You’ve seen the pictures. You’ve probably even pinned them to your travel board: impossibly clear, turquoise water lapping against pebbled shores, terracotta roofs tumbling down to the sea, and ancient stone walls glowing in the golden hour light. For years, that was my dream, too—a two-week escape to a Croatian beach paradise.
Tired of the same old resort routine? The crowded pools, the buffet lines, the generic hotel art? It’s time to trade “vacation” for an experience. It’s time to unlock the door to your own private beach villa.
You’ve done the all-inclusive resort. You’ve navigated the crowded hotel lobby for a poolside chair. You’ve dined on a buffet schedule. It was fun, but now you’re dreaming of something… more. Something that feels less like a packaged tour and more like a discovery.
