About this property

With two pretty bedrooms and a sofa bed, Villa Orsolia sleeps up to 5 guests, though 4 comfortably.
Krilo Jesenice is a quiet resort between Omis and Split, so you will quickly arrive from the airport. The villa is a 10-minute drive up the hill on a very pretty narrow road. You feel so at peace in this lovely hillside location. There is secured parking for 2 cars. The outdoor area of Villa Orsolia is wonderful. There is a covered play area with a table tennis table for fun, a private 7m x 4m swimming pool, a sun deck with deluxe loungers and parasols, shaded alfresco dining with a barbecue and spectacular views all around. The outdoor dining terrace is delightful, with curtains framing the pretty vistas.
Huge doors open to the fabulous open plan living space. The decor and furnishings are contemporary, with incredible light flooding in. A squishy sofa can sleep an extra guest if required, and smart TV and PS4 are provided for your entertainment. There are a separate toilet and washing machine.
Upstairs is equally attractive with a master bedroom with a kingsize bed and TV and a second bedroom with twin beds. The family bathroom is immaculate and modern. This villa really is perfect for a small family. You can enjoy the tranquil location, the sea views, the amazing skies as the sun goes down and totally relax. In no time at all, you can be sunning yourselves on the amazing Duca beaches, enjoying a thrilling day on the Cetina River or visiting the fantastic towns of Split or Omis.
Villa Orsolia is located on the hillside in an old part of Krilo Jesenice. It is very peaceful. The town offers two pebbly beaches, but the amazing 5km of sandy beach at Duca is just 4km away. As well as the sandy beach, Duca has some charming restaurants, shops and a mini-market.
The scenic town of Omis is 8km from the villa. Omis has great shopping and is popular for its gastronomy. It is known as the ‘Pirate Town’ due to its location at the Cetina River's mouth and its history of pirates. The Omis Riviera is often thought to be one of Croatia’s best-kept secrets. The coastline is incredibly dramatic, with sharp, jagged mountains all around, contrasting beautifully with the turquoise sea. For a small town, Omis certainly packs a punch. Omis is brimming with ancient buildings and churches such as the 13th-century Fortress Mirabella and 15th-century Fortress Starigrad, also known as Fortica Fortress. The Omis Summer Festival is great fun with capella singing in the churches and pirate performances.
The incredible Cetina River can be reached very quickly from Villa Orsolia. It offers so much fun, in and out of the water. Thrill seeking visitors enjoy kayaking, rafting, canyoning, rock-climbing, ziplining and paragliding. It is very entertaining, unforgettable and will certainly be a highlight of your holiday.
Split's stunning town is only 18km away and offers visitors incredible architecture, fantastic shopping, and delicious food. The Diocletian’s Palace is a notable landmark built in the 4th century. It contains a military camp, the magnificent Golden Gate and a villa where the Roman emperor Diocletian retired. For the city's most amazing view, you should climb the bell tower of Saint Domnius Cathedral, which dates back to the 7th century. If you do not have much time in Split, you may want to take a walking tour with a guide to make sure that you do not miss anything. You can also take a segway tour. Split’s Riva, the pretty promenade lined with palms and charming cafes and bars, is fabulous for an evening stroll.
It is very easy to visit the islands of Hvar and Brac. On Brac, Zlatni Rat Beach is one of Croatia’s best beaches and adorns many Croatia posters. Brac Island is blessed with stunning scenery. The island is famous for its very attractive white stone. The White House in Washington is made from Brac stone. It is also famous for its ‘buhavica’ olive oil, cheese, wine, honey and wine. The Stina Winery on the waterfront at Bol is lovely and the Prosec, a little like Australian muscat, is delicious! Brac definitely worth a visit, as is the glittering and vibrant Hvar.
