QUALITY VILLA WITH STUNNING VIEWS, NEAR THE SEA, BEACHES, SHOPS, AND RESTAURANTS
Jasmine Villa is a gorgeous old stone building, in the Venetian style. It has everything you could want for a luxury holiday in the sun.
The beautiful property has been stylishly renovated by its English owners to retain as much of the Venetian character as possible, while providing some of the most luxurious and comfortable accommodation available in the whole of Croatia. It will accommodate 6/7 guests (with folding child bed). The villa interior has exquisite furnishings and fittings, so you can experience a holiday of five-star standard.
It is located in a quiet village just a few steps above a pretty, bustling quayside with its shops and restaurants, on the charming island of Vis.
The island was recently chosen for the filming of "Mamma Mia 2 - Here we Go Again" with Meryl Streep, Colin Firth and Pierce Brosnan. Our house was selected to accommodate one of the most important VIP's involved in the film (we've had to sign an NDA so we can't reveal who). But we can assure you that if you book the house you will be following in the footsteps of Hollywood.
The property occupies the prime position on the bay, so it has wonderful views over the bay of Vis which is a picture postcard setting. There is a beautiful monastery on a promontory at the far side, a tiny island in the middle of the bay, and of course the turquoise Adriatic sea. You can watch the yachts and fishing boats come and go, and enjoy the evening sun as it sets across the bay. Vis is blessed with some stunning sunsets and you will have the best position to enjoy them.
If you want to see more about the house and the island we have a film on our own site which you can find by looking for villapoolcroatia.
The great advantage of our location in Kut is that you don't need a car the whole time. You can walk to the quayside in a few minutes where there are shops, grocery stores, bakerys, bars and restaurants. Your evenings can be much more relaxing as you stroll around the bay deciding on your restaurant for the evening. Or you can "eat in" enjoying the balmy night air on our middle terrace with atmospheric lighting over the marble dining table.
The island of Vis would suit people who want a completely different holiday, dislike commercialisation, and enjoy really good food and wine. They may also have an interest in history (lots of naval history), sailing, diving (Greek, Roman and 16c/17c/18c wrecks), vineyards, ecology (said to be the only totally organic island in the world) and incredible ice-cream.
The island is one of the few genuinely unspoilt islands in the Mediterranean - no high-rise hotels or villa parks here - yet it has a sophisticated Dalmatian culture and excellent food.
There are three main villages on the island - Vis 'Town' and Kut are on either side a a fabulous C-shaped bay on the north-eastern coast, while Komiza, a tiny fishing village is on the far west side of the island. The mountainous interior is scenic, well worth visiting. There are great beaches near to all the 3 main villages, and a few smaller ones down the east and south coast of the island, near to Stoncica, Milna and Rukavac. There are both pebble and sand beaches on Vis.
Please be aware that Vis is a hilly island and both Vis Town, Kut and Komiza have several sets of stone steps, usually on the lanes leading down to the quayside or towards the beaches. This holiday is not suitable for anyone with walking difficulties.
The villa can be booked as 3 or 4 bedrooms (which includes the apartment). Please enquire for 4 bed villa. It is also listed separately on this website.
If the villa is booked as 3-bed, without the apartment, there may be other guests in the apartment at the same time, but this does not affect privacy in the main villa in any way. Apartment guests do not have any access to the pool or to the villa's terraces as they are on a different level with a different aspect and the gate is locked. The villa’s top terrace has the pool, sunbeds, and evening drinks area. The mid terrace has a huge marble table for shady meals. Lower apartment terrace is available if whole property (4-bed) is booked

A perfect spot for vacationing with friends (or family). The views were amazing and we appreciated having the pool. Our housekeeper Laura prepared a traditional Croatian meal which was fantastic.

Great house and location for your Vis stay
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Jasmine Villa. Great house, and location perfect for the nearby shops, boats, restaurants, and beaches. Spent our 10 days mixing activities (including cycling, swimming, snorkelling, boat trips, fishing) with enjoying time at the house and pool. Island is relatively small, but largely unspoilt by tourism. We would recommend as a destination- and Jasmine Villa a great place to experience it from.

