2 families, 10 altogether, stayed comfortably in Villa Ella. The villa itself, the pool, the view and surroundings are all beautiful.Hosts were communicative and helpful throughout our stay.We wrestled with decision to have a car on the island and opted to have one car. There is not much to drive to on the island, some of the roads are quite narrow, and the Villa Ella staff was happy to arrange rides whenever needed, so if we stayed here again we would not bring a car. Groceries on the island are very limited, so I recommend stocking up in Dubrovnik before taking the ferry over, or utilizing the grocery service.
