Lieu très agreable pour passer du temps au calme

How can we explain, what a wonderful Time started by booking the House of Marco. From the very beginning he and his lovely family were helpful, friendly, uncomplicated and always connectable. When we arrived his family welcomed us and gave us a relaxed start in our holidays with some great tips! ( thanks for the greatest cevapcici) We are a family with two little boys who likes to run and explore and needs space. And at Marcos house we all found that for them. And also we found what we looked for: space, silence, nature and the starting point for trips to the wonderful coasts ,beaches and citys. the nice city Pula you can reach in 20 minutes. If you want to walk beside the big tourism - Marcos house is the perfect place for. We had a wonderful time for 14days, Thanks for all Marco, Maja and your parents, We come back Uwe and nicole

We had a really good stay at the vacation house of Marco. He and his family gave us a warm welcome. They gave us great white wine as a welcome gift from there own vineyard. The location is near the see, just a view minutes driving. Yet, this beach can't beat the nature park in Pula: bleu water, quiet beaches and beautiful rocks!

We loved the house for the terrace view into the huge garden, for the quiet surroundings and for the cats, that visited every day - for food, of course ;). The garden is also great for watching the stars at night. The house feels comfortable with its old style furniture but modern bathroom and kitchen and is well equipped. Marco's nice familiy came to give us a very warm welcome and provided us with really useful advice concerning for example the best beaches and events. The situation of the house is great for exploring the surroundings, for example Rabac and Pula, because the main road is close. We had a wonderful time here - Marco and family, thank you again!

We’ve been warmly welcomed by Marko and his sister Maja at Marko’s vacation house. They took the time to gave us the best informations to organize our stay, that helped us a lot ! The house is in a very quiet town and so perfect to relax, we slept very well there. It’s also a good starting point to visit Istria! The house is simple but great, we enjoyed the times spent on the little terrace, and the air conditioning (as we were in the summer) ! Marko and his family (we also met his father) are always available to answer to our questions, they are also motivated to make discover Istria to their guests. We really recommend this house !!

We, my family and I, are so happy that we rented Markos Vacation House one week during summer vacation. First of all the house is lovely, simply lovely. It not a big house, but there is plenty of room for a family like ours, with two smaller kids (2y and 5y). The house is both modern, with a newer bathroom and kitchen equipped with every you need, and also landly and very authentic. The terrace is just fantastic, and was we spend most of our time when we were at the house. There’s also a fine garden with place for the kids to run around, a to play with a small “basin”. The house is situated between 15-40min from everything that we wanted to see in Istria, and with a small and beautiful beach just nearby (6 mins to by car) we did not feel like being “to far away” from everything. We were happy that we had a base a bit away from all the tourists and noise, where our kids could run around and act all crazy without bothering anyone. Second of all Marko and he’s family are just lovely people. Marko was very helpful and replied swiftly to all our questions both before and during our stay. He was also checked in un us (via Airbnb) during our stay, just to make sure everything was alright. It was Markos sister and mother who showed us the house at arrival and said goodbye when we checked out. They were also very helpful, and gave good tips on very to go and what to see. We felt very welcome - it was like borrowing a house from relatives. Last, but not least, Croatia is a beautiful country, with many beautiful beaches and lovely clear blue water. We personally enjoyed the small local beach and the beach at Duga Uvala the most (especially the latter of the two) – but also Premantura and the beach nearby Safari Bar was a fantastic place (if you can cope with many tourists). We drove around a lot, and found many smaller cities both close to and away from the sea that we enjoyed – especially Fazana was fantastic and also Rovinj.     All in all we can very much recommend to visit Croatia and to stay in this lovely house.

We had a great stay in the lovely house of Daria and family. We are a family of 5 (3 girls aged 9, 14 and 16). The house was perfect for us. It is in a very quiet location just 2 minutes from Trget and 20 minutes from Labin. We absolutely loved the private pool. Daria and family was very friendly and had no problem of us arriving at 1.00 AM. Would recommend this house to everybody that is seeking privacy in luxurious surroundings.

