Villa Leon

The owners are a young, friendly couple who speak English and were really helpful. If we come back to this area, we’d like to stay here again. We wanted a quiet place to rest, and this new apartment was just right. It’s tastefully decorated and has practically everything you need. The beach, bus stop, and grocery store are only a few minutes away. Split is about 20 minutes by bus or 10 minutes by car, so it’s easy to head there for shopping, sightseeing, or an evening out. Since the apartment isn’t in the center, it’s peaceful. We enjoyed lazy days on the clean, quiet beach with a few coffee shops and restaurants nearby, then dinner or drinks on the spacious terrace in the evening. Highly recommended if you need a rest.

We had the ground-floor apartment with two bedrooms. It was spotless and really spacious, with a well equipped kitchen, induction stove, and dishwasher. The bathroom had a large shower with pretty good pressure. There were two fast WiFi networks, so it could work well for digital nomads. You can also use the amazing barbecue terrace. Our host was friendly, kind, and knew the area well. He welcomed us with figs and wine and patiently answered all our questions. Great hospitality. A few small downsides: there’s no window in the second bedroom, the view isn’t nice, and there’s no hairdryer. But the beach is only a few steps away. Otherwise, awesome. Don’t hesitate to stay here if you’re in the area.

For more than two months, we called Leon's apartment home. I’ll remember the mountain view, waking to birds singing, and morning jogs by the sea for a long time. Thanks, Vinko and Kate, for the warm welcome and kindness. All the best to your family! From Max, Natali, and Tim.

The hosts communicated really well, and the place was clean and finished to a very high standard. It’s close to the sea and a good choice for families with kids.
