Fantastic family villa in beautiful Istria
The villa was perfect for our holiday with family and friends. The villa was in a cluster of about 5 houses in the country but only 5 minutes drive to a few little towns. We really enjoyed taking the bikes (provided by the villa) around the locals area each day.
We used both houses which fitted us all in very comfortably (15). All the rooms were clean with a fantastic shabby chic, traditional style. The kitchens were very well equipped and we loved the outdoor kitchen in the pool house too. The front garden area and bbq were great. The small details made the difference such as candle lanterns and herbs and fruit growing in the gardens to use.
Lots of space in the garden for the kids to run around and play (but no gates so did need to make sure none escaped!). Plenty of sun beds and chairs to relax in. The pool was great for the kids with a consistent depth. Neven came to clean the pool several times which was great.
All the rooms were very spacious. There was fresh, clean linen and towels provided and a washing machine to hand. We did have to do a little bit of ‘child proofing’ of the rooms and stair cases (mixed further around) to ensure the little children were safe (age 3), but this was easily done.
Neven was extremely attentive to our needs and was easily contacted by text. He responded to our every need. He even came to check on us when we encountered a few scorpions (we didn’t know they were native Croatia). He recommended some lovely places to visit too.
Thank you for a lovely stay. We really hope to be back one day. Your quaint farmhouse became our wonderful holiday home full of memories
