Wine hotels tucked away in the countryside

Istria offers exceptional boutique accommodations, where history meets modern comfort. Stay in a beautifully restored stanzia [/ˈstan.t͡sja/], an ancient stone farm estate transformed into an elegant retreat with just a handful of rooms, a wine cellar, and a pool—often surrounded by olive groves, orchards, and vineyards for a truly immersive experience.

The highlight? On-site restaurants serving exquisite local cuisine, perfectly paired with the region’s finest wines.

Foodie-forward adventures

Share a meal with your loved ones after an immersive experience—truffle hunting, olive oil tasting, or a behind-the-scenes look at a local winery. Perhaps even a visit to a family-run cheese farm!

The people of Istria take immense pride in their heritage and their deep connection to nature, serving both their community and curious travelers with warmth and authenticity. Listen to stories that transport you through time, revealing traditions passed down from the peninsula’s earliest settlers.

With over twenty restaurants featured in the MICHELIN Guide—three of them holding a coveted star—Istria is a true culinary gem.

The art of the stroll

Stroll through picturesque towns and villages, each with its own unique charm and artistic spirit. Explore the hilltop gems of Grožnjan and Motovun in the heart of Istria, marvel at the coastal beauty of Rovinj, and step back in time in Pula, home to a remarkably preserved 2,000-year-old Roman amphitheater.

Venture to the fascinating Brijuni Islands, an archipelago rich in history and curiosities. Discover a safari park with exotic animals, ancient dinosaur footprints, a 1,600-year-old olive tree, and the site of pioneering malaria eradication trials—all in a destination once favored by the Viennese elite.

“And while the Istrian truffle is premium grade, its culture is free of snobbery, intrigue and astronomical prices found in Piedmont or the Perigord region of France"
