Villa Mara: Your Perfect Retreat on the Enchanting Island of Korčula
Discover the authentic charm of Villa Mara, a beautifully restored stone house located in the picturesque village of Žrnovo, just 2 km from Korčula Town. Set on the enchanting island of Korčula, the villa offers a wonderful combination of traditional Mediterranean character, cultural heritage and modern comfort.
Spread across three floors, Villa Mara can accommodate up to 6 guests in comfortable double bedrooms.
The carefully renovated house combines its original rustic character with contemporary amenities, including a fully equipped kitchen, cosy living room and 2 bathrooms.
One of the villa’s most charming features is its two beautiful terraces. One offers a picturesque view over the village of Žrnovo, while the terrace at the front of the house creates an inviting setting for breakfast, cocktails or a romantic dinner beneath the Mediterranean atmosphere.
The renovation was carried out with great respect for the building’s original character and with a strong focus on sustainable design. Rather than hiding the imperfections and traces of the past, they were carefully incorporated into the renovation and transformed into distinctive architectural details. Traditional stone and rustic elements blend naturally with modern techniques and contemporary touches, creating a unique balance between old and new.
Villa Mara is an inviting retreat for those looking for peace, authenticity and a genuine connection with the island, while still enjoying modern comforts. Whether you wish to explore Korčula, discover the surrounding natural beauty or simply slow down and relax, this charming stone house offers a truly memorable island experience.

Amazing stay with my family. We had 6 adults staying and there was plenty of room for all of us. Linda was very responsive over texts before we arrived. She gave us a number for a taxi we could use to get us from the ferry port to the villa and also gave me recommendations for dinner nearby. She also met us at the villa and gave us a tour. Everything was as pictured and super clean. It was very quiet location but there was a local cafe which was a bar at night. Easy to get into korcula old town by taxi or bus. Also 20-30 min walk to La Banya beach club. Would recommend to others. Thanks so much for our stay
Samantha Thorn, September 24th, 2026Amazing stay, beautiful villa and great hosts. Local recommendations were brilliant too.
Sally Davies, August 17th, 2026Absolutely lovely villa with 3 large bedrooms, and a private pool. Very well equipped and owners kindly left wine and beer for our arrival. It felt like a home away from home. In walking distance to two lovely traditional restaurants and a local winery. Village is a 15e taxi ride from Korcula. You can walk down to Korcula in 35mins and La banya beach in 25mins but if you want to explore the island it is worth hiring a car for a day or 2.
Daniel Sears, July 17th, 2026Quiet and removed from the touristy areas, but still close to the grocery store and beaches. Nice pool and well equipped for cooking some of your own meals. Very nicely finished inside and out. Great and helpful host.
Blake Blackshear, July 7th, 2026We had a wonderful stay and would happily come back. Linda is an exceptional host. She was incredibly attentive, gave us fantastic local recommendations, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay.
The house is spacious, beautifully appointed, and full of thoughtful touches. We were welcomed with bottles of wine, the kitchen was exceptionally well stocked, and the quality of the linens and towels was outstanding. Everything was spotless and smelled wonderful, which made the house feel even more inviting.
The pool was perfect for cooling off after a day of exploring. The location is ideal if you have a car, as the area's main attractions, beaches, and restaurants are all within an easy drive. At the same time, the peaceful setting of the small village was exactly what we were looking for and made it easy to relax.
Overall, this was a fantastic experience, largely thanks to Linda's outstanding hospitality. She truly is a Superhost in every sense of the word.
We couldn’t have asked for a better stay at Villa Mara. We spent six nights here with family, and it was simply stunning - beautiful, relaxing, and thoughtfully designed in every detail. The villa itself is gorgeous and incredibly comfortable, tucked away in a charming hillside village just an 8 minute drive from town. From the luxurious pool and stylish outdoor spaces to the well-equipped, modern kitchen and exceptionally comfortable beds, everything about the home feels both elegant and welcoming. Each room has its own air-conditioning unit, allowing everyone to set their ideal sleeping temperature - an added touch of comfort we really appreciated. Our host, Linda, was absolutely wonderful. She greeted us with genuine warmth and had stocked the fridge with fresh food and delicious local wine - kindness beyond our expectations. Her communication was excellent throughout our stay, and she provided plenty of great local recommendations for restaurants and sights. We loved every moment of our time at Villa Mara and can’t wait to return someday!
Melanie Cicvaric, October 22nd, 2025Unser Aufenthalt in der Casa Rustica war ganz wunderbar. Wir waren als fünfköpfige Familie dort und haben alles vorgefunden, was es braucht, um eine herrliche Woche auf Korçula zu verbringen. Das Haus lässt keine Wünsche offen und die Gastgeberin hat uns sehr viele gute Tipps für schöne Buchten, Restaurant etc. gegeben. Man kann auch prima den Tag daheim verbringen. Der Pool ist herrlich erfrischend und man hat genügend Platz sich auf der Terrasse zu entspannen. Wir können das Haus jedem wärmstens empfehlen.