Incredible house, apartment, and location!
What a fabulous house! The house has been completely renovated and is absolutely lovely, from the approach, to the terraces overlooking the bay of Vis and the harbor, to the comfy king-size beds.
I stayed at the house as part of a larger group. My partner and I stayed in the one-bedroom apartment on the lower level. The apartment is cleverly hidden away from the main house, is very private, and has a separate entrance and its own garden terrace. It is fully furnished and can sleep up to four, with two sleeping in the bedroom and two on the sleeper-sofa (quite comfortable, by the way). The kitchen has everything you could possibly need, including a full-sized refrigerator and its own washer and dryer (very handy).
Because my group had rented the whole house, we had access to the pool on the top terrace. What a treat to be able to jump into the pool after swimming in the Adriatic all day! The sunset views from the terraces on all three levels were amazing.
I also enjoyed the location of the house. It is private and quiet, but yet conveniently located within walking distance to restaurants, bars, and small shops.
In the mornings, we took advantage of a two mile walking trail, which loops around from the front of the house and ends up dropping you off right behind the house. A relaxing way to start the day.
The photos on the website represent the house, apartment, and location perfectly.
I will definitely stay here again and would recommend the house and apartment to anyone looking for a fantastic vacation stay!

Thanks for this lovely review. It will be really helpful for people who are considering booking. Yes if people are interested in taking the apartment on its own it is amazingly private from the main house, and also if people want to rent the main house without the apartment they simply wouldn't be aware o
If the apartment was in use.
Compared to many houses you rent, here you can feel it is owned by a private owner, and their heart and soul warm the house! From the very first second you see the house until the very last you can feel the host, you enjoy the hospitality and you could watch ships and boats roll in and out all day long! Vis in perfection!

Goodness! What a lovely review. Yes I think our hearts are in this house. We absolutely love it and we are thrilled when others love it too. We think it’s a very special place. We are so glad you had such a great holiday.
This house is even more beautiful in person. The location is ideal. Each room is very large with a King Size bed and views, and we loved the outdoor living spaces - the large corner table for lunches and dinners and the small table for watching sunsets. The pool is wonderful. We lounged, swam, and enjoyed amazing views. This place truly is magical!

I can’t say enough about this property. It was clean and the beds were comfortable and it was decorated beautifully. The villa was close to restaurants, a grocery store, and beaches. The directions on how to get there and what to do when we got there were easy to follow and accurate. We didn’t have any problems. It was really nice to be able to swim in a cool pool after an afternoon of sight seeing. We just loved it. The entire experience was top notch!

Beautiful Jasmin House
After lugging cases up steps only to find another lot of steps, then opening the door made it all worth it to the most beautiful spacious Villa, every room was as lovely as the next with the most beautiful view over looking the bay. We loved eating our dinner outside in the shaded dining area and cooling off in the lovely pool. The shops and restaurants 5 mins walk, with a yummy bakery. Every place we eat was wonderful the first restaurant down the steps is the very best. Near the port Dionis restaurant serves Gluten free pasta and was very nice. 10 mins to the right is a cute little beach unspoilt. We felt like we were in a luxury Villa and felt very special.

We are so glad you loved the villa! It is very new and some taxi drivers are still learning where it is. They are supposed to drop arriving guests above the villa so all they have to do is wheel their cases down a short little approach road. I’m sorry you had the unfortunate experience of having to carry yours in up the steps from the quayside. That shouldn’t happen and we’ll make extra efforts to ensure it doesn’t happen again.
But thanks for your lovely remarks about the actual villa and it’s gorgeous views.

Beautifully restored home with all holiday amenities in excellent location.
The house has a lovely pool and terraces, along with excellent en-suite bedrooms. The fixtures and fittings are high quality.
The location in Kut is an excellent base for Vis Town and the island - we had a great time.
(Note that access to the property means that it would not be ideal for someone with difficulty with steps or steep slopes.)
A great place - thanks.

