A very nice family villa but we had a few issues.
Let me just start by saying this is a very nice Villa but unfortunately, we did have issues hence me scoring it lower than some of the other reviews. We were met on arrival by the owner who gave us a very detailed tour of the villa which has been beautifully renovated. My party consisted of 3 adults and 2 children and There was plenty of space both inside and outside to Relax, dine and enjoy the Villa and its surroundings The villa is extremely well presented very clean and well furnished. There’s Non-Smart TV ‘s in every room inc bedrooms although the Satellite TV only offered one UK Channel There’s Six bikes of which only four are just about road worthy, we took them out one day for a 10K round trip into the local town of Visnjan which was very nice trip There a Nintendo W11 in the living room advertised as a PlayStation which we couldn’t get to work There is a lovely pool room and table which we did spend time every evening playing pool and having fun. Swimming pool is very nice and a good size, its not heated however and can feel a little fresh when jumping in, there’s 8 loungers with ample cushions and very good parasols. We had issues with the AC and the hot water the owner came out twice with an engineer to fix it and by the end of the holiday it was working but the rooms don't get below 25% The Hot water or lack of it was frustrating as i ended up having cold showers , the owner did fix this but it only lasted a few days before going back to being inconsistent.

Superb villa for family holiday
We highly recommend this villa for a family holiday. Also the booking and communication with the hosts was great. The villa is a wonderful family home with every amenity you could wish for. Immaculately clean, with ample space for 8 adults. Location is away from the hustle and bustle of Porec situated in the ever green hills near Visnjan. Perfect base for touring beautiful Istria . Marko and family thank you for allowing us to stay at your home.

Wonderful! We would highly recommend!
We stayed here in August 2018 as a group of 2 families with 4 teenagers. The property was fabulous with so much space for us all to get together and to have time on our own. The villa has been restored perfectly - the traditional features have been retained whilst ensuring the modern aspects have been blended together to create a unique and welcoming aspect. The outside space is fantastic - the pool is huge and also has a jacuzzi feature. There is so much space and having the covered area is lovely if you wish to escape from the sun. There is a table outside the kitchen which is perfect for breakfast and for use with the kitchen on the first floor. We were so impressed with the kitchen on the ground floor - which was fully fitted out and we used this for lunch providing a great place to dine. All of the bedrooms and bathrooms were of a high quality and were spotlessly clean. In addition there was everything else provided - we couldn't think of one thing which was missing! There was a lovely village a few minutes away with a great traditional bakery, supermarket and 2 of the best restaurants we have visited - and all very reasonable! From a location perspective the villa is prefect to use as a base with all key areas being within 1 hour drive. In summary we had the most wonderful holiday and we would 100% recommend you book this villa! Many thanks Marco from the Richards Family and the Preston Family.

Istrian luxury - absolutely stunning!
Our stay at Villa tona was absolutely fantastic. The house is immaculately furnished and has been lovingly restored with exquisite attention to detail. We were particularly impressed with how spotlessly clean it was. We were a family of 7 from 8 to 87 years old and it catered for us all. The villa is extremely spacious and well equipped and we didn’t want for anything. Marko and family were superb hosts, extremely friendly, and always on hand for any queries or recommendations for the area. We had an incident whilst we were there, and Marko and family couldn’t have been kinder. The pool was the highlight and we took full advantage during the day and evening, amongst the lavender - just sublime. Istria is beautiful and will definitely return. Thank you once again villa tona!
