Villa Esse

About this property

Located in Podstrana, between the famous town of Split, and the small town of Omis, stands Villa Esse; a luxurious 4 bedroom holiday villa that accommodates up to 8 guests and features a private swimming pool, sauna and gym. Contemporary in design, fully air-conditioned and spacious throughout, the ground floor features an open-plan living and dining area with floor-to-ceiling glass doors that showcase spectacular views of your private pool area and across the Adriatic. The decor is modern and fresh in tones of white and soft grey with accents of teal and warm wood, and there are mod cons such as a flatscreen TV, WiFi and a PS5 for guests to enjoy.

On the ground floor you’ll also find your fully-equipped kitchen that includes a wine cooler, Nespresso and microwave, as well as all the basics that you would expect for creating family breakfasts and wonderful evening meals. There is a separate toilet on this floor, as well as one of the double bedrooms, which features a walk-in wardrobe, ensuite bathroom with shower and a TV.

You’ll find a further 3 double bedrooms on the first floor, all decorated in the same clean, neutral tones as the rest of the villa, and also featuring walk-in wardrobes, TVs and ensuite bathrooms with shower. Two of the bedrooms open out onto a private terrace, complete with comfy outdoor furniture and pool or sea views - the perfect place to enjoy that morning coffee or evening glass of bubbly in peace and quiet.

If, for you, a holiday is no excuse to not stay in shape, Villa Esse has got  you covered! The lower ground floor offers a Gym with a treadmill, a punching bag, weights and a yoga ball. There’s also a TV down here to enjoy while you’re working out, a shower, and a Finnish sauna, for the ultimate in post-workout relaxation.

The grounds of Villa Esse are just as impressive as the interior, with a private pool with hydro massage, a sun deck area with 8 deck chairs and a lounge area, as well as a covered outdoor dining space with a traditional barbecue and a TV. The villa is completely fenced and equipped with video surveillance for your privacy and safety, and offers a garage space and parking for 3 cars. 

Villa Esse is situated in a quiet area above a coastal road along one of the most beautiful stretches of the Dalmatian coast. Just 250m from the beach, several shops, and restaurants, the villa is ideally located for both those who want to stay put, and those who want to travel further afield during their stay.

The whole region is well known for its gastronomy, and Podstrana is no exception. Dalmatian cuisine combines Mediterranean recipes with local and fresh ingredients, and in Podstrana you’ll be able to enjoy plenty of fish and vegetable dishes, risottoes, peka and pasticada, as well as fabulous prosciutto, olive oil, bread and cheese

The towns of Split and Omis are easy to reach from here, where you’ll be able to take part in all kinds of activities such as golf, tennis, canoeing, rafting and horseback riding. Split is a favourite destination for Game of Thrones fans, where you’ll recognise several famous locations from the popular TV show. Official tours are available - although you’ll want to book in early to avoid the crowds.This buzzing and exuberant city blends modern and traditional styles, and is the perfect place to visit if you want some contrast to the sleepier atmosphere of Podstrana. Inside the impressive Roman monument of Diocletian’s Palace you’ll find dozens of bars, restaurants, and shops to visit, and down at the bustling waterfront you will find fresh seafood served daily.

In Split you’ll also find the famous Bacvice Beach - popular thanks to its long sandy shallows and its close proximity to the city centre, where you can grab a beverage or do a spot of shopping. Another fascinating attraction to visit if you’re in the area is St. Domnius Cathedral, the oldest Catholic cathedral in the world, completed in the 7th century AD. For the best views of the city visitors will want to climb the Bell Tower and drink in the stunning panoramic views.
