We were drawn to Bol because we love the sea and it is a perfect place to take a beach vacation and go scuba-diving, swimming, boating, water kayaking and windsurfing. We love nature and appreciate the pristine nature of the Croatian countryside but wanted to be at the hub of things and Bol is the activities centre for Brac. Here you can play tennis, go climbing, cycling, walking, flying from Brac Airport or just laze on the Golden Horn [Zlatni Rat], an idyllic beach a short distance away. Once the big yachts come into the harbour in July/August the town gets really quite lively and revelry can continue into the early hours. However, the house is equipped with its original windows [now double glazed] together with secondary double glazing to ensure that guests can sleep with minimal disturbance.

Air conditioning keeps the house cool.

For guests with boats, a berth in Bol Harbour can be arranged. 

We fell in love with Harbour House because, although right by the sea (there are panoramic views from every room, and especially from the large terrace) the house feels safe, solid and friendly. Built of Brac stone like the White House in Washington, it is a famous landmark and often appears in photos of Bol. Its simplicity is appealing because, although not especially large (108sq.m.) its construction makes it feel spacious and airy. If you love the sea you will love Harbour House. 

As well as the local market, supermarket, pharmacy, post office and bakery, for those interested in sea sports the house is close by the local diving centre. The Tourist Office is close by, and all around are little bars, restaurants, shops selling jewellery, swimwear and hand-made artefacts. Bol is close to the most famous beach in Croatia, the Golden Horn beach. This is approx. 1 km away from the house [although the small local beach is only 30 metres away] and can be reached by a gentle stroll. Boats also sail the few minutes back and forth to the beach or you can take the little road train that chugs back and forth to the beach all day long.

The Monastery Beach is 5 minutes away along the coastal path, and here you will find a sweet little restaurant on a small promontary immediately overlooking the beach. This provides delicious food, and is located within an old fisherman's house. The Monastery, itself, is worth visiting for its fine collection of artworks.

Phil says: "The house is beautifully situated and its views are simply breathtaking. It is hard to imagine a more picturesque setting, add the fact that a range of bars and restaurants are virtually on its doorstep and the location is even more impressive. Hours can be spent chilling out on its balcony. The only down sides were calling an old transistor radio a 'music player', no kettle and bizarre arrangements for collecting and depositing the keys. Apart from those points Harbour House is perfect - Bol and the island of Brac equally so. "
