Travel guide

Villas in Istria

Istria lies in the northwest corner of Croatia, nestled next to the gleaming Adriatic Sea. Picturesque historic towns are scattered amongst the hilly landscape and beautiful coastline. Istria is perfect for a relaxing holiday by the sea with fishing villages on the coast and quaint villas further inland. Istria’s towns date back to Roman times, with narrow streets and historic buildings.

Rent a villa in the charming coastal cities of Pula, Opatija and Rovinj for a city and seaside holiday. You’ll find plenty of history and beauty as Istria was conquered by the Romans and later controlled by Venice. Rent a traditional stone villa in the heart of Istria for a relaxing holiday, or stay in something more modern in one of Istria’s towns to explore the undiscovered holiday gems.
