicacies, like cheese, honey, lamb and wine. If you want entertainment, you can always go to Bol, one of the best-known Adriatic destinations with a vibrant nightlife and a wide range of sporting activities.
