Lovely welcome by the host who truly cares for the guests - incl. fresh vegetables from their own farm and garden.
The house is well cut (large kitchen/dining anrea, living room but also great to separate or retreat in individual rooms for some quiet) and equipped for groups and families who like to cook their own meals. The grill house is a highlight even in hot summer.
The pool & terrace were our place of choice, especially in the afternoon and with some shade.
Overall a very recommendable venue and terrific host!
Es war traumhaft! Das Haus ist genial - 4 Schlafzimmer, 4 Badezimmer, 3 Küchen, 2 Wohnzimmer, ein Kinderspielraum, 2 Waschmaschinen und sogar ein Trockner. Im Garten viel Platz für alle, mehr als genug Liegen beim tollen und immer sauberen Pool. Ein tolles Spielgerüst samt Schaukeln für Kinder gibts auch. Die Lage (Buje) war für uns auch perfekt. Es sind nur ein paar wenige Minuten zu einem privaten Strand, man ist in Kürze auf der Autobahn, Ausflugsziele wie Triest, Portoroz, Porec, Pula etc. lassen sich so bequem und einfach erreichen. Gute Lokale sind auch zu Fuß erreichbar. Die Vermieterin und ihre Familie sind super freundlich und sind auch immer für uns für Tipps und Tricks erreichbar gewesen. Ob es eine Empfehlung für ein gutes Restaurant oder eine Bootsvermietung war - alle unsere Wünsche wurden erfüllt. Wir kommen garantiert nochmal hier her!
