We were looking for a house on the water for a family vacation and could not have been happier with Villa Antares. There was plenty of room for all 10 of us between the 3 apartments rented and we had everything we needed for cooking meals together and eating on the terrace over looking the ocean. Vedrana and Ivo were perfect hosts--helping us find the house upon arrival (it is not on street level), tips on best restaurants and day trips throughout Croatia. While the house is not on the street, it is right on the water with views of the mountains and neighboring islands. There is a convenient walking path from the house into the main part of town where you can find restaurants, market and bakery. The house and the private beach are quiet, clean and beautiful. We had originally planned on more sight seeing in other parts of the country, but were so pleased with the house, the town and of course the warm, clear water, that we spent most of the week enjoying Villa Antares. Our family ranged from ages 12 to 74 and everyone had a wonderful time. If you are looking for a relaxing beach vacation, but want to avoid lots of crowds and tourists, you will be very happy in Pisak at Villa Antares. We would absolutely love to stay here again and would highly, highly, highly recommend it (and have to friends back in the US). Ivo and Vedrana - once again, thank you so much for everything you did to ensure we had a wonderful stay at Villa Antares! Piotr and Amanda

Perched right on the edge of the Adriatic, this property far surpassed our expectations. The position is quite spectacular with the most beautiful views across to the islands. The sea is crystal clear with plenty of opportunities to snorkel. The sunsets are breathtaking and seem to last forever. We were a family party of 9 and took the lower two apartments. The rooms were clean with all the basics and totally suited our needs. There was good wifi, a definite need for the teenagers in our party. The bedrooms are air conditioned and as we had temperatures of 32+ degrees all week, total bliss! Our hosts gave us a warm welcome and were so helpful, nothing was ever a problem for them. The only thing that I would possibly have liked, was an extra pillow each. The village of Pisak is just a 15 minute walk away and you need not go any further for supplies. There is a bakery, supermarket, fresh fish and fruit market. There are also two great restaurants, the one in the harbor great for fish and meats and the one on the beach great for pizza. We did a river rafting trip on the Cetina River, just 20 minutes away, what a great contrast to the beach and what an adrenaline rush for us all! There was very little need to search for any other activities, as we all felt that we had found our little piece of paradise away from the crowds. I would certainly recommend taking your own snorkeling gear and a lilo for plenty of hours of entertainment. A totally relaxing and enjoyable holiday for all ages. Croatia on a whole is still affordable as a family holiday. Next time-yes we will be back, we would like to stay longer and discover a little more of this beautiful country-a car is a must! Thank you Verdrana for sharing your lovely home with us.

Arriving at Villa Antares was a overwhelming experience. The apartment had nice interior, was clean and fully equipped. A great terass with a stunning view overlooking the sea. We chose this vacation because we wanted a holiday in a relaxed environment, with a lot of sunbathing and water activities. We were not disappointed :) Five minute walk on a lovely little path along the seaside took us to the smal center of Pisak. There are two restaurants to choose from. Both with nice food and good service. Two bars, a bakery and a mini supermarket. Our hosts, Verdana and Ivo were very warm and welcoming and wanted to make sure that we had everything that the family needed for a great vacation. So, thank you Verdana and Ivo for having us as guest in your beautiful house. We would highly recommend it and hope to see you soon again. // Lotta & Peter

We came for a work retreat in May 2016 where 15 of us were staying in the 4 apartments of Villa Antares. We arrived to find them in perfect condition, and our hosts Vedrana and Ivan were extremely helpful to us in settling in. The location is superb - we were right on the coast, with spectacular views from the apartments, and we went swimming often despite the cold temperature of the sea! Pisak is a quiet, charming place, with a very good restaurant within 10 minutes walking distance from the Villa, where we had some very nice fish dinners.. We were also not far away to other places, such as Brela (which is 10 minutes away by car), where we went open sea kayaking and snorkelling on one day, and on another day we went on a boat trip to the nearby islands of Hvar and Brac, which we very much enjoyed! The facilities were also well suited to a work retreat - we made our presentations on the terrace of the ground floor apartment using one of the TVs from the apartment, and even when the weather was not the best, it was still suitable for this purpose, since the terrace is partially covered. Overall, we would highly recommend this property to anyone wanting to stay in Croatia, it is hard to fault anything during our time there, and we all had a fantastic time!!

