Beautiful villa
Highly recommend, definitely need a car however. Spotlessly clean and every piece of kitchen equipment you could wish for. Loved the pool and table tennis. Hosts very welcoming and helpful (son speaks excellent English!) Would return.

einfach nur schön
Es war eine wunderschöne Woche. Die Villa ist wirklich traumhaft schön , etwas abseits vielleicht, aber um Istrien zu erkunden wiederum ideal, weil genau in der Mitte der Halbinsel und somit relativ kurze Anfahrwege in alle Richtungen. Wetter passte auch und der Pool wurde gut genutzt. Die Ausstattung war eh perfekt: Spielhaus, Trampolin, Billard, Tischtennis, Grillmöglichkeiten und, und, und..., alles da für einen perfekten Familienurlaub. Und dann die Vermieterin, Suzane, vielen Dank an dieser Stelle noch mal. Sie hat uns mit süßem Gebäck verwöhnt und war immer da um zu schauen das wir uns wohl fühlen. Herzlichen Dank noch mal! Es war wirklich eine der schönsten Urlaubsreisen überhaupt, kann ich nur weiter empfehlen!

Traumhaus mit Pefekter Gastgeberin
Das Haus ist super schön, alles ist blitz blank und die Gastgeberin ist wohl die netteste Person in ganz Kroatien. Ihre Gastfreundschaft ist wirklich unglaublich und haben wir so noch nie erlebt bei anderen Unterkünften. Wir waren 6 Erwachsene und 8 Kinder. Das schöne an der Villa ist der Aussenbereich und der kurze Weg in die Küche. Wir konnten uns immer draussen aufhalten. Ein Stromanschluss ist draussen auch vorhanden. Zum Haus: Haus ist in 3 Etagen aufgeteil EG, 1.OG u d 2OG Die Wohnungen sind im Haus nicht verbunden, man gelangt aussen herum zu den Wohnungen. Das war für uns perfekt. Lage: Man ist fast ganz alleine. Die Nachbarn sind super nett. Ca 7 minuten entfernt ist ein supermarkt. Zum nächst größeren Kaufland dauert es ca 30-40 minuten. Mit dem Auto natürlich. Wir können die Unterkunft sehr empfehlen, wir hatten eine sehr tolle Zeit und noch nie so eine nette und aufmerksame Vermieterin. Vielen Dank
