Casa Vacanze La Villa Bleue

Sustainable, modern living meets the ultimate beachside location in unique La Villa Bleue, powered 100% by solar while still providing you with all the modern amenities you need. Dishwasher ✔ Washing Machine ✔ Air Conditioning ✔ Nestled in a secluded bay on the south side of Hvar island, down 4km track road, you will be greeted with the gorgeous Adriatic sea... and not much else. Medvidina Bay has only a handful of houses and 3 pristine beaches – back to nature, but at its most comfortable. -- THE PROPERTY -- La Villa Bleue is the perfect spot for a group of families or couples, and every small touch has been thought of to ensure a maximally comfortable stay for every guest. This property is new to market in 2021, so most of the interior furnishings, along with being a little quirky, are also brand new. Before we talk about the villa itself, we can't not first talk about the location. It really is as stunning as you see in the photos. The beach is really as close as it looks, and is a very quiet place even in the peak of summer. The villa features two terraces (one ground floor and one first floor) for you to soak it all up from. It goes without saying that this place is absolute heaven for kids and adults alike. Okay, let's get to the house! La Villa Bleue has four bedrooms, all with comfortable queen size beds and new, luxury sheets. The fourth bedroom is found on the property's third floor, the attic, which also houses an additional single bed. We can position another single bed in there if you are a group of 10. The attic also features an ensuite bathroom, and is accessed via an outdoor staircase. Behind the house, there is a traditional stone BBQ where you can prepare meals with fresh, local ingredients. Complimentary beach towels are also provided. “La Villa Bleue's beachside location and sense of true escapism will capture your heart and soul at once.” – Elisha & Matt, your hosts. -- GUEST ACCESS -- When we say secluded, we really do mean it. La Villa Bleue is accessed down 4km of dirt/track road that starts once you turn off the main road spanning the island, between the villages of Gdinj and Zastražišće. The drive down to the bay takes about 10-15 minutes. Sure, it's bumpy and windy, but this dirt road serves to ensure the beaches of Medvidina Bay stay quiet, even in the peak of summer. Only those who really want a slice of true, quiet paradise will reach this stunning bay! There is a large parking area right next to the house. And lastly, to make things that bit more convenient despite staying in a remote location, your neighbour (one of the handful of houses down in Medvidina Bay), Antun the fisherman, runs a small konoba (restaurant) on his sea view terrace. So just a few steps to reach next door, and you can enjoy fantastic local fish that Antun has caught that day in the bay, paired with his homemade wine and cold-pressed olive oil. To enjoy this, you will need to arrange with us in advance so Antun can prepare for you. -- THE NEIGHBOURHOOD -- Medvidina Bay is serene and tranquil, a true hidden gem on the island offering an experience like no other – pure peace and quiet, with the time and space to bask on the beach in the sun’s rays and breathtaking views. Antun's small "restaurant" next door is perfect if you want to stay in the bay for dinner. If you want to head elsewhere, the island is your oyster. There is a Family Farm restaurant in the village of Zastražišće, just a 10-15 min drive away, which offers incredible food and the best sunset views on the island – be sure to book in advance though! We have plenty of other recommendations for you that we are happy to share – some slightly closer to home in nearby bays and villages, and also out to Jelsa, Stari Grad, Vrboska, and in the lively Hvar town itself. From La Villa Bleue, the drive to Jelsa takes around 40 minutes, and to Hvar town takes around 60. -- EXTRA INFO -- Your hosts Elisha and Matt speak English, and Matt, being Polish, also speaks Polish. We live nearby and will be on-hand to help you with anything you need – organising day trips, restaurant recommendations, and even filling up the fridge with groceries before you arrive! All prices are inclusive of tourist tax. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Additional activities available at La Villa Bleue include: ♡ 121 or small group beachside personal fitness training (including boxing) with certified instructor, your host Matt ♡ "Bar School".