A fabulously positioned apartment. Good location for exploring the area. Peaceful and quiet with a lovely short coastal walk to town. Only steps to the water and ground floor apartment has large sun terrace to relax on. Clean, good facilities and owners are nice people. We would recommend it and thank Vedrana and Ivo for sharing their paradise! (travellers from Australia)

Villa Antares has a magical location being literally right by the sea......it has sweeping and stunning views across the bay towards the island of Brac. The sea is literally a few steps down from the apartment and is so, so clear. Our children (teenage girls) loved snorkelling, swimming and generally relaxing at the water's edge. When it got too hot they could just saunter up a few steps back to the apartment, cool off and relax with free wifi etc. In the evenings you could walk to the village and sample one of two restaurants-both very good and very reasonable especially if you like fish. We spent one day white water rafting which was not too far away and a great day out......we definitely want to come back next year and explore a little more. The owners are very friendly and welcoming and happy to help in any way they can. The apartment is clean and has all that you need. The whole experience was really positive- and we hope to come back next year!

Our family with three teenagers had the top floor ofthe house with wonderful terrace overlooking the sea.The water was cristal clear and the surrondings perfect för sunbading and relaxing. The apartment was perfect for us, and our hosts very nice and helpful. The village Pisak is very peaceful with some resturants, one bakery, small supermarket and a nice place to buy fruit and vegetables. We had a rental car and drove along the Makarska riviera where there where many places and beaches to visit. We will definatly be back and we recommend Villa Antares to everybody who want a perfect vacation!

We had a Great stay at Villa Antares. If You are looking for a relaxing place, This is where to go. The apartment is very comfortable, it has everything You need. The location is just amazing. A few steps to the crystal clear sea. The owners Vedrana and Ivan are very nice and helpful. Pisak is just lovely with its small but good tavernas. If you need a bigger town, Makarska is just 20 minutes away. This was our first vacation in Croatia, and we would love to come back to Pisak and Villa Antares. Julia and Jan from Norway

Wir haben 1 Woche verbracht - die Lage ist Super, die Hausbesitzer waren sehr, sehr nett. Apartment sehr sauber. Wir waren sehr zufrieden.

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans la Villa Antares en septembre 2014. Le paradis sur terre avec les pieds dans l’eau ! La maison située au bord de l’eau permet un vrai repos pour les occidents stressés que nous sommes. L’appartement possède une terrasse avec une vue imprenable sur la mer adriatique, un vrai régal au réveil !!! Nous avons même eu la chance d’assister à une danse des dauphins un matin. L’appartement est très confortable, bien équipé, propre et joliment décoré. Les propriétaires Ivo et Vedrana sont très accueillants, sympathiques, et toujours de bons conseils. Pisak est un petit village de pêcheurs bien situé pour sillonner les alentours et visiter la côte dalmate (Split, Trogir, Makarska, Brela, île de Brac ….). Nous reviendrons dans cette location très bientôt et la recommandons à tous nos amis.

