OVERVIEW

Dream Villa is a very unique small sea front villa approx 9km outside of the beautiful town of Bol on the island of Brac. There is a beach and a cave one hundred metres from the property. Stone steps lead down to the beach. Brac is an unspoilt sun drenched island with one of the most beautiful beaches in the world, Zlatni Rat (Golden Horn) in Bol, within a short drive from the villa. The predominant impression of Brac is vast fields of olive trees and vineyards, ancient stone built walls, small country lanes and the scent of dry herbs and clean sea. Along the island are dotted old towns, villages and settlements of white stone houses, some covered with terracotta curved tiles, and the more ancient ones with large rough slates painted white, to protect the dwellers from the summer heat.

It is a beautiful island full of sandy and pebbly beaches, hidden coves with small restaurants offering simple delicious local food. It is a paradise for windsurfers and all those who like water sports. It is also a place of great traditions and culture being close to the mainland town of Split, which has 2000 years of history, the great Roman Diocletian's palace, a magnificent Roman Forum, Venetian palazzos & squares surrounded by sublime ice cream cafes, markets, galleries, antique shops, excellent restaurants and a lively night life.

 

The villa can be approached by an asphalt road along the coast from the west, except for the last 2km which is unsurfaced. If approaching from the direction of Bol town, the last 3.3km after leaving the village of Murvica is unsurfaced. Cars with high ground clearance will be most suitable for this road but guests generally report that cars with a standard ground clearance will be able to use the road. Going west from the villa there is a restaurant which is less than 10 minutes walk and two restaurants in the village of Murvica. Bol which is 8.8km distance has many bars, cafes and restaurants.

The villa is built for its ecologically-sensitive owners to the highest standard of ecological workmanship, with top quality insulation which keeps it cool in the summer and warm in the winter months. The villa comprises 80 square metres of living space arranged on one floor, with a small galleried area off one of the bedrooms, with the space for an extra bed and one additional sleeping place in the living area, sleeping five adults and one child as a maximum. 

Ecology

The villa is powered by solar heating and an additional generator. Plenty of clean water is provided from the outside rainwater tank for all cooking and washing needs and this water also supplies the bathroom and kitchen. Ten litres of drinking water are provided in the welcome pack, and all shops stock drinking water. In the summer, the sea breeze at night keeps the bedrooms cool, and the house is also cool during the day without the need for air conditioning. There are two portable fans that can be moved around the villa s required. 

Living and dining area

The ground floor is tiled with stone tiles, the special feature being a magnificent stone fire place made by the local stone mason from the original Brac stone. The living area is large and very tastefully and comfortably furnished with a 3.5 metres long sofa with upholstered seating. Mirrors and paintings add to the pleasant feel of the living room. There is also a storage space in the living room which is used to store clothes and other items of the guests. The kitchen has white hand built units and all the equipment guests may need. There is a gas hob, oven, fridge/freezer, microwave, kettle, toaster and a coffee machine, as well as high quality plates, glasses and cutlery and all the cooking utensils. Most guests will appreciate wonderful cooking facilities outdoors, this is the way the locals cook in the summer. The kitchen table sits eight persons comfortably.

Bedrooms and bathroom

There are two good size bedrooms on the ground floor, both with a hardwood floor and a double bed each, with bedside cabinets for storage. One of the befrooms has a small, galleried bed above the double bed, suitable for a child. Additional storage is provided in the living room, and in a separate storage room which is also on the ground floor. One bedroom has a full sea view and the second bedroom a partial see view from the window on the side wall of the house. The windows have a pull-down mesh which can be adjusted at night so that the windows stay open and the circulating night air provides cool breeze which makes sleeping comfortable. In addition, fans are provided. The bathroom is tiled with mosaic tiles and has a large walk in shower, WC, basin, mirror and a hairdryer.

