About this villa

Sea views across the Bay of Kaštela, five bedrooms each with its own bathroom and a heated pool with an integrated whirlpool: Villa Just be Happy (258 m² living space) sits at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Kaštel Stari – no through traffic, a 10-minute drive from Split Airport and about 1 km from the beach and promenade. The large terrace is our guests' favourite spot: the pool (heated from late March to October) with whirlpool area, loungers for ten, parasols, an outdoor kitchen with BBQ and a dining spot with a postcard view of the sea, Mount Kozjak and the city lights in the evening. Inside you'll find an elegant open-plan living and dining area with floor-to-ceiling windows onto the pool, a big sofa and a smart TV with streaming apps, a dining table for ten and a fully equipped kitchen with side-by-side fridge and ice maker – spices, oil, coffee and tea are already there. All five bedrooms have their own bathroom, plus there's a guest bathroom. Hotel-quality towels and toiletries, blackout curtains and quiet A/C make for restful nights; the large sofa can sleep two more guests if needed. Good to know: fast internet with Wi-Fi throughout the house, A/C and heating in every room, private parking for up to four cars and self check-in from 4 pm via key box – late arrival is no problem. Baby cot and high chair are free of charge. Dogs are welcome (just not in the pool). The tap water is safe to drink. Trogir is about 10 and Split about 25 minutes away; supermarket, cafés and restaurants are within roughly 1 km. For trips to Krka, Omiš or the islands we recommend a car.

Airbnb · September 2026
„An incredibly lovely house that truly lived up to expectations! We had a wonderful stay, plenty of space, and it felt luxurious with a private bathroom for every room. Beautiful pool and nice outdoor area. Always a friendly and quick response when contacting the host. However, we had hoped that someone would meet us when we arrived, but unfortunately no one showed up. In addition, we were told that a pool attendant would come during the week, but none came. It would have been good if the pool had been cleaned at some point during the stay. One of the sun loungers was broken when we arrived; we informed the host immediately and got a quick reply. This doesn't lower the rating significantly, though, since we had such a wonderful stay – we didn't want to leave! The whole group thanks you for a really lovely week! ☀️“

„The house was nicely furnished and well equipped with what we needed. The location was also very nice, with a short distance to the airport and a convenient position between Trogir and Split. Also a short distance to the beach, restaurants and the grocery store. There was some construction work going on on one side of the house, so there was a bit of noise from there, but otherwise we had a very nice stay. We'd be happy to come back 😊“

Frequently asked questions

What do we do better than other holiday rental providers?

We rent out our own three villas – no agency, no call centre. The usual complaints from reviews of other providers don't apply here: pool heating, final cleaning, tourist tax, electricity and air conditioning are part of the final price instead of extra fees on site, the villas look exactly like the photos (guests confirm this in their reviews again and again), and you reach us on WhatsApp, usually within minutes, instead of through a ticket system.

What does the best price guarantee mean?

Booked direct, every villa is always at least 5 % cheaper than on Airbnb, Booking.com and every other platform – with the same cancellation terms. If you see the same dates cheaper elsewhere, just send us a short message and we'll match it.

Why is your pool heated at no extra cost?

Because a cold pool in April, May, September or October is no use to anyone. Many providers charge for pool heating per day – with us it is included in the final price from late March to October. The hot tub is heated all year round.

Is booking direct with Trawelltopia safe?

Yes. Payment runs through Stripe, one of the largest payment providers in the world. Your dates are blocked in our calendar on all channels immediately, and you receive confirmation, receipt and payment plan by email. Trawelltopia is run by BS Homes d.o.o. with full company details; more than 590 guests have already stayed with us.

What happens if something doesn't work during my stay?

Message us on WhatsApp or call – several of our team live locally and usually sort things out the same day. Small issues are fixed right away; guests often mention this in their reviews.
