Read our USA clients impressions on Vila Melodija in Grabovica village : “Dear Ivanka and Team: Donna and I want thank you for our wonderful tour of Serbia. We especially enjoyed our meal at the Vila Melodija. Our driver/guide Zlatan was wonderful. And, yes, we did enjoy visiting the monasteries. We look forward to returning sometime in the future now that we know a little about Serbia.

Thank you for a wonderful meal! We enjoyed it greatly! We thought of our visit with your family as one of the special delights of our visit to Serbia. We arrived home safely to Peoria, Illinois-USA on May 29, 2010. Hopefully, Maria will let me know if she can read my letter alright. We loved the nettle soup also. Maybe Maria can send me the recipe by e-mail sometime. Thank you, again for all that you did to make our visit most memorable. Love, Donna and Warren Wilkins, USA”
