We spent 2 weeks in Spiro’s beautiful villa and have to say it was the best equipped place we have ever stayed in all our travels. Spiro and his family were so kind and welcoming with every small detail thought of, from mosquito repellent plugs, wasp repellant coils to a fridge stocked full of fantastic homemade wine and liqueurs to a whole watermelon and Dalmatian ham and cheese platter. Spiro even arranged a cake for my daughter’s birthday at my request and provided a bottle of Prosecco to accompany it. His dad provided us with figs from their garden. It was heavenly.
The beds were so comfortable, the pool spotlessly clean and the hot tub a welcome treat in which to watch the sun set over the mountains with a glass of wine. You do need a car to get to restaurants and supermarkets but we liked staying away from the hub of the coast in a local mountain village with all its charms. In any event a 20 minute drive gets you to the beach and plenty of places to eat. As well as the beach (we loved Brela in particular which was a 45 minute drive) we visited Omis for canoeing and zip lining, Salina for Roman ruins, Kliss fortress (for Game of Thrones fans), Trogir and even went to Brac Island by ferry. Spiro and his lovely daughter Stela also took us out on a boat to Ciovo island for swimming, lunch and beaches, all only for the price of their lunch. We spent 3 nights in Split at the end of our stay with Spiro but all the city’s delights can also be sampled in a half hour drive from the villa. Do not hesitate to book, you will love the villa, Spiro and his beautiful family. Hvala!
