Overview
For those seeking peace and seclusion, the new Villa Boena is the holiday home for you. This modern, two-storey property is nestled in the Croatian countryside, near 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.
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 an 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 kitchen is fully equipped with all the latest appliances you will need to cater for your holiday. The first of the four 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, and 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. 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.

Location
About the surrounding area of Villa BoenaVilla Boena can be found nestled in the countryside, under two kilometres from the unspoilt village of Zagvozd, at the foothills of Mount Biokovo, twelve kilometres from the resort town of Baska Voda, on the dramatic Croatian coastline. The villa is a scenic ninety-six-kilometre drive from Split International Airport. The village has a minimart stocked with provisions for your holiday, and a local restaurant for the days you don’t fancy cooking. The nearest beach is twelve kilometres away, in the picturesque town of Baska Voda, blessed with twenty kilometres of sandy shores and the calm waters of the Adriatic Sea.
Pine trees and a mountain backdrop provide a superb setting to enjoy dining alfresco by the seashore on freshly caught seafood on the Makarska Riviera. The town of Imotski is only seventeen kilometres from the villa, home to the fascinating natural phenomenon of the Red and Blue Lakes. It has an historic old town with stone streets and the tenth-century Topana fortress. The area is famous for hiking, cycling trails, bird watching, mountaineering, and free-climbing. Take the zip liner in Omis over the Cetina River, which flows down a magnificent canyon, and enjoy a bird’s eye view of the abundant natural flora and fauna. Alternatively, water raft or kayak down the river before viewing the canyon on the glass-fronted skywalk on Biokovo Mountain.

Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesThere’s something for kids of all ages to see and do when you holiday in Villa Boena, set in the heart of the Croatian countryside. Starting with the villa’s private swimming pool, when it’s your own, and there are no set hours, they can splash and play all day. The villa has an artificial lawn with a dedicated children’s playground, a trampoline, and a ping pong table, which can keep them amused until bedtime.
The nearest beach is a twelve-kilometre drive in Baska Voda, with twenty kilometres of golden sands and easy entry to crystal clear waters of the Adriatic Sea, making it safe for swimming and snorkelling. Highly recommended family-friendly beaches with organised facilities are the blue flag Nikolina, with a lifeguard, bike, boat, and canoe hire; Podluka, with a children’s playground, parasailing, and a promenade the length of the beach, populated with cafes, bars, and restaurants; and the smaller Stazica, where they can play volleyball and jet ski. For your older kids, an adrenalin-rush water-rafting or kayaking on the River Cetina, quad biking over mountain ranges, and stand-up paddleboarding (SUP) may be just their thing. Let them try something new with a high-performance Sea Bob, or take a course and learn to scuba dive.
All the family will love the view at Omis from the skywalk glass-fronted platform over the Cetina River and canyon, where you can see the area’s natural beauty in all its glory. A Jeep Safari over the local terrain to discover the local flora, fauna, and traditional villages is a great family day out.

Can only recommend!
We have not regretted our decision to book Villa Boena. The house is fully equipped to a high standard and has an unobstructed view of the mountains. Beaches and shopping facilities are within easy reach. Gordon our host is perfect and really takes care of everything immediately. We can only recommend this accommodation and are planning to come again the next time.
