Villa Zariah

About this property

Boasting an idyllic rural location amidst the spectacular natural beauty of the Croatian countryside, Villa Zariah is a contemporary three-bedroom property with an abundance of Mediterranean charm. Situated in the peaceful hamlet of Kreševo, with the crystal-clear waters of Pisak Beach just half an hour’s drive away, the secluded villa is surrounded by lush greenery. It features a sun-drenched terrace with a private pool. The dramatic cliffs and historic Dalmatian town of Omiš are roughly forty minutes away by car, while the nearest shop, restaurant and bar can be reached within ten minutes, along with the flowing emerald waters of the Cetina River, where you will also find a pretty beach.

Begin each day with a refreshing dip in the villa’s private pool before sipping freshly brewed coffee and unwinding on a poolside lounger in the early morning sunshine. A comfortable outdoor lounge area offers the ideal spot for an afternoon spent reading by the pool, while the outdoor shower on the terrace is perfect for cooling off as you sunbathe. On a separate stone terrace, guests will find a dedicated outdoor dining area with a wooden table and barbecue facilities, where everyone can gather together to enjoy a delicious dinner at sunset. Later on, relax with a glass of the local wine in Villa Zariah’s unique stone lounge room, where you can take some time away from modern distractions and the stresses of everyday life to appreciate the rich cultural heritage of the area.

Upon entering the villa from either of the gorgeous terraces, guests will find an elegant living space with stylish décor and a contemporary open-plan layout. The bright and airy space features a welcoming lounge area with sumptuous sofas, a flat-screen TV and the warm glow of a modern fireplace, inviting guests to curl up and unwind after a day spent exploring the coastal wonders of Dalmatia. Adjacent to the lounge is a charming dining area where everyone can discuss the day’s adventures over a home-cooked meal. Also located in the open-plan living space is a sleek kitchen fully equipped with various appliances.

The lower ground floor of Villa Zariah features two delightful double bedrooms with king-size beds and flat-screen TVs, where relaxed, understated décor and views of the villa’s natural surroundings create a cool and calm ambience for guests. One of the bedrooms boasts a modern en-suite bathroom with a walk-in shower, while a family bathroom with a walk-in shower and a convenient laundry room are also located on this floor. Meanwhile, the villa’s first floor, a mezzanine, offers a charming twin bedroom with a flat-screen TV and a PlayStation 5, making it the ideal space for younger visitors to share.

With a picturesque setting, stylish interiors and an array of modern home comforts, Villa Zariah is the perfect place to relax and unwind with your loved ones while enjoying all the stunning Dalmatia region offers. 

Nestled amidst the serene natural beauty of rural Dalmatia, Villa Zariah’s idyllic location in Kreševo provides easy access to the Croatian countryside, the banks of the Cetina River and the sparkling Dalmatian coastline. With excellent hiking trails and a local shop and restaurant nearby, the area is ideal for nature lovers and those searching for a peaceful getaway. Here, you can enjoy rafting on the emerald river or go to Pisak Beach to spend the day relaxing by the crystalline waters of the Adriatic Sea. With a wealth of natural beauty on your doorstep and the vibrant city of Split under an hour away by car, you will be delighted by all this enchanting location offers.

Roughly twenty-seven kilometres away, visitors are unlikely to forget the majestic cliffs of Omiš, a lively coastal town with a reputation for being Croatia’s adventure capital and a fascinating history of pirates and fortresses! Omiš is a paradise for outdoor adventure seekers, with plenty of activities on land and water. Visitors can enjoy canyoning experiences along the gorges and waterfalls of the River Cetina, as well as zip lining above the river’s rugged ravine. The coast provides plenty of opportunities for sea kayaking, perfect for those who dream of an adrenaline-fuelled afternoon!

If you would prefer to keep your feet planted firmly on dry land, why not embark upon a challenging but enjoyable hike up to the Starigrad Fortress? Known locally as Fortica, it takes roughly forty-five minutes to reach this fifteenth-century hilltop fortress, where you can enjoy sweeping sea views. The Mirabella Fortress in Omiš is only five minutes from the town’s main square for a less strenuous walk. Built in the thirteenth century, this Romanesque fortress was used by local pirates for shelter and protection. Today, the fortress offers breathtaking views of the gorge and the town’s pretty harbour. Later, enjoy a leisurely meal at a local restaurant, serving traditional Croatian dishes such as cuttlefish risotto or Dalmatian pašticada.

The cobbled streets of Omiš are made for wandering on sunny afternoons. Here, you can visit the old town’s picturesque St. Michael’s Church before stopping at the Omiš City Museum to glimpse the town’s colourful past and cultural heritage. If city lovers begin to crave some hustle and bustle, the ancient sites and labyrinthine streets of Split are only an hour’s drive away from Villa Zariah.

For a day trip to remember, hop on a boat tour to the scenic shores of Brač, where you can spend the afternoon swimming on Zlatni Rat Beach or make your way to Pučišća, a town famous for its pristine white limestone buildings. Brač is also well-known for its delicious local delicacies and locally produced olive oil.
