Fabulous beach front gem

Great little apartment in an idyllic location with it's own little beach and sun loungers! Natasha and Joe were wonderful hosts and nothing was too much trouble. The apartment is one of the best equipped that we have stayed in, including really nice touches like tea lights (practical stuff too including laundry powder!) It was also immaculately clean and tidy. On arrival there was water and beer in the fridge and a lovely plate of local ham and cheese. There is a stunning seating area in your own private garden overlooking the sea! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this apartment and am looking forward to returning next year.

Cozy Oceanfront Stay

Natasha is a lovely host and really went above and beyond to make our stay special. Check in was seamless with good directions and she even had a bottle of sparkling wine as a congrats for our recent wedding. The place is cozy and was perfect for the two of us. The ocean access is directly across the street and it was awesome to have, especially on hot days and there is a beach access just down the street (bring jelly shoes). The area is a bit sleepy and mostly filled with campers and local summer home owners but it’s a great spot if you’re looking to day trip to Korcula or even see some of the beautiful wineries throughout the Peninsula. Natasha and Joe live on the property and were happy to help with suggestions and even lending us personal bikes for use. It was a quiet and cozy stay and a lovely place to relax.

A wonderful magical place to stay

Coming from the US and never having been to Croatia before, we really didn't know what to expect. We were traveling with our daughter, son in law and two young grandchildren. All three generations had a wonderful time and loved the accommodations. The apartment was spotlessly clean and had plenty of room for all of us. The (rocky) beach was steps away from the front door and the crystal clear water was ideal for swimming and playing with the children. Natasha and Joe were wonderful hosts and had helpful suggestions for places to eat and things to do. Korcula was a short ferry ride away and a great day's activity. Boat and bike rental were close by and watching (or doing) sail and kite surfing out the front door was a treat. We highly recommend a stay here.

Peaceful location with gorgeous views of private beach

We stayed here for a week with two children (7 and 9) and had a wonderful time! Natasha and Jozo were very gracious hosts, discrete but available to answer any questions about the surrounding area. Jozo was kind enough inflate the boat we bought for the kids and even lent us paddles during our stay. Natasha welcomed us with some cheese and ham upon our arrival and spoiled us with some fresh figs from a neighbor's garden - delicious! The apartment is very clean, well equipped and nicely decorated (just like in the pictures). We spent evenings under the pergola watching the sunset over the ocean and grilling on the bbq. We really enjoyed the small private beach just in front of the house across from a quiet street (bring your swimshoes and snorkling gear!). It was a luxury to have our own small jetty and peaceful beach area all to ourselves in the midst of August (high season!). We don't surf but it definitely is the place to be! Try the kayaking at Donkey in Vinganj and don't forget to stop by for homemade ice-cream next-door (new flavors every day and the best we had in Croatia)! We enjoyed the Kuciste local town festival one evening, right by the beautiful waterfront by a pretty old church. And don't miss a visit of Korkula - the boat leaves directly from Kuciste at around 7pm and comes back around 11pm, just perfect for a sunset evening stroll and dinner in the old part of town. A wonderful experience and I can highly recommend it! Many thanks Natasha and Jozo for everything!

Lovely and relaxing holiday in beautiful Croatia

This lovely apartment in a small village in Croatia is a place to come back to, the very literal definition of a "home away from home". Situated in a calm, relaxed, small, town in Croatia, with direct access to a small beach, and plenty of opportunity for Windsurfing, it is my family's favorite vacation destination over the past 5 years. The apartment itself is impeccably clean, and offers everything that one would need in terms of comfort and utility, which immediately made us feel very at home. Furthermore, there is a wonderful little pavilion in the front yard, that is at the guests' disposal, which offers shade during the midday heat, and also allowed to eat our self-cooked meals with direct sea-view. Additionally, as a Windsurfing family, we highly appreciated that there was only a 10 meter walk directly into the clear blue sea where we could begin surfing immediately. Hence, it's important to note, that there is regular wind in Kuciste, which is quite suitable for surfers, but even for non-surfers it can be very welcome as a contrast to the strong heat in Croatia during the summer season. The area itself is very quiet, but it therefore really allows for a vacation from the turbulence of one's everyday life where one is at complete peace. However, we also went to nearby villages such as Korcula, Orebic, and Viganj which are all quite accessible and offer cafes and small stores for the occasional ice-cream and day trips. Last but not least, the owners, Natasha and Jozo, are very welcoming and accommodating. They were always willing to answer our questions and suggest the best places to visit, where buy fresh fish, or where to find new surf equipment in the case that something broke. We would definitely recommend this apartment to anyone who likes a calm holiday in a beautiful environment due to its flawless cleanliness, welcoming hosts, and priceless location.

