Just fifteen minutes from the sea, this pet-friendly villa makes the most of outdoor living, with plenty of spots to lounge, gather, or entertain. There’s a pool to cool off in, a hot tub to soak under the stars, and a small children’s pool plus a playground for little ones. The countryside location feels wonderfully tranquil, yet shops and restaurants are a short drive away, or you can take the villa’s bicycles for a spin. Brijuni National Park is less than an hour away, making it easy to plan a day out if you’re in the mood for a little adventure.
