Villa holiday rentals in Podaca

This house is a jewel with a soul – quiet, flooded with light, filled with quiet beauty. Every single room is a dream: high-quality, harmonious, designed with flair and loving care. It not only receives, it gives a deep feeling of security and arrival. The furnishings are high-quality, stylish and chosen with a noticeable attention to detail. Whirlpool and pool? Luxurious retreats with real class, which do not promise relaxation, but make it possible. Everything seems well thought-out, very well maintained and carried by soothing tranquility. And Ana and Josip? Hosts from another world – warm, mindful, sensitive and dignified. Your Peka, the freshly caught fish, the fine potato salad, your homemade wine - all gifts that touched us very deeply. Our little dogs were also welcomed with open hearts. This place has given us far more than time: memory, depth, gratitude. Something lasting. Thank you – from the bottom of my heart!

We had a fantastic stay in this wonderful accommodation right by the water. The pool, the view and the still water outside made the days flow together in a calm, almost meditative pace. The place is in a very quiet little town - perfect for total relaxation, although it might be a little too quiet for our 21-year-old. But we never got bored: we paddled kayaks and SUPs, fished, cycled along the coast and ended each evening with a barbecue dinner and an incredible sunset over the beautifully lit bridge. It's only 10 km to Dubrovnik's old town, which made it easy to get into more life and movement when we wanted a change. A perfect combination of peaceful nature, seaside activities and proximity to culture and history.

The house was wonderful - stylish and well thought out and also really homely. We loved the outside area for meals and chilling out and the owners had thought of everything to make it a really comfortable stay. Our 3 children, 15, 13 and 11 thought it was awesome too and they can be difficult to please 😂. Great location in a lovely village with a small supermarket a short walk away. Tomislav gave us great recommendations for local restaurants, beaches and islands to visit. We had a really amazing holiday.

Amazing Airbnb! The place was stunning. It looked exactly like it does in the pictures. The view from the airbnb is super beautiful and the little town is cute. The hosts were always very friendly and helpful. We felt super comfortable and would definitely stay here again.

I highly recommend Villa Paulina — it’s a fantastic place to stay. The villa offers a variety of outdoor spaces that are well-connected yet separate enough to give everyone their own privacy without feeling crowded. The pool, while not large, is lovely and well-maintained, with plenty of loungers for all guests. It’s conveniently located next to the outdoor dining area, which includes its own kitchen in addition to the main kitchen inside the house. This setup makes it really easy to prepare food and drinks without needing to go back and forth. The surrounding area is peaceful and beautifully scenic, though it is somewhat remote, so renting a car is essential for getting to shops and exploring the area. The hosts are incredibly responsive, helpful, and live locally. They personally check you in and give a full tour of the property upon arrival. They're always available to answer questions, help book excursions, or recommend local restaurants.

Marija was most helpful in checking us in and suggesting restaurants. and she went the extra mile by helping in getting a left behind item to us back in Canada.

Absolutely stunning place! Felt like staying in a castle or a really nice hotel that you have all to yourself! One thing to be aware of is for check-in. The address they give you is nearby, not the actual address of the place. Once you arrive, they will meet you and escort you to the place. This is to remove any confusion on finding the place. I would have liked to understand ahead of time that is what they were doing because it seemed weird when we arrived at the address and it was not what we expected. No big deal, just something to be aware of.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – Absolutely Wonderful Stay! We had an incredible time at this beautiful villa! The property was exactly as described—spacious, spotless, and even more stunning in person. From the well-equipped kitchen to the comfortable beds and peaceful surroundings, every detail was thoughtfully arranged to make our stay relaxing and enjoyable. The outdoor area was a true highlight—perfect for lounging by the pool, enjoying meals outside, and taking in the gorgeous views. It felt like our own private paradise. A huge thank you to our host, Nikolina who was exceptionally kind, responsive, and helpful throughout our stay. She went above and beyond to ensure we were comfortable, offering great local tips and making everything seamless from check-in to check-out. Highly recommend this villa to anyone looking for a peaceful and luxurious getaway. We’re already dreaming about coming back!

This is a beautiful, modern and well furnished and equipped house with the most stunning view.! 7 of us stayed in the house and had the most relaxing holiday, spending most of our time lounging on the terrace, dipping into the clear waters of the Adriatic and generally enjoying the beautiful surroundings. The small village has several beach coves and is perfectly peaceful. A word of warning …….we visited late May/early June and neither of the restaurants or the shop were open. The village is not in a bus route, so a car would be a good idea if you are visiting early or late in the season. Elisha was a fantastic host who went out of her way to make our stay enjoyable, arranging taxis and even allowing a late check out which was much appreciated. I would highly recommend this property.

