Villa Civana

The villa

Flanked by Island Cres and the Adriatic Sea, Villa Civana is a luxury holiday home situated in Istria, one of Croatia’s most multicultural regions. It sleeps eight guests in four bedrooms.

The living area is bright and airy, artfully blending a chic mix of rustic and modern elements. Whip up your favourite cuisine in the adjoining, open - plan kitchen. Modern and well - equipped, it features sleek countertops and soothing white cabinetry.

The four inviting bedrooms guarantee a comfortable night’s sleep. Each has a double bed and a private bathroom. One bedroom has a large bathtub set against lush Mediterranean landscapes. After a long day, unwind in the Swedish sauna or relax your weary muscles in the jacuzzi by the private deck. Spend hours in the outdoor pool or curl up with a book on comfy sun loungers. The villa offers ample space for endless stargazing and sundowner cocktails. Fire up the barbecue in the evening and grab a spot at the outdoor dining table for cosy al - fresco meals.

Epitomising a storybook holiday come to life, Villa Civana promises a perfect family - friendly retreat with ultra - glam facilities and magical vistas.

Istria is a haven for nature lovers and history buffs. With a unique dialect of its own and especially warm hospitality, it draws travellers from far and wide. Dig into sumptuous flavours at a local restaurant in the nearby Rabac. If you’re visiting late in the summer or early autumn, don’t miss your chance to enjoy some of the most exquisite truffles at the truffle festival.

Spend an afternoon exploring charming hilltop villages known for their laid - back ambience and high - quality wine. Try the white malvazija wine or red teran, easily found in local supermarkets. Go olive oil tasting, spend time exploring picturesque streets and sample pršut — Croatia’s version of prosciutto. If you want to spend the day in the lap of nature, cycle or hike through lush green routes, many of which take you to family farms and coastal regions of the peninsula.
