About this property

Villa Vedran with stunning views for relaxing holidays.

The Villa is located in the perfectly quiet and relaxing small village called Gornja Podgora, 5 minutes driving distance to the busy tourist center of seaside village of Podgora which offers pebbled beaches, a long promenade, restaurants and water activities. Nearest pebbled beach is in Podgora, 5 minutes driving distance from the property.

Villa was fully renovated inside in winter 2020/2021

Only 2 minutes drive to Biokovo National Park, the mountain that rises right out of the sea, with its peaks and lookout points that afford unforgettable panoramic views onto the Makarska Riviera and the area around Biokovo.

15 minutes drive to Makarska, a city of more than 15 thousand inhabitants that encompasses picturesque villages at the foot of the Biokovo Mountain. There is a ferry line which runs from Makarska to Sumartin on the island Brac.

There are plenty of activities within the region including white water rafting at the River Cetina near Omis and other water based activities.

The property is 2 and a half hour drive to Dubrovnik and 1 hour drive to Split.

Perfect 10 out of 10 Points
We stayed in the house for 10 days. Everything was perfect. Super clean and everything was in top condition. The landlords really thought of everything for us and were super friendly. The pool was great and the view over the sea is unique. Really 10 out of 10 points!!!!

Fantastic villa with amazing views
A well equipped and presented villa with amazing views and fabulous sunsets. Peaceful setting 5 minutes drive up the mountain from the seaside town of Podgora with its crystal clear waters. The owners couldn’t be more helpful and have invested and produced a great place to stay adding a ground floor and enlarging the villa to include a third bedroom, small gym and second bathroom since we last visited. Would highly recommend.

We had a wonderful holiday at Villa Vedran!
The villa was just as it appears on the website - beautifully presented and clean. We were met by Vlado & Danijela who have done an excellent job refurbishing this lovely house and they ensured we had everything we needed. The views from the villa are spectacular and there was plenty to keep us occupied in the surrounding area. The fig trees that surround the villa kept us supplied with fresh figs for breakfast! We had day trips to Makarska and Split (not to be missed). The only slight downside was the mixed weather we had which seemed to bring out the mosquitos in their droves! - we had the bites to prove it! However this did not detract from a lovely holiday on the Dalmation coast.

Lovely villa and stunning setting
We had a fantastic holiday at Villa Vedran and would thoroughly recommend it. The villa is very well equipped and very comfortable with all mod cons - we really appreciated the air conditioning! The location is just superb - gorgeous views over Podgora and across to the islands. It's the perfect spot for a relaxing holiday - a beautiful, tranquil location, but with easy access to Podgora. The pool was lovely and a big hit with our children. We were actually a bit surprised at the size of the pool as it felt bigger than it appears in the photos. Vlado and Danijela were very friendly and welcoming. We arrived late so they provided lots of food so that we wouldn't have to rush to the shops the next day, which was very thoughtful and much appreciated. We enjoyed trips to Makarska and Split, and would also recommend the Veza restaurant. We didn't eat out a lot as it was hard to beat the views from the villa's balcony. Just lovely!

Sensational
We just spent a lovely and relaxing 2 weeks in Villa Vedran in Podgora. The villa is really well planned and is spotlessly clean. We have been going on Villa holidays for roughly 20 years and this is one of the best we’ve been to for several different reasons. Vlado and Danijela were both amazing hosts. Communication was very easy and always prompt. Their recommendations for food, places to go locally and in Split etc were always spot on. They even helped me sort out a parking ticket which was very kind of them. Also the little details have also been thought through like having enough toilet roll, soaps and shower gels, salt, oil, charcoal briquettes etc. which are small but inevitably need to be bought if they aren’t supplied and they rarely are. The welcome hamper was also very classy and was much appreciated. The gym is really well equipped and there is plenty of outdoor seating. We spent a lot of time by the pool which is as inviting as the photos suggest. A car is essential but we did in fact walk to Podgora down some paths a few times. Walking back is a bit more challenging but only took 15-20 mins so is definitely a possibility if you are fit enough. Equally you can take a slightly longer route which isn’t as steep which only takes 5-10 mins longer. Podgora and Tucepi have good restaurants and we didn’t have a bad meal anywhere. This part of Croatia is beautiful and Villa Vedran was the perfect base for us. We’d be happy to go back there anytime.

Modern, Comfortable Villa with Breathtaking Views
Vladimir and Danjiela could not have been more friendly or more welcoming - from the introduction to the villa to recommendations for places to visit and eat they were the absolute perfect hosts in every way and very good company. The villa is modern, spotless and very well located, especially for those beautiful Adriatic sunsets. We especially liked sitting on the balcony at lunchtime or snoozing by the pool in the afternoon. The open BBQ was well used and there is plenty of beach & pool equipment in the garage/store. The mosquitoes can be a problem however so take plenty of repellent and invest in some citronella candles. The villa is in a fairly quiet spot yet quite easy to drive into Podgora (5 mins) or Makarska (10 mins) for local beaches, cafes, restaurants and supermarkets. There is also a 15 minute walk down to Podgora but it's not for the fainthearted! The Veza restaurant on the road to Makarska is around five minutes away and was really superb with excellent food very friendly staff and a great location. The Konsum supermarket has everything you could need including great value meat and a wide choice of local beers. The nearby Lidl is also good. We would recommend that you buy produce from the roadside stalls however as it is much better quality. Fresh figs growing all around the villa too. We would definitely recommend a trip to Bol on Brac Island either via the car ferry from Makarska or on a day trip boat from Podgora. Split is definitely worth a visit especially the old city palace behind the Riva promenade. Dubrovnik is a gem and well worth a day to explore. Not sure that we would recommend the drive up to the top of Mount Biokovo; it may be a breathtaking view but a 26 km drive along a singletrack mountain road with a precipitous drop is not exactly my idea of holiday relaxation!

