About Jasminka and Irena Stanic

We are a small family, Jasminka and Miljenko, a couple over 60,and daughter who is studying in Trieste, our dog Arga and 3 cats. Pruhari is the birthplace of our ancestors. They built these houses with their own hands. It is an old familiar place. We think of Pruhari as a spiritual, aesthetic, and anthropogenic landscape, as well as the self-evident, existential frame of our family. Completely out of personal and familiar ambitions there exists an idea of wider enrichment of the entire region and community through revitalization of the village, in the sense of sustained development. We spent the last 10 years and all of our savings in restoring the houses in the village, and we are very proud of such a job, because it was the village of our ancestors and we saved it from disappearing and being forgotten. This traditional village was constructed by our ancestors 100 years and more ago, entirely of stone, and is adorned with characteristic balconies, under which lie well-cooled wine cellars.

Jasminka and Irena Stanic purchased this Villa in 2000

Why Jasminka and Irena Stanic chose Buzet

Pruhari arose in the mid-19th century, but the chapel on the nearby hill originates back to 1555, proven by the Glagolithic title on the entrance. We live in privacy, neighbored only by vineyards, olive groves, and truffle-rich forests. The wines, and the olive oil in particular, are first class, as are the truffles, a rare and valued mushroom.
