Beachfront holiday rentals in Smokvica

The house and the nature around are otherworldly. The house is situated far from any civilization, and we've barely seen any neighbors during our stay, so it's perfect for people tired of the big city. But please note that you need a car in order to move around, since the house is 5 km from the nearest civilization. The house itself has everything you might need in terms of utensils and equipment, but is solar-powered, thus heavy electronics will wear the battery down fast. We were fine with 2 phones and 1 laptop, but it also depends on how sunny it gets during your stay. As to getting there, you also need to plan your trip around the ferry schedule, cause it's the main way to get from the island to the mainland. Zlatko is a great person, helped us get there, and left some treats for us. Totally recommend the experience.

The other reviews are totally accurate. Marinas place was magical. It was the best trip we’ve ever been on and it was the first with our 18 mo daughter. Marina gave us her milk for our baby! Marina was extremely friendly, funny, and had perfect communication. She did our laundry for us too!! (She even removed a tough stain from our baby’s shirt!!). We could not have asked for a better vacation or a better host.

A truly idyllic place to unwind. We had a lovely week of swimming, kayaking and relaxing away from people (the property can only be accessed by boat so it is very peaceful and quiet). The host was very communicative - we can definitely recommend and would love to return to this unique property again!!

Such a wonderful place to stay! The owners are incredibly friendly and helpful, even giving us a lesson on how to cook BBQ properly. They provide kayaks, perfect for exploring the island, and the peaceful surroundings make it an ideal spot to relax. The house is fully equipped with everything you could need. Truly, the most helpful hosts we’ve ever had! 100% recommendation!

We had an amazing six day vacation and would highly recomend for persons who enjoy being close to nature. Accomodation is basic but adequate, food excellent and hosts very polite and heartful. The island is beautiful and peaceful, the surounding waters pristine. We enjoyed long open water swims along the island shores, wetsuits made it very comfortable on the first week of June.

Stunning views! Beautiful garden. Comfortable home. There is no central AC as the listing describes. Three bedrooms have working AC units and one has a broke unit. We kept all the bedrooms. doors open and turned on all the fans and it was ok in the end. There are a lot of stairs to the unit so this is not a great place for someone worth mobility issues. However all those stairs mean you are close to the water, which was lovely. There is a nice walking trail in front of the house that is fun to explore, but the walk into town isn't very nice. Take the water taxi across the bay to the busy part of town instead. Vela Luca is very small and not touristy. We enjoyed the nearby Ice Age Cave. We had to wait about 15 minutes to for someone to let us in initially. But Silvia was very flexible about our leaving time which we really appreciated.

Our family loved this stunningly beautiful house with its enchanting views. Blue water beckons from every window, just steps away. The ever-so-inviting terrace meanders along the back of the house, just above the walkable seawall, which leads to small shops and restaurants a few minutes’ stroll away. The large, open terrace is made for outdoor living, with beautiful views from every angle. There is a private dock area below the seawall walkway; it’s a great place to nap or read and to use as a launch for the paddle boards and kayaks provided by Daro, the host. Daro is incredibly helpful and responsive and answers every inquiry. Our family enjoyed talking to him ( he is on site) over a coffee in the village. He really apoears to enjoy making sure that your stay is the absolute best that he can provide. The house is well situated for local travel: we had easy day trips to local vineyards, Korčula, Split and Dubrovnik by rental car. ….One of our best experiences.

What a fantastic location. Peace and quiet and the beautiful sea. Lovely hospitable hosts. Super friendly and genuine. The BBQd fish they bought us for lunch was the best we had ever had. If you want to get away from it all then this is the place to come. We stayed a week and didn’t use the car once.

Ivan is an extraordinary host with an amazing property. It didn't matter what we asked for or needed help with, Ivan went above and beyond to serve our needs. His home is an impeccable oasis, right on the Adriatic. We rearranged our itinerary, to stay here and are so glad we did. If you're even considering coming to the area, you need to stay here!

I came to spend a few days with my mother in Tafra's accommodation, it was a great Airbnb with an incredible view. The pool and hot tub are a real plus. The accommodation was very clean with everything you need in it. We can't wait to go back.

We had a fantastic week staying in the Penthouse! The views are incredible. The apartment was beautiful and is immaculately clean. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend. Toni was a fantastic host, very welcoming and even let us check in early. He was very responsive if you had any queries. Thanks Toni for a great week!

