About this property
Set on the island of Lopud, this six-bedroom villa looks out across the Adriatic and neighbouring islands, just 250 metres from the coast. With no cars on the island, daily life moves at a slower pace, and beaches, restaurants, and walking paths are all easily reached on foot.
Built in traditional stone, the villa retains its original character through features such as terracotta floors and exposed wooden beams, while incorporating modern comforts including air conditioning and Wi-Fi throughout. The living area is spacious and comfortable, with a large L-shaped sofa and TV, while the fully equipped kitchen includes a generous dining space for group meals. Several terraces offer additional spots for outdoor dining.
The villa sleeps up to twelve guests across four double bedrooms and two twin rooms. Three bedrooms have en-suite bathrooms, while the remaining rooms share two family bathrooms, making it well suited to families or groups travelling together.
Outside, the terrace centres around a private swimming pool and sun loungers, all positioned to make the most of the sea views. Various seating areas provide space to unwind throughout the day, whether in the sun or shade. From the villa, it’s a short walk to sandy beaches, clear water, and local restaurants, including the well-known Šunj Beach.
Villa Jahta is ideally placed to enjoy Croatia's history, culture and fabulous climate, yet is a unique destination, located on a serene, car-free island! The villa's unique location means that access to it is challenging; there are multiple steps up to the villa, which are uneven and may not be suitable for those with mobility issues.
The island of Lopud, the middle of the three principal Elaphite islands, is brimming with sandy beaches and elegant old buildings, including the famous Sunj beach, the largest sandy beach in the entire Dubrovnik region.
Dubrovnik itself is a visual masterpiece. In amongst the winding cobbled streets and vast, beautiful squares of its Old Town, you will find endless tiny restaurants, shops, galleries and cafes. Each twist and turn brings a new delight - from the baroque St. Blaise Church to the Renaissance Sponza Palace and the Gothic Rector's Palace, historical and architectural masterpieces are tucked away in this majestic walled city.
Dubrovnik International Airport is 37km from the villa, while the city is a major hub for those getting ferries.

Villa Jahta was a fantastic base for a wonderful holiday in Croatia. With plenty of space for our party of 9 (and a bathroom for everyone!), the most incredible views, all the facilities we could want, and being in close proximity to more amenities than we even anticipated, the villa and its surrounds made for an idyllic holiday. Lopud proved to be the perfect location for our extended family group which ranged from 9 to 46 year olds! The beaches were perfect, the range of restaurants impressive, the shops more comprehensive in their stocks than we were anticipating, and the architecture and views just breathtaking. This was all topped off by the most friendly people including the villa's caretaker who could not do enough for us and felt like a friend by the end of our stay. The trip to Dubrovnik was easy and enjoyed by all and the transfers to and from the villa were not only seamless but also a memorable part of our experience themselves.

We have just returned from our family holiday to Lopud and I just wanted to say wow! We had the best time ever and literally cannot recommend the island enough. The villa was spectacular feeling like a home and we loved the amount of space we had along with the kids spending most of their time in the pool. The views from the villa were amazing and more than made up for the crazy amount of steps (that we did know about) to get to the villa. The restaurants and food were top class and the beach was beautiful with the most amazing crystal clear water. However, nothing made the holiday quite like the locals, I can honestly say the island was full of the friendliest people we have ever met.
