About this property

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.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

Wirklich eine toller Ort zum Urlaub machen, wir haben die Zeit dort sehr genossen. Der Pool war relativ kühl schon um diese Jahreszeit, da er ziemlich viel Schatten von den Häusern und den Bäumen abbekommt. Leider war die Küche und das Geschirr teilweise nicht Sauber.

Schönes Ferienhaus

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.

Sehr schönes modernes Haus

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.

Traumhafte Villa

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!

Exzellente Unterkunft.

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.
