Perched on the hilltop in the Rijeka Dubrovačka valley, this pearl of a home overlooks the beautiful turquoise waters of the Ombla river winding its way to the Adriatic. The 24-hour concierge service can arrange a private yacht from the marina below, or perhaps a wine and oyster tour – whatever floats your boat. It’s six kilometres to the charming streets of Dubrovnik’s Old Town, and the e-bikes provided will get you there without breaking a sweat. You might not want to leave your villa though, with those incredible valley views from the pool deck to soak up, plus a gym, private sauna and hot tub to enjoy. Inside, the decor is sleek with a minimalist Japanese feel. The ultra-modern kitchen and living room feature floor-to-ceiling glass doors which slide open to let the Mediterranean sunshine and sea breeze in. It’s the perfect space for cooking and entertaining whilst enjoying the beauty of your villa’s stunning setting.
