LOCATION
We are just far enough away from the crowds, located over the border into the quieter Herzegovina region of BOSNIA. (New faster border channels were completed in December 2019).
Villa Ragusa is just a 7 minute drive from the beautiful beaches of Srebreno and Milini and the fabulous jewel of the Adriatic, the city of Dubrovnik. The historic city dates back to the 7th Century with its prominent surrounding walls being a highlight for visitors. The walls have been a popular filming location for the fictional city of “King’s Landing” in the television series, “Game of Thrones”.
Our local, 13th century, walled town of Trebinje is a historic delight to explore. The piazzas and cafe bars nestled under the great “Platani” trees are a great place to people watch and enjoy a coffee or ice cream.
There is a newly opened Water Park and in the evening “Vukoje” winery, with a rooftop terrace and restaurant offers diners great views over the town and river Trebisnjica. The town has something for everyone.
Further afield in Bosnia, Mostar and Kravice waterfalls are a fun day out or why not travel further afield to the Fjords of Kotor in Montenegro.
Staying with us enables you to visit 3 countries in one visit!
Due to our location and no public transport, car rental is essential.
THE SPACE
Villa Ragusa is a part of the small family resort and undoubtedly a villa with grandest panoramic views over the Dubrovnik Riviera. Located on the top of the mountain, it guarantees complete relaxation and privacy all set within breath-taking scenery. Sleeping 8 this villa really is a home from home!
Beautiful mountain and sea views are best enjoyed from the impressive pool (8.5m x 4m) or from the Jacuzzi and extensive terraces. Relax and sunbathe on the sun loungers with a sun-umbrella provided for shade or 'chill-ax' by the outdoor sofa area, great for pre-dinner cocktails or a game of cards. BBQ and dine alfresco under the pergola covered marble table & enjoy watching the sun setting at the end of the day. If you are not quite ready to call it a night then you could have a night cap and a little more ‘me time’ in the Jacuzzi.
For your convenience there is also a poolside shower & WC, no need to venture inside.
The contemporary design of the villa incorporates all the comforts of modern day living. The light and airy interior is beautifully decorated to a high standard, air-conditioned throughout and with satellite TV and internet access. Modern in style with local hand crafted furniture incorporated into the villa throughout.
The villa’s open plan lounge opens onto the pool and terraces, with comfortable seating, coffee table and a separate TV area. This area has sofa bed, coffee table with its own adjacent bathroom with shower, sleeping an extra 2 guests. There is also a further downstairs cloakroom/WC and separate laundry facilities are available.
The fully fitted kitchen offers you everything you need to prepare your meal from a BBQ to a dinner party with crockery to match, but most importantly a wine fridge so there's no excuse for warm wine! The dining table and chairs are placed so you can enjoy your meal whilst still taking in the view.
The two Master bedrooms have King-sized beds, fitted wardrobes and stunning en suite bathrooms with large walk-in showers and one with a bath. The Twin room opens onto a balcony with additional chairs for you to sit and take in the view of the Adriatic and has an adjacent bathroom with a large walk in shower. An additional 2 guests can be accommodated on the sofa bed in the lounge that has its own private bathroom with a walk-in shower.
Pool heating is included in the cooler months but in July and August it can be offered at £15 per day. The Jacuzzi is heated all year round to the temperature required for your comfort. Please note the pool will not be filled from the end of November until the beginning of April, as it is not possible to heat in the winter months unless requested.
The villa is a part of an ongoing building development, so light work may be undertaken on properties in the vicinity.
