Set on a scenic hilltop near the village of Vižinada, this exceptional villa is a real gem. Its elevated position offers sweeping views of the rolling Istrian hills, stretching as far as the Adriatic and the Alps. Those vistas are best enjoyed from the pristine pool, which is perfectly positioned for admiring the scenery as you swim. There’s a pretty terrace too, complete with a barbecue area for laid-back lunches and long summer evenings. Inside, the rooms are bright and elegant, styled with soft shades and plush furnishings. And beyond the house, you’ll find sunny vineyards, sleepy villages, and beautiful beaches to discover – all the things that make this corner of Croatia so special.
