In old part of town Split, just a short walk from Diocletian’s Palace, there is a fairy-tale house that you will fell in love with at first glance. We can say, you will be delighted with the exterior, which is probably one of the most beautiful and romantic we have ever had the opportunity to see. If you are far from your place and you want to feel like you’re at home, the villa will provide you a luxurious stay in traditional surroundings full of enchantment that only the Mediterranean can offer. The villa will allow you to experience Split as it once was.
This five-star villa has been completely refurbished in 2018 with exceptional care and detail. The family owned restoration followed the laws of the Ministry, Protection and Preservation of ancient Monuments. The villa has two floors, namely 70m² plus auxiliary cottages within the building, measuring 45 m². It is actually a two-storey house with two utility houses. On the first floor of the main house there are two bedrooms, bathroom and terrace. The ground floor has a kitchen with dining area and living area, large bathroom and small storage. There are two exits to the court, which is very practical, especially during summer days.
All the interior rooms are made from original stone of old house. Generally, owners wanted to keep as many original pieces as possible and blend them into a modern, industrial-style shade and design. The bedrooms are airy and relaxing as they should be. White in combination with pigeon grey prevails. Bathrooms feature retro tiles and a glass shower. The lower part of the house, however, is somehow darker because of this stone, but with the incorporation of an industrial style of lighting it has received some gentleness and a pleasant feeling. The kitchen is custom made.
In the room leaning on the house is the so-called - cave pool. This pool is actually a room where olive oil was stored in the 18th century. The whole room is coated with epoxy resin and illuminated by a starry sky. The special charm of the home is a 20m² garden with a table for dining. Garden can also be used as a private open-air cinema because there is big TV, and with a good movie, they can also barbecue and socialize. The garden is full of various plants, a fence of jasmine that smells irresistible, roses and succulents in barrels and olives over 70 years old. There is also lemon tree, wisteria, bougainvillea, hydrangea...
