Home details
Villa is situated in the picturesque bay of Zaton, just a 10 minutes’ drive from the Pearl of the Adriatic; Dubrovnik. The villa is an exceptional private estate with six spacious bedrooms and private Mediterranean gardens with an outdoor pool and a private chapel. An ideal choice for families and groups of friends, the Villa can host up to fourteen people.
Built in the 15th century, the Villa was originally envisioned as a summer retreat for aristocrats, a getaway from the heated stone of Dubrovnik’s Old Town and a place to relax, enjoy and entertain friends and family. The main entrance to Villa Gomila sits at the deep end of Zaton bay, along the waterfront promenade. Stepping into the southern courtyard, its massive stone walls immediately resonate an exclusive experience and true privacy, an atmosphere quite different from newly built villas.
Furnished with outdoor sofas, the courtyard is focused around the staircase leading onto a very modern structure, the glass bridge, running over the courtyard in full length and connecting two outdoor terraces on the first-floor level. From the courtyard, enter the main house, comprising 580 m² of space spread over two floor levels. Typical local materials such as Croatian stone, tufa and top-quality wood, but also glass, dominate in the interior. Its clean and modern design lines successfully bring together contemporary minimalism, homey warmth and original historic details, some dating back to the earliest times, over 500 years ago. The stone staircase in the entrance foyer for example, or intricate stonework of library wall niches. Airy and spacious, the interior of Villa Gomila holds many unique corners, making everyone feel very much at home here.
The entrance foyer is the central space of the ground floor and doubles as a welcome area and a lounge. To the right of the foyer, two double rooms with bathrooms each feature unique elements, such as an exit directly to the gardens or the bench placed within an arched niche which was originally an entrance for boats. This area also holds a laundry room with washing machine and dryer. On the ground floor there is fully equipped professional kitchen, a cosy living room space with a fireplace and an impressive dining area, dominated by the massive, one-piece table made of wood and stone, suitable for 16 people. A historic staircase from the entrance foyer leads to first floor of Villa Gomila.
The central common area of the upper floor is library - formerly a salon, the library is an airy space full of light, with high ceilings, large windows and double doors leading onto one of the two terraces on the first-floor level. The first floor comprises 4 luxury suites, each on two floor levels and organized around the same concept: a comfortable lounge and a modern bathroom with walk-in shower and floor heating on the lower level, and a wooden staircase leading up to the gallery with a king size double bed. The true gem of Villa Gomila lies behind the main house. Completely secluded by high stone walls, its terraced Mediterranean gardens extend at over 1500 m² and are just incredibly fragrant, quiet and private. Enjoy the scents of typical local sorts like citruses, olives and lavender, as well as picking fresh spices for your meals from the herb garden. Coupled with the outdoor pool, an inviting, shaded lounge area and outdoor grill, the gardens are certainly the place to spend most of your time at. At the back of the gardens, enjoy a moment of serenity in the idyllic chapel of St. Jerome, an integral part of the property.

About the area
Dubrovnik, Croatia, is a mesmerizing city that perfectly combines history, culture, and natural beauty. Often hailed as the "Pearl of the Adriatic", its position on the Dalmatian Coast adds to its allure.
The city's Old Town is one of its most distinctive features. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is surrounded by imposing stone walls that were completed in the 16th century. Within these walls lie architectural marvels such as the Rector's Palace, a Gothic-Renaissance building that now serves as a museum; and the Cathedral of Assumption with its remarkable treasury.
The city walls themselves are a sight to behold. A walk along them offers sweeping views of the Old Town and the glistening Adriatic Sea. For an even more breathtaking view, take a cable car ride up to Mount Srđ.
For those who appreciate nature, Dubrovnik has much to offer. The Elaphiti Islands nearby are ideal for day trips with their stunning beaches and verdant vegetation. Lokrum Island, located just off Dubrovnik's coast, boasts botanical gardens and a peacock colony.
Dubrovnik's culinary scene is also worth exploring. Given its coastal location, seafood naturally takes center stage here. Whether you're dining at an upscale restaurant or a quaint tavern, you'll find an array of dishes that showcase traditional Croatian cuisine.
Cultural events are plentiful in Dubrovnik too. The Summer Festival held annually from July to August stands out with live plays, concerts, and games taking place in various open-air venues around town.
In summary, Dubrovnik presents an irresistible blend of well-preserved medieval architecture and vibrant culture set against a stunning seaside backdrop - truly making it a must-visit destination for all types of travelers.
