On arrival we were greeted warmly by the host Carmilla, plus her partner Adrian had phoned us the day before to check on our arrival time. We felt very welcomed and were shown in detail all the facilities of the villa. It was very clean and we had everything that we needed for a relaxing two week holiday. The location of the villa is very central in Istria and so we were able to drive to all the places we wanted to visit. The villa has fantastic views across the valley and of the town of Motovun on the hill. There are a few houses nearby, but apart from that it was very secluded. The swimming pool was ideal as it was not too deep and had a shallow shelf to lie on. The kitchen was well equipped and there was a great BBQ as well. The beds were comfortable and all the rooms were spacious. There were also two bikes available for our use and we were able to cycle to the local shop in Livade for bread in the morning. Nearby in the local villages there are many restaurants with Croatian food and we enjoyed eating at the restaurants in Motovun as well. Carmilla visited us after the first week to bring us freshly cleaned linen for the beds and towels for the bathrooms. We would highly recommend a stay at this fantastic villa.
Wunderschöne Villa zum entspannen. So schön wie auf den Fotos! Liebe Gastgeber und toll ausgestattetes Haus. Schöner Blick auf Motovun und tolles Panorama. Top Lage für Ausflüge in Istrien. Wir hatten eine tolle Zeit hier und kommen aufjedenfall wieder!
Beautiful old stone house restored with all the modern features. Location is stunning - very isolated with beautiful views and only sounds of nature. It's only half an hour to the coast although we prefer the interior especially during high summer season. Karmela and Adrian are wonderful hosts. The house is equipped with everything one can possibly need, including a telescope - there is an open sky with very little light pollution. We had seven adults in the house and we felt very comfortable, mostly because we spend majority of our time sitting on the covered terrace or around the pool. I would love to come back!