Beautiful villa wonderful location.
This is not our first time in Croatia but it is our first in Vis. We were not disappointed! The villa was beautiful perfectly equipped all that you could possibly need. Each bedroom has its own bathroom with own hairdryer. Kitchen really well equipped all appliances that you possibly need. The villa also supplied pool and beach towels also mats and cooler bags for the beach. So thoughtful!
The location is perfect the only placed we have stayed where you really don't need or miss a car. Restaurants, shops, bakery all just a short walk. There is a beach just a 15/20 min walk away also.
Vis is beautiful, cobbled streets beautiful 14 century buildings and churches. There are many different restaurants to choose from all reasonably priced with local food and wine.
Jan was extremely helpful with ferries and travel arrangements we were met and taken to the villa with help on booking ferries.
Thank you for allowing us to use your beautiful villa and to experience Vis. We will definitely return again.

A beautiful house in a charming location. Perfect for a relaxing holiday!
All practical matters before and during our holiday in Vis were smoothly handled by the host and owner of the property. It was our first experience of HomeAway and it will not be the last.
The house is beautiful, well managed and highly functional with separate shiny new bathrooms for each bedroom. We felt at home right away. Having access to a pool was just amazing. The location is perfect with a wonderful view over the bay and the town of Vis. We had many nice meals in different restaurants in Vis, especially good quality fish and seafood. It was our first visit in Vis but definitely not the last. We already look forward to the next one. We can highly recommend this property.

This is a stunning, restful and magical place
We were bowled over by this house. It's location is superb with great views from all aspects. The house has very recently been renovated extremely well. It is light, spacious and beautifully finished. We particularly liked the bedroom arrangements which meant that each of the three coupled had a spacious self-contained area to themselves. We will definitely be back.

Spectacular villa
This was a real treat. A beautifully renovated stone house over three levels with lots of space to relax inside and out plus the added (and unusual for Vis) bonus of a pool. The position is wonderful with views over the bay and Vis town from all the bedrooms as well as the patios and lounge. We even had a view out to sea whilst showering! A good selection of restaurants and bars to wander to in the evening and a bakery close by for breakfast breads and croissants. Lovely for walking either along to the headland where there is a good little swimming beach or in the other direction round the bay into Vis town and harbour where there are many more restaurants and some nice little shops.
The villa is spotless and extremely well appointed with good quality furniture and kitchenware. All the bedrooms were en suite, very spacious with beautiful comfy beds.
I can thoroughly recommend this villa and would go back at the drop of a hat.

Wow - A fantastic villa in a beautiful location.
Jasmine villa exceeded our high expectations in every way! The property has been renovated with great care and attention to detail, and offers luxurious, well laid out accommodation, with amazing sea views. The bedrooms were all good sizes, with quality en-suite facilities; the beds were extremely comfortable, and there was plenty of storage space. The lounge/dining area offered large, comfy sofas and was well stocked with books and games. The kitchen was very well equipped, and plenty of indoor and outdoor crockery was provided. The outside dining area was a lovely, shaded spot where we enjoyed lunch most days. The pool area was immaculate, with quality sun loungers and further dining table and chairs; an added bonus was that pool and beach towels were provided. In our opinion the pool terrace offers the best views out across the bay and is by far the best place to watch the sunset!Vis is a beautiful, totally unspoilt island and was well worth the two hour ferry crossing to get there. We would certainly recommend this property to family and friends, and would definitely stay here again if we return to the island. The owners were very helpful and always responded quickly to our emails.Anyone looking to book this villa will not be disappointed, we had an absolutely fabulous week!

Stunning, modern villa in perfect location
This stunning villa has just been totally renovated to the very top specification. It was immaculate and is in a great location -- a 20 minute walk from the ferry port and with the best views in Vis.
It has everything you might need for a relaxing stay and is exceptionally well-equipped (right from the kitchen utensils to the full bookshelves!)
The rooms are modern and stylish, there is great outdoor space on both of the terraces, and it is such a bonus having a private pool with views of the sunset.
There are a number of good restaurants and bars within a short walk and the whole area is remarkably unspoilt.
We had such a relaxing week in this villa and would love to come back soon.

