About this property
APARTMENT WITH BEAUTIFUL PRIVATE POOL - 15 MINS FROM DUBROVNIK AIRPORT
Villa Oliva is a spacious two bedroomed self-catering mountainside apartment situated in Ljuta, just 5 minutes' drive from Gruda, in the Konavle Region of the southern most part of Croatia. A 15 minute drive from Dubrovnik Airport, it is recommended that you hire a car for the duration of your stay to enjoy all the surrounding area. However, we have had guests who have used taxis and buses during their stay and found it easy to get around and visit places such as Cavtat and Dubrovnik. Nestled in the mountainside, the villa features its own olive grove from which we produce our own extra virgin oil in a mix of three local varieties, and we encourage you to try some during your stay (complimentary!).
Villa Oliva is a comfortable 2 bedroom apartment. The upstairs floors of the villa are not occupied, allowing guests in the apartment to exclusively enjoy the peace and quiet of the property and outside area. The apartment benefits from the use of the outside area with the large private swimming pool with beautiful panoramic views right across the vineyards and pine forests of the valley, and stunning sunsets before dusk. A covered terraced area and a separate covered BBQ area (with large traditional BBQ) plus table and chairs and outside kitchen facilities are for the exclusive use of guests in the apartment. Complimentary olive and oakwood can be supplied on request for the BBQ.
The apartment has one double bedroom with plenty of wardrobe space, a twin bed room with wardrobe and a good sized bathroom with shower, bath and washing machine. The living/dining area has a double sofa bed, dining chairs and table with a TV, DVD player and free Wi-Fi. A small kitchen with a hob and oven, large fridge freezer and plenty of cupboard space.
Most of our guests enjoy dining al fresco during the hot summer months in the outside covered areas, and can enjoy watching the sun go down on a beautiful summer's evening. The barbecue area features bluetooth speakers for poolside music.
The pool has sunbeds, parasols and the pool area also has an outside toilet and a good shower by the pool. There is also an outdoor table tennis table.
The apartment benefits from a heating and air conditioning system throughout the property with shutters on all windows.
All beds will be made up for your arrival and bath and beach towels are supplied. The pool will be cleaned weekly but guests are asked to use the outside shower before taking a dip in the pool!
The Owners speak fluent English and Croatian.

About the host
Hosted by Andro Jakobovic
Our family have lived in Ljuta for many generations, where we continue to work the land for grapes, olives and oranges. We love visitors to enjoy this beautiful part of Croatia and feel a part of our small, rural community. We produce our own wine and olive oil which I am delighted to share with our guests to try. Living just up the track above the villa with my family, I'm on hand in case our guests need any help or advice.
Why they chose this property
The Konavle region is a rural area in the southern most part of Croatia with distinct character. A rocky coast on the south with mountains to the north, and a beautiful green valley in between. Villa Oliva sits at the top of the valley with beautiful views for miles around, whilst benefitting from being so close to the airport, beach resorts and Dubrovnik. A perfect place to enjoy a varied and relaxing holiday.
What makes this property unique
A unique opportunity to rent a two bed apartment with such a vast and beautiful outside space to enjoy. Two outside seating and eating areas with outside shower, outside kitchen and WC making life in the summer very easy to dine out "al fresco" style! You'll have perfect privacy, with no overlooking properties, nestled on the side of the mountain.
