Villa Kora is one of a kind, a beautiful modern villa with incredible views. Located in Kostrena, a five-minute drive from the centre of Rijeka and just 100 meters from the sea, we cannot recommend this stunning property enough! As you approach the property, its stone walls are broken up by vast windows, reflecting the stunning views back at you, so it feels as though the ocean, trees and luscious greenery are all part of the architecture. A vibrant garden sweeps around the villa with Mediterranean greenery in every direction you look. On the ground floor there is a fantastic open plan living space. This vast and bright room inspires creativity, social living and creates an atmosphere of complete tranquillity. The large windows each frame a separate view, with the ocean tucked behind the sofa, whilst blue skies and treetops stand out by the dining table. Indoor plants draw nature within the space, whilst sliding patio doors combine the indoor and outdoor living into one. We were amazed by this contemporary living space, and we are sure you will be too, with ample room to dine together in the evenings, lounge on the sofas and entertain guests during your stay. The kitchen is slick and modern, with all the utilities you could need to prepare your favourite meals. A grand spiral staircase leads you upstairs. On the upper floor, there is a master bedroom with a stylish en-suite, as well as a small bedroom with a sofa bed and wardrobe. The third bedroom offers two spaces, with a library/office with a sofa bed and a bedroom with a large double bed. This elegant room also boasts a big balcony with a garden and beautiful view of the sea. Outside, Villa Kora makes the most of its hillside location. The private pool sits poised between olive trees for a magical feel and the garden stretches around the villa making the most of the views. There is a big garage for two cars so you can travel around Croatia exploring its beautiful areas. A charming dining area sits under the cover of the first-floor balcony, with deck chairs positioned so you can soak up the Croatian sun all day long!
