Wonderful vacation in the Heart of Istria
We had a great and very relaxing vacation in the Villa Branko. This was basically because the lovely owner provided us with everything we needed and beyond. The Villa is set in a quiet area of Istria within reach of all the main sights. The property comprises a huge and very well-kept garden, a relaxing pool and a nice court and many more things. After a week only we felt deeply relaxed. Thank you, dear Klara!

Perfect for large family getaway
This villa has absolutley everything a family needs for a week away. As a family of 8 we were not disappointed. The villa was spotless when we arrived. Kristian made check in very easy. He gave us details of local places to go and see. The villa was perfect for us with the amount of space it has and things to do. The pool area is lovely and the small people loved the playarea and grass area to play on. The pictures do not so the space justice (It's huge) Klara came and visited mid week and she was lovely and also gave us ideas on where to eat (Klara Rovinj was lovely for dinner thank you) if you need a holiday villa to cater for large families I can not recommend this enough it was lovely. Will definitley be back.

Plenty of activities for children
Very nice Villa that has been upgrated during the years. The yard is perfect with small children or youngsters, because there are much to do (pool, badminton, football, tabletennis). The teracce is large enough for two families with children. The Villa is not new, so expect it be one. The owner is super-helpful and nice. The surrounding is nice and quiet and still close to several things to do. (July 2018 the neighbour was building a house or something, so it might bring some sounds to the Villa too.) Value for the price is 5/5.

About the host

Hosted by Klara Grahovac

Host profile image
I have a Master's degree in International Tourism in National Economy, from the Economics University of Zagreb. I currently live in Pula, and I have a company that provides private accommodation units. In 2012 I was nominated as a candidate by the Istrian Tourist organization for 'The Best Private Host' in Croatia. On a side note, there are over 10,000 private renters in Istria, and I was the only nominee. I have two apartments in Pula which I rent since 1996 and this property since 2002. I am very responsible, professional, and enthusiastic about the holiday services I provide. I am friendly and open-minded and it's a great pleasure for me to host guests from around the world.

Why they chose this property

The villa was built by my late father, Branko Grahovac, on the land of my mother Ruža Pustijanac-Grahovac. She was born in the nearby village of Peresiji. It's the first house in rural Istria which was categorized as a touristic resort in 1995. After his death in 2002, I named the house after him: Villa Branko. I started renting the house as tourist accommodation and have recently invested in renovating the house in 2021.

What makes this property unique

Amazing Villa Branko**** on an enclosed and private area of 7000 sq. m. with a private swimming pool, badminton court, table tennis, children's playhouse, and football field.

Return to nature, refresh your memories and awaken your love.

Ideally suited for families with children. Pets are welcome and allowed.
