LOCATION
We are just far enough away from the crowds, located over the border into the quieter Herzegovina region of BOSNIA. (New faster border channels were completed in December 2019).
Villa Olive is just a 7 minute drive from the beautiful beaches of Srebreno and Milini and the fabulous jewel of the Adriatic, the city of Dubrovnik. The historic city dates back to the 7th century with its prominent surrounding walls being a highlight for visitors. The walls have been a popular filming location for the fictional city of “King’s Landing” in the television series, “Game of Thrones”.
Our local, 13th century, walled town of Trebinje is a historic delight to explore. The piazzas and cafe bars nestled under the great “Platani” trees are a great place to people watch and enjoy a coffee or ice cream.
There is a newly opened Water Park and in the evening “Vukoje” winery, with a rooftop terrace and restaurant offers diners great views over the town and river Trebisnjica. The town has something for everyone.
Further afield in Bosnia, Mostar and Kravice waterfalls are a fun day out or why not travel further afield to the Fjords of Kotor in Montenegro.
Staying with us enables you to visit 3 countries in one visit!
Due to our location and no public transport, car rental is essential.
THE SPACE
The private villa is part of a small family resort and proudly commands magical views over the mountains and the valley to the Adriatic Sea. Villa Olive provides a quiet and comfortable ambience for those who seek some quality time with friends and family.
Beautiful mountain and sea views are best enjoyed from the impressive infinity pool (9mx4m) or Jacuzzi and extensive terraces with an area to BBQ, dine Alfresco or to relax on the sun loungers and outdoor sofas. Pool heating is included in the cooler months but in July and August it can be offered at £15 per day. The Jacuzzi is heated all year round to the temperature required for your comfort. Please note the pool will not be filled from end of November until beginning of April, as it is not possible to heat in the winter months unless requested.
Olive sleeps up to 8 guests comfortably with 2 Master bedrooms en suite and 2 further Twin rooms with adjacent bathrooms. Additional guest bed, sofa bed and baby cot available upon request. There is also a further WC and shower by the pool.
Living accommodation is modern, spacious and open plan, with air-conditioning, internet access, satellite TV and a DVD player.
All the above just 14 km from the Dubrovnik Airport and 4 km from the beaches.
GUEST ACCESS
The manager will be there to meet and greet you. However, for the late arrivals, a key safe is available, with code and contact numbers given after booking.
We have also designed a brochure that is updated annually, tantalizing you with ideas of places to visit, complete with maps and directions! Places that are a bit off the beaten track and that the regular tourist won’t know about. We have ideas and tips for excursions, beaches and restaurants and sporting activities that have been recommended by the owner or previous guests. Ideal pool-side reading!
The owner will not be on the premises whilst guests are staying but there will be a property manager to meet and greet you and answer any enquiries.