Wir verbrachten die ersten beiden Oktoberwochen 2014 in der Vila Antares in Pisak und wir würden für diesen Aufenthalt gerne 6 Sterne vergeben! Kurzfassung unserer Bewertung: Wir wohnten in einem tollen Haus mit phantastischen Terrassen von denen aus wir Delfine und Thunfische beobachten konnten, Meer und Strand direkt am Haus sind spitze und wir erlebten 14 wundervolle Tage!Wir danken den Vermietern Vedrana und Ivo ganz herzlich für einen tollen Aufenthalt in ihrem Haus. Schon die Anreise war einfach und gut beschrieben. Und der Urlaub begann sofort nach der Ankunft. Wir wurden sehr nett und freundlich von den Vermietern begrüßt und ein gesondert gewünschter Wäscheständer wurde sofort und freundlich zur Verfügung gestellt. Das Haus: Das ganze Haus, die Terrassen, die Treppen und unser Appartment sind vorbildlich gepflegt, sauber und sehr schön anzusehen. Das betrifft das gesamte Grundstück. Die Küstenstrasse ist weit entfernt und liegt wesentlich höher als das Dorf. Dadurch KEINE Strassengeräusche am Haus oder am Wasser. Das Appartment (Nr. 4): Das gemietete Appartment ist vorbildlich ausgestattet. Schlafzimmer und Kinderzimmer sind sehr schön eingerichtet und liebevoll gestaltet. Alle Räume sind sehr sauber. Die Küche unseres Appartments hat Vollausstattung mit allen notwendigen Küchenutensilien, mehr als ausreichender Menge an Geschirr, modernem Herd und Backofen, neuwertiger Kühlschrank und - was uns sehr gut gefallen hat - Spülmaschine. Besonders erwähnenswert: Aus allen Wasserhähnen im Appartment bekommt man bestes Trinkwasser. Die Terrasse: Chique und stabile Terrassenmöbel laden ein zum Verweilen. Schon das Frühstück mit direktem Blick auf das Wasser ist jeden Tag ein Genuss. Die Terrasse ist sehr gross, zum Appartment 4 gehört ein großer Bereich vor der Küche und eine kleine schattigere Extraterrasse vor den Schlafräumen (sehr schön!). Auch die zusätzliche, allgemein nutzbare Terrasse ist sehr gut ausgestattet mit Liegen und Sitzmöglichkeiten. Das Meer: Direkt am Haus gibt es mehrere sehr schöne Schwimmstellen mit verschiedenem Untergrund. Auch wenn wir länger überlegen: Wir können NICHTS negatives berichten. Für uns war der Urlaub ein absoluter Volltreffer. Sie können sich sicher vorstellen, wo wir 2015 in den ersten 2 Oktoberwochen zu finden sind? Richtig. Appartment 4 ist dann schon belegt….durch uns.

We'd heard a lot about Croatia and were very much looking forward to our 7 day visit and we weren't disappointed. It was an absolutely lovely location with beautiful scenery and the owners are very friendly and helpful with good communication throughout our booking. The property sits on the coastline and you can literally swim right in front of the apartment in the lovely clear waters. The small hamlet of Pisak is ideal for a restful week away with limited restaurants in the town itself but when you find one which barbecues fresh fish on the seafront to the highest quality why would you want to go any ware else! There's also a bakery in town and another bar and everyone was very friendly. There are plenty of other beautiful towns in the area of course and if you have a car you can enjoy driving up and down the coast to visit. The apartment was clean and comfortable but you will need to be prepared to climb some steps to access the property but it's all worth it. I wouldn't hesitate returning again.

Es war bereits unser dritte Urlaub in Villa Antares, Apartment A4. Wir lieben diesen Ort. Wir fahren immer Anfang September dahin. In Pisak ist es dann sehr ruhig. Das Wetter war bis jetzt immer sehr gut, Meer sehr sauber, Wasser warm. Ich würde es für Leute empfehlen die Ruhe suchen auch für Familien allerdings sollten die Kinder bereits Schwimmer sein, da die Küste relativ steil ist und Wasser gleich ziemlich tief. Ein Boot - Seekajak, Kanadier, oder ähnliches ist zu empfehlen. Man hat die Möglichkeit einige einsame Strände mit dem Boot zu erreichen. Die Hausbesitzer sind sehr nett und hilfsbereit.

We thought the location of Villa Antares looked good on the website but the reality was overwhelming- there is a fantastic panoramic view which we enjoyed from the magnificent outdoor terrace. Access to the sea was via steps from the terrace and within a minute you can enjoy bathing in the Adriatic. 16 of our family aged 16 years upwards stayed here for one week and had an amazing time. The property was clean and well maintained with all facilities you would expect. Pisak is small and self-contained and you don't need to go anywhere else. You would need a car though for exploring areas nearby. The owners were extremely helpful and hospitable and always on hand or easy to contact if we needed anything. I would highly recommend Villa Antares and Pisak for a relaxing holiday.
