Really lovely place to stay. Remarkably quiet and peaceful given how close it is to Umag. Really nice garden too. Would definitely return

Das Haus ist exakt so wie die Bilder es zeigen, kein Weitwinkel war nötig! Es ist sauber, geräumig!

Wir waren für eine gute Woche hier, der Empfang und die Betreuung vor Ort waren herzlich und immer hilfsbereit. Wir fanden das Haus gut geschnitten, geräumig und ideal gelegen, wenn man kein Beachjunkie ist. Für uns und die Hunde war es ein Paradies! Wir konnten viele Rehe und andere Wildtiere sehen. Unsere Vermieter haben ein sehr sauberes Haus an uns vermietet, das alles an Zubehör hat, was man sich wünscht. Es gab einen Grill, die überdachte Terrasse und eine gut ausgestattete Küche. Marjana hat uns sogar mit Obst aus dem eigenen Garten versorgt! Es waren magische Tage hier!
