Villa Zaku

Description

Villa Zaku is located south of Split along Croatia's picturesque Dalmatian coastline just outside the town of Omis. This spacious villa enjoys magnificent views of the surrounding countryside and the mountains beyond from its large private pool terrace. Villa Zaku is set out over multiple floors with three good-size bedrooms accommodating eight guests in comfort.
Entering the villa from the pool, you arrive in the living room on the ground floor. With lovely terracotta-coloured tiles bringing warmth to the room and high cathredral-like ceilings, there is a bright and homely feel to the space that makes it a delight to retreat to. There are two seating areas, one main area with large comfortable sofas focused around a central flat-screen television, and another snug area with a smaller sofa tucked into the corner enclosed by dual-aspect windows that beautifully frame the greenery outside.
Stepping down to the lower floor and you are welcomed into the kitchen and dining room. With doors out the lawned garden and barbecue area, this room has a lovely open feel. The dining area sits in the centre of the space, seating eight guests comfortably, while kitchen cabinets wrap around the wall to the far side. The country-style kitchen is well equipped and has everything you could need to cook up a lovely homecooked meal for your friends and family. There is also a bathroom on this floor equipped with a washing machine, so any messy holiday mishaps can easily be taken care of.
The bedrooms at Villa Zaku are located on the top two floors. The first floor bedrooms are both home to sumptuous double beds and provide their own en-suite bathrooms for added privacy. All of the bedrooms at the villa are designed with clean white walls and rich wooden floors, with splashes of colour added through the soft furnishings. The final bedroom on the second floor is home to two single beds and a double bed and also offers an en-suite bathroom, so guests here don't need to travel far to get ready for the day. The double bed is set into the wall, creating its own private nook that is great fun!
Outside is really where Villa Zaku comes into its own. The 40m2 swimming pool is surrounded by a large private terrace lined with sun loungers and even boasts a hydro-massage system, so you can truly relax as you take a refreshing dip in the pool. A pool house sits adjacent to the terrace and is home to a sauna and shower room, adding to the spa-like facilities on offer at Villa Zaku. The pool terrace is partially covered by a sail-like shade where an outdoor dining area sits underneath, seating six guests - this is a great spot to retreat to during the heat of the day.
Nearer the villa, there is a shaded lawned area boasting another outdoor dining area to the front and an outdoor lounge area with an enormous stone-built barbecue and a further lawned garden to the rear. At Villa Zaku, you are certainly encouraged to make the most of the Croatian sunshine and embrace outdoor living!

#### Location
Villa Zaku is located in the small village of Naklice on the outskirts of Omis, less than an hour's drive south from the major city of Split.
Omis sits at the mouth of the Cetina River, and its well-known canyon is a hive of activity for adventure enthusiasts. Offering canyoning, ziplining, trekking, rafting, paragliding and more, the Cetina Canyon is a hotspot for adrenaline-pumping activities. If you are looking for a calmer way to spend your holiday, then the long, sandy beach near the centre of Omis is the perfect place. A rarity in Croatia with its sandy shores, this beach is the perfect spot for families, offering safe sea, sandy banks and even beach volleyball to keep the whole family entertained.
Omis is known for its old fortresses and churches, with the 13th century Franciscan monastery and Mirabella fortress being among the notable sights. A visit to the Starigrad Fortress requires a little more commitment as the climb up takes around an hour, but the views from the top definitely make the effort worthwhile. The town also has a well-tracked pirate history which has inspired a number of tourist activities, including pirate-themed restaurants and Pirate tours that are particularly popular with families.
Throughout Omis and the surrounding valley, there are a number of restaurants to choose from. Serving a range of cuisines, ranging from Italian to local Croatian to more global affairs, there is something for everyone to enjoy no matter your preference. Indulge in local cheeses, meats and seafood and feel like a true Croatian - why not pair it with some locally produced Croatian wine to create the full experience!
