Wir hatten eine wunderschöne Zeit in diesem tollen Ferienhaus. Die Kommunikation mit dem Gastgeber war perfekt. Er war stets erreichbar und hat sich immer sofort um alles gekümmert. Uns wurde sofort ein zweites Kinderbett zur Verfügung gestellt als wir danach fragten. Das Haus war sehr sauber sehr gut ausgestattet. Die Küchenausstattung lies keine Wünsche offen. Die Schafzimmer und Bäder im ersten Stock sind groß und geräumig. Die meiste Zeit haben wir am sehr schönen Pool verbracht.Es war ein perfekter Urlaub. Wir können das Haus nur weiterempfehlen.

Séjour agréable et reposant

Endroit calme avec de très beaux paysages et magnifiques criques à 5 minutes en voiture pour se rafraîchir entre mer et montagne. Maison très bien conçue, nous étions 8 dont 4 adultes et 4 adolescents et la place était largement suffisante. L’espace billard et sauna ont été appréciés.

Auf jeden Fall sein Geld wert

Super Sauber, mit allem was man im Urlaub benötigt ausgestattet. Auch kleinere Reparaturen,die beanstandet wurden,wurden direkt in Angiff genommen und korrigiert. Kontaktperson war immer erreichbar und sehr nett. Meer wirklich nur in Sichtweite, Strandbesuch empfehlen wir nur mit Auto, was aber unserer Meinung in der Preisfindung berücksichtigt wurde. Vielen Dank für die tolle Auszeit.

Alles super :-)

Wunderbar, hat gepasst wie erwartet. Und auch der Pool war etwas separat, sodass wir mir den kleinen Kindern keine Angst haben mussten, dass sie unbeaufsichtigt reinfallen.

About the host

Hosted by Avelino Percan

Host profile image
I’m passionate about creating a welcoming and relaxing space where guests can enjoy the beauty of Istria. My grandfather is from Rakalj, and this village has always been close to my heart. Hosting allows my family and me to share the local culture, hidden beaches, and scenic spots we love, helping visitors create unforgettable holiday memories while feeling completely at home.

Why they chose this property

Rakalj is a charming village with a peaceful atmosphere, stunning coastal views, and nearby towns full of summer festivals and authentic Istrian cuisine. Growing up with family roots here, we fell in love with the landscape, the sea, and the rich local traditions. It’s the perfect balance of relaxation, outdoor activities, and cultural experiences—an area we’re proud to share with our guests.

What makes this property unique

Villa Sole is more than a rental—it’s our family home, originally built for us to enjoy together. My mother, a doctor, my father, an electrical engineer, and I, a university professor, designed this house with love and attention to detail, blending comfort with Istrian charm. We hope to share our passion for the villa, the pool, and the surrounding area with our guests, giving them a true sense of home while exploring the beauty of Rakalj and the Kvarner Bay.
