Villa Valentina

"Google maps is generally our trusted guide, but this time we got lost in the maze of narrow alleys in Bol. Our host had sent out special instructions, which we entered, but we still got somewhat off target and had to ask around locally. Once we found the place, the parking lot is spacious, although it lacks shade. Our hostess gave us a useful introduction to the area and a helpful map. The location is very convenient with only a short walk to restaurants and cafes. The beach requires a longer walk, but goes through a smooth pedestrian walkway with good shade. Beach towels were kindly provided. Not surprisingly, this kind of place draws big crowds during peak season. Unfortunately the TV didn't work since a storm had nocked out the connection. We learned this only after considerable testing of remote control options. That would normally not be of significance, but we missed a quarter final in the Women's European Championship that we had looked forward to watching. The kitchen was well equipped. There was no in-room safe."

Villa Giardino Heritage Boutique Hotel Bol

"We enjoyed three wonderful days in Bol at the Villa Giardina. We were in the presidential suite, with two bedrooms. The room was spotless, comfortable, and nicely decorated. Bathrooms are large and modern. The grounds are beautiful. The host, Nick, bends over backward to make your stay fantastic. Included breakfast on the veranda included fresh fruit, yogurt, goods, and eggs made to order. Easily carried us through to a late lunch every day. Nick provided information on restaurants, local sites, and booked us a boat trip (then walked down to the dock to make sure we found our boat). Great location near beach and restaurants. There are steps to enter the property. Highly recommended."
