Croatia's dreamy islands are fast becoming one of the most desirable holiday destinations out there, and this penthouse proves why. Located in Mavarštica Bay on Čiovo, this home offers lowkey luxury in a fabulous setting – it's perfect for summers by the sea. The interior is sleek and modern, with a crisp colour scheme and contemporary furnishings. It's a great place to hang out and hide from the heat, but we think you'll want to spend most of your time outside enjoying the balmy weather. Your private roof terrace has a hot tub where you can relax and enjoy the sea view, along with a summer kitchen and barbeque for whipping up alfresco feasts. And, you'll also have access to the shared swimming pool, for refreshing dips in the sparkling water. There is a range of restaurants and shops in the surrounding streets, where you can dine on fresh seafood and pick up some souvenirs. Beach fans are spoilt for choice – Beach Bocici is a fifteen-minute walk away, as is Mavarstica Beach. And, if you're looking for a little adventure, why not rent a boat or try your hand at scuba diving – you can arrange both locally. Home truths: *The roof terrace is private, but the pool area is shared with other residents of the building *A car parking space is provided *A crib can be provided on request *You can use your laptop at the dining table if you need to work remotely
