Check-in is from 4:00 PM and check-out is strictly at 10:00 AM.
Early check-in is usually not possible as our thorough cleaning process involves a team of 8 people and takes considerable time. On rare occasions when cleaning finishes early, we will contact you on the day to let you know if earlier check-in is available.
Late check-out is not possible as we need to ensure the villa is ready for the next guests.
The villa has 9 bedrooms, each with its own private bathroom. We are legally permitted to accommodate up to 18 guests. However, we can make an exception for up to 2 additional children, bringing the maximum to 20 guests.
Yes, we have a saltwater pool with three different depth areas suitable for all ages.
Pool heating is available in early May and late September–October, depending on weather conditions. Please note that if outdoor temperatures are below 15°C, pool heating will not be effective enough to reach a comfortable swimming temperature.
Important: Pool heating only works effectively when the pool is covered while not in use – this is essential.
The jacuzzi/spa can be heated up to 40°C and is available throughout your stay.
Yes, free private parking is available on the property for multiple vehicles.
Public transport in this area is very limited and not practical for getting around. Bus connections are infrequent and do not serve the immediate area around the villa.
Taxis are available but can be quite expensive as they usually come from Pula. For occasional trips, we recommend using Uber or Cammeo/Wizi for better prices.
However, we strongly recommend having a car during your stay. This will allow you to easily visit beaches, supermarkets, restaurants, and explore the beautiful Istrian region at your own pace.
Unfortunately, we do not have any partnerships with car rental companies. If you are arriving by flight, we suggest checking which rental options are available at your arrival airport.
The nearest beach in Fazana is just a 5-7 minute drive away. We can recommend several beautiful beaches in the area including Kap Kamenjak nature reserve.
Please note: For a pleasant stay, we strongly recommend that our guests have a car. Walking to the beach is not really possible, and taxis or other means of transportation are either difficult to arrange or quite expensive in this area.
Unfortunately, we do not have any partnerships with car rental companies. If you are arriving by flight, we recommend checking which car rental options are available at your arrival airport.
There are several airports within reasonable driving distance:
• Pula Airport (PUY) – approximately 15 minutes by car, the closest option
• Rijeka Airport (RJK) – approximately 1.5 hours by car
• Trieste Airport (TRS), Italy – approximately 1.5 hours by car
• Zagreb Airport (ZAG) – approximately 2.5 hours by car
Pula Airport is the most convenient, though it may have limited flight connections depending on the season. Rijeka and Trieste offer more international connections and are still within comfortable driving distance.
We strongly recommend having a car during your stay, as the villa is located in an area where public transport is not convenient. Unfortunately, we do not have any partnerships with car rental companies, so we suggest checking which rental options are available at your arrival airport.
If you choose to arrive by taxi, please be careful about booking taxis at the airport as they typically charge much higher fees than Uber or Cammeo/Wizi.
Yes, high-speed WiFi is available throughout the property, including the outdoor areas.
Pets are welcome at the property, but there are important rules to follow:
• Pets must not wander outside the property without supervision
• They are only permitted on the ground floor – upper floors are strictly off-limits

Please note that beach towels are not included. We kindly ask that the white towels we provide are not used at the beach.
