Croatia is a stunningly beautiful country with an incredible coastline that is shadowed by some amazing towering rocky mountains.
Gata itself is a quiet village where you can truly relax while taking in the surrounding views. A short yet epic journey from the house takes you down to the coastal town of Omis where you'll find plenty of shops, restaurants, and a lovely beach.
A hire car is a must and proved to be a great way to explore Croatia. We very much enjoyed a day in Split, strolling along the promenade admiring all the luxury yachts and of course sampling the local food and drink.
The villa was impressive, offering pretty much everything we needed to enjoy our holiday. The kitchen was well stocked, and a small selection of treats throughout our stay was a welcomed touch. The saltwater swimming pool was a real pleasure, especially in the 30+ degree summer heat! At the end of a long day, the terrace was the perfect place to unwind with a glass of wine while watching the sun pass below the distant hills.
Myself, partner and 8-month-old daughter had a fantastic time and would all highly recommend Gata for a memorable holiday destination.
