Vista Kornati

Blessed with an enviable front-row seat to stunning Adriatic views, this spectacular and secluded coastal villa offers a tranquil getaway from the hustle and bustle of your everyday routine, with ample opportunity to reconnect with friends and family.

Inside, generous spaces open up to make the most of the seaside location, with panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows and sliding doors that lead out onto gorgeous terraces. With its southwest orientation, you couldn't be better placed to make the most of breathtaking sunsets over the nearby Kornati islands. What's more, the islands themselves are well worth a visit, and only a couple of hours by boat from the historic city of Zadar (8km away).

With the sea just steps away, a pool is entirely superfluous. And direct access to the enticing azure depths from the back garden should prove more than enough. Emerge from the water to explore the nearby coastline, and you'll find oceanside forests to the north and a local cafe/konoba serving up refreshments to the south. For more substantial morsels, we'd suggest eating your fill of local delicacies at the nearby restaurant, 700m away.