Best holiday yet
In our view this the best house, in the best position, on the best island in Croatia....you will not be disappointed!! The views across Vis harbour are phenomenal, the house is amazing and beautifully designed. We were a group of 5 adults and 1 child and rented 3 bedrooms for a week, there are so many little spots to escape to that we each felt like we had plenty of space at all times.
Our day would usually start with a dip in the Adriatic just below the house, a coffee in one of the great little restaurant/ cafe's in Kut Harbour and then the really hard decision...what to purchase for lunch! The little cheese/ cured meat stand just below the house in Kut is excellent, all local and delicious! The fruit and vegg available at the markets (in Kut and Vis) is amazing quality. We enjoyed so many beautiful lunches on the middle terrace, sitting at the lovely stone table looking out over the harbour sipping on a yummy glass of chilled local wine. The kitchen is excellent, it's spacious and has everything you will need to cook at home. If we weren't off exploring the island and it's beautiful beaches in the morning or afternoon then we were firmly planted on one of the deckchairs around the pool, occasionally looking up from our reading material to admire the view....pure bliss!
Jan was very kind to arrange Sara to babysit, so we had a few nights eating out. We can highly recommend Roki's, Lola Konoba (also an amazing bar and garden) and for something very special Villa Kaliopa. One of the best meals of the holiday was the little beach restaurant at Stoncica beach (Konoba Stoncica I think)...the octopus salad was spectacular! We loved Grandovac beach (a 15 minute stroll along the waterfront from the house) and Srebrna is definitely worth a visit.
Jan was an amazing host and went above and beyond to make this holiday the best one yet. Thanks for such an amazing week!! I just hope we have the opportunity to make it back one day.

Beautiful Kut House
We stayed at Jasmine Kuca for two weeks in early July. It is amazing.
Jasmine Kuca is a completely renovated house very near to Kut harbour. It has been both restored and furnished to give it an understated and elegant character that suits it perfectly. The beds are large and very comfortable, and the sizeable bathrooms are immaculate and (unlike a lot of places) have windows allowing them to be very well ventilated. There is plenty of storage space in the bedrooms. Every room has fantastic views out across Vis Harbour and waking up to see the blue of the harbour and the boats heading out for the day is a joy. The kitchen is well designed and has plenty of room for cooking and preparing food, and is very practical. The lower level of the house is open, the kitchen, living area and lower level terrace all forming a lovely living area. The terrace is shaded and the stone table set into the terrace is a perfect place for meals.
The house is very close to Kut Harbour, which is distinct from Vis but forms part of the horseshoe harbour that runs for a mile or so from the Ferry Terminal at one end to Kut at the other. The house is a short five-minute walk from local shops (which sell everything that we needed) and three or four lovely restaurants in Kut. It is a twenty-minute walk (or five minute cycle) down into Vis, where there are more shops and restaurants. We had a car on the island, which we were able to park on the road just above the house (the road is an old gravel road), which made getting around the island from the house very easy.
The house has a self-contained apartment beneath the lower level: this has no access to the house and is not noticeable (in any respect) from the house.
The house is wonderful: beautiful, comfortable, relaxing and practical. It made for a brilliant holiday and without doubt we will return.

A Croatian Idyll....
This property is stunning, with arguably one of the best views over the Bay of Vis. All the rooms have generous proportions, beautifully fitted out with a simple elegant style.
There is a choice of outside seating areas, offering shade or full sun, with ample space for large parties to socialize comfortably, whilst at the same time affording individuals the opportunity to retreat to a quiet corner, in this superbly designed villa. The pool is convenient for a refreshing dip on the terrace, although the real joy is to walk down a few stone steps to the waterfront of Kut and swim in the crystal clear waters of the Adriatic.
The Island if Vis offers unspoilt Croatian charm; delightful shady streets provide a tranquil contrast to the busy waterfront with an ever changing pageant of yachts & fishing boats. There is a wide choice of restaurants and bars to choose from.
My husband and I enjoyed the most relaxing week at Jasmin Kuca, and very much look forward to visiting again soon.

