More than expected!

Fantastic villa in an exceptional position with a view where you can dream... We were 7 adults, 2 children ans 2 infants.. Villa gave our family exceptional living accommodation with the pool being our second home, we even moved our cooking into summer kitchen area next to the pool which has everything we needed,even the fridge :) Great land and nature around our 2 kids even wanted to camp outside how nice it is. Interior of the house is very nicely designed. There are few really good tavernas close with local Istrian dishes which even delivered us food when we wanted. House manager Ivona was very helpful. Would definitely recommend this place.

Wunderschöne Erfahrung

Der Aufenthalt in diesem Haus war von Anfang an einfach fantastisch. Wir wurden herzlich empfangen und alles verlief völlig problemlos. Das Haus ist wunderschön eingerichtet und sehr gemütlich, der Garten und das Grundstück sind wie aus einem Traum. Eine absolute Empfehlung für Familien mit Kindern, es gibt so viel Platz zum Spielen im Freien, dass man eigentlich gar keine Ausflüge machen muss, wenn man einfach nur entspannen möchte. Wir würden dieses Erlebnis auf jeden Fall gerne wiederholen!

Einzigartiges Erlebnis in der Villa Vigini

Ich hatte das Vergnügen, meinen Aufenthalt in der Villa Vigini zu verbringen, und es war schlichtweg atemberaubend. Diese Villa verkörpert Eleganz, Komfort und bietet ein unvergessliches Erlebnis inmitten einer bezaubernden Umgebung. Die Villa Vigini liegt an einem malerischen Ort und bietet eine perfekte Mischung aus Ruhe und Zugänglichkeit. Die Aussicht ist atemberaubend, und die abgeschiedene Lage schafft eine Oase der Entspannung, während die wichtigsten Attraktionen bequem erreichbar sind. Die Villa selbst ist ein architektonisches Meisterwerk. Die Zimmer sind geschmackvoll eingerichtet und strahlen Luxus aus. Moderner Komfort und traditionelle Elemente vereinen sich zu einer einladenden Atmosphäre. Jeder Raum in der Villa Vigini ist bis ins kleinste Detail durchdacht. Die Annehmlichkeiten der Villa Vigini sind erstklassig. Der private Pool und die Terrasse bieten nicht nur Entspannung, sondern auch einen atemberaubenden Blick auf die Umgebung. Die Liebe zum Detail bei der Gestaltung des Gartens trägt zu einem einzigartigen Erlebnis bei. Das Personal in der Villa Vigini ist nicht nur professionell, sondern auch außerordentlich herzlich. Ihr Engagement für exzellenten Service und ihre freundliche Art trugen maßgeblich zu meinem unvergesslichen Aufenthalt bei. Mein Aufenthalt in der Villa Vigini war ein absolut beeindruckendes Erlebnis. Diese Villa ist mehr als nur eine Unterkunft – sie ist ein Ort, an dem Luxus auf Naturschönheit trifft. Ich kann die Villa Vigini uneingeschränkt empfehlen und freue mich schon jetzt auf meine nächste Gelegenheit, zurückzukehren.

Urlaub

Ein wunderschönes, charmantes Steinhaus, sehr warm eingerichtet, somit fühlten wir uns wie zu Hause. Der Steinpavillon war meistens besetzt, da es dort immer kühl war und der Pool befindet sich gleich daneben. Sehr schöne Umgebung und sehr ruhig. Man kann sich entspannen.

Schönes Haus in schöner ruhiger Lage ...

... allerdings könnte dort wesentlich mehr auf Details geachtet werden. Ein TV lief nicht, Glühbirnen zum Teil kaputt etc. Ein Doppelbett mit Bad in einem Extra Häuschen, was aus der Beschreibung leider nicht hervorging. In diesem Extra Häuschen waren sehr viele Fliegen (50+) die wir täglich beseitigen mussten, in kleiner Anzahl jedoch immer wieder auftauchten - unsere Annahme dass sie durch den Abfluss kommen - abgesehen davon war es dennoch ein schöner Aufenthalt, in einer schönen Anlage mit einem schönen Pool.

Beautiful villa in central Istria

My family and I really liked this beautiful villa in central Istria. Very spacious inside and out side, decorated with great taste. Pool is big enough and the kids really enjoyed the playground, trampoline, table tennis and big soccer field. Ivona was very responsive with all our demands even field the fridge with our grocery list :) Entire property is very well maintained. I would recommend this villa to everyone traveling with kids.

Great stay

The villa is set in the beautiful central Istrian countryside close to Groznjan. The house is well equipped and tastefully decorated, and outside the pool and seating areas are lovely. The location is ideal for touring, biking and sightseeing with many interesting hilltop towns and coastal resorts within easy reach by car. We would not hesitate to recommend this delightful villa to anyone.

Great Stay!!!

The house is beautiful. Is has been refurbished with so much detail and care you simply have to love it. The location is great - in the middle of Istria so all tourist attractions are on a short distance drive, it is peaceful and tranquil and the view is stunning! It was so nice to return after a busy day at seaside or a beautiful city in the peaceful comfort of this home. Of course I do not have to mention the fact that the swimming pool is a big plus especially if you have children. I would re-book this house as well as recommend it to my friends so villa absolutely deserves the 5 stars!