We spent one wonderful, relaxing week in Villa Vickovi. Everything was perfect, the house, pool and surroundings. And Branko was a great host, thank you for everything! :)

The host canceled this reservation 348 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.

We had an amazing stay with Branco . The house , the estate , the village , the pool - everything was perfect . We will be back.

Everything was perfect and we felt very "at home" in Brankos house. He was good host and helped us with good advices, so everything was great!

If you are looking for some peace and quiet, beautiful surroundings, lots and lots of hiking opportunities, a nice and clean little house with a fire place and some real Croatian hospitality; this is your spot. Mij sister and I spent a week here in the dead of winter and it was just wonderful! We came by car and arrived around 5 or 6 in the afternoon. We were given a very warm welcome by Branko and his wife and we felt at home immediately. They explained the working of the fireplace, showed us around and told us a little about all the things we could do and places to visit. The house is in Rakalj, a sleepy village near the east coast of Istria. A hike to sea probably takes a half hour up until an hour and a half, depending on which trail you pick. The trails are pretty easy (bring some good shoes though) and the coast and surroundings are just beautiful! You can do a lot of exploring. There is a small pub in the village where you can drink real nice honey liquer (I think it's a Croatian specialty) and sit near the fire place and there is also a little supermarket in Rakalj which is about a 5 minute walk away. We made a lot of nice trips by car to several towns along the west coast. We also visited the beautiful island Cres. There's a ferry for Cres leaving from Brestova every hour or so. Getting to Brestova by car takes a small hour and the route is very scenic. Bring your car to Cres and visit the towns Beli and Cres. A beautiful daytrip! The week was all I expected and more: Istria really took my breath away. If you are not into skiing but like to get away in winter, I really recommend spending a few days or a week here. There's not a lot of tourism going on in winter, so it kinda feels like the whole of Istria is yours :-) Going here in summer is probably wonderful as well though: you still have the peace and quiet, but the more touristic area's are just a little drive away. The pool is wonderful if you have kids and if this house is a little small for your liking: Branko and his wife also rent out a bigger house. You can even rent both if you're a group. Branko and his wife are really really nice people and gave our week the extra spark. They invited us to our home in Pula so we visited them our last evening before leaving. We had a wonderful evening and we talked about a lot of different things. They're just really sweet, warm and wise people and they made sure we had everything we needed this week.

If you're searching for a relaxed and restful holiday place, than Branco’s cottage ‚Vickovi‘ in Rakalj is the place to be. The small House gives you all possibilities for relaxing: A barbeque, a first class swimming pool, a garden with terraces, air condition inside, a very well furnished Kitchen and a comfortable double bed (also recommended for large people). In Rakalj is a small Shop which is open the whole day from 7 a.m til 9 p.m. where you can find everything you need for daily requirement. Branco will show you the best beaches and the restaurants in this area (for example (URL HIDDEN) which offers very good pizza and awesome beef and fresh fish food ) and if you need something special, you can drive to the big supermarkets in Pula. We had a wonderful time in this phantastic cottage. Branko was very nice and a perfect host. Thanks for everything.

Everything was exactly as on the pictures - beautiful and very comfortable. Branko was a great host and gave us all the information we needed. We spent a lovely week there and hope to be back one day.

We had a very relaxed time in the appartment. The garden with the pool and BBQ was amazing and Branko gave us very good recommendations for restaurants and beaches. Everything was just as described and we felt very comfortable!

Iva and her family were great hosts! They were always prepared to help out, and even offered to fire up the barbecue for us before we came back to the apartment on our last evening. They also treated us with some home made schnapps, vegetables from their garden and home made wine and olive oil. The apartment is settled at the edge of a small village, meaning it is calm and quiet around, which we especially appreciated in the evening, after a whole day of sport activities. The convenient thing is, the village is also close to one of the main roads, so reaching all of our destinations in Istria was easy!

We had a wonderful stay in Puntera. The house was lovely and equipped with everything you need! Our hosts were charming and we were given some honey schnapps and local wine. The region of Istria is very charming. The only set back is it takes about 45 minutes to drive to a lot of the sights. Thank you for a lovely stay in your charming village!
