Travel Guide

Very quite pedestrian village, which is accessible only by shuttle bus, just leave your car parked in the underneath car park, and explore this small hilly village on foot. Stumbled upon this village whilst driving towards Rovinj in Croatia.

Great spacious family villa
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Villa was in a beautiful setting. Would be beneficial if second bedroom had a chest of drawers as in the other bedroom. Niksa was very helpful and informative. Would definitely stay there again.