Alexander von Glasow, August 10th, 2025Our stay was absolutely amazing for a group trip! The house is beautifully restored and exactly as expected. Our host Linda was also extremely helpful with local recommendations . Thank you!!
Carrie Mahoney Hellem, September 26th, 2024The house was wonderful - stylish and well thought out and also really homely. We loved the outside area for meals and chilling out and the owners had thought of everything to make it a really comfortable stay. Our 3 children, 15, 13 and 11 thought it was awesome too and they can be difficult to please . Great location in a lovely village with a small supermarket a short walk away. Tomislav gave us great recommendations for local restaurants, beaches and islands to visit. We had a really amazing holiday.
Viveca Stewart, August 31st, 2024A wonderful week spent Korcula. An amazing house away from the busy town, a real hideaway in the hills but only 5mins to Korcula town, beaches and more. Would certainly return. Linda was a great host and could not have been more welcoming or helpful during our stay.
Jacob Leadley, August 23rd, 2024A really lovely holiday house. It has been very recently refurbished and is immaculate; finished to a beautiful standard, so it feels more like a boutique hotel rather than someone's home. Lindy, the owner, was incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay. She offered great recommendations for our journey to and from the airport as well as around the area itself. A lovely place to unwind and great base from which to explore Korcula.
Rebecca Holton, July 29th, 2024The villa is absolutely gorgeous: really beautifully decorated, spacious and well-appointed with pretty much every amenity you could think of. We really liked the location as it's very peaceful, with walkable supermarket and restaurants, but so easy to drive or get a taxi to Korcula Town or elsewhere (we hired a car). Linda was a very helpful host and available for any questions. A very special place!
Laura Brooks, July 24th, 2024Superb! We wanted a luxury villa for what might be our final family holiday before our three student-age children start leaving home. Villa Mara exceeded all our expectations - we were all delighted by the house and the fact that Linda (the owner) seemed to have thought of everything. It was immaculately clean, spacious, comfortable, with high quality fittings and furniture to make our stay effortless and relaxing. Linda welcomed us and then left us to get on with our holiday - later we found she had left a generous amount of supplies for us to enjoy. Wonderfully wide and comfortable beds meant we all slept really well. The house was in a working village, with supermarket and a good rustic grill-restaurant a couple of minutes away. We loved drinking the local Tasovac wine (which is delicious) from the terrace with the view of the vegetable gardens and church every evening, and spent days lounging about the pool. We also walked to the beach resort La Banya (downhill 40minutes) but took taxis for all other journeys. A taxi for 5 people cost 15Euro into Korcula Town. This villa was outside our normal budget but I am so glad we spent the money. I cannot recommend Villa Mara enough. We have been back home for nearly two weeks now and and I will still be dreaming about it for a lot longer.
Alison Taylor, July 24th, 2024The villa was stunning! It had everything you needed, very beautifully finished in the gorgeous town of Zrnovo. It was still close enough that we could walk into the old town. Also, Linda was an incredible owner and very helpful with any and every question we had! We will 100% rebook this place if next time we’re in korcula.
Abigail Geddes, June 1st, 2024The villa was stunning! It had everything you needed, very beautifully finished in the gorgeous town of Zrnovo.

Abigail Geddes, May 31st, 2024Beautiful villa, lovely bedrooms, comfy beds, well equipped bathrooms and great air conditioning throughout. Fantastic outside dining space with BBQ and sink, brilliant pool. Great local restaurants, a cafe and a supermarket within 3 minute walk Would highly recommend and hope to return.
Charlie Pascoe, September 15th, 2023The facility itself. Great contact with the owner. Proximity to restaurants and vineyards. In general, everything :)
Adam, September 2nd, 2023We had a fantastic time at Villa Mara - it is a beautiful house with excellent facilities and the photos don’t do it justice. The hosts went out of their way to make us feel at home, with lots of help and recommendations. It is beautifully decorated inside and outside, and the pool is an added bonus. The villa is in a little village in the hills above Korcula town, and hence away from the hustle and bustle, and quiet and peaceful as a result. We didn’t have transport but taxis are easy to come by and inexpensive. There is a small supermarket and an excellent restaurant that are each just a 1 minute walk away.
James, August 24th, 2023Fantastic house, perfect in every detail, best hosts ever
Fabio Marabini, August 13th, 2023Very nice house, very nice and tastefully furnished and a very nice garden with pool
Philippe, ch, July 23rd, 2023We had a great holiday, villa is as described, even more beautiful in real life than on pictures. It offers everything you need for a relaxing holiday, view from the pool area and terrace are amazing. Place is charming, traditional Dalmatian, you can explore the island, everything is near, great sand beaches or pebble beach everyone can find something. Would highly recommend
Neli, June 24th, 2023Our experience was amazing! The property exceeded our expectations and looked even better in person, especially the pool. Being the first guests to stay at the house, we received a warm welcome with a thoughtful gift package. It was a wonderful surprise! Linda and Stjepko did everything to ensure our comfort. Highly recommended! We loved it and we are coming back as soon as possible!!!
Everything was great!
