ACCOMMODATION

Ground floor

The air-conditioned ground floor is open plan and comprises a very large, two-part sitting room, fantastic kitchen, dining room, billiards/pool room and lounge, extensive wellness area with indoor whirlpool and a swimming pool, sauna, gym, laundry and the guest cloakroom. The impressive, cream coloured living room is huge and full of light, streaming in through the numerous, extra-large picture windows and there are white marble floors. The billiards/pool sitting area at one end of this living complex has a modern pool table, L-shaped cream sofa and a wall mounted TV and looks out directly onto the swimming pool and the sea. What an amazing space to relax and have fun playing pool! The main sitting room with three cream sofas and a TV opens out onto the sunbathing terrace and sea views. Every detail in the living room is stylish and adds to the pleasant experience, such as the modern lights and works of art.

The superbly equipped modern kitchen blends in well into the living space. It is equipped with a fridge/freezer, dishwasher, electric oven and hob, microwave, espresso machine, kettle, toaster, icemaker, cooking utensils and excellent tableware.

Between the two ends of the sitting room there is a dining area with a white dining table for 10 people. In front of the dining table is a floor to ceiling sliding door which makes a perfect frame for the magnificent sea view.

Villa Empress's indoor wellness complex is truly awesome. There is a whirlpool and a separate indoor heated pool in a beautifully set up room with exposed stone walls and large glass panes, so you can fully enjoy the sight of the garden and sea from the whirlpool and pool. Next follows a well-equipped gym with several pieces of apparatus and a Finnish sauna. A separate room for massage is available and the massage therapist visits the villa on request (extra charge).

In the laundry there is a washing machine, tumble dryer, iron and ironing board. However, all the washing and ironing is routinely done by the villa staff (extra charge).

First floor 

Five empress-standard double bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms with both bath and shower enclosures, individually air-conditioned and with underfloor heating are on the first floor. Each bedroom has its own TV. All the bedrooms have access to a balcony and have sea views. One of the bedrooms has twin beds which can be joined together. All other bedrooms have super king size beds. Top quality bed linen is supplied and will be changed on request. Bath towels are plentiful and are changed daily.  Safes and hair dryers are also provided in each bedroom.

OUTSIDE

Villa Empress has a large, sea fronting and gated garden of nearly one acre. The heated, outdoor infinity pool is central to the villa, size 9 by 4 metres and 1.35 metres deep. Its beautiful mosaic sparkles in the day sunshine and glitters in the evening when illuminated. Around the pool there is plenty of space for sunbathing, with eight sunbeds, a shaded cabana with a double matrass, pool towels, several parasols for shade and a pool shower. The outdoor dining table under a covered gazebo looks as if it floats on the sea. How magical it must be to dine outdoor with your family and friends, with a fresh, barbecued fish and meat prepared by yourself or a chef who you can hire through us (extra charge). Local wine is delicious - try the white, crisp and fruity Malvasia and the robust Merlots and Cabernet Sauvignons. The villa has a complete outdoor summer kitchen with a wood fired barbecue, fridge, sink and tableware. Mostly guests use this lovely and typically Croatian facility to do most of their cooking as it is very special and sociable preparing food outdoors.

The unique point of this villa is its shoreline, where there is a private dock for sunbathing and entering the sea. Steps lead from the villa garden to the sea, which is crystal clear and fantastic to swim in.
