Villa Nai 3.3
FODOR’S EXPERT REVIEW
Privacy and peace are abundant at this family-run island haven, featuring eight luxurious rooms and suites with outdoor terraces that overlook panoramic views of the surrounding olive groves or the Adriatic Sea. The water, as well as the nearest island of Krknata, are at least partially visible from five of its eight rooms, all of which come with floor-to-ceiling windows, spacious bathrooms with chic marble finishes, and deliciously comfortable king beds.
The onsite restaurant offers breakfast, lunch, and dinner that utilize local ingredients and produce grown on the property: The freshly-squeezed apple juice tastes like it’s straight from an apple orchard, the homegrown arugula is firm to the teeth, and the fish preserves the taste of the sea. The olive trees that populate the nearby hills are used to produce robust, award-winning olive oil onsite, which makes an excellent companion to your bread.
Excursions to the nearby Kornati islands—an absolute must while on Dugi Otok—can be seamlessly arranged, as well as a complimentary transfer to and from the nearby Zaglav Port (request in advance). The spa is petite, but the resident massage therapist packs a healthy punch, and the olive paste used in the treatments provides face-tingling pleasure.
