If you're coming to Croatia, look no further- this is THE perfect place. We were so lucky to come here after another place fell through. Words can almost not describe how wonderful our experience was with Marijana and Robert. They are perfect hosts. And their place is spectacularly beautiful; inside and out. First, this house is perfectly appointed. Although there were only three of us, the house could easily fit a couple of families. We were greeted to a huge tray of fruit- pineapple, peaches and strawberries. The fridge was well appointed with water, juice, beer and soda. The beds are VERY comfortable and tons of hot water for showers after exciting days of zip lining or rafting. I have a problem with mosquitos and they provided "machines" to put in the bedroom if we had issues ( I wish we had those at home! They worked like a charm.) The kitchen has everything you'd need for any meal. The view from the kitchen sink window lulls you into a dreamlike state- the views are of a lush, verdant, pastoral, quiet that we don't often get in the US. It is difficult to imagine that doing dishes would transport you so- but it did- many times over!!! The bubbling of the pool, the chirping of the birds, the glorious setting sun, the heady scents of the jasmine and lavender...heavenly! Second, as I mentioned Marijana and Robert are perfect hosts. Villa Mosor can be difficult to find, at first. Robert met us at the nearest turn off and guided us in. They answered all of our questions and arranged for many one of a kind experiences. DO NOT MISS a dinner with Ivanka at her Konoba. We had the most luscious veal and potatoes cooked in traditional "pod pekom" style . (I hope I'm phrasing this correctly!!) Ivanka took care of us like we were her own- stuffing us full of brandy, food and wine. Our experience as a whole was just like being treated as family- Robert and Marijana were there when we checked in, and checked out. My husband took a fall at Klis Fortress and Marijana and the family came by with an enormous bowl of cherries to make sure he was alright. We are hoping that they will come to the US and stay with us, one day... A couple of side notes: you will need a car. We originally picked a place that was closer to Split, but found Villa Mosor to be better situated to "spoke out" to Dubrovnik, Split, Omiš, and Krka. When coming in, stop by a store in Omiš or Split and get your basic provisions. Although Omiš (especially) isn't that far away, it is nice to settle in and not have to go anywhere. The hot tub is quite captivating after a long day of travel and Croatian pastries in the morning- perfection! Our stay was absolutely perfect...you MUST stay here! I only wish we could come here every year. |
