Just three kilometres from the Adriatic, this villa offers a serene escape in rural Istria. Immerse yourself in the region’s laid-back charm, far from the tourist crowds yet close to local shops, cafés, and markets. Inside, the villa is bright and modern, with stylish interiors, a swimming pool, and plenty to keep everyone entertained – from table tennis and darts to volleyball. Little ones will love the playground, while adults can soak up the sun with a glass of local Malvazija. The location is perfectly placed too: only 14 kilometres from Pula airport and 29 kilometres from the dramatic cliffs, hidden coves, and hiking trails of Kamenjak Nature Park.
