About this property
Perched fewer than 80m from the beach and boasting stunning views of the Adriatic Sea, Villa Gisou is well-situated in the picturesque coastal haven of Podaca, Croatia. This exquisite 3-bedroom villa, harmoniously accommodating up to 8 guests, seamlessly blends modern elegance with the timeless charm of the Dalmatian coast.
Stepping into Villa Gisou, guests are greeted by the sense of serenity emanating from the spacious and airy living room, adorned with contemporary furnishings and large windows inviting floods of natural light and breathtaking water views. A convertible sofa bed provides an extra bed for two further guests.
The open-plan design effortlessly connects the living space to the well-appointed kitchen, where gleaming countertops and state-of-the-art appliances await culinary enthusiasts. Whether tossing together a Mediterranean salad or preparing a holiday feast for family and friends, this kitchen is well-equipped.
Ascending the stairs reveals three elegantly decorated bedrooms, each boasting king-sized beds, large closets, ensuites with walk-in showers, and spectacular sea views. The upper floor also includes a north-facing terrace and garden.
In Villa Gisou’s stunning outdoor spaces, its magic takes effect. A sun-drenched infinity pool beckons for lazy afternoons spent basking in the Mediterranean sun. Alfresco dining becomes a sublime experience in the shaded outdoor area, with a barbecue grill for sizzling seaside feasts. The villa’s outdoor spaces seamlessly merge with the interiors, creating a fluid connection between the lush surroundings and the elegant living spaces.
Whether unwinding with a glass of local wine on the terrace or enjoying the sea breeze from the comfort of the living room, Villa Gisou epitomizes the quintessential Croatian retreat, where modern luxury meets the timeless allure of the Adriatic coastline. Immerse yourself in the beauty of Podaca and create lasting memories in this coastal haven that seamlessly marries sophistication with the laid-back charm of the Dalmatian coast.
Set like a gem just north of the charming seaside resort of Podaca, Villa Gisou is ideally situated to enjoy the glory of this famous coastline. Surrounded by the crystalline waters of the Adriatic Sea, Podaca beckons with its pristine pebble beaches, inviting travellers to bask in the Mediterranean sun. A stroll along the charming seaside promenade reveals an array of supermarkets, quaint cafes and local eateries where you can savour the rich flavours of Dalmatian cuisine.
A 30-minute drive from the villa brings guests to the seaside resort town of Makarska (which gives this stretch of coastline between Split and Dubrovnik its name). Over the years, Makarska has been occupied by the Romans, Ottomans, Venetians, French and Viennese, all of whom were undoubtedly attracted by the port’s half-moon bay.
Make sure to check out the Biokovo Nature Reserve, which rises precipitously above the Makarska Riviera. The unspoiled heights can be explored easily on foot but benefit from a guided tour. With the Dalmatian coastline spread out below, Croatia’s second-highest summit offers unbeatable views and a variety of flora and fauna.
