Known for its quiet atmosphere and rugged coastline, Brac offers travelers a unique Croatian experience that is at once rejuvenating and captivating. Brac luxury villas take the experience further with private stays that blend seamlessly into their surroundings, melding indoor and outdoor living.
While Brac has been populated since prehistoric times, it was the Roman and Byzantine empires that truly colonized it. From the Byzantine and later the Venetian era, Brac became a major center for stone masonry. The rich architectural influence and stone-carving tradition of the Venetian period can still be seen today.
Centuries later, Brac attracts tourists from around the world to appreciate its white-stone architecture, charming villages, and breathtaking landscapes. Brac is also home to Vidova Gora, the highest peak in the Adriatic Sea with sweeping views that extend across Hvar and the mainland.