Outside

Absolutely fabulous sea views and steps to a secluded beach. The living room doors open onto a large covered terrace which has all the kitchen equipment for cooking your meals outdoors: there is a hob, stone sink, small fridge/freezer and a barbecue grill. A large wooden table under the covered terrace  with a sea view in front  can easily seat eight persons. An additional table, in a quiet corner of the garden, can seat four persons. Outside there is another shower and more stone-tiled patios and sunbathing areas. There is also an extra storage area. The south facing garden has a traditional stone built wall. It comprises 1000 square metres (one quarter of an acre) mainly planted with vine, olive trees and Mediterranean plants, with stone paths and open or covered sitting/dining and sunbathing areas. Wonderful views of the sea and the nearby island of Hvar can be enjoyed from the garden and the house - unforgettable sunsets and sunrises, and all the wonderful shades of blue in between. Below the villa there is an excellent pebble and sandy beach which is very secluded and tranquil, and can be reached in a minute via the stone steps from the end of the garden. Just walk out of the house in your swim wear with a picnic and a book or a few children's toys and you are on an uncrowded, quiet beach! There is no public road to the beach and the beach can only be accessed from the villa or by a boat.

Along the coast just over 1km there is beachfront bistro and in the other direction the village of Murvica (3.2km) has a couple more restaurants with stunning sea views.

Perfect Holiday
Lovely house with private beach, located in a vinyard. Access is possible with a regular car, however there is a 4 km dirt road which leads to the property. Hosts are very nice and the house is amazing. We are looking Forward to our next stay...

Brac Island

Brac is the most accessible of the larger Dalmatian islands and there are regular and frequent ferry crossings which makes getting to Brac very straightforward.

 

The simplest connection to the island is to fly to Split and take the regular ferry crossings from Split ferry port to Supetar on Brac. The ferry port is a 30 minute drive from Split Airport but allow longer in peak periods.

 

Getting from the airport to the ferry port

You can hire a car at the airport and take it over on the ferry. One advantage of this is that you don't have to manhandle your luggage on to the ferry as a foot passenger.  Alternatively take a taxi to the ferry port.  The approximate cost is 35-40 euro depending on time of travel and 40-50 euro for an 8 seater minibus. There are several bus services that run from the airport terminal to Split main bus station which is next to the ferry port. These leave from right outside the terminal building and include a shuttle service run by Croatia Airlines. Typical cost of a one way bus ticket is around 5.50 euro per person. Local bus service 38 stops on the main road outside the airport and is a 50 minute journey into the centre of Split  It is about half the price of the shuttle services but does not take you as close to the ferry port and is much slower.

 

Ferries to Brac

The ferry from Split to Brac (car or foot passenger) takes 50 minutes and there are regular crossings during the summer (typically every 90 minutes). The cost of a one way ticket for a car and four adult passengers will be about €40.

The ferry timetable for the Jadrolinija line from Split to Supetar on the island of Brac can be found on the Jadrolinija website.


There is also a regular car ferry service from Makarska on the mainland directly to Sumartin at the south east end of the island (see Jadrolinija website line 638 for sailing schedule and prices). This crossing is convenient if arriving from the direction of Dubrovnik however the service runs only five times a day in peak season and we recommend booking in advance on this line. 

 

There is a fast catamaran ferry service from Milna on Brac to Split on Wednesdays. It departs from Milna  in the morning and returns late afternoon so is convenient for a day trip to Split. Both Jadrolinija (line 9602) and Kapetan Luka run this service. The crossing is 30 minutes. Details also on the respective websites. Around €6.60 with Kapetan Luka and less with Jadrolinija. 

 

Also convenient for day trips to Split is the daily service that departs from Bol in the early morning and returns late afternoon. Line 9603 on the Jadrolinija website. The crossing is one hour 10 minutes.

Transfer by private taxi boat

Private taxi boat transfers from the quay near Split airport to Brac island can be arranged.  Prices will depend on your destination on Brac, the numbers in your party and the time of travel but will typically be in the region of 400-600 euro. Ask us for a quote. Crossing times from 35 to 50 minutes depending on your destination on Brac.


Brac airport ideal for private jets


Brac has its own small airport near the town of Bol. Light aircraft can fly into this airport and there are scheduled passenger flights from Split Airport. Zagreb and Graz in Austria. Information on the Brac airport website.

 

We can arrange car hire from Split Airport. We can also organize car hire on the island. Scooters and bicycles can also be rented. The local bus company, Arriva, runs buses several times a day between the principal towns on the island. Timetables can be found on the Arriva website.

 

Split Airport

Split Airport is located to the west of Split close to the town of Trogir. It is 25 minutes drive from the airport to the ferry port in Split although you should allow longer in mid summer.
