Elegant house with pool, panoramic view and beautiful Mediterranean garden

Villa Shiraz is a traditional stone house with infinity pool, magnificent view and spacious, Mediterranean garden set in a picturesque village Selca on the island Brač, two km from the beaches away. Built in 1825 and completely renovated to a high standard in 2009 today it is a small temple of family memorabilia, antiques, art, books and furniture that tell family history.
Its location offers the best of both worlds: complete peace and quiet when needed, but within easy access to the Bol town nightlife.
Nearby village Sumartin (2 km) is a pretty village with beaches, restaurants and bars around a small port.
Within a few minutes walk from the house is the centre of the village. There is a pharmacist, general practitioner, ATMs, grocery, small food market, restaurant, cafes, two churches, basketball pitch and tennis court. As one of our guests wrote: the location is great if you like staying in a real village and having an authentic experience complete with church bells, faint rooster crowing in the distance and town cats wandering the small lanes.
But the location of the house also gives you the opportunity to explore Brač, which unlike surrounding islands and despite the small airport, has preserved its pristine modesty and authenticity until today.

Imagine eating lobster in a swimsuit or swimming in a turqoise water under the pine tree. Rich history from the ancient times onwards is jumping out of every corner. Restaurants in forgotten villages or in the midst of an olive tree plantation, secluded coves, guided cycling routes, cave exploring, lush pine forrests or fish cought for you by our fisherman. Croatia's beach No. one Zlatni rat in Bol is 27 km away, Roman sarcophagi, mediveal chapels, mystical villages with legends about nasty little dwarfts, island's winemakers tours, local sheep cheese with prosciutto and olive oil. Brač's olive oil is listed in the world's most famous olive oil guide Flos olei. All that is waiting for you to experience, but you can just enjoy the pool, the garden and the view. Brač is the island for connoisseurs.
Since there are interesting things about the village and the island that I would be happy to share with you I wrote a short guide with the insider tips on what to see and do or what to eat and where based on my own experience. This guide will save you a lot of time and energy before the trip.
