About the host

Hosted by Ana Pojatina

Host profile image
I'm Ana, your host. I speak English, German, and Croatian, and I'm
available throughout your stay for anything you need — restaurant tips,
beach recommendations, last-minute requests, or just a quick chat about
the village. We live nearby, so we're not a distant agency.
Hosting, for us, means three things: a clean and beautifully maintained
villa, real responsiveness when you message us, and small touches that
turn a rental into a holiday — a bottle of Istrian wine on arrival,
fresh herbs from the garden, honest advice on which beach to skip and
which winery is worth the drive.
If you're traveling with kids, with pets, or with a group of friends
who want quality time together — you're exactly who Villa Beluga was
built for.

Why they chose this property

Svetvinčenat is the renaissance heart of Istria — a 13th-century stone
village built around the Grimani Castle, with two cobblestone squares,
a Sunday farmer's market, and roughly 2,000 locals who still nod at
strangers on the street.

We chose this spot because it gives you the best of both Istrias. From
the villa, you're 5 minutes on foot from village life — bakery, pizzeria,
espresso bar — and 20-25 minutes by car from the coast: Rovinj, Bale,
Fažana, the Brijuni Islands. Inland, you're surrounded by olive groves,
family vineyards, and some of Istria's best truffle territory.

What we love most is the rhythm. Mornings are quiet here. Afternoons are
for the pool or the beach. Evenings the village opens up — the castle
hosts summer concerts, the konobas fill with grilled fish and Malvazija
wine, and the sky turns from gold to deep blue without you noticing.

It's the kind of place that feels like a discovery, even though it's
been here for 800 years.

What makes this property unique

Three things make Villa Beluga different from the surrounding rental
market:

1. The game room. Most Istrian villas have a pool and a BBQ. We have
those too — plus a basement game room with a full-size billiard table,
foosball, darts, board games, a PlayStation, and badminton equipment
for the garden. It's the difference between a holiday where rainy
afternoons are wasted and one where they become the highlights.

2. The pool, properly done. An 8×4m biological pool (no harsh chlorine,
gentle on skin), heated from May through October, with hydromassage and
a depth that works for both adult swimming and kids playing. Eight
loungers around the deck, plus a covered terrace with a 12-seat dining
table and outdoor kitchen.

3. Designed in 2021, not retrofitted. Villa Beluga is a 350 m²
contemporary build with four en-suite bedrooms, central air conditioning,
underfloor heating, a fireplace, 125 Mbit/s WiFi, and a fully equipped
induction kitchen. The interior follows a soft natural palette — built
to be a calm space after a full day outside.

We've built around real family logistics: a fully fenced 1,000 m²
courtyard (safe for kids and pets), cot and high chair available, two
of the bedrooms have twin beds, the other two have doubles that split
into singles if needed.

For groups who want both privacy and proximity, our sister property
Villa Ballena is right next door — together they sleep 18, on a shared
estate with a clay tennis court.
