Villa Amaia is set in the heart of the countryside, in Zupanici, only twelve kilometres from the Croatian Adriatic coast. The villa is a scenic forty-five-kilometre drive from the nearest international airport at Pula to your holiday home. The nearest minimarts and restaurants are two kilometres away, where you can stock up on provisions and enjoy some traditional local dishes.

The Istrian coastline is populated with stunning sandy beaches, where you can swim in crystal clear waters, snorkel, scuba dive, and enjoy a thrilling selection of watersports. Nature’s beauty is on your doorstep, with hiking and cycling trails, well-known walks, and rock climbing opportunities, especially through the nearby Ucka National Park. Istria is famous for its wineries, take a tour around a vineyard and sample the fruits of its harvest. Spend the day in the town of Rabac, with its beautiful beaches, where you can try your hand at kayaking, windsurfing, stand-up paddle boarding, a game of tennis, or horse riding across the dunes.

From there, take a boat trip to the island of Cres, where you can discover the beauty of the Blue Cave. Visit the original Roman town of Labin, enter through the city gates, walk its old streets, and admire the art galleries. Go further afield to the resort of Pula, a seafront city with a protected harbour and ancient ruins, where you can eat freshly caught seafood by the seashore.
