This is a lovely villa and one which offers all the comfort, privacy and pampering you’d expect from a luxury villa. The villa has its ‘sister’ villa, Villa Joanna, adjacent to Villa Lucia, so both can be rented together.

Location Overview
The luxury villa is located on the edge of the Village of Skrip, Island of Brac, Croatia. Skrip is an ancient Roman village with a history stretching back more than 2,000 years. There is a small grocery store and outdoor café in town, a children’s playground and the island’s only museums -both the Museum of Olive Oil and the Museum of Brac, which includes Roman artifacts.
The Villa is situated about 1.5 kilometres from the coast as the crow flies and has a commanding sea view, as it is perched atop a hill, on a plateau containing the town of Skrip. The house genuinely has a coastal feel, and at night the entire lights of Split and mountains behind sparkle in the distance – it’s 8 kms as the crow flies from the villa to Split.
Local Area
- Beaches: The villa enjoys superb beach access. There are good beaches in Splitska (just below, 4 minutes’ drive downhill, walkable on nice footpaths leading down) and on the road to Supetar (11 minutes away) which has multiple beaches including beach clubs/bars. There is a marvellous selection of nearby beaches with easy bathing in Postira (8 minutes away). The piece de resistance is Lovrecina Beach (only 14 minutes away) – a beautiful, super sandy (rare in Croatia), beach with beach bar and restaurant. Lovrecina is arguably the best beach on Brac – competing in beauty with Bol’s Zlatni Rat which is 35 minutes’ drive away. Finally, there is the historic port and stone-working city Pucisca, which also has great beaches and is located 18 minutes’ drive away.
