You arrive in Vrbnik as the light turns gold. Below:
the old town, the sea, the Adriatic stretching west.
This is your view. Not from a terrace — from every window.
Villa Manatis is the most architecturally considered property in Vrbnik — clean geometry, full-height glazing, and materials chosen for warmth as much as precision. Three en-suite bedrooms on the upper floor each open onto a panoramic balcony. Below them, a living area designed for the kind of evenings that make a week feel like a month.
The heated 12-metre pool stretches across the garden with a shallow lounging area at one end. Adjacent, the glass-fronted pool house contains a Finnish sauna — through its wall, the pool and Vrbnik beyond. Below the pool, a private sand court: volleyball, bocce, barefoot afternoons. The only one of its kind on Krk island.

Benjamin and his family commissioned one of Croatia's most prominent architecture studios to design Villa Manatis — then oversaw every detail personally: the choice of materials, the furniture from their workshop in Austria, the placement of each element to frame the sea view precisely. When you write to us, you reach the family. When something matters, we are there.

The rate includes the heated 12m infinity pool, glass-fronted pool house sauna, sand court, professional table tennis table, outdoor kitchen and BBQ, welcome basket with local Žlahtina wine, housekeeping on request, final cleaning, water and electricity, high-speed Wi-Fi, and private parking. Tourist tax (€2/person/night) is paid locally.
The sand court is a private, levelled surface filled with fine sand below the pool terrace. Guests use it for beach volleyball, bocce, or simply barefoot lounging. It is the only facility of this kind at any villa on Krk island — and one of the things guests mention most in reviews. No equipment hire needed: net and balls are provided.
Adjacent to the 12m heated pool, the pool house is a dedicated structure with a Finnish sauna behind a full glass wall that faces the pool and the sea. You can see the water from inside the sauna. It is available year-round and is included in the rental price with no extra charge.
Minimum stay is 7 nights in peak season (July–August). Shorter stays of 3–5 nights are often possible in shoulder season (April–June, September–October) — write to us to check availability.
The Adriatic is about 300m as the crow flies. On foot the path takes around 500m (roughly 7 minutes). The hidden pebble beach tucked below Vrbnik old town is around 800m on foot — well worth the walk.
Yes — Manatis and Moana are adjacent, separated by a single gate in the same ancient olive grove. Together they accommodate up to 14 guests, each villa keeping its own 12m pool, sauna, and full kitchen. Combined rate from €1,140/night. One enquiry books both — .
Exceptionally so. The heated pool has a shallow lounging area. The sand court provides safe outdoor play space. The fourth bedroom has a single bed — ideal for a teenager or additional guest. Baby cot and high chair available on request. The table tennis table is a hit with older children and teenagers.
The pool at Villa Manatis is 12 metres long and fully heated — usable from spring through to late autumn. It sits on the main terrace with a view towards the sea and Vrbnik old town. The adjacent pool house contains the Finnish sauna with its distinctive full-glass wall facing the water.
Villa Manatis has 3 en-suite bedrooms plus a fourth bedroom with a single bed — ideal for a teenager, additional adult, or solo guest. The villa has 4 bathrooms and sleeps up to 7 guests. The fourth bedroom can also serve as a private home office or reading room.