Marijana was an amazing host, she responded to every query so quickly. She was so helpful recommending places for us to go, taxi companies, supermarkets, just everything. The villa was incredible, very clean, & comfortable. Lots of appliances, fridge space, boards for dining. She has just thought of it all. We came as a group of 8 girls & villa is more than great value for money! We will definitely be returning! Thank you ☺️

What a fantastic stay, the villa is better than the photos it’s a beautiful place, modern with an old Croatian feel. The outdoor oven being a real highlight of the trip, the pool area and the hottub all great. Bozo was unbelievable as a host, we say it’s the little touches make the difference and when I messaged asking if there was any coal anywhere win the villa for the fire, I received two bags at our door within minutes from his place next door, we also got extra check out time on our leaving days as there was a gap between the next guest. To say he went over and above is an understatement. Location is brilliant for Split, and Podstrana has been built up since our last visit to the area, both are within minutes and Ubers are affordable if you’re not driving or drinking. Split stole our hearts again and we would not hesitate the revisit Bozos place.

This place is beautiful!!! In fact, it was so perfect and beautiful that it was hard to tear ourselves away from it to go to the beach and see the sights. We did, of course, but Relax was a stunning place to return to. The nearby beach was also beautiful and very close. Nikolina was a perfect host. I would not hesitate to book this place if it is available!!!

Amazing, spacious accommodation with a lovely terrace overlooking the beach and close to all the local amenities. Super restaurants within walking distance and good recommendations from the host who were friendly and responsive. We had a fantastic time. Thank you!

This house is astonishing! It is very luxurious, with a TV/Cinema room, a playroom, a jacuzzi and sauna, a gym, a heated outdoor pool, a large outdoor dining are (with a TV!), and a basketball court. There is a TV in each room and, moreover, each room has a bathroom. The pictures that you see on the website really do not tell the whole story. I have stayed in various Airbnb apartments/houses in several countries - this one tops it all! Finally, the hosts are very kind and helpful.

Mario’s villa was the perfect escape for my group of friends. The home is tucked away on a very private street close to the main attractions on the island. Everything we needed was provided by Mario such as towels, soap, as well as plates, glassware, etc. for a meal at home. I highly suggest you book the private chef that Mario recommends - it wound up being one of the best meals of our trip, if not ever. The pool and backyard was perfect for lounging in the sun. I could not be more satisfied with our stay, it was truly an amazing experience that will not be forgotten. If you don’t rent a car, I would suggest bringing comfortable shoes as you need to walk up and down hill to get to and from town.

Ivica was spectacular from the start of our booking. He went above and beyond. He welcomed us to his lovely home that was beyond our dreams. The view was amazing. All the different hang out areas were great for our family. The hot tub and pool view blew our mind. Ivica and his family were so welcoming and gave us fresh produce from their garden, coffee, milks, and different food items. He was so accommodating and gave us great recommendations for everything in the area. I wish I could have stayed forever. I will come back again and recommend all my friends and family to stay. You won’t be disappointed with this home. Croatia stole my heart. I can’t wait to come back.

Dragica's place was so relaxing, private and peaceful which was just what we wanted. Everything was spotlessly clean with everything you need for self catering. Dragica made my husband a gorgeous and delicious birthday cake and left some wonderful fresh & homemade produce for us. The pool was lovely to cool off in the hot sun as the weather was perfect and the hot tub so relaxing in the evening. A very friendly and safe neighbourhood with shops and cafes within walking distance. We would highly recommend a holiday here. We thoroughly enjoyed our holiday. Thank you again Dragica!

A super nice stay in this house! Katarina is an incredibly hospitable and accommodating person, she will help out with everything you wonder and think about. She came with gifts, gave us tips and went out of her way to make sure we had the best vacation possible. Recommend to anyone who wants a house close to everything (by car) while getting a private super nice house!

We had an amazing stay at this villa. Looks just like the photos. Ivan is so welcoming he was there to greet us when we arrived. He was extremely responsive and helpful and even called to check in on us to make sure we got out ok. Would absolutely recommend this place!

Toni was very friendly and accommodating. It was late when we arrived yet he made the effort to meet us in person upon our arrival so that he could tell us all we needed to know. The accommodation was excellent. The view was spectacular and the apartment was modern, well equipped and spacious. The pool and recreation area (where the table tennis was located) was a great place to hang out after a busy day. I cannot recommend this place enough and will miss the stunning views. Toni was all you could ask for in a host.

This place is easily the best airbnb I’ve ever stayed at and I travel A LOT. You can’t beat the view and the amenities. The pool, hot tub and sauna combination was out of this world. The stone work on this house is so perfect and clean. We really enjoyed relaxing at Rita’s!

One of the best places we’ve stayed. The place was clean and spacious inside, but we spent most of the time in the beautiful outdoor area. The kids (8 & 11) played for hours in the pool and in the ocean and we enjoyed the lounge chairs. Vinko also gave us great restaurant recommendations. Would be our first stop on our next trip to Croatia.

A fantastic spot of earth!!! Being awakened in the morning by the birdsong, looking at the green hills, a quiet breakfast on the terrace, unwinding - the perfect place for this... beautiful also as a starting point for hikes - there are many hiking and biking trails in this area and nature is beautiful. The house very well maintained, clean, very large and offers plenty of space! A cat visited us every morning and evening! We were totally happy!

Stjepan's accommodation is exactly what we want, to feel at home and comfortable without compromises. All furniture, textiles, furnishings are brand new and represent high quality. The staff who maintain the house communicate quickly and well and keep the house in excellent order.
