Wow- what a beautiful villa and an amazing holiday. We are privileged to have been able to spend ten wonderful days in such a wonderful destination, with all the home comforts and luxurious extras. Nino and his family made us feel so welcome and were extremely helpful, even before we landed in Croatia. He kindly offered to collect us from the airport (a three minute car journey), which was very kind of him.
Once we arrived at the villa, we were greeted by Nino’s lovely wife, Raphaella and their son, Joseph. They are all so warm and friendly. Raphaella had prepared an amazing buffet for us-lots of homemade treats and delicious delicacies. The food looked and tasted divine. It was a very kind gesture and much appreciated after an early flight.
The exterior of the villa and beautiful gardens are stunning. It is such a vast area and plenty of places to sit, relax and entertain. The pool is larger than we expected and was always clean. Our children enjoyed looking for the three tortoises, who also enjoy exploring the lush gardens. The villa is huge, completely private and not overlooked. It very well equipped -everything was immaculate and high quality. The beds were extremely comfortable and there were plenty of towels. We were a family of 8 (four adults and four children). We had plenty of space and didn’t even use two of the rooms.
The village of Mocici is fairly quiet but has a well-stocked supermarket and lovely restaurant just a few minutes walk away. Cavtat is less than 10 minutes by car. We went there numerous times and discovered lots of lovely restaurants with delicious food. Every meal was delicious!
We were at a family wedding in Dubrovnik during our stay and all of the family loved Croatia. It is a beautiful country and the people are wonderful too. Nino and his family are fantastic ambassadors for their country and they made our holiday extra special. They went the extra mile many times and we are extremely grateful for everything they did for us. I would highly recommend this villa- you will not be disappointed. We hope to return some time in the future.
