We had a truly amazing time in a villa thats pictures do very little justice. Wonderful location, well-kitted out, beautiful pool area and swimming platform (recommend water shoes) and great support throughout. Massive thank you to Martina and Nina for making our stay so special.

Comfortable house in an amazing location!
We spent a lovely five days and nights here. The house has many indoor and outdoor spaces to comfortably relax both together and apart from other family members, and it's a short walk to the beautiful bay where we swam every day from a private platform. The pool is small but great for a dip after coming up from the bay. Martina was always prompt with responses, providing everything from a replacement umbrella to boat tour and restaurant recommendations. Should we find ourselves in Croatia again, we'd come right back here!

Perfect villa stay in exclusive bay on Brač!
If you book Nina and Robert’s villa, you will not be disappointed! Perfect location (away from busier tourist spots), impeccable communication before, during and after booking. The villa and grounds are far bigger than you can imagine. The bay is perfect and the neighbours genuinely lovely. Martina looked after us before and during our stay. She is such an asset to Nina and Robert. We can’t thank her enough.

Dalmatian Paradise
I was a little hesitant to choose this property because it seemed too good to be true. I thought there must be some catch. But the descriptions are quite accurate - the house is lovely and home-like, the location secluded and private, and the setting perfect. Everything you need -- a full kitchen and several fridges, a pool, close to the sea, lots of books and games, beautiful patio settings - to enjoy a group vaca indoors and out. The nearby village has a charming array of restaurants, and there are many activities to pursue. I would suggest having a rental car to get around to some other parts of the island.

A Dalmatian Getaway to Remember
We have long wanted to visit Croatia with our kids and due to COVID were at least a few years delayed on this goal. Finally this year we booked a trip together with another family, making us a group of 8 (4 adults and 4 boys, ranging from 6-12). We were looking for not only a relaxing vacation villa, but something with enough excitement for the range of personalities in our group. From the moment we booked this property to when we arrived, the communication from our host Nina was stellar, including a few inquiries we had about not only the property but things to do in the area. We also were introduced to Martina who looks after the house and acted as our concierge on everything from activities to dinner reservations while we stayed over. The property is a stunning villa with lush gardens, a lovely pool and three floors with bedrooms on each (5 in total). It also has several different areas indoors and out for gatherings either together or with smaller groups. Outside you will find a beautiful sun area around the pool, a dining area, a balcony with a Duboka Bay view and plenty of space for lounging, eating or enjoying company. The villa is extremely well stocked with everything you would need during a stay, including multiple kitchen areas, refrigerators, utensils and cooking items, even an outdoor wood stove! We found the space more than ample for our group of 8 and could be together or find privacy whenever we wanted it. The bay itself is a short walk down the hill and has stunning clear water with a sun/swim platform and ladder to get in and out of the water. We even had a private boat pick us up from the platform for a day trip to Hvar and other nearby islands. Overall, we had a wonderful stay all around at this villa and found both relaxation and adventure right out the front door whenever we wanted it. Thank you to Nina, Robert and Martina for making our Croation vacation the memory of a lifetime!

Wonderful house, great location and really nice people.
Our stay in this villa was a perfect experience. The rooms are plenty, the interior design is cozy and everything is spotless clean. The garden has lots of nice spaces and beautiful plateaus surrounded by plants and flowers. The pool is perfect for all day fun and relaxation and if you need some recreation you can walk a few steps to the most stunning bay with picture perfect turquoise water. In other words - We can fully recommend this wonderful villa.

Dreamy property
Me and my family loved our stay at the villa. It is a perfect place for your summer vacation. Beautiful location with a great house to match. With the pool, luscious landscaping and outdoor dining you will want to spend all of your time outside. The host also recommended a local chef who was a Rockstar at cooking and sourcing local ingredients. A must visit place.

What a gem!
Just returned from an amazing week in Duboka Bay. Firstly, communication from the very start was brilliant. Both Nina and Martina responded to emails promptly and answered all our many questions! We decided to get to Brac on the ferry. The taxi meet us at Split airport, straight on to 50 minute ferry, then taxi (via Lidl in Supetar) to the villa. Martina was there to meet us and showed us around the lovely villa, which feels more like a home. She gave us lots of info on the area, transport, food etc and was on hand for the whole time to help with anything. Always friendly, always efficient. It felt like having a local friend that you could just text with silly questions! The villa is very spacious and spread over 3 floors (lots of stairs!) The kitchen is extremely well equipped, we found everything we needed as we ate in a lot. Everything is spotless and the towels provided were lovely and plentiful. The pool area is lovely although we spent very little time there as the AMAZING sea is a stones throw away! We loved the swimming platform, which is quite large compared to others around, with enough room for all 8 of us. The water is incredible and the bay itself is quiet, breathtaking and unique. We spent hours in the water using the paddle board and kayak that belong to the villa. We also hired a double kayak, arranged by Martina. It wasn’t cheap, but worth it as there is exploring to be done! I would say that getting in and out of the water would be a bit tricky for young kids or anyone with limited mobility, but I know Nina is looking into possibly getting a ladder. We ate all our meals on the outdoor table, which is shady and cool when it’s hot! We didn’t hire a car, but Martina arranged for taxis whenever we need to into Milna (10 min drive and about £12.50 each way) to buy supplies, have a stroll and an ice cream or have a meal. Milna is quiet, lots of amazing boats and a chilled vibe. There are small grocery stores, great bakery and we managed to get all we needed. There is no air con in the villa and we did get hot. The fans provided as a God send. Unfortunately, there were quite a few mosquitos around this summer, which I believe is unusual, so we couldn’t really open up windows etc, but that’s just one of those things. It certainly didn’t stop us having the most wonderful time and I think we are all spoilt for life! A boat trip is a must! We hired a private boat that picked us up from the villa. It’s all so stunning. Recommend highly.

