For a long awaited vacation, many flee to seaside. Often the feeling of diving into the clean, cold sea symbolizes cleansing from everyday life and the commencement of battery recharge. It is indeed a fine choice, as the natural surroundings have the greatest potential of providing proper relaxation and rest. Many places can provide such refreshment, but rare are those with a truly old soul, traditional Mediterranean spirit and the abundance of untouched natural beauties. One of those rare places is the increasingly popular coast of Croatia, with its many islands and archipelagos, and one of the most prominent examples of all the Adriatic advantages is the island of Pag.
Only 500 meters from the closest pebble beach and situated in a peaceful, quiet part of Novalja on the island of Pag, Villa Andriana is a place where you can realize your holiday dream. With its beautiful view of the sea the Villa will please even its most demanding guests, who will enjoy absorbing the breathtaking scenery. Aside from that, being on the outskirts of town, you are sure to have all the privacy you need, while at the same time having an option of having fun at the famous Zrće beach, which is only a few km away. The house is a mature blend of modern and traditional architecture, combining aesthetics of both while employing the latest functionality standards. The lines and shapes of the house are minimalistic, yet the use of stone as one of the structural materials brings a certain Mediterranean spirit to the place. The villa also boasts a spacious courtyard with trimmed grass and plenty of indigenous plants around the place. Aside from this natural part of the courtyard, the paved section houses a swimming pool surrounded by a number of sun beds where you can enjoy the sunny days with your family or friends! There is also an outdoor area with BBQ facilities where you can enjoy freshly prepared meals.
The interior of Villa Andriana combines the two different styles as the exterior does, and the result is just stunning. The elegant furniture is partly custom made, and wood is one of the main elements of the interior making it feel warm and inviting. Various decorations are present throughout the villa like paintings, pictures, vases with plants and more, which are all picked with great taste. The villa consists of two floors. The ground floor’s concept is a sunlit open space with a kitchen fully equipped for your daily cooking needs, a dining area, which can comfortably accommodate the guests, and a cozy living room overlooking the pool. On the first floor you will find three bedrooms, one equipped with a double bed and two equipped with two single beds. The bedrooms are very spacious and bright, each equipped with a television. There are also three bathrooms, equipped with showers. The villa is 180m2 big and offers two parking spaces. It is air conditioned, and internet is available (Wi-Fi).
Novalja offers plenty of content, whether it is simple grocery shopping or more enjoyable activities like exploration, dining in fine restaurants, drinking great cocktails in the beach bars and more. There are shops around, bakeries, markets (there is always fresh fish for early birds) and a lot of old buildings that still stand as a testament to the days gone and the culture which over time evolved into the modern society. Sports enthusiasts can try their hand at tennis, table tennis, beach volleyball, football, handball, basketball, water skiing, surfing and sailing. But the island’s main attraction for young tourists is Zrće beach, one of the prettiest beaches in Pag and definitely the most popular in the Adriatic due to the music festivals and day & night parties.
