From its glamourous setting to its endless selection of amenities, this sprawling villa on the eastern tip of Brač is a knockout. Inside, it’s sleek and whitewashed with a convivial open-plan living space, perfect for spending quality time together while the appointed chef of your group chops, slices and dices in the fully-equipped kitchen. If some pampering is on the cards, retreat to the private sauna before sitting down in front of a blockbuster in the media room.

Spend warm afternoons out in the garden – lie back on a lounger and listen to the waves gently lap the shore or splash about with your loved ones in the glittering pool. Should you fancy exploring a little, the picturesque Žirje Beach is a fifteen-minute drive away. Plus, Sumartin, a fisherman’s village that is a quiet idyll even in the peak period of the summer season, is only five minutes from your door.

As the day draws to a close, head back to your pad for homemade pizzas paired with wine from the on-site cellar. And when the sun starts to set, make a beeline for the hot tub – we think it’s an experience best enjoyed with a glass of bubbles in hand.
