With a
mild Mediterranean climate of 2,387 hours of sunshine a year, sea temperatures
reach 25°C and average air temperature of 25°C in summer, are all reasons why
Istria justly claims the title of an ecological and healthy tourist destination.
Along 445
kilometers of the Istrian coast of the heart-shaped peninsula Istria abounds
with natural harbours and eleven marinas. From the legacy of Venetian rule
coastal resorts resemble Venice with colourful painted waterfront buildings.
Inland small historical towns perch on hillsides reminiscent of Tuscany. In
Pula the Roman amphitheatre attracts acclaim from visitors from around the
world.
Unlike
other Mediterranean venues Croatian prices are still reasonable even in tourist
areas, and again, the Italian influence prevails with ice-cream bars displaying
every flavour imaginable from a mere 30p per cone!
Abreakaway highly recommends this beautifully restored hotel set a few minutes
drive from the coast. Within easy reach of Istria's enchanting towns and
coastal resorts this hotel is a real find. The proprietors offer every
hospitality to their guests including a sauna, large wooden sunbeds, and towels
around the pool to dry off after a refreshing swim in the lovely pool
overlooking the Istrian countryside. Rooms are large and airy with elegant
furnishings and modern bathrooms.
ABREAKAWAY RECOMMENDED HOTEL
The elegant award wining restaurant offers a vast gastronomic array of fresh
typical seasonal specialties, like fish, truffles, mushrooms, ham, mouth
watering steak and game and other typical Istrian specialities with a vast
choice of regional and international wines from the wine cellar. Breakfast and
dinner can be served on the terrace overlooking the attractive swimming pool and
orchards beyond. Guests can relax in the pleasant wine-bar sampling the fine
wines from the cellar.
The
traditional village
is famous for its winemakers, olive growers and as member of the Italian
association “Città del vino”. A “small town of great discoveries”
because guests can enjoy famous folk festivals explore caves, tour typical rural
settlements of stone houses, go hunting or enjoy gathering mushrooms and
asparagus. During the summer this small town hosts the International
summer art school. Many visitors enjoy cycling around the area too.
Croatia has something to offer everyone whatever their interest.
