Das Ferienhaus war einfach ein Traum. Ein perfektes und authentisches mediterranes Landhaus mit einem wunderschönen Pool. Die Lage im nordwestlichen Istrien war für uns ideal, da wir von hier aus nicht nur die schönen Städte und Küstenorte in Istrien erkunden konnten, sondern auch in Slowenien und sogar zweimal Italien. Das Haus war sehr gut ausgestattet und sehr sauber, es fehlte uns hier wirklich an nichts. Sogar ein kleiner Weber Gasgrill inklusiv Gasflasche stand uns zur Verfügung. Ganz besonders toll war es, dass bei unserem 2-wöchentlichen Aufenthalt nach einer Woche das Haus einmal zwischengereinigt wurde und die Betten neu bezogen sowie die Handtücher gewechselt wurden. Wenn wir eine Frage rund ums Haus oder den Pool hatten konnten wir die Hausverwalterin Kandida immer anrufen oder per WhatsApp kontaktieren. Sie hat uns mit großem Engagement und immer höchstfreundlich und hilfsbereit geholfen und bei Bedarf unterstützt. Wir hatten unseren Hund dabei, der sich hier auch jederzeit wohl und sicher gefühlt hat. Wir können dieses Ferienhaus uneingeschränkt empfehlen. Nochmals vielen Dank an Kandida für die herzensgute Betreuung.

Wir hatten einen wunderschönen Urlaub. Das Haus ist super sauber und wunderschön. Wir waren göttlich essen in der Konoba Buščina. Und Kandida hat uns bei allen geholfen, ob es der schöne Hundestrand war bei dem keiner wie sardinen nebeneinander lag und bei allem andern auch. Ein superschöner Urlaub.

Entspannter Urlaub in ruhiger Umgebung

Wir haben 10 Tagen in diesem wunderschönen Objekt verbracht. Es war alles sehr sauber (Häuser und Pool wurden 1x gereinigt, Handtücher/Bettwäsche wurde gewechselt), das Schlafhaus war dank der Klimaanlage angenehm kühl und die Küche war gut ausgestattet. Da es sehr warm war, haben wir die überwiegende Zeit im bzw. am Pool verbracht. Der war echt toll...über eine Treppe kam man ins Wasser. Auch wenn die Sonne zu sehr scheint, findet man überall auf dem großzügigen Gelände ein schattiges Plätzchen. Ob unter den Sonnenschirmen am Pool, unter der mit Wein bewachsenen Pergola oder den großen Bäumen auf der Rückseite der Häuser. Die Kommunikation mit Erika von der Hausverwaltung war reibunglos und sehr gut.

Perfekter Entspannungsurlaub

Sehr schöne und vorallem sehr saubere Villa mit eigenem Pool, der sogar ca. alle 3 Tage gereinigt wird. Sogar Handtücher, Bettwäsche etc. wird bei längerem Aufenthalt gewechselt. Das Haus hat eine schöne ruhige Lage und man kommt von dort aus überall schnell hin. Allerdings ist in dem angrenzenden Ort nicht viel geboten. Goran ist ein sehr netter und aufmerksamer Vermieter, gab es Fragen oder Problem, wurde dies gleich beantwortet oder sofort gelöst. Alles in allem ein sehr gelungener Urlaub. Auf jedenfall empfehlenswert!

Sehr empfehlenswert!

Sehr professioneller und zuverlässiger Vermieter! Hat auf Fragen sehr zeitnah geantwortet und war sehr darum besorgt, dass alles passt ohne aufdringlich zu sein! Wohnbereich und Essbereich räumlich getrennt in zwei verschiedenen Gebäuden (Entfernung 2 Meter). Alles sehr, sehr sauber, Handtücher in ausreichender Zahl, Ist genauso aus wie auf den Bildern. Ruhige Lage. Wir kommen wieder! Vielen Dank!

About the host

Hosted by Kandida

Host profile image
I'm a mother to a 3 year old girl and I love spending time with her. I also enjoy good food, music, yoga and hiking.

I host two rental properties. I prefer to do it in person and meet people on a one-to-one basis. I have met many interesting people through rental services and some of them are now my friends.

I hope you will enjoy Casa Maria. I will do all I can to make your holiday run smoothly.

I look forward to meeting you!

Why they chose this property

This property is part of a larger estate which has been in the family for generations. The house was knocked down to the ground in 1992, and the original stone was used to rebuild it from scratch. We renovated it in 2014. It is very calm and quiet. It has an aura of tradition combined with some of the perks of modernity: fast internet connection, dish washers, satellite TV, pool.

What makes this property unique

The house has a garden and park that guests are welcome to use. On these 2 acres of pristine land. My previous guests have nicknamed it 'the house for tourists who don't like tourists'.
