Check out what our dear guest Wendy H.G.has to say for her experience with Villa Vicina and her holiday in Croatia:
„We absolutely lucked out with our villa. You can see the listing here and take my word for it that it is just as good, if not better, than the photos and reviews. It was right in the heart of the old town of Milna, beautifully appointed inside with original stonework and the outside space was just incredible – three levels comprising pool with outdoor shower and sunbathing area, outdoor cooking and dining area with sofas perfect for coffees and sundowners as well as more loungers and the upper level, a favorite with Hunter, with trampoline, table tennis, small play area and wicker seating. The house itself is also set over three levels with the top floor offering the most spectacular views of the bay and an outdoor, rooftop terrace.“