Something Special
One of the best properties on the island with breathtaking views. A fabulous stone house, with top of the range facilities, immaculately presented with a fresh design approach. The top bedroom with the exposed beams really feels very special, and the room with access to the pool is great for teenagers and sun worshipers! We ate alfresco on the private middle terrace with huge marble table on a couple of occasions as it is a lovely space, but with so many restaurants offering local delicacies and fresh, original food, we were tempted out most nights. We ventured a stones throw behind the seafront (both sides of the harbour) and found little gems, tucked away in a beautiful courtyard gardens. We hired a rib to jet off to the blue caves for a magical experience, and to Andros' Island for a delicious lunch. We had an early flight inbound which gave us the time to explore Split before the catamaran whisked us over to Vis. It is well worth exploring this ancient and beautiful place and finding the steps which take you up the hill at the end of the marina for a wonderful panoramic view of the city. However, Vis has plenty of its own charm and romance; providing that precious chance to escape reality and really unwind. Thank you for one of the best holidays ever.

Great Villa - Great location
Absolutely great stay at the villa last summer, The Island is fantastic and the position of the property, you could not ask for better. We stayed with another couple and given the layout this was ideal as each of us had the same floor layouts with large double bedrooms and bathrooms on each floor. The terrace on the top floor makes for a great evening venue to sit around and have a great dinner and a few drinks while you look over the water. I can't recommend a stay here m ore, fantastic spot and great re staurants on you door step with the water only a few steps from the front door. All up a fantastic holiday.

A beautiful house
This is a beautiful house on a beautiful island. The bedrooms have wonderfully high ceilings and windows directly over the water where you can read in the afternoon with no sound but lapping water. The top balcony is a great spot for sunset cocktails. The village has almost no cars so the kids can walk to the bakery for breakfast croissants. There are excellent beaches, both within walking distance and on a ride around the island and numerous good restaurants within a walk of the house. A final highlight was the people watching in the waterfront village square every evening. All in all, a terrific holiday.

Wonderful accommodation with peerless view of Vis
This review relates to a visit in July 2013, although we have visited this house on a number of occasions.
The house is beautiful and, being tucked away on the Kut quayside, in a superb location. It has a 'townhouse' layout, with a well-equipped kitchen on the ground floor, a large bedroom and bathroom on the first and second floors (the first floor also has its own terrace), and a living room and balcony/terrace on the third floor. The views from the balcony are fantastic. Personally I could stay up there all day. Location is ideal for local shops and restaurants, and the communal car park is a five minute walk away. Vis town is an easy walk or even easier bike ride.
The house was immaculately clean and well-maintained. The practicalities are very straightforward indeed and could not be easier. We have been dealing with the owner for years now and sorting things out has always been a pleasure.
I would recommend the house to anyone - and indeed have done. I think the best I can say is that we have been coming to Vis since 2005 and the house is the only place we look to when booking our trips.

Thankyou so much for taking the time and trouble to do this super review. We love the fact that this house attracts so many regular visitors, who return year after year. You must be one of the most loyal, so we look forward to arranging the next trip. Jan.
About the host
Hosted by Jan Stewart
We are a semi-retired couple, who found the island of Vis by accident...and realised it was one of the truly magical places in the world! We fell in love with the island and set about buying a ruin and then commissioning a local builder to renovate it. No idea how we managed it, but we did, and now the house is a delight.
We have several guests who come back to our house every year, and we also like to rent to people who are smart enough to find our own villapoolcroatia site and so have seen the extra pictures and our film.
Why they chose this property
We didn't intend to buy a house, but like many holidaymakers we amused ourselves by asking a local agent to show us what was for sale, and as we walked up the steps of this house we saw the view and we knew we had to move heaven and earth to make it ours.
