About this house rental
The house is situated in the small bay of Uvala Račišće (‘Rach-ish-che' - good luck with pronouncing it:), 1 km (0.62 miles) from the center of Lumbarda and 5 km (3.1 miles) from the town of Korcula.
It consists of two 2-bedroom apartments, and we are featuring only ONE of them.
A notable advantage of our house is its peaceful location, surrounded by pine trees on one side. Just 50m (54 yards) down the road, you can enjoy a swim or snorkel along the rocky coastline. For families with children, Lumbarda offers two sandy beaches 1 km away, with the best and largest one named Przina on the southeast side of the village. The water remains shallow, reaching about 80m (262ft) from the coast.
Across Lumbarda lies an archipelago of 19 smaller islands, including two larger ones, Badija and Vrnik, featuring wonderful beaches and no cars. Badija boasts a 14th-century Franciscan monastery and church, with a recommended view of the cloister from 1477, showcasing gothic arcades and arches.
To explore these islands, you can rent a small motorboat locally or take water-taxis from Lumbarda village or the town of Korcula.
It's truly a unique spot for a summer family vacation, and in spring and fall, you can enjoy long walks around the island or bike rides along paths weaving through olive groves, fig trees, and local vineyards.
We look forward to hosting you! :)

This little place was surprisingly spacious and had everything we needed - two bedrooms, the second one with two beds - one for each of our children, two bathrooms with showers, a well-equipped kitchen and a spacious veranda with an amazing view, where enjoyed dining and relaxing. It also had a folding drying rack that was very useful for hanging up swimming suits & towels. The apartment had all these great storage nooks and seems to have been designed with the needs of vacationing families in mind. And we loved simply that each bedroom had access to the lovely veranda!
There were only a few downsides:
1. Only the two electric burners of the stove worked (the gas burners did not)
2. The main light in the kid's bathroom stopped working after the first night. Thankfully, there was a smaller light that did work, and it was sufficient for our brief stay.
3. We are not fans of non-stick cookware and plastic cooking utensils. It would be nice to have all stainless steel and/or cast iron pans and stainless steel & wooden spatulas, etc.
4. The apartment itself may need a bit of renovation/upkeep. For example, the refrigerator had a lot of moisture and the freezer handle was not firmly attached. If this and other such issues were attended to, then this would be an excellent summer house. It has great potential!
Also be aware that driving and parking on the island of Korcula can be challenging - the roads are narrow and are often at an incline. Drive and park very carefully!

We loved staying here! Nice property, responsive owner and we could walk to two great restaurants right on the water. Lumbarda is a quiet area on the island, great for low key relaxation.

A beautiful stay in Lumbarda
Fantastic village plenty of activities for my teen boy and calm & quiet for me and my partner.
The property was just right, all we needed was there and Ivana was extremely helpful in moments of needs.
I suggest this to families.
