This was a beautiful apartment in the heart of Podstrana. A 7 minute walk to the beach and several restaurants, a 20 minute drive to Split. Sanka and Joseph were such hospitable hosts, we had everything we needed and the view from our room was incredible! Olive and lime trees lined the property and it was a great place four our family, 2 adults and 2 teen girls.

A great place to stay

We definitely had a pleasant stay at Villa Lavanda. The apartment was cosy, clean and up-to-date and there was enough space for all four of us. Above all, the owner of the place was a truly nice person and always willing to help if we needed something or had some questions. The location of the apartment was decent; nearest shops and beaches were within walking distance (although I would recommend to rent a car in any case). Furthermore, the view from the balcony over the sea and to the mountains was spectacular. To conclude, I would highly recommend Villa Lavanda if you consider staying in Podstrana area.

Good location and good price

Good flat with free parking. Good location close to the main street by car 2 minutes walking 10 minutes. Little bit up in the hill going down will be easy going up little bit need energy if you don't have car or old people with you. Close to the beach and super markets. Not far from split around 10-30 minutes depend on the traffic. The flat have everything you need. Close to Avere tour agency where you can have all tours from Podstrana highly recommend to try the quad and blue cave tours. One more bonus all beaches are free in the area even 5 stars hotels you can go for free just pay for the parking and seat if needed. Conlemani resturant was great near by in Le Maredian hotel good to have pizza was super good. The beacg was good also there. The beaches are all rock beach no sand beach so better to have good slipper or swimming shoes. Highly recommend the flat was very good for the family of 5 persons. I think it can accommodate 6-7 persons.

Ett mycket bra boende! Lägenhet var fräsch, bekväm och verkade helt ny. Sängarna var mycket sköna. Vi hade en härlig balkong med vacker utsikt över hav och berg. Värden var mycket trevlig och hjälpsam. I köksavdelningen fanns allt vi behövde för att laga en måltid. Vi är supernöjda!

This Villa is fantastic. The owner is so helpful and went out of his way to make us feel welcome. The Villa is in a great position and the rooms are amazing. We stayed 2 weeks and wish we could stay longer. I would highly reccomend this Villa and would love to come back. It was very clean and presented to a very high standard. The views are stunning and staying at the Villa just made our holiday perfect. Great host, great place and an all round fantastic place to be.

Kind host. Hospitality is great! Clean appartment with sea view. Cleaning is done every few days and towels, for me that's a huge extra (because I didnt't expect it for that price). Near the sea & supermarkets and a very quiet area. I would recommend it for sure to everyone who wants to stay near the sea, but wants a quiet area to relax to the fullest.

The Villa was modern and comfortable with sufficient amenities. The views and beaches were spectacular. Although the beach and shops weren’t far away you had to be mindful of the hills when you were walking back. These were quite steep, so any elderly or disabled people would struggle.

An absolutely beautiful apartment, with nothing missing that we needed and a few extra things that we didn't! The kitchen is very well stocked, has a great selection of plates and utensils. It also has a washing machine, which was very helpful with a young family. The view from the balcony was stunning, leading to astonishing sunsets and views over Split and Podstrana every night we stayed. The small selection of restaurants within walking distance were an incredibly pleasant surprise, and negated the need for a longer walk or drive into Podstrana. Check-in was a bit hazy, as we couldn't quite locate the owner, but when we found him he was exceptionally helpful. He'd even left beer and fruit juice waiting for us in the fridge!

Deux salles de bain. Stationnement inclus. La plage est à seulement quelques minutes à pied mais comme la villa est sur une colline, il est préférable d'y aller en voiture.

A great place for peace & quiet

We had a a most enjoyable seven days at Villa Lavanda in Podstrana. The property is in a quiet location and our apartment was very well equipped and furnished with a lovely view to the sea. The owner Zlatko is charming and extremely helpful making us feel very welcome. A word of warning the property is up a very steep hill which for the unfit may prove to be a challenge especially in hot weather. That aside we would have no hesitation in recommending Villa Lavanda
