Guest comments
Villa Erin is a real escape from it all but still close enough to the coast and beautiful Istrian villages. We had great weather and enjoyed many wonderful BBQs by the pool. It really is a lovely house. Westbrooke family- UK - 2007.
Very relaxing holiday. Great food and wine. Plenty to see and do in the area but choose Villa Erin because we wanted somewhere peaceful to stay. The house has everything that you could ask for and more. Looks exactly like the photos!
