VILLA GODI STAR - SUMARTIN BAY, BRAC ISLAND
Sleeps 10 + 2 | 5 Double Bedrooms | 6 Bathrooms | Pool | Beach below villa
Villa Overview
A wonderful holiday villa tucked away on the exclusive location of Puntinak in Sumartin Bay,Villa Godi Star, a uxury villa with concierge, is a place to relax. The villa sits just above a pretty little beach so just a wander down the steps takes you straight onto the beach for a swim. There are five comfortable bedrooms and lovely sea views but the pool area is the real draw. An attractive pool has a colonnade around its one edge where you’ll fine a summer kitchen, stone BBQ and lounge area. You don’t have to move to relax here! But if you do want to get a bit more active, simply ask and the villa concierge can arrange for you to be whisked away to the nearby Island of Hvar, or Zlatni Rat Beach, or taken to the highest point on the island with mountain bikes and released down the hill in the name of adrenalin! They are of course more tame activities and excursions to partake of, but the point is that the hosts here are fantastic and can help make your holiday go with a swing.

The Bay & Beach Below – The bay below this luxury villa with concierge is idyllic – why not hire a boat and skipper and explore the coastline or visit other islands?
Location Overview
Escape to Sumartin… a speedboat transfer from Split Airport will see you arrive quickly at your villa, especially this luxury villa with concierge in Puntinak, since, like this one, most are right on the sea edge just around the bay from Sumartin town itself. Beautiful little beaches, colourful, bobbing boats and a handful of restaurants in the bay make this a convivial little place. With a car or boat, you can explore the island of Brac and there’s plenty to see but Sumartin and Puntinak are a joy for taking it easy and relaxing.
If you do want to get out and about, do explore the coastline full of pretty bays and beaches, old olive oil presses, Vidova Gora – the highest peak of the island – and its incredible views, and of course, the famous Zlatni Rat Beach. Bol is also a sublime day out.

An array of Concierge Services are available at this villa – they are supplied by the villa owner and are bookable directly with the villa owner on your arrival at extra cost (boat trips, transport, help and advice, and any cooking you request including breakfast and Croatian evenings!).
Great Home Cooking & Catering at the Villa
We’d recommend you try the delicious, traditional Croatian home cooking at Villa Godi Star. The pool side setting with the open fire, flickering its reflection on the pool of an evening and washing down fabulous Croatian specialities with superb Croatian wine from nearby vineyards, is one of the many highlights guests here rave about. Well worth taking up on this offer… Please note: Catering at the villa is supplied by the villa owner and is bookable directly with the villa owner on your arrival at extra cost.

Transfers
The villa owner is happy to transfer guests from Sumartin Port to Villa Godistar… this is bookable directly with the villa owner and we can arrange this for you on your behalf.
Hire Car at the Villa

Reviews
“Hi Helen.
What a wonderful place Villa Godi Star is.
The host Stanko couldn’t be more helpful. On call any time of the day.
Even picked us up from the wedding reception early hours of the morning from Bol, Mali Raj restaurant to takes us all home.
The Mali Raj is a fabulous restaurant in a beautiful setting under olive trees. It’s a must if visiting Bol.
Stanko and his girlfriend made us lovely breakfasts every morning, creamy scrambled eggs and fresh pancakes were the favourites. Freshly ground coffee on tap all day.
There are two good beach bars open till late, both selling hot snacks. One has more food options of pizzas and other dishes. All freshly made.
There’s a very good restaurant worth a visit above the beach bars. Some really good Croatian food and wine. Unfortunately, I don’t know the names of them but I’m sure Stanko will tell you. They were all walking distance from the villa in Selca.
The supermarket in Sumartin which you can cycle to or ask Stanko to take you to for all your food and drink supplies.
Some traditional Croatian food restaurants here too.
In all though we had a fabulous time and would recommend to anyone.
Thank you for your wonderful service too. I would not hesitate to use your company again.
We’ll be back to Croatia for sure, we just love it.
Regards

“Hi Helen,
Sorry for the delay in getting back to you, work has been crazy since my return! Holidays seem ages ago now!
We had a really wonderful time in Croatia and both villas were gorgeous.
The second Villa Godi Star was perfect! Stanko was the most wonderful host and looked after us so brilliantly. His breakfasts were delicious and he sorted us out kayaks and boat trips and gave us lots of helpful restaurant suggestions. Our rooms were cleaned every day and it felt more like a hotel than a villa, we really enjoyed our stay here and hope to return!
Thank you for organising a great holiday for us.
Best Wishes,
Rachel” July 2018
