Mediterranean at Its Best

Northernmost Mediterranean peninsula was historically part of many different empires, each contributing to a unique blend of rich cultural tradition that remains vibrant to this day. Istrian sentiment is complemented by unspoiled nature, characterised by dynamic shores of the glittering Adriatic Sea and a lush inland landscape with magnificent scenery. Blue sea and green nature are
contrasted by white stone of small medieval towns adorning hilltops and the coastline.

Lively resorts provide numerous possibilities for recreation and are among the most popular travel destinations. Diverse beaches feature picturesque bays, coves and capes with gravel and white pebbles. Some of them are still wild and untamed, hidden away from noise and tourist crowds. Countryside is marked with charming rolling hills embraced by vineyards and olive groves. A large part of the peninsula is covered with fragrant pine forests, casting soothing shadows on a hot summer’s day.

Most impressive Istrian natural monument is the National park Brijuni, a group of islands on the West coast renowned for their rich biodiversity and many protected species. Since the beginning of their tourist history Brijuni islands have served as a vacation hot-spot for the European aristocracy. They were later also chosen as a summer residence for the former Yugoslav and subsequent Croatian presidents.

Region offers something for all tastes. It is ideal for all cultural explorers, lovers of gastronomical pleasures, people with an active lifestyle and also for those who just want to relax. The Mediterranean climate with moderately hot summers and mild winters acts beneficially and improves the wellbeing of visitors. All this makes Istria a perfect destination for holidays and longer vacations all year round.

Gastronomical Delights

Satisfy your taste buds with original Istrian cuisine, prepared according to traditional recipes. Istrian food is based on locally produced ingredients, seasonal vegetables, fresh seafood, spices, and olive oil.

For first time sampling, try a typical local dish, which includes any of the different kinds of pasta, prosciutto and sheep cheese. Delicacies with high quality Istrian truffles or wild asparagus are also much appreciated and will inspire even the most demanding connoisseurs.
Istrian geographic position with rich soil, abundance of sunlight and mild climate creates the perfect conditions for producing top quality wines. Toast to your health with the fine white Malvazija or deep red Teran wines.


Body and Mind Activities

Fresh air and clean nature are ideal for all kinds of outdoor activities. Visit any of the Istrian beach resorts to take a swim in the Adriatic Sea or simply lie back and enjoy the warm sunshine and gentle coastal breezes. Wake up the adventurer in you and discover hidden bays and coves by sailing or canoeing. Sports enthuisasts will appreciate the range of recreational facilities for golf, tennis, volleyball and other sports in all main tourist centres. The seaside is also an excellent choice for all fishers and birdwatchers.

Explorers of nature will fall in love with Brijuni National Park.

We had 3 couples staying and the house was fabulous. You need a vehicle, but it is close to everything and great for our daily adventures to explore the magnificent Istria area. A fabulous kitchen which was very well equipped and made for some great evening meals. Communication with Branko was great.We all wished we had of been able to stay for longer.

Die Bilder im Internet sind mit Weitwinkel aufgenommen und entsprechen nicht der wirklichkeit. Die Anlage ist sauber und schön, aber sehr einsam. Einkaufen und Essengehen ist in nächster nähe nicht möglich. Es knallt außerdem alle 15 Min sehr Laut und kann ganz schön Nervig werden, keine Ahnung woher das kam aber es war die ganze Woche zu hören.

We stayed in Vila Primula in June when the summer was already getting properly hot. At that time the whole Istria region was yet to welcome seasonal tourists. Therefore the atmosphere was still very calm. The villa was like a fairytale gem. Big enough to offer comfortable for our friends we invited. It proofed to be a proper holiday place. One of the great thing was the fact was no matter how hot outdoors, inside the temperature was always cool.All facilities are taken care for. Kitchen is equiped to a great standard. The garden is muck bigger that the photos show with lovely fresh herbs growing there.The place can be some sort of party zone, with very smarty installed hi-fi system which provides great sound at the pool area.We spent our evenings at the built-in barbeque and the large dinning table. Is was a romantic and relaxing as it gets.We will back soon.
