Best Areas to Stay

Croatia villa rentals: the complete guide

The Adriatic coast pairs translucent water and walled medieval cities with more than a thousand islands, superb food and wine, and a shoreline made for boats. Our collection spans the Dubrovnik Riviera, the glamorous islands of Hvar and Brač, the Roman heart of Split, green Istria and the Makarska Riviera — each home chosen for privacy, comfort and full concierge service. For British travellers it is one of the Mediterranean’s easiest escapes: a short, direct flight, no time difference to speak of, and a long, warm season.

Where to stay along the coast

• Dubrovnik Riviera — the iconic walled city and the elegant villages of Cavtat, Zaton and Orašac, with grand sea-view homes and effortless island-hopping.
• Island Hvar — the most fashionable island: lavender fields, chic harbour towns and hidden swimming coves, ideal for summer.
• Brač Island — home to the famous Zlatni Rat beach and quiet stone villages, with secluded waterfront homes a short hop from Split.
• Split & Central Dalmatia — Diocletian’s Palace, buzzing restaurants and the best ferry connections to the islands.
• Istria — the gourmet north: truffles, vineyards, hilltop towns and a coastline often compared to Tuscany with the sea.
• Makarska Riviera & Korčula — dramatic mountain-backed beaches and vineyard islands for those seeking something quieter.

Getting to Croatia from the UK & US

The coast is wonderfully accessible. From the UK, direct flights run from London (Heathrow, Gatwick and Stansted), Manchester and other regional airports to Dubrovnik and Split in around two and a half hours, with the season strongest from May to October. From the US, the smoothest routes connect once through a European hub such as London, Frankfurt, Munich or Istanbul — our guide to travelling from the USA to Croatia breaks down the airlines, timings and best connections. From the airport, your transfer — private car or speedboat to the islands — is arranged in advance, so you step off the plane and straight into the holiday.

Villa amenities & services

Our homes combine world-class comforts with authentic Adriatic style: infinity pools and sea-view terraces, private chefs and gourmet kitchens, daily housekeeping and 24/7 concierge, chauffeured transfers and private skippers, in-house spa and wellness, and exclusive access to island experiences — yacht charters, wine tastings, sea-cave excursions and Michelin-level dining.

Why rent a villa instead of a hotel?

Privacy, space and personalisation. A private home gives you the whole property — pool, terrace, multiple ensuite bedrooms and the option of full staff — usually for less per person than several five-star suites, and far better for families and groups who want to be together on the water.
