Villa Boena

For those seeking peace and seclusion, the brand-new Villa Boena is the holiday home for you. This modern, two-storey property is nestled in the Croatian countryside, in the unspoilt village of Zagvozd, sitting in the shadow of the spectacular Mount Biokovo and only twelve kilometres from the coast and the nearest sandy shores. Villa Boena has four spacious double bedrooms and can comfortably accommodate up to eight guests, ideal for a family holiday or a group of friends get-together. The two hundred square metre house is set in fenced-in grounds, surrounded by nature, with tall trees for shade and local shrubs for colour in season. The villa is constructed from classic Mediterranean whitewashed walls, with floor-to-ceiling sliding doors that let in lots of natural light and open onto scenic view terraces and balconies. Villa Boena is surrounded by a tiled terrace home to your private swimming pool and well-maintained gardens. The villa has secure parking, complimentary air conditioning, and Wi-Fi throughout. The interiors are cool and contemporary, stylishly furnished with modern pieces, and decorated in a sophisticated colour palette of crisp whites contrasted with soft shades of grey and beige.

Enter the villa at ground floor level, where you will be welcomed with a light and airy, open-plan living space with picture windows that reflect mountain views. The seating area has a dove grey L-shaped sofa, coffee tables, a flatscreen satellite television, and an enclosed log-burning fire for those cooler months and evenings. The elegant steel grey, eight-seater dining set is ideal for some impressive indoor entertaining. The adjacent white and stainless steel kitchen is fully equipped with all the latest appliances you will need to cater for your holiday, including an island with bar stools and that must-have morning coffee maker. The first of the four well-appointed bedrooms is on this floor, with a king-size bed, an ensuite shower room, and access to the pool terrace, perfect for rolling out of bed for a swim before breakfast. A guest cloakroom, with a washing machine, completes the ground floor. Take the stairs to the first floor, where you will find three spacious double bedrooms. One of the bedrooms has a queen size bed, an ensuite shower room, and a mountain and pool view balcony. Bedroom three has two single beds, which can be converted to a king, and bedroom four has a king-size bed. These bedrooms share a family bathroom with a large glass-fronted walk-in shower and a furnished mountain-view balcony.

Step out onto the tiled terrace, where an artificial lawn surrounds a centrepiece step-entry heated swimming pool. Modern sun loungers are strategically placed to maximise the summer rays. Have a game of ping-pong, bounce on the trampoline, take your turn in the swing chair whilst the children have fun in the dedicated play area. Cool off under the outdoor shower, and there’s an outdoor loo too. Catch up with this year’s best-seller as you relax at the soft seating spot. As dusk falls, meet for cocktails on the terrace, and watch the sunset over the mountain. Prepare supper in the fully equipped summer kitchen, grill local delicacies on the built-in barbecue, then feast alfresco at the ten-seater dining set as the stars come out to shine.
