Luxury seafront villa, stunning sea & harbour views, on unspoilt island of Vis

Villa Riva is a beautiful, four-storey 200 year old Venetian villa, set on a small square facing the lapping waters of the Adriatic. It accommodates 6-8 people, and offers stunning views of Vis and its harbour from all the bedrooms and terraces. At once luxurious and relaxed, it’s a perfect getaway for those who love the beauty and history of Europe, crave the relaxation of a seaside location, and want a comfortable, private retreat from which to enjoy it all.

Villa Riva sleeps 6-8 people with all the amenities you could possibly need for family and friends seeking a carefree, coastal European holiday.

It is an old house, in the beautiful Venetian-style architecture of Vis, which has been stylishly renovated to a high standard.

The top terrace offers breathtaking views over the picturesque bay of Vis with its monastery, islets, harbour-side yachts and the turquoise Adriatic sea. Once you have enjoyed an evening drink watching the sun set over the far side of the bay, you’ll never want to leave.

The two large bedrooms, one on each of the middle levels, have similar, stunning harbour views, and there is a second, vine shaded terrace off the lower bedroom. You can choose a king-size bed or twin beds in this room. The third twin bedroom is on the ground floor with its own en suite.

Also, if desired, there are two high quality sofa beds that can accommodate 1-2 more people. However, please be aware that this does take up the living space and is not very convenient.

There are three bathrooms, one next to each bedroom on the two middle levels, each with a toilet, shower, basin and bench space, plus an ensuite bathroom adjoining the ground floor bedroom.

There is a washing machine and dryer in one of the middle-level bathrooms.

The top level has a fully equipped kitchen (full size fridge, stove, microwave, toaster, cookware, utensils, cutlery, crockery) if you can’t bear to leave our beautiful house and want to self cater more extensively. You can eat on the balcony terrace while enjoying stunning views of the bay.

There is WiFi throughout, free of charge.
During your stay at this villa, you're just a quick walk from Church of Vis. You'll find features like a spa tub. The villa includes amenities such as a kitchen and 3 bathrooms.
  • Air-conditioned villa with kitchen, washing machine, and 3 bathrooms
  • Steps from Church of Vis and 7 minutes by foot from Gradski Museum

Incredible villa and island!
Beautiful villa, in a great location! The refrigerator was stocked with basic necessities, such as milk, coffee, butter, cheese, and even some wine. There was also a bowl of fruit and cereal available. The three king-sized beds were very comfortable. How amazing to sit on the top terrace and people/boat watch! There are many cafes and small grocery stores within a five minute walk. Living the dream!

A fantastic house, with unbeatable views of the Vis harbor
The house was immaculate, well stocked and convenient to beaches, town, great restaurants and the local grocery store, fruit market and wine merchant.

Amazing house on the harbour
The location of Villa Riva is excellent, probably unrivaled in Kut/Vis. The interior is very stylish and also well designed, with all amenities. Each floor is in itself surprisingly small, and the house has lots of stairs. But this also adds a certain charm, and a sense of privacy to each floor. All three bedrooms are on separate floors and have en suite bathrooms, and one has its own terrace with sunbeds. The top floor has a kitchen/living room and another terrace with amazing views across the entire harbour. 10 meters from the door is a dip in the sea and five meters away is the closest of many konobas/taverns, so it is possible to keep your entire holiday experience extremely local if you like. Boat traffic and party atmosphere in the harbour varied somewhat throughout the day and week, and at Villa Riva you feel rather in the middle of it all as an observer. This made for some good people- and boatwatching. We also had water taxi and boat trips arranged for us by the house manager's family, and made good use of the owner's excellent recommendations for trips and restaurants. Our favourites were probably Pojoda in Kut, Lola in Vis and Jastozera in Komiza. For bars, we recommend Fruterija and Lambik in particular. Both children, teenagers and adults loved our stay at Villa Riva, and we will always remeber where we were when Croatia played the World Cup Final ;-)
