About this property
Boutique home Villa Domenico
Nestled in the heart of Slovenian Istria, just a few kilometers from Koper, Villa Domenico sits on the blooming and sun-kissed hill of Sv. Anton. This boutique retreat is an intimate tribute to nature and the legacy of our ancestors. Stepping inside, you begin a gentle journey through time where tradition meets comfort, and the feel of the land is imbued in every detail. The atmosphere is calm and grounding, offering a gentle pause from the rush of everyday life.
The villa is ideal for couples, families, small groups, and creatives seeking calm or the thrill of discovering something new. While we love children and enjoy their presence, the house may not be the most suitable choice for kids aged 3–6, due to certain features of the garden and interior.
The area offers beautiful views of the sea and the surrounding green hills, reflecting the gentle rhythm of the landscape. With its fenced courtyard and spacious Mediterranean garden, the villa provides a secure and relaxing retreat. It is a place of calm and quiet where nature, comfort and the essence of slow living come together. Sleep deeply in spacious rooms with natural linens and blackout curtains. Cook with fresh herbs in a fully equipped summer kitchen or enjoy sunset dinners under the trees in the villa's private garden. A large open living area, four intimate bedrooms (three with double beds, one with a single bed), and a full modern bathroom provide all the comforts of a 4-star stay without the pretense. This is not a rental. This is your home in Istria.
Due to its favorable location, Villa Domenico is particularly suitable for trips to coastal cities (Koper, Izola, Piran) or other places in Slovenia (Ljubljana, Bled), Croatian Istria (Umag, Rovinj, Zagreb) and Italy (Trieste, Venice). For lovers of active holidays, it is perfect for cycling trips (connection to Parenzana), hiking and water sports.
We visit the villa once or twice a day to water the plants and care for the chickens, but we do not disturb your privacy. Should you need anything, we’re always just a message away.

About the host
Hosted by Nevia
As a retired professor of Italian and French with a lifelong passion for art and craftsmanship, I restored this boutique villa together with my daughter Natali and close friends. It was our way of honoring our great-great-grandfather Domenico's work, and creating a place where others could experience calm, beauty and the spirit of Istria. It's important to me that our guests feel comfortable and enjoy their stay, creating cherished memories within these walls while experiencing the beauty of my homeland.
Why they chose this property
Tucked in the charming village of Sv. Anton, just a 15-minute drive from Koper and the Adriatic Sea, Villa Domenico 1790 offers the best of both worlds: the privacy of a rural setting, and the proximity of coastal towns, vineyards, and hilltop villages.
This restored stone residence is nestled in the peaceful hills of Slovenian Istria where time slows down, and every detail invites you to rest, reconnect and breathe. Originally built in 1790 by our ancestor Domenico Turco, this boutique home blends the rustic charm of Istrian tradition with refined comfort. Lovingly restored using natural materials and local craftsmanship, the villa offers an immersive retreat for those who appreciate silence, authenticity, and warm aesthetics.
Today, Villa Domenico welcomes you to slow down, reconnect, and experience the beauty of Istria. We’ve preserved its soul, added comfort, and left space for your memories to unfold.
