When it comes to truly restful holidays few things can compare with the tranquillity of an island and Mljet is a real gem, full of natural wonders and glorious vistas. This lovely villa nested rather majestically up on a hill overlooking the stunning sea views is an ideal spot for you and your family to base yourself and enjoy a wonderful stay.

We love the welcoming ambience and bright communal space, where everyone can find a snuggly place to relax. The villa features impressive original features, including stone walls and arches and beautifully preserved wood beams on the ceilings. Arrive and feel instantly serene thanks to the floods of natural light gently streaming in through the windows, reflected off the glistening swimming pool. Rustle up delicious meals in the bright and modern kitchen and share them with the entire party either at the elegant indoor dining table or outside by the pool where you’ll find plenty of room to enjoy alfresco feasts – there’s even a barbecue oven for those balmy evenings under the stars.

Head upstairs to find plush bedrooms carrying the promise of restful sleep – why not unwind with a luxurious bath before you retire to the land of sweet dreams. Wake up restored and sip on your freshly-brewed coffee while you admire the calming views and plan your day’s excursions.

The island had buckets of wonders in store for you – explore the natural park, filled with picturesque lakes and hiking trails or head down to the beach located a twenty-minute walk away. You can get lost in the beautiful pine forests which cover the island – they are among some of the best-preserved ancient woodlands in the whole of the Mediterranean region.
