Residence Alla Beccaccia

Immaculate grounds, good location for visiting the area (Pula, Rovinj, wineries), 20 min walk to marina, plenty of places for parking, excellent restaurant for dinner! Breakfast was good, making eggs to order is a nice touch (but time consuming for the staff). We did not realize that the restaurant was awarded a Michelin Bib Gourmand, happy coincidence for us! Very quiet location in a neighborhood, you are not in the "middle of the city" and won't hear a lot of traffic noise. You will hear the occasional roosters crow in the morning and the dogs (coyotes?) howling here and there at night. There was a mini-fridge in the room that was actually larger than usual.

We were very happy with the site. The following is more of an "FYI" for those choosing this place to stay. It seems to be a home converted to single rooms and larger "family" rooms. There are no elevators, and the walkway from parking to check-in to the building are covered in gravel, be prepared to carry your luggage. The balconies are "shared", partially separated by a wall but not a complete wall. It worked well for us, our friends were "next door" so we would gather on the balcony. But if you didn't know your neighbor....

Everything - the hosts, the land around the rooms, pool, food - all was exceptional.

Everything is fabulous here

The room was great, unfortunately since we were on the ground floor, there are also rooms on the 1st floor, but I am not sure right now if you need to select that during the booking process, it was not convenient to open the windows because people passing by can look inside the room from the corridor, inside the room everything was perfect, except the bed, it has a hard mattrace, so both of us had pain to sleep on it, but it might be good for other people, consider this when booking. The restaurant is right there, so if anyone wants to eat expensive they can do so right in front of the rooms, but reservations are needed. We had to check out 1 day earlier because of sickness, and the owner granted us a refund for 1 night, which was nice!

Regarding the breakfast, do not drink the water bottles water, It's not actually the brand that is displayed on the bottle, they are reusing them and filling it up with tap water, so on the first day we drank it, and it was tasting weird so next day we checked the bottles cap, and it was all unscrewed already, they are tricking us into believing its quality water, but in reality the people there don't even drink the tap water, next day we met another person who also noticed the water tasted weird and also stopped drinking it, in reality the owner should be using pitchers for the water or a see through glass bottle without label to ensure people know this is not bought water but simply tap water and people can then drink it on their own risk, unfortunately since it was not told to us, we got diarrhea, the entire trip we were drinking water from bottles that we bought and then this happens, very unpleasant experience, I hope they don't use the brand label bottles anymore so no one else needs to taste this disgusting water.
