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 Violeta 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 Violeta is a stunning one storey holiday home and a part of the small family resort. It proudly commands views over the mountains and the valley to the Adriatic Sea and provides a quiet and comfortable ambience for those who seek some quality time with friends and family.
The terrace of the villa is a room in itself. Sunbathe by the impressive pool or simply 'chill-ax' on one of the outdoor sofas enjoying beautiful mountain and sea views. BBQ and dine alfresco under the pergola which offers welcome shade from the sun. In the evening, sit back and relax, maybe with a cocktail and drink in the breathtaking views, whilst sitting in the heated Jacuzzi, great in those cooler months.
There is an additional outdoor WC and shower for your convenience.
The interior is a great space to ensure everyone is included in daily life. It is a modern open plan design, with simple white washed walls and local handcrafted furniture incorporated throughout the villa. Comfortable sofas, coffee table, satellite TV, Wi-Fi and air-conditioned throughout, all this with the most incredible views. There is a separate dining area with chairs for 6. A guest cloakroom is just off the lounge area.
The fully fitted kitchen offers you crockery for your dining requirements from a barbecue to a party supper, with a dishwasher to aid with the clearing up. There is a fridge/freezer with ice dispenser, plus an additional wine fridge to ensure your drinks are cold! Laundry facilities are located in an outhouse at the rear of the villa.
Sleeping 6 comfortably, each bedroom has built-in wardrobes, quality bed linen and the 2 Master rooms open onto the terrace and pool area, so you can wake to our stunning view each morning before enjoying a quick swim before breakfast.
We are located just 14 km from the airport and 6km Dubrovnik’s Old Town.
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 end of November until beginning of April, as it is not possible to heat in the winter months unless requested.
Please note Villa Violeta is part of an ongoing building development, light work may be undertaken on properties in the vicinity.

We have also designed a brochure that is updated annually, tantalizing you with ideas of places to visit, complete with maps and directions! Places that are a bit off the beaten track and that the regular tourist won’t know about.
