Travelling to Villa Puntinak is easy. You can fly to Split directly or with one connection-stop on the way. You find budget flights at, e.g. Momondo or Seat24. To give you an example: Fly to Split and preferably arrive at lunchtime or early afternoon. Take the shuttle bus (ca 8€, frequently runs every hour) from the airport straight to Split bus station just opposite the ferry terminal. Here you can take a ferry (runs regularly) direct to Supetar on Brac (55 minutes). From Supetar we either meet you and take you by car, or you take a taxi the last 30 minutes to Villa Puntinak.
An alternative is to change bus at the bus station in Split and continue to Makarska (nice bus ride ca 2 hours) and take the ferry from Makarska direct to Sumartin (55 min). Villa Puntinak is 1,8 km from the port).
If you choose a plane that arrives in the evening or leaves early in the morning on your way home, you may decide to spend the night in great Split. There are many options for cheap and reasonable accommodation near the spectacular Diocletian palace and a lot to see.
We advise you to choose a plane back from Split in the afternoon or evening as it takes up to 3 hours to get to the airport. But you can make it also with a plane that leaves 10.30, the earliest.
