About this villa rental
Location
THE SPOT resides on the beachfront, nestled in a private Mediterranean garden spreading over more than 1,000 square metres at the end of one of the most beautiful beaches of Central Dalmatian mainland, in the quiet and charming coastal village of Zaostrog on Makarska Riviera, half way between Split and Dubrovnik. Visitors to Dalmatia often head straight to the islands, but Makarska Riviera is home to some of the country’s loveliest stretches of beach.
Zaostrog encircles a deep sheltered bay with the dramatic Viter Peak (770 metres), a part of Mount Biokovo, at its back, sheltering the village from harsher inland climate. The main draw here is the magnificent shingle beach, which shelves into the clear waters of the Adriatic Sea. Zaostrog’s beach is a long, curving stretch of pebble backed by a shaded walkway populated by several cafés, restaurants and ice-cream parlours.
Property
This beautifully designed property, furnished to a high standard, suits the more discerning customer looking to experience the charm of the unspoilt Mediterranean, yet is within easy access of some of Dalmatia’s hottest locations, like Split and Makarska, Hvar and Dubrovnik, or the Adriatic islands, as well as the best restaurants and tourist activities Central Dalmatia has to offer.
Set on an exquisite long pebble beach extending directly along its front, the villa offers a breathtaking panoramic view of Mount Biokovo and a distant view of Pelješac Peninsula and most famous Croatian islands of Korčula, Hvar and Brač.
The villa is surrounded by terraced gardens on different levels furnished for outdoor dining and leisure. A separate BBQ House at the back has an open fireplace and yet another intimate dining area.
The entire property is fenced and child-friendly.
Natural drinking water straight from the mountains is available at a nearby spring located just next to the property, only a minute’s walking distance from the house.
Architecture & Design
Designed by legendary Ivo Vitic, one of the fathers of Croatian postmodern architecture, THE SPOT is a prime example of early 1960 Dalmatian modernist architecture. This architectural jewel, fully renovated in 2014 and furnished with authentic pieces and artwork, is without a doubt one of the finest properties available to rent in the area.
Accommodation
THE SPOT is ideal for groups, couples and families and can easily accommodate up to 10 adults. Its location offers plenty of privacy and peace.
The villa has 5 bedrooms, 3 with a sea view (2 doubles) and 2 twin rooms, and 2 modern bathrooms.
Opened in July 2014, THE SPOT grants special promotional discounts.
Access
Zaostrog is located on the coastal road D8 Split-Dubrovnik, about 1 hr 30 min drive from Split or Dubrovnik airport.
There are regular long-distance buses along the coast from Split to Ploče and Dubrovnik, and local buses between the villages of Makarska Riviera.
The property is easily accessed by the villa’s gate from the quaint local coastal walkway, which opens into a private courtyard with its own garage that accommodates 1 car and additional 4 parking spaces, all available free of charge to guests only.
Ferries depart daily to the island of Hvar from neighbouring village Drvenik, to Pelješac Peninsula (from where the island Korčula is reachable) from nearby Ploče (less than 20 min driving distance) and to Brač from nearby Makarska (less than 30 min driving distance). Split, Međugorje and Dubrovnik are all just an hour’s drive away from THE SPOT.
The villa
The villa’s total surface area of more than 300 sqm is divided into two levels. The ground floor is accessed by two entrances and consists of a hallway with 3 cosy bedrooms (2 with a sea view) that sleep up to 6, a modern bathroom and a wide stairway leading to the grand first floor.
Most of the first floor is taken up by the magnificent spacious lounge, complete with a large open fireplace and dining area, whose four French doors open out onto the huge balcony providing a spectacular view of the sea and the islands of the Adriatic Archipelago.
The first floor also accommodates the master double bedroom with a sea view, one twin bedroom and a splendid bathroom with a tub.
The lounge opens out into a studio area and a large, fully equipped hi-tech kitchen with an induction cooktop, refrigerator, oven and microwave oven, dishwasher, espresso machine, toaster, mixer, citrus press and hand blender and all other conveniences.
