Notes: The large fully-equipped kitchen will cater for all your needs from a simple breakfast on one of the terraces to a dinner party for up to ten people. We sometimes use The Captain's House as a family home and we love to cook and entertain so the kitchen is very well equipped with the items you will want to use. The Captain's House has three interlinked terraces. The first is for al-fresco dining with shade provided by a traditional pergola. A bridge leads to the second terrace and from there steps take you up to the flat roof terrace where there are lounging chairs for the sun worshippers. Additionally there is a stone balcony on the top floor. Each of the terraces and the balcony have superb views of the Adriatic, the nearby islands, Korcula Town and Mount Ilija.

'We had a very lovely stay at The Captain's House. The property is really beautiful and the views are amazing. I would highly recommend the villa to anyone looking for a peaceful family holiday.' Pamela Ognjenovic

'You have done a superb job of restoring and furnishing this place. Spectular. Unlike so many rental properties, you have put quality into everything -- from the construction to the furnishings -- and it shows.' Bill Howell

'Croatia is beautiful! Peljesac is gorgeous, peaceful. The house is a wonderful 'castle'. Very, very good job in renovating it, that made our holiday. Magnificent views. We hope to have a chance to see the 'castle' again.'

'The house and the nature around it was beautiful. We had a wonderful time here. People in Viganj and neighborhood are very kind.'

'What a great house, loved swimming here and hope to come again.'

'We had a wonderful time, especially the wakeboarding, swimming and the food.'

'Fabulous week, we shall return.'
