Reviews

Well equipped villa in quiet location
“

We loved the villa, it was very modern with such a well equipped kitchen and two great areas for sitting out, the front patio overlooking the bay is particularly spectacular. Wonderful vistas from the bedrooms too. As a couple the accommodation was incredibly spacious, would easily suit a family. 

Our host, was really helpful without being intrusive. Her husband even took us up to the family olive groves for a short tour, very interesting to see and chat about their lifestyle and thoughts on island life.

”

About location:

“

Very well located, the villa is easily walkable from the bus stop (we came by ferry and bus, very easy) and local shops/restaurants. Pucisca is relatively quiet which suited us fine, a more than adequate selection of places to sit with a coffee, beer or to eat out, from fine dining via pizza to typical Croatian food. The shop tucked into the corner of the harbour had a great selection of produce and bakery goods. We swam every day just in front of the villa, chillier than you might expect but no problem for those used to British waters! Water was very clean and clear, plenty of small fish for company. We borrowed the available bikes to explore the bay, only a few km all the way round, and took the bus out and about, we didn't feel the need for a car. To be honest, we really rather enjoyed staying locally in the peaceful harbour - although this may have been a symptom of late season.

From booking through to the trip itself we really enjoyed the experience and would love to go back to Brac one day.

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.