Amaizing property

Our stay with Natasha and Joe exceeded all of our expectations. The property was perfect and they were accommodating and extreamly helpfull. We hired Joe to take us on a private winery tour and we had an exceptional day. I would recommend this property to anyone. The apartment is bigger than it looks in the photos. The outside area is delightful.

Beautiful spacious apartment with wonderful view

Apartment was very clean and more spacious than anticipated. Plenty of kitchen equipment. The shower/laundry room was extremely useful as it had a big butler sink which was handy for washing snorkelling equipment and beach shoes. Very relaxing but there are numerous places to explore if you prefer and don’t mind driving some very windy roads. Natasha is very friendly and even gave us some of her daughter’s birthday cake.

Lovely apartment with cool garden and beach

Brilliant neat and spacious apartment. Very lovely and generous hosts. Reality surpassed the listing and photos and the shaded garden space with view to Korcula was heaven on hot days. The road in front was really quiet so the little beach felt totally part of the space, lovely to swim/snorkel or lie on sun loungers. Handy shop in the village centre and loads of windsurf and SUP hire within short walk.

Wonderful house

Wonderful house facing the sea, on the very first row. We did swim in front of the house and lay on chairs available right on the beach! We had also a lunch in the nice garden of the house, with a table under a green foliage. Kitesurf and windsurf school are less than 2km away. Easy trips in Korcula island thanks to the ferry in the next city (Orebic). We appreciated the spacious apartment on the front floor of the house, it is the perfect place for a family with 3 (even 4 if we had one more :) ) children with comfortable and modern equipments: kitchen, 2 bathrooms, comfortable beds, parking in the garden, ... The host is really nice and, noteworthy, a native english speaker! We highly recommend a stay in this apartment and in this area.

Beautifully presented apartment & perfect location

This apartment is an ideal place to enjoy the unspoilt and quiet charm of Kuciste. Our hosts were very helpful but respected their guests privacy. Windsurfing and swimming are just a few metres away. There is all one could need in the apartment and it is perfectly presented. There is a pretty shaded area at the front to enjoy lunch or dinner and loungers for a relax on the beach after windsurfing, swimming, cycling or walking. There is a shop for everyday needs a short stroll away and plenty of restaurants for all tastes within easy reach. We highly recommend a stay at Natasha and Joe's.

3 Wochen in Kuciste

Wir haben drei wunderschöne Wochen in der Ferienwohnung von Natasha und Joe verlebt. Nun drängt es uns, diesen beiden lieben Gastgebern von Herzen zu danken. Es war sehr, sehr angenehm in ihrem Haus, ihrem Garten, überhaupt in Kuciste und der näheren Umgebung. Besonders hervorheben möchten wir die ungezwungene Nähe zur Familie, sowie den lockeren Kontakt, der mitunter nur aus einem freundlichen Zuwinken in der Einfahrt, einem fröhlichen Gruß am Morgen oder auch einem Smalltalk auf dem Hof bestand. Bei Anliegen und Fragen zeigte sich dann aber sofort das Entgegenkommen und die Freundlichkeit der Gastgeber in Auskünften, Ratschlägen und praktischer Hilfe. So haben wir viel über das einstige Leben, die Kultur und die maritime Tradition der Region erfahren und Tips für Ausflüge über das Übliche hinaus bekommen. Es soll auch erwähnt werden, dass es von unserer wunderbaren Gartenlaube 50 Schritte nach Osten ein nettes Resaurant mit guter preiswerter Kost und einen herrlichen Blick auf Korcula (Klein-Dubrovnik) gibt, 1000 m nach Westen sich Post, ein weiteres Restaurant und ein gut sortierter Kaufladen aneinander reihen und an den Stränden von Kuciste und Viganj sich Gelegeheiten und Anbieter für gut ein Dutzend Wassersportmöglichkeiten gegenseitig übertreffen, na und für Radfahren und Wandern bestehen ohnehin beste Voraussetzungen. Mit einem Kleinbus haben wir uns vom Gartentor zu einem Ausflug nach Dubrovnik via Ston abholen lassen, mehrmals das gegenüberliegende Korcula besucht und auch das stille Fischerdorf Loviste am Westende der Halbinsel erkundet. Zu einem abendlichen Volksfest der besonderen Art nahmen uns Natasha und Joe in das verlassene Gebirgsdorf Nakovanj mit. Der Rest war Wandern, Baden, Sonnen und Abhängen. Das Wetter war ausgesprochen schön (September), fast immer purer Sonnenschein, das Wasser angenehm warm und kristallklar. Es gab zwei Regentage in drei Wochen. Wir kommen ins Schwärmen, was den Rahmen zu sprengen droht ... ...also möchten wir abschließend nochmals der Familie Perkusic für ihre herzliche Gastfreundschaft und das liebevoll und zweckmäßig gestaltete Appartement danken und können diese Adresse nur wärmstens weiterempfehlen!
