A PLACE WHERE VACATION BECOMES AN EXPERIENCE
Emerging from ancient grapevines this old fashioned Istrian house, surrounded with olive groves and Mediterranean plants, with the view of the sea and old Savudrija light house, is the ideal place to relax and escape from daily stress. Sitting in the shade of grapevines, hearing the birds sing, isolated from traffic noise by thick shrubbery, will soon give you being at home feeling.
MONTENETO A quiet street, friendly bilingual locals, in vicinity of the sea, is located between Savudrija and Umag.

Istria - Peninsula of unimpaired nature, just steps away from Central Europe, at the foot of snowy Alps, over the wavy fields of lavender, vineyards and olive groves and to the blue of the endless Adriatic.
Mild Mediterranean climate, medieval towns, churces' facades, old rural households, romantic fire places and fragrances of wine cellars that is Istria.
Everything is intimate and friendly nature, towns and people. |
