We had 2 families with a total of 4 adults and 6 kids staying for 5 days. The house had plenty of space, gorgeous views and all we needed. It's out of the main city, but close enough to everything you need/want

We had a fabulous 10 Day stay at this beautiful spacious villa. The owner Charles was so helpful throughout our booking & stay. Mila the lady who looks after the villa in Mlini was delightful bringing us homemade cake, bakery bread & veggies from her garden. The villa was spotlessly clean. We thoroughly enjoyed the amazing terrace with views out to sea. The pool was lovely. The villa was extremely well equipped. Mlini has a delightful sea front & we enjoyed swimming in the sea & got used to the walk back up to the villa. We had a nice dinner out at Flamingo restaurant near to the villa but enjoyed eating on the wonderful terrace mostly. We went to the local bakery for fresh bread & chocolate croissants daily. There is a Lidl not too far away for the rest of the shopping. Delightful trip to Dubrovnik- Uber there early morning €13 for 4 of us & the little ferry boat home €10 each but so lovely to leave Dubrovnik by boat & look back. Also enjoyed a day in lovely Cavtat nearby. A relaxing & enjoyable holiday in an outstanding villa. Thank you .

We picked Villa Magnolia in a great rush as the villa we thought we'd booked in Brac was not ours at all. Charles, the owner of Villa Magnolia, was extremely helpful in helping us solve our panic situation as we booked with him with just 3 weeks to go before our arrival. Villa Magnolia is in the small town of Mlini, just a 20 minute drive south from the UN World Heritage Site of Dubrovnik. As many others have said, the photos here do not do the villa justice! Our group response on entering the house was gasps of wonder and joy - the house is huge, with much needed air conditioning maintaining a delightful coolness in every room (it was HOT while we were there!) The rooms are all spacious and comfortable with 2 en suite bathrooms and a 3rd general use bathroom. I suggest bringing a laptop or Chromecast to access Netflix etc on the house TV. The fridge is huge, the kitchen well equipped. The views from the balcony (there's two to choose from!) are fantastic and we spent many hours simply sitting there drinking it all in. Now, there is one small issue - well, more like one hundred of them actually - and that's the steps to the beaches and seafront. This is in no way a fault of the owner's, naturally, but if you're not fit and steady on your feet, this villa may not be for you. Everything is within a 15 minute walk, but those 15 minutes on the way home are a very sweaty effort! Local restaurants are welcoming and serve very reasonably priced food, both for lunches and dinner. The sea is crystal clear and full of fish so snorkelling is very much a feature. We'd happily stay here again! Well done to Charles for creating such a fantastic place to stay!

We have just returned from Villa Magnolia a beautiful villa on the hillside of Mlini. It was a family holiday for 10, 6 adults and 4 children aged 6 – 12. Everyone agreed it had been a super holiday in a super villa. The villa is spacious and airy and finished to a high specification. All the bedrooms and bathrooms are a good size, the furnishings are all good quality. The kitchen is well equipped and had everything we needed. Although it accommodated all of us, it would be most comfortable for 8. The balcony offered a stunning view of the bay and to the right, the bombed hotel at Kupari beach (a nice beach just past Srebeno). The pool is in a great location for relaxing in the sun and was in constant use. The children couldn’t wait to get into it and loved it. There were umbrellas, sun loungers and cushions for the adults. Mlini is a lovely little resort with enough restaurants in walking distance so as not to need a car. The driveway is steep and there are around 200+ steps to the beach and harbour. There is a bakery and minimarket nearby and a bigger supermarket further on in the Srebreno shopping centre. We used Uber to return to the villa from the supermarket (shopping for 10!). Crossing the road could be difficult as there are only 2 pedestrian crossings. We used the Flamingo restaurant just below the villa, good food and very reasonable. Another nice restaurant was Kogo by the traffic lights at Srebreno. Afterwards we walked down to the promenade to make our way home. Once home we were treated to a beautiful firework display following a water polo match at the end of the bay. For a day out in Dubrovnik we took the boat (100 Kunas round trip) from the harbour. Alternatively the bus takes around 10 mins (18 Kunas). Charles is a delight to correspond with, very responsive with a lovely sense of humour. He was very understanding and supportive when we had to change our dates due to covid restrictions. Thank you.

We had a wonderful time in Villa very spacious, beautiful views from Terrace. Lovely clean pool to relax. The Villa had everything we needed. Vic and his Mother were available to help and very attentive to our needs. Mother brought us tomatoes and cakes. which were very nice thank you. Charles also helped with all our anxieties booking in covid times . Would highly recommend.

We very much enjoyed our stay in this Mlini property. The views from the deck are fantastic and it is an easy walk to get down to the beaches and various restaurants. Its also very simple to either drive, or take a water ferry to Dubrovnik. This was the first VRBO/Airbnb I've stayed in where the pictures did not do the place justice. We all walked in happily surprised, especially the kids. The local host, Eci, was great with check-in and to help us with a few issues that we encountered. I would gladly stay there again, in fact I'd go further and say I'd love to stay there again.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about the amazing stay that we had in Villa Magnolia. We had a group of eight that included my husband, parents, sister and brother-in-law along with our two adult daughters. There was enough room for everybody to have their own space and privacy if needed while offering ample gathering space to enjoy our time together. The view from the veranda overlooking the sea is simply amazing and the pool offered a refreshing place to cool off and lounge after sightseeing and visiting the highlights of the surrounding area. The villa definitely provided all of the comforts of home along with luxurious decor which added a special feel to our vacation. Charles was very responsive as we planned our trip and Eci, who greeted us at the villa was very friendly and helpful as we checked in and began our adventure in Croatia. I would definitely recommend Villa Magnolia to friends and family and would love to return again someday. I also would highly recommend Deck and Cheers for an amazing private boat tour of the surrounding islands at a reasonable rate. They can be found at boatdubrovnik.com Tony is very attentive to all of his guests and provides awesome tours with a personal touch. This tour was definitely a highlight of our visit to the beautiful coast of Croatia.