Wife and I stayed here for a recent trip to Brač . Location was perfect, host was extremely attentive and responsive/accommodating. Martina took care of everything we needed. We were originally on the fence but I can't say enough amazing things about this place and we are ecstatic with our pick. Can't wait to go back, thanks so much, Nina and Kym !!!

A Relaxed Retreat with Amazing Views
Two families with 5 teenagers thoroughly enjoyed a week-long stay at this lovely villa perched on the southwestern edge of Brac overlooking a crystal clear, blue bay. Nina greeted us warmly and showed us the house. We had local honey, jam, and olive oil waiting for us. We also took advantage of Brac's local wine production and had Nina provide some local wines for us to enjoy while sitting out on the veranda overlooking the bay at night. The house had everything we needed to enjoy ourselves. The kitchen is well-appointed and we used it to cook many meals for very hungry teenagers. There is an traditional outdoor oven/grill and we enjoyed a traditional feast cooked by a local chef arranged through our hosts. The bay is lovely with clear and calm waters. We enjoyed many hours in the bay on paddle boards and the kayak or just swimming. Nina arranged a day-long boat trip around Hvar and the Pakleni Islands that was a highlight of the trip. The house is conveniently located a short drive to Milna so that it is easy to pick up groceries, fresh bread or just go to town for a meal. Brac is a lovely island with many interesting towns to explore. We were very sad to leave and wished we could have stayed longer.

Ein Traum in besonderen Zeiten
Wir hatten eine wirklich tolle Zeit in Duboka Bay. 4 Erw, 2 Jugendliche, 2 Kids - alle hatten ihren Spaß. Das Haus war super, groß, geräumig, alles da. Draußen rund ums Haus Sitzecken, für jede Tageszeit ein Plätzchen. Und ein schöner Grillplatz. Klimaanlage im EG und 1. Stock, im 2. Stock aber nicht. Aber den 2. Stock haben wir nicht genutzt. Die Bucht ist sehr schön, in 3 Min zu Fuß zu erreichen. SUPs, Kajak - alles da. Wenig los in der Bucht, wohl auch wegen Corona. Und wir hatten für alle Fragen eine ständige Ansprechpartnerin, die alles gemacht, organisiert hat. Von Tipps für Restaurants bis zu Taxi. Luxus! In Summe: alles super! Gerne wieder!

Sehr Besonderes mit Liebe eingerichtetes Haus und Anwesen
Wir möchten uns sehr für den wunderschönen Urlaub bedanken, den wir mit der ganzen Familie mit mehreren Generationen, Opa, Kindern, Enkelkindern gemeinsam verbringen konnten. Es ist noch großzügiger als die Bilder das darstellen können. Wir hatten mit 9 Personen enorm viel Platz im Haus. Unsere Betreuung, Martina, hat uns toll empfangen und uns während des gesamten Urlaubes gut beraten. Das Haus ist wunderschön eingerichtet und lässt keine Wünsche offen. Die Küche ist super ausgestattet und wir konnten mit vielen Personen gut kochen. Es ist aufgrund der Geräumigkeit möglich sich an unterschiedlichen Stellen im Haus zurückzuziehen. Es ist sehr gemütlich und man fühlt sich sofort wie zuhause. Der große Tisch im Garten ist super, um auch mit vielen Personen gemeinsam zu essen. Wir haben es auch sehr genossen, uns einen Abend bekochen zu lassen. Tolles Essen und toller Abend! Die Bucht in der das Haus liegt ist das Highlight. Das Wasser ist türkis und glasklar. Man hätte studenlang im Wasser bleiben können. Das erst Mal, dass ich mehrere lebende Seesterne beim Schnorcheln gesehen haben. Mit dem Kajak und Standuppaddel waren unsere Teenager ständig unterwegs. Mit dem Fahrrad nach Milna und direkt im Hafen einen Kaffee genießen, ist in wenigen Minuten möglich. Rundum gibt es nichts, was uns gefehlt hätte. Wir kommen auf jeden Fall wieder. Wir genießen es, die Natur um uns zu haben und trotzdem auch im naheliegenden Milna etwas essen und trinken gehen zu können. Das Haus lebt vom Solarstrom, was wir sehr positiv finden, einziger Wermutstropfen ist bei heißen Temperaturen, die daher fehlende Klimaanlage - was sich aber auch in Kürze ändern soll. Für uns war das aber kein Problem. Vielen Dank für den schönen Aufenthalt und die gute Betreuung!
