Seafront Villa Agnes, old captains house, beachfront villa with private pool

Villa Agnes is situated in the center of historical town Orebić, only 3 meters from the sea, in the series of famous „captain houses“. Villa is over 100 years' old house, it was built in 1912th year in artistic style „jugendstile“. The first founders were successful winemakers. Their wines and sparkling wines were favored at the ships of The Austro-Hungarian Navy in that period. This villa provides a breathtaking view of the sea and islands on the south and opposite a dramatic view of the Mount St. Elijah on the north. Courtyard surrounded by a high stone wall provides the necessary privacy and protection of views in order to enjoy the outdoor terraces.
If you want to swim should just get out of the yard and you are already on the nearby beach, or walk to the nearby small docks or you will take a swim in the private swimming pool in the front yard.
The combination of sea, Mediterranean herbs and gracefulness of the villa and its authentic historical style offers an unforgettable vacation pleasure. By staying in this historic villa one can revive the spirit of the past.
Villa was completely renovated 2014th year with special attention to the preservation of its historical authenticity in the exterior and interior.
Villa of usable area of 240 m2 is ideal for 9 people. It consists of three floors. The ground floor has an entrance foyer, living room and spacious dining room for ten persons, all oriented to the south or to the sea. Fully equipped kitchen is oriented to the north. All rooms are interrelated and all have direct access to the exterior surfaces. Impressive vaulted bathroom is located in a former store water. There is also a separate toilet on the ground floor.
From the entrance hall on the ground floor the stone staircase lead to the first floor.
The first floor is intended for sleeping and resting in a Mediterranean ambience. In the center, there is a small and pleasant lounge that exits to a balcony decorated with stylish fence . The balcony offers a view of the perfectly blue sea and garden with palm trees and bougainvillea. On this floor, there are four bedrooms. Two bedrooms have large double beds, one room has two single beds, and the fourth room is single bedroom. All bedrooms have two windows that offer a view of the sea and partly on the mountain St. Elijah. During summer nights the flow of fresh air from the nearby mountain naturally cools the rooms upstairs, there is also air conditioning in all bedrooms. There is a shared bathroom that one enters from a small lounge area.

From the foyer on the first floor the wooden stairs leads to the attic. The attic is organized as an open space with double bed, space to relax, read and work. Children are very fond of this space.

Beautiful vintage captains house with a great location
We all loved the house. It was exactly as it appeared in VRBO and the front gate opened directly to stepping into the ocean for swimming. Charmling 19th century captain's house. Completely updated baths and kitchen and close to restaurants, grocery stores and the ferry to Korcula.

A truly wonderful house in a magical location
I am so happy we chose this house. It was incredible from start to finish. The location was perfect for us, right across the path from the sea and so close to shops, bakeries and restaurants. We swam in the sea every day and walked to the beach further along to rent paddle boards and jet skis. I thought we would take the ferry to Korcula more often but Orebic had lots to offer. Check out the fish seller next to the supermarket (open till 12) and the wine shop there too. As for the house, it is comfortable and utterly charming - we loved the pool and the tortoises in the garden. The kitchen is small but extremely well equipped and was a pleasure to cook in, we ate at the large dining table most days with the doors open to the beautiful gardens and the sea beyond. I can't recommend this house enough and would really love to return.

Thoroughly recommend this property
The views from this house are stunning. The sea is literally across the road/lane. Well equipped house with lovely garden and barbeque at the back with outdoor table and chairs. The air conditioning was a must. Very relaxing area to sunbathe by the pool despite passersby peering through the gates because the house is so attractive. The pool is not large but perfect for cooling off.

Beautiful unique getaway!
If you're looking for a beautiful, unique and relaxing property for a getaway then this is definitely it! Villa Agnes is a former Captain's house which has been beautifully restored by its present owners, with a good mix of original and modern features, and with beautiful antique and shabby chic furniture. Just staying at the property makes you feel very special, and whilst you do get some people looking through the gate at the end of the lovely garden and pool area to take photographs, it made us realise how lucky we were to be stopping in such a special historical property. Villa Agnes is just a few metres from the pebble/rocky beach on the main promenade, so you're close to everything you need whilst having a lovely secluded and relaxing feel. The pool is an absolute godsend when it's hot and is bigger than it looks in the photos. Betina the housekeeper is very helpful and responds to any queries immediately, as did the owners during the booking process. The property has aircon in the two main (front) bedrooms and top bedroom and in the dining room. I don't think it had it in two of the bedrooms, so if I'm right that would be a nice addition in the future as I would definitely like to go back with others and aircon in every bedroom would be ideal. Orebic itself is lovely in September when the crowds have died down and is just a 15 minute ferry ride from the beautiful Korcula Island (otherwise known as the mini Dubrovnik!) , which we visited twice as it's so close. This really is the perfect place to stay and I will definitely be going back again at some point!

Fabulous family holiday home by the sea
The beautiful old captain’s house is right by the sea and promenade. Its spacious old house, pretty garden with the lovely little pool, barbeque in the back garden, outdoor seating area and amazing views out over the island of Korcula make for a wonderful chilled place to enjoy the quiet beauty of Orebic. Thoroughly recommend the house and area to families. Thanks for having us and to Betina for helping us during our stay.

