Villa Lavanda

An absolutely beautiful apartment, with nothing missing that we needed and a few extra things that we didn't! The kitchen is very well stocked, has a great selection of plates and utensils. It also has a washing machine, which was very helpful with a young family. The view from the balcony was stunning, leading to astonishing sunsets and views over Split and Podstrana every night we stayed. The small selection of restaurants within walking distance were an incredibly pleasant surprise, and negated the need for a longer walk or drive into Podstrana. Check-in was a bit hazy, as we couldn't quite locate the owner, but when we found him he was exceptionally helpful. He'd even left beer and fruit juice waiting for us in the fridge!

The property manager was one of the most gracious, helpful and friendliest hosts I've ever encountered. The room was modern, and super clean. One of the best experiences in all of my travels. Very highly recommended!

We had a a most enjoyable seven days at Villa Lavanda in Podstrana. The property is in a quiet location and our apartment was very well equipped and furnished with a lovely view to the sea. The owner Zlatko is charming and extremely helpful making us feel very welcome. A word of warning the property is up a very steep hill which for the unfit may prove to be a challenge especially in hot weather. That aside we would have no hesitation in recommending Villa Lavanda

Very clean and modern beautiful sea views Big comfortable bed with mattress topper everything is brand new This property is at the top of a very very steep hill We didn't have a balcony which was disappointing but sunbeds and seats in garden area provided but no pool area to sit round Owner is lovely and helpful but make sure you communicate your arrival time as we were waiting in heat for some time and the property isn't named

This was the first time we had used an apartment rather than a hotel and we really enjoyed the experience. The owner, Zlatko, met us on arrival (at around 10pm), despite our flight arriving later than scheduled, and helped us settle in. As the nearest food store was 10 minutes walk away at the foot of a steep hill, he offered to come back the next day and drive us to the store so that we could stock up with food, etc. for our stay. At the end of our stay, our taxi to the airport was booked for 5pm and Zlatko allowed us to stay in the apartment till then, very helpful as it allowed us to shower and change after a very hot day before leaving for the airport. The apartment itself is modern, fully self contained with a large bed, shower, kitchen, table, satellite TV, internet and a west facing balcony with a beautiful view of the bay and the coast towards Split. The beach is accessible at the foot of the road leading to the apartment, a walk of about 10 minutes, and is a standard Croatian pebble beach. However, it is quite a steep road so, if you do not have a car, it can be a hard climb back up if you are not reasonably fit. Overall, we were very happy with the accommodation and would not hesitate to use it again.

The room looks newly refurbished and it’s lovely. Perfect view over Podstrana and the water. We were able to sit on the balcony in comfort and watch the sunset.

Had an amazing stay and the host is brilliant. I recommend this place.

Arrive late on Friday night but Landlord help us settle down and great service. Good apartment with everything new, everybody enjoyed.

we were warmly received by the owner with cold drinks for us and the children. I will definitely come back for future trips to Croatia.

Nice place to stay Spacious nice verander nice to whatch the sun set from Well maintained very clean
