The villa for six is truly stunning, having taken the best part of 5 years to renovate with local artisans, even the shutters are individually handcrafted. Brimming with gorgeous antiques, many from faraway lands,sitting alongside modern appliances, the villa exudes glamour and classic lines. Located footsteps from the Old Town entrance and the sea, this luxury villa certainly deserves to be at the top of its range.
I'm American, my husband is from Cavtat, Crotia. (not too far south of Dubrovnik) We live in cold, dreary, snowy, icy, Indianapolis, Indiana. After looking through your blog, I'm positive that we need to move back to his homeland. :)
ReplyDeleteHi there! Thanks for the comment and glad you are following from faraway. Cavtat I know very well and have posted many times articles on Cavtat; beautiful resort town. If you feel you want to move back here to your husband's homeland, contact me for help! We too have rain today though is a comfortable 60 deg F!
ReplyDeleteThis is a wonderful place to have a long vacation, Azure. I'm from Miami and I've seen lots of resorts here -- really beautiful. What I like about beach houses are the shingled roofing. There are different types of roofs today but I find shingles to be the most appealing for any house or cottage. The circular bath looks fantastic!
