Set in the small village just a bit back from the coast in the hills just 8km from the Unesco World Heritage site of Trogir, Villa Katarina is a well equipped traditional villa with spectacular views down to the coast and the perfect place  to escape from the crowds.

The house is newly renovated and has 2 double bedrooms and a twin bedroom (plus extra beds for 3 potentially).  The walled courtyard has a pool and BBQ for those alfresco evenings. Just a few minutes walk away there is a lovely little village shop for all your daily essentials and don’t miss a meal at the local restaurant – Konoba Donja Banda where they do a wonderful spit roast lamb.

There are some gorgeous places worth visiting while staying in this area. The medieval town of Trogir was founded by Greek colonists who came across from the Island of Vis. Today, there are numerous cafes and bars along the water front where you can sit and watch the boats in the marina and wonderful restaurants tucked away in its winding streets.  Split old town is worth a visit too.

Okrug Gornji on Ciovo is a great place to spend the day on the beach. And just an hour to the north the beautiful Krka Waterfalls make a stunning day out for all ages. Or if you like somewhere a little quieter and laid back Seget is closer and has some lovely stretch of beaches.
