Die Villa Katherina ist ein historisches Haus das sehr liebevoll restauriert wurde. Es fehlt an absolut nichts.
Ein Higlight sind sicher die beiden Pools und die Sauna,
absolut perfekt integriert.
Schön ist auch die Umgebung im Bergland Istriens mit Wanderwegen und jede Menge Panoramablicken, wobei natürlich anzumerken ist das man schon gut zu Fuß sein muss.
Die persönliche Betreuung durch den Besitzer der Villa ist herausragend. Immer sehr schnell zur Stelle wenn man ein Problem hat und wirklich ausgesprochen nett.
Hunde sind hier sehr willkommen.
Wir waren begeistert.
Tolle Unterkunft mit allem was man braucht!
Zwar mitten in Istrien aber gute Ausgangslage wenn man nicht jeden Tag am gleichen Ort sein möchte sondern verschiedene Städte/Strände erkunden möchte! Sehr unkomplizierter und netter Vermieter!

Schönes altes istrisches Haus mit moderner Einrichtung. Bei Übergabe erfolgte eine kurze Einweisung durch den netten Vermieter. Bei Problemen war er innerhalb von 15 Minuten da. Highlights waren die beiden Pools. Kurzum alles Super!!! Besser geht es nicht! Wir kommen gerne wieder!
We enjoyed our stay in this property. The neighbourhood is really quiet and beautiful. It was really perfect. The bedrooms were really pretty too perfect for five people and we loved to cook in the nice kitchen.
