Beautiful property, fantastic host!
From beginning to end, our holiday at this property was a dream. David was such a wonderful host, brilliant at keeping us up to date with things before we arrived, welcomed us with a gift basket and he was so helpful during our stay. The property itself is gorgeous. We spent most of the week lounging by the pool with a few day trips out to the local towns and cities. Could not recommend David’s property enough.

So great we booked an extra week
We loved this villa. The attention to detail to the pool area makes it so luxurious, you won’t want to leave. Its quiet, private, and totally indulgent with built in fridges, hot shower, jacuzzi jets and variable night lighting to create your own ambience. David was a great host, and his father kindly gave us some of his homemade olive oil and grappa, and kept us supplied with fresh grapes and figs for our whole stay. Kitchen and bathroom are modern and bedrooms comfy. Smart tv in lounge great to log in to your own netflix account. Location quiet but centrally located to be able to visit many different towns. Small supermarket 2km away for fresh bread milk wine etc, and variety of other supermarkets slightly further afield. Would definitely stay here again

Peaceful private villa with beautiful pool
We stayed here for two weeks in september. When we arrived in pula airport, i had forgotten to tell our car hire company our flight had been pushed back a few hours, so they let our hire car go, and because it was so busy they we going to charge us 3 times as much to hire one. We took a taxi to the villa and David was there waiting for us. When we told him our predicament, he quickly sorted us another hire car at a much more reasonable price, and offered to take us shopping for supplies. We really couldnt have asked for more in a host and are very grateful for his help. The villa itself is fantastic, clean, comfortable and spacious but its the pool area that sets this villa apart. It is completely enclosed and not overlooked and has built in fridges, hot shower, sink, mood lighting and comfortable sun loungers. We have spent most of the last two weeks lounging around in our own little paradise. There are only a couple of houses around the villa and the people in them are very quiet. The villa is located in centre of istria, which makes it great for visiting all the lovely surrounding towns. Would recommend this to anyone who wants privacy and tranquility. Thank you for a great stay David

We had a fantastic week. The property was lovely and we really enjoyed the pool. The location is perfect for exploring Istria. There are several really good restaurants close by. David Josep and Maria were great hosts and we enjoyed sampling Josep’s olive oil, wine and spirits.

A wonderful holiday!
We were here for 7 days with our two teenagers. The house had everything you need with plenty of relaxing outdoor space. The swimming pool was fantastic. We were greeting by David's sister Barbara and his parents (because David was away). They could not have been more helpful. We were greeted with coffee, grappa and figs. The accommodation is rural but there is everything you need within a 5-10 min drive. There are supermarkets close by and a lovely pizza place (my kids loved their pizza). All in all a wonderful relaxing holiday with fantastic hosts. Thank you David for making us feel so welcome!

About the host

Hosted by David Rajko

Host profile image
I like to travel, see new things, buildings, cultures and get to know with a way of life, I like camping and being in touch with nature, go on seaside and take a nice long bath in it.
Mine biggest passion is design&build, especially in stone masonry and in traditional Istrian style with characteristic longitudinal stripes. How I am a little bit of hedonist I designed the pool site to be pleasant for use. All masonry that you see on photos my father and I built it and I hope that you'll like it to :)

What makes this property unique

The purification system for water in the pool is managed through the electrolisys, with adding see salt and from the salt through Electrolisys Chlor is made for protecting the quality of water. So your children can swim in it without any fear if they have more sensitive skin. It taste salty.
In side the pool you will find a Whirpool, a perfect spot to hide in shade from the Sun, in two chairs with hydromassagge option. You can turn it on and off as you like. If its on it lasts for 5 minutes.
Each side of the pool has his own ladder, on one side you have Roman Stairs (concrete stairs coated with mosaic tiles) and on the other end are situated Inox Ladder so you can easily go to two refrigerators and have something cold to drink out :)
Above the refrigerators the Bar is awaiting for you, and on side of it there are two stone chairs and two stone cabinets. On the other side you have a stone deck to lay on, or on the wooden one, and on side of it you have two showers in outer bathroom (regular one and rain shower) with Hot and Cold Water. In side the shower is a stone chair so you can sit and shower if you feel to.
Special touch is given to illumination of the pool site. You have 14 different options for every feeling that your in to! And it has a master switch to shut them all ;)
Beautiful lawn with ChildPlay on it is waiting to get played with and the Gas Grill near by so you can look after them while preparing meals. Near the grill is Spice Garden from wich you can collect goods and use them for your meals.
Living room is filled with books in German, English, Italian and French, so laid down and relax :)
