Remember the Carpenters' song "Top of the world"? That's how you feel up there at Villa Hill View! Stunning location high above the coastline with great view over the Kastela Bay. The villa (actually two buildings connected through an outside kitchen) is located on a really spacious property spanning over five terraces, beautifully gardened with olive and herb trees. The pool is spotless clean and the swinging sunbed is a dream for day-long book reading!
The outside kitchen is super equipped and a great place for wood fire BBQs (no need to mention that everything you need is there: wood, charcoal lighter, cutlery, chopping boards, a spacious outside fridge and even an ice maker!)
The distance down to town is probably a bit too bit long for walking (downhill is ok, but uphill is quite steep), so you need a car – but you shout have that anyway to visit the region. In town there is a proper Ribola supermarket, a few kilometres towards Split there is a very good large Superspar.
Baletna Skola is a proper family style eatery with basic hearty grilled food and simple but friendly service (even the quaffing house wine is perfectly drinkable), more fine-dining and elegant is Mala Mora, excellent food with high quality ingredients and good wines. UBER is easily available anywhere/anytime, fare from/to town-Villa is ca. € 4,7.
The host Antonio is a super nice guy, always helpful (but there was not much help needed: The villa is really very good equipped, e.g. lots of towels and even bath robes!) and fluent in English.
Bottom line: well deserved 5 stars, not the slightest doubt!