Kroatien ist mehr als eine Reise wert
Überaus freundliche und hilfsbereite Gastger; auch andere Kroaten begegneten uns stets freundlich und hilfsbereit. Das Ferienhaus ist super 👍 einziger kleiner Nachteil ist die Erreichbarkeit. Die Gegend um Podgora bietet viele Möglichkeiten für Wanderungen und Besichtigungen. Strände sind auch sehr schön.

Et flott hus i et fint og stille område. Kommunikasjon før og under oppholdet var bra. Eierne møtte oss i huset ved innsjekking, og tok oss godt i mot. Leieforholdet gikk enkelt for seg. Huset var rent og ryddig, det samme var bassenget. God størrelse på alle soverom.

Erholung pur
Wir haben 10 Tage in diesem wundervollen Ferienhaus verbracht. Die Sauberkeit hätte weit mehr als 5 Sterne verdient. Alles ist in bestem Zustand! Auch der Pool und der Außenbereich sind bestens gepflegt und ausgestattet. Alles ist wie auf den Bildern. Der Ausblick vom Pool und vom Balkon ist grandios. Und an den Sonnenuntergänge kann man sich gar nicht sattsehen. Man merkt, dass Vlado und Danijela ihr Haus auch selbst bewohnen. Vlado hat sich immer um unser Wohlergehen gekümmert! Liebe Danijela, lieber Vlado, vielen Dank für eure Herzlichkeit und Danke, dass wir unseren Urlaub in eurem Haus geniessen konnten. Claudia mit Familie im September 2022

Excellent stay in Croatia!
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in villa vedran in Podgora. The villa was beautiful and very peaceful. Our hosts were super and available when needed. We had hoped to walk to town in the evenings to try the local restaurants but this is not advisable but is only a 5 min car ride down to the car park and you’re on the promenade. We dined in some lovely restaurants on the sea front and the sea was the clearest I have ever swam in. Croatia is beautiful and we would love to return one day.

Amazing place
The view from this house is amazing. It is located 200 meters above see level, so you see far. We enjoyed the pool, witch is cooled to 26 degrees I think, and the very nice interiour of the house Every room felt brand new, clean and pretty. The landlord was very nice and helpfull. At one time internet broke down, and after texting him he fixed it remotly in 10 minutes. Great service!

Spitzen Gastgeber und ein wunderschönes Ferienhaus
Super nette Vermieter die einem gute/viele Tipps für Ausflüge, Restaurants usw. geben. Das Haus und der Pool ist extrem gepflegt und sehr sauber. Alles entspricht zu 100% der Objektbeschreibung und der Blick vom Pool und vom Balkon auf das Meer ist überragend. Der Ort klein und überschaubar aber mit tollen Traumstränden. Sehr wenig los am Strand und super tolle Wasserqualität. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und können das Haus und die Vermieter nur weiterempfehlen.

Perfekt
Dieses Haus hat alles gehalten was versprochen wird, sogar noch darüber hinaus. Man merkt die Liebe und Hingabe in jeder Ecke des Hauses. Alles ist sehr sauber und wirklich sehr gut gepflegt. Die Vermieter sind sehr freundlich und geben einem das Gefühl wirklich willkommen zu sein. Es werden einem Handtücher, alle möglichen Formen von Hygieneartikeln und auch Putzmittel überdurchschnittlich ausreichend zu Verfügung gestellt. Auch sowas wie Salz und Öl inklusive kalter Erfrischungsgetränke standen schon bei Ankunft bereit. Alle technischen Geräte waren in einem Top Zustand. Wir haben schon viele Häuser gemietet gehabt und dieses war mit Abstand das Beste! Auch die Lage ist einfach nur grandios auch wenn der Weg beim ersten Mal etwas gewöhnungsbedürftig ist. Jeden Abend hat man auf der Terrasse einen wunderschönen Blick auf den Sonnenuntergang. Wir danken Vlado und seiner Frau, dass wir in diesem tollen Haus eine sehr schöne Zeit verbringen durften. Zusätzlich hat Vlado auch noch sehr tolle Tips für Restaurants und Unternehmungen in der Nähe. Welche wir sehr gern angenommen haben.

Schönes, sauberes Haus mit Pool und Ausblick
Meine 4-köpfige Familie hat sich in Vlado und Danijelas Haus zwei Wochen lang pudelwohl gefühlt. Die beiden Besitzer sind supernett und zuvorkommend, helfen bei allen Fragen, geben zahlreiche Sightseeing- und Restaurants-Tipps und umsorgen ihre Gäste auch mit zahlreiche Dingen des täglichen Lebens (Seife, Kaffee, Toilettenpapier etc.) zur freien Nutzung. Das Haus ist "blitzblank", fast wie neu, es fehlt an nichts, es ist gemütlich, modern, großzügig gebaut. Der gepflegte Pool ist an heißen Tagen natürlich das Highlight, dicht gefolgt vom Mega-Ausblick, der tatsächlich so kitschig ist, wie auf den Fotos im Netz. Wir hatten einen wunderschönen Urlaub und können Vlado und Danijelas Haus und deren Gastfreundschaft uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen. Danke! Heike und Swen
