Kaštela · Split · Vinišće · Rudine — Central Dalmatia, Croatia

Three houses, one family, and a stretch of the Adriatic worth slowing down for.

Tri kuće, jedna obitelj, i dio Jadrana zbog kojeg se isplati usporiti.

For fifteen years the Martina family has opened their homes along the Dalmatian coast — from a hillside pool above Kaštela to a hidden bay near Vinišće. Come stay like you belong here.

About Villa Martina

A family address on the coast, not a hotel chain.

For fifteen years we've welcomed travellers from all over the world into our homes, sharing the traditions and pace of life of Central Dalmatia along the way. Every one of our houses is a little different — a hillside pool above Kaštela that turns into Rudine's celebration house each off-season, a modern base in Split, a hidden bay near Vinišće — but the welcome is the same: we're a phone call away for anything you need, from the moment you arrive to the morning you leave.

Rudine, above Kaštela

One house, two seasons

The same hillside villa above Kaštela leads a double life — Villa Martina Kaštela, a private family retreat through the summer months, and Central Dalmatia's go-to celebration house in Rudine the rest of the year. Same house, same pool and grounds — pick the tab that matches what you're planning.

Villa Martina

Villa Martina Kaštela

The Celebration House — Rudine

Set on a hillside above Kaštela in the quiet village of Rudine, surrounded by pine and olive groves, this fully air-conditioned villa is shielded from neighbours and passers-by — private, and far from city traffic. From the wide terrace, the view runs over Kaštela, historic Split (17 km away), the bay and the islands beyond; UNESCO-listed Trogir is just ten minutes down the road.

A short walk brings you to the nearby Biblical Garden, with trails perfect for a bike ride through the surrounding hills, and in minutes by car you can reach the beaches of Kaštela and neighbouring Čiovo.

3 depths 140 / 160 / 180cm pool May–Oct heated & cooled pool On site tennis, badminton, bocce

The heated pool beside the house is completely private, kept swimmable from May through October across three depths. For active days there's a multi-use court for tennis, badminton, volleyball, basketball and five-a-side football, plus a bocce lane shaded by olive trees — we're always glad to teach you the traditional Dalmatian game. Swings and a trampoline keep younger guests happy.

On the same pine-and-olive hillside above Kaštela, shielded from view and neighbours, this house turns into a venue purpose-built for gathering people together — birthdays, graduations, christenings, communions, hen and stag parties, and team-building days for groups of 15–20, with 10 beds across 4 rooms.

Outside, there's a multi-use court for tennis, badminton, volleyball, basketball and football, swings and a trampoline for younger guests, and a 20-metre bocce lane shaded by olive trees.

15–20 guests · 10 beds / 4 rooms Apr–Nov heated pool On request grill, peka, wine & rakija

The outdoor grill house is set up for barbecue, peka or spit-roast lamb. After years of hosting celebrations here, we keep adding to what we offer: renting the whole house, catering with grilled specialities, arranging a sit-down lunch or dinner, and pouring our own wine, rakija and olive oil from the family cellar and grove. A van and cars are available for transfers on request.

● Dračevac, Split

Villa Martina Split

Villa Martina

A modern, newly built house in Dračevac, one of Split's calm residential neighbourhoods, with private parking and a landscaped garden. Fully air-conditioned and comfortably furnished, with a terrace and barbecue just steps from the door.

From here, Split's old town is minutes away — wander the Roman streets of Diocletian's Palace, a 1,700-year-old complex where locals still live and work today. Swim at the city's beaches, walk the pine-shaded paths of Marjan, or spend the evening at one of the many local restaurants and bars. Split is also the natural starting point for day trips to the nearby islands, Dubrovnik, and the national parks of Krka and Plitvice.

70m² living space 3 guests · 1 bedroom · 1 bath Check-in 4pm / Check-out 10am

A member of our family will be there to welcome you in person, and if you're arriving without a car, we're happy to arrange transport to the house. Whatever you need during your stay — from a spare towel to a dinner recommendation — we're always just a call or message away.

Ljubljeva Bay, near Vinišće

Villa Martina Vinišće

Villa Martina

Tucked into the unspoiled Ljubljeva bay, 8 km from Vinišće and Marina and around 20 km from Trogir and the airport, this house sits in a wild, natural landscape that feels like its own island — with views out toward Vis and Palagruža on the horizon.

The sea here is remarkably clear: choose the paved beach, a sandy patch for children, or a secluded rocky cove hidden from view. We can also arrange a boat trip along the coast and nearby islets. Trails nearby wind past ancient sites, ideal for a walk or a ride.

120m² · sleeps 10 4 bedrooms · 3 bathrooms 150cm pool with child-safe entry

In front of the fully air-conditioned house, the pool has a wide, gently stepped entry built for young children to swim safely. The house comes with a fully equipped kitchen, dishwasher and washing machine, three air-conditioning units, two TVs with cable, free Wi-Fi, and a garden with barbecue and on-site parking.

Our Story
"Fifteen years ago we opened the first door to a stranger. Since then we've hosted people from every corner of the world — and every one of them has left as family. We're not a hotel; we're the people who'll pick up the phone at ten at night because you can't find the light switch." — The Martina Family