Wonderful holiday - suitable for all our family
It was good to meet Marijana and Timothy and thank you for a lovely holiday in your beautiful house and garden. We very much appreciated the air conditioning at night as it was a hot week. Wi-Fi was also a bonus especially with teenagers. The pool although not big was perfectly fine, great just to keep cool and certainly enjoyed by the boys for playing and also great with a lilo and book!. Wonderful to have the sea within a few metres and we all had a daily dip. Everything was on the doorstep and although we hired a car for journey to and from airport (cheaper than a taxi) did not use it whilst there. Great to have the bakers so close, you can get there and back before the kettle boils! Wonderful atmosphere outside in the evenings and we had some lovely meals in 4 restaurants all within a 5 minute walk. We enjoyed Bettina’s happy chat each morning whilst looking after the pool, although we had no questions it was nice to have contact. One small point, we did have trouble finding the villa, although we found the road quite easily we did walk up and down for an hour between the water park and the ferry (the heat didn’t help) looking for number 2 Villa Agnes and even asked at the information centre who were no help (and you were actually next door!) The sign outside the villa is ‘Kucaza Odmor’ which we presumed was the name of the villa but now I have googled it means ‘holiday home’ which did not help at the time! We would definitely recommend this holiday and were sorry to leave but hope one day to return. Thank you.

Great house, great holiday....LOVED it
We stayed at Villa Agnes in early September as two couples with our young children (3 and 1 year olds) and had a wonderful holiday. The house is immaculate, charming, clean, has everything you need and right in the centre of town/ opposite the beach. The owner was great to book with, accommodating our young children and supplying extra cots as needed and very well organised locally with Bettina being on hand with any issues that occurred (not that we really had any!). Orebic is a smallish town but definitely charming and has some lovely restaurants, good variety of beaches, bakeries, supermarkets, watersports and connectivity to Korcula which was a great day out. All in all a great place and cant wait to go back.

Excellent stay at Villa Agnes
A group of 7 spent an excellent 10 days at Villa Agnes in July. The property is just as beautiful as the pictures suggest ; amazing views, lovely pool and garden with a well appointed rooms! It was great not to have to bring towels and the linin was changed every couple of days. It was very hot during our stay and so air conditioning in most of the bedrooms was a major plus. The pool was larger than we had expected and although the beach is literally a couple of metres away, we used the pool every single day. Swimming shoes are essential as the beach is pebbles and there are quite a few sea anemones with sharp spines attached to the rocks. The water is crystal clear and fabulous to swim in ! The small town has a good mix of bars restaurants and shops plus a couple of great home made ice-cream vendors! We self catered mostly ( quite well equipped kitchen) there is a medium size supermarket nearby and a much larger version fully stocked one on the outskirts of the town. Local agent Betina was super helpful and friendly and the pool man/ gardener worked hard to maintain high standards. Although we had a vehicle, we only used it once, preferring to take the ferry as foot passengers and didn't find the need to venture further. We had an amazing holiday and would thoroughly recommend this property and hope to return!

Traumhafte Location
Wir waren vom 02.06 - 16.06.2019 mit 4 Erwachsen zu Gast in dieser wirklich fantastischen Villa. Die Lage ist einfach top. Man erreicht Cafés, Bars , Restaurants und Supermarkt in höchstens 5 Minuten zu Fuß. Die Villa ist mit viel liebe zum Detail, stilvoll eingerichtet und sauber.Der Aussenbereich ist eine wohlfühl Oase, der Pool immer sauber der Garten traumhaft. Die Klimaanlagen sind alle sehr leise und sehr gut gepflegt/gewartet. Die beiden Zimmer die wir zum Schlafen genutzt haben waren sehr schön und in den Betten haben wir gut geschlafen , der Ausblick aus den Fenstern wow. Die Villa bietet locker Platz für 6 Erwachsene und zwei Kids.Wir können diese super Location ohne wenn und aber weiter empfehlen. Von uns gibt es 5 ⭐️. Wir werden definitiv wiederkommen. Vielen lieben Dank an Marijana und Bettina die immer erreichbar waren und super Ausflugstips hatten.

Charming villa in a beautiful place
We were 6 adults and 3 teenagers/kids staying in the house, and we all loved it. Villa Agnes is amazing and you have close access to everything you need, anything from a fully equipped house to swimming pool, the beach, restaurants, bars, ice cream vendors (so good) etc. Two of the bedrooms in the villa don't have AC but a big fan instead which made sleeping there a bit less pleasant than in the other rooms (we were there during Lucifer). Marijana and Bettina supported in the best way, always replying quickly to any questions we had. Finally, never heard about Orebic before but can really recommend it as a place to visit. Mostly local tourists and a genuine athmosphere. Thanks for having us, would love to come back.

Beautiful villa and village. Amazing outdoor space.
The villa, the view, the garden and the surroundings were amazing. Though I missed having a comfortable sofa indoors for the kids to hang out in, and a couple of more outdoor sunbeds/sun chairs as we where 9 people and there were only 5 all together. But we absolutly enjoyed our stay and recommend the village and the house. If you are to stay I recommend a trip to Korcula and Lambarda beach as well as tracking up to the monestary and the restaurant Hird.

Charmigt boende så nära havet du kan komma!
Vi är oerhört nöjda med vår vecka i Villa Agnes i Orebic. Huset har en härlig atmosfär och var mycket rymligt och bekvämt för oss. Vi var 7 vuxna personer. Köket är ganska litet men välutrustat och praktiskt. Vi lagade lunch "hemma" varje dag och det fungerade utmärkt. Huset har nog stans bästa läge. Havet några meter från grinden, Flera trevliga caféer och restauranter mycket nära och så den lilla fina poolen på framsidan av huset. Fantastiskt! Vår värd Bettina gav oss också bästa möjliga service. Vi kommer gärna tillbaka!