The back kitchen door opens out onto several garden terraces, accessible also from the front and the side of the villa, all on their own levels with outdoor dining and BBQ facilities, surrounded by rows of lavender and oleander shrubs and tangerine, citrus, almond and olive trees all around the villa, plus rosemary, thyme, mint, sage and basic plants. Pick your favourite to add the special tang to any dish of your creation!
Free WiFi access is provided on the entire property. THE SPOT is equipped with an air-conditioning system and motorised remote-controlled blinds, a state-of-the-art Sonos wireless HiFi system that allows you to listen to your music collection in any room in the house, and a 50-inch Internet-ready LCD TV. Complimentary use of THE SPOT’s two bicycles is available to the guests at all times.
Contact us for any combination of dates. Rates and dates for certain periods are negotiable.

Summary of reviewsStunning house with modern amenities, beautiful views, and perfect beach access. Highly recommended for a relaxing vacation.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Aug 2019
The Spot is a gorgeous house in a little town with a beautiful beach. We were a group of 10 (three generations) and the house was spacious, spotless and lovely.
The house: nice modern kitchen, good size bedrooms (A/C only in those upstairs, fans downstairs), big living/dining room, big balcony with comfy furniture and unbelievable sea views, shady terraces with comfy seats and pretty views.
Location: very cute small town with restaurants, a bakery a few feet away (kids walked on their own), pizza place very close by, a great walking path in town, and hiking paths right from the house, minimal traffic, lots of restaurants, grocery stores, fruit stands, etc. A bit of a drive to all the famous locations (1.5 hrs to Split, 2.5 hrs to Dubrovnik, 2 hrs to Krka). Town of Makarska is 40 min away and has lovely restaurants, cute streets and is just a nice place to go for the evening.
Beach: right across a quiet road from the house and absolutely perfect. We just went in our swim suits without even taking towels. Calm, warm and perfectly clean water. Water sports rental right there - paddle boats are great fun and not expensive at all. There are pebbles, so bring water shoes.
Owner: Luka is very easy to work with and very responsive, any small issues or questions that we had were addressed immediately.
Restaurants: We went to two restaurants recommended by Luka and both were incredible. One was Galeb - we had a balcony with perfect views to ourselves and the food/service was amazing. Call at least a day ahead for a reservation. We also went to Konoba Kalalarga in Makarska for a special anniversary dinner with the whole group and had an amazing experience, with family style great food, and a beautiful private room. Highly recommend both places, as well as the pizza place next to the house.
Overall, a great experience - all ten of us, from the six year old to the sixty year olds, enjoyed the house and our vacation very much!
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Aug 2018
We are a family of five with three teenagers and we were fortunate to stay in Luka’s villa for two weeks in August 2018. The villa has a prime location at the end of the pretty village of Zaostrog. The beautiful Adriatic Sea and the stoney beach are only metres away. The first floor of the villa offers spectacular scenic views and we enjoyed the wonderful sunsets each evening.
The villa is ‘spotlessly’ clean with a cool, modern and comfortable interior and had absolutely everything we required for our stay. We particularly liked the accessibility to local restaurants and shops, all within walking distance. We also had the use of two bicycles which allowed us to explore the stunning coastline every morning.
Luka was a very attentive and responsive host and we hope to return to his villa in the future.
8.0 / 10.0Excellent·Aug 2018
Wunderschöne Haus. Perfekte Ausstattung (Klimaanlage auch im Erdgeschoss wäre wünschenswert). Der Ort Zaostrog ist ernüchternd.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Aug 2017
The villa exceeded the high expectations we went there with and there was plenty of room for all 10 of us to eat, sleep and relax comfortably together.
We could have happily stayed in the villa the whole 7 days and never go out. It was like a home away from home.
I cannot rate this villa and the service the owners provided highly enough.