We were a group of 9 people. The location is fantastic. Very quiet and you can go directly from the villa to the sea. The house was very clean and looked as pictured. The kitchen in the house and also the outdoor kitchen were well equipped and had everything you need. We thought the grill and the pizza oven were great. The house is a bit out of the way. There are no restaurants nearby. However, there are plenty of shopping opportunities and they are easily accessible by car. The house is perfect for relaxing vacations.

Amazing, spacious accommodation with a lovely terrace overlooking the beach and close to all the local amenities. Super restaurants within walking distance and good recommendations from the host who were friendly and responsive. We had a fantastic time. Thank you!

We really enjoy our stay. Everything clean, modern, absolutely perfekt. The apartment, the view, the pool, ... . The owner was helpful and communicative. Last but not least, excellent conditions for charging our electric car. It was wonderful, we would love to come back.

We spent our family vacation with Peter. The apartment is very well located with a fantastic view from the terrace. The apartment was equipped with everything you need. Small pool with barbecue facilities and short distance to the sea. We will be happy to come back.

Everything about the house was great. However all local restaurants and bars that were walkable were shut until next year which we didn't expect. Also although their websites say the are open many supermarkets were shut on the Sunday - had we known in advance we would have bought more on the Saturday. These things aside - the house was lovely, clean and everything we wanted.

We spent an incredible 6 nights here. The views are out of this world. We loved the easy access to Sveta Nedilja's small but beautiful beach just below the house. The property has so many options for outside seating and lounging, and every corner is as beautiful as the next. We also loved the local restaurant, a 2 minute walk away! Marija is a wonderful, warm and kind host who made us feel so welcome. We cannot recommend this place highly enough!

We felt very comfortable with Antonija and her grandmother. They were very hospitable and everything worked out well with check-in and check-out. The spacious apartment, the terrace and the short way down to the water are just great. The mattresses were great. The kitchen is very well equipped with everything. There was even a sandwich maker and stirrer. You might want to know that the bay and the island at all are very quiet (we had a teenager with us, for which it was too little action, but well :) If you are there about Maria Ascension, you should know that there is a kind of village festival there and that went until 4 o'clock tomorrow with very loud frontal sound. But as I said, otherwise super quiet and very nice area. We recommend doing a big shopping for groceries on the mainland. On the island you pay more for everything. We had a nice time at Antonija's and can only recommend the apartment.

Exactly what we were hoping for. Relaxing, comfortable and private, surrounded by nature and few steps from the beautiful Adriatic. Grano was a wonderful host, warm, kind and super easy to communicate with. Thank you, Grano!

I cannot say enough about this Home. We felt like we were in a palace. Every little touch that they put into this house went noticed. I couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. Our host was always available if I had a question.The pizzeria next-door was amazing and would bring things right to us at our door. Again, we cannot say enough everything about this house was wonderful.

We loved the place! It was spotless and everything was in really good condition. Close to the beach, supermarket and winery. The kitchen was really well equipped and we were welcomed with a platter of meats and cheese and the fridge stocked with water milk etc, which made us feel at home right away. Would highly recommend, and it was great value. We would definitely stay again☺️

What a beautiful place in a beautiful setting. We were hoping to be in a location that was away from the hustle and bustle, but still conveniently located to shops and restaurants. This place was just that! The kitchen had everything we needed to enjoy meals on the terrace overlooking the water. It is walking distance to a market and the best restaurants in Lombarda. Our family of four (two adult children) had plenty of space to spread out. Marthe was very responsive to our questions. We would definitely stay here again!

We had a great stay at Milica's: she is very kind and attentive to her tenants! The accommodation is comfortable and what an exceptional view :-D The location is very beautiful, quiet but it is a little far from the attractive places of the island so don't be afraid to drive a little to get there ;-) But it's worth it once you get there!!!

Wow! This was a special trip for my 50th birthday, and it exceeded every expectation. Danko was the perfect host - meeting and accompanying us to the property in person, making us feel comfortable and welcome, even providing some fresh fish he’d caught himself! He was incredibly helpful and quick to respond to any messages, but otherwise left us in peace to explore and relax on our own. The house and bay are absolutely gorgeous - exactly as pictured. Decor is simple, stylish, and good quality, with the bathroom and outdoor areas being particularly lovely. We swam every day in clear, turquoise waters, amid some of the most beautiful views I’ve ever seen. Vela Luka is charming and laidback with a large supermarket (Tommy) on the edge of town which had everything we needed. I’d also highly recommend Jerolim for local souvenirs of olive oil and handmade soap. All in all, this was a dream holiday and we can’t wait to go back. Hvala, Danko! :)
