Charming Istrian Retreat with Modern Comforts and Timeless Character

Tucked away in a picturesque village, this beautifully restored Istrian estate offers the perfect blend of privacy, comfort, and authentic Mediterranean charm. Surrounded by nature and shaded outdoor areas, the property provides a tranquil setting for unforgettable moments with family and friends.

Originally a traditional Istrian home, the entire property was thoughtfully renovated in 2020 by a talented designer, combining rustic character with modern style. The estate consists of two separate buildings:

The main house features two inviting bedrooms, a sleek, fully equipped kitchen, and a cozy open-plan living and dining area.

The second building is a stylish guest apartment with two bedrooms, its own kitchen, and a spacious living room — ideal for extended families or groups seeking a bit of extra space and privacy.

Designed with comfort in mind, the entire complex is modern, well-appointed, and maintained to a high standard.

Despite its peaceful setting, the property is ideally located:

Just 9 km from the historic hilltop town of Labin

Only 14 km from Rabac and its stunning Adriatic beaches — about 15 minutes by car

A short 3 km drive to the nearest supermarket and some excellent local restaurants

Whether you're lounging in the shade, exploring nearby coastal towns, or enjoying local cuisine, this serene haven is your perfect base in Istria.

We’ll also provide you with a curated list of recommended activities, sights, and hidden-gem restaurants to help you make the most of your stay.
Welcome to Istria – your unforgettable escape begins here.

Ferienhaus ist wie beschrieben und es ist alles was nötig ist vorhanden. Geschirr ist allerdings nur im Haupthaus. Einzig was verbessert werden könnte wäre den Pool zu Heizen. Zu unserem Reisedatum war der Pool doch sehr kalt. (Anfang September) Wir haben uns wohlgefühlt.

Im Haus hat es an nichts gefehlt, es ist modern eingerichtet und sehr sauber. Die Lage ist etwas abseits in einem kleinen ruhigen Ort. Leider fanden in unserem Buchungszeitraum auf dem Nachbargrundstück trotz vorheriger Absprache täglich ab 07:00 Uhr(auch sonntags) diverse Bauarbeiten statt, die mit Lärm und Einsicht auf den Pool und die Sonnenterrasse verbunden waren.

Wir haben unseren Urlaub in dieser wunderschönen Villa sehr genossen! Mit 2 Töchtern war es sehr angenehm quasi zwei Wohnungen zur Verfügung zu haben.Leider ist es ein sehr baufreudiges Dorf und wir hatten in der 2. Woche von 2 Seiten den Schall von Baustellen. Ab Nachmittag war wieder vollkommene Ruhe im Dorf und wir konnten die Dachterrasse und den Pool in vollen Zügen genießen! Würden jederzeit wieder buchen!

Ob als Gruppe oder als Familie können wir die sehr gut ausgestattete Villa nur weiterempfehlen. Die Vermieterin war mega hilfsbereit und entgegenkommend.

Würden Sie jederzeit wieder buchen. Sehr schön. Strände ca 20 bis 30 Minuten. Sehr sauber. Toller Pool. Sehr gut eingerichtet. Juli 2021 wird unterhalb gebaut. Etwas Lärm. Sollte man im inserate vorher erwähnen. Aber prompte Reaktion vom Host Kristina die immer sehr hilfreich war.

Die gesamte Anlage mit Haus und Pool sind total neu und super eingerichtet und ausgestattet! Man hat viel privatsphäre und der Pool im Innenhof und die Sonnenterasse sind perfekt geeignet. Es ist alles da was das Herz begehrt, Outdoor Griller, offener Kamin im Hause, Küche mit allen notwendigen Geschirr alles top sauber , Kühlschrank mit Gefriertruhe, die Badezimmer sind top modern, stylisch und super sauber . Internet ist vorhanden und mit guter Bandbreite, auch 2 Fernseher sind vorhanden , ein der davon mit einer echt riesigen Diagonalen. Zusammenfassend haben wir uns extrem wohl gefühlt und es hat uns an nichts gefehlt, die Nachbarn, sind super nett und freundlich und der gesamte kleine “Ort” ist total ruhig. wir werden wieder kommen !
