Villa Danika is a sleek two-story home finessed with architectural prestige and airy, minimal living spaces close to the Bay of Kvarner in northern Croatia. Casting an impressive silhouette, bearing all the hallmarks of innovative designer panache, this ultra-contemporary home is filled with natural daylight, thanks to the linear design and glass-fronted walls offering far-reaching views.
The outdoor spaces are executed for stylish outdoor living in mind, with a natural indoor-outdoor interplay. The generously sized pool glistens in an elegant terrace, adorned with indulgent loungers and day beds, setting the scene for post-swim breakfasts or evening drinks as the sun softens over the green vistas. Dining alfresco will be a charming affair, with a modernist dining pavilion and barbecue. Perched high above the wooded plains overlooking a magnificent seascape, this home is a veritable haven of unparalleled style and quality – guests would be forgiven for thinking they had wandered into the pages of an interior’s magazine.
Slipping into the bubbling jacuzzi at the end of a busy day of sight-seeing will hit the right note or enjoying a game of pool with a cool drink. The spa room is finished with fragrant plants and a flat-screen television for a spa-like experience.
Open-plan living spaces offers avant-garde styling and contemporary verve. With plush fabrics, accents of teal and charcoal and a modern fireplace along with sublime views, this is a memory-making abode. The open kitchen-dining offers sociable living, with a hanging chair and vibrant, bold art choices.
Each of the well-proportioned bedrooms has its own accents of color and unique touches, along with hotel-quality linen and unadulterated serenity. With a building-length balcony, guests can simply wander out for morning coffee and enjoy the views.
Villa Danika ticks every style box while offering a warmly inviting home-like experience, displaying impeccable attention to detail and a wonderfully green setting close to the beautiful Kvarner coastline.

Location:
Villa Danika is nestled In the hamlet Spinčići, 1.5km from the center of Matulji, and 6km from the elegant riviera town of Opatija, on the Bay of Kvarner.
Situated at the foot of the Ucka mountain, this stunning home is 12 km south-west of Rijeka, and provides an ideal base to enjoy northern Croatia and the Slovenian borders.
One of Croatia’s best-kept secrets, Ucka Nature Park, hosts 160km² of mountains and green open plateau. It is a beautifully remote spot and on clear days, Vojak (1401m), its highest peak, offers sublime views of the Italian Alps and the Bay of Trieste in neighboring Italy.
The beautiful city of Opatija is known for its elegant style and sea views. The ‘lungomare’ is the 12km seaside promenade, constructed in 1889, which stretches all the way to Lovran, winding its way past the belle-epoque villas that nod to the town’s glamorous past as being holiday choice to the Austro-Hungarian elite. It is a vibrant place brimming with history and the charm of a bygone era.
Rijeka (meaning river in Croatian), is a mix of Italian, Austrian and Croatian influence. Rijeka has a major harbor and offers attractions from a top-notch contemporary art museum to a stately palace from the Habsburg days. The Korzo is the main pedestrianized sea-front street which is a buzzing mix of shops, eateries and symbolic landmarks.
