Opatija was known as the "Adriatic Monte Carlo" in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Villa Angiolina, built in 1844, marked the beginning of tourism in this "Pearl of the Adriatic." When the Austro-Hungarian Empress Maria Anna spent three months in Opatija, word quickly spread throughout Europe about this divine place on the Adriatic coast. The list of famous guests who were captivated by Opatija is long: Austro-Hungarian Emperor Franz Joseph Habsburg, Prussian Emperor Wilhelm II, Emperor Ferdinand I of Bulgaria, Norwegian-Swedish King Oscar II, Italian King Umberto I, Romanian King Carol I, King George of Greece, composers Giacomo Puccini and Gustav Mahler, dancer Isadora Duncan, actress Tilla Durieux, writers James Joyce, Anton Pavlovich Chekhov, Henryk Sienkiewicz, and Vladimir Nabokov, among others. There is rarely a nation that hasn't left its mark on Opatija. It's also interesting to note that Leo Henryk Sternbach, the inventor of Valium and one of the 25 most influential Americans of the 20th century, was born in Opatija in 1908.
Today, Opatija is an excellent gastronomic destination with many renowned restaurants, an excellent architectural heritage, and exceptional parks.
