Die Villa Stefanija ist rundum zu empfehlen! Die Gastgeber sind sehr herzlich und man fühlt sich "wie zu Hause". Wir wurden jeden Abend wunderbar bekocht; alles ist sehr zwanglos und unkompliziert. Die Lage: ein Traum! Ein wunderschöner Ort zum entspannen. Gerne kommen wir wieder!
Une perle dont on aimerait presque garder le secret pour soi... Petit hôtel tout confort, chambre avec balcon et vue, sdb avec baignoire, possibilité de réserver jacuzzi et massages, piscine extérieure, terrasse avec canapés, endroit paradisiaque pour les amateurs de calme absolu. Propreté impeccable, personnel très aimable en général mais la propriétaire Duska mérite une mention toute spéciale, elle est absolument adorable, aime bien discuter et fait se sentir ses hôtes accueillis comme en famille. Le restaurant est excellent, petite carte mais rien que ça vaudrait déjà le détour. Petit déjeuner buffet très bien, même s'il a fallu attendre le 2ème jour pour du pain sans gluten (mais maintenant qu'ils sont au courant ça ne devrait plus poser problème, ils sont avertis!). Le chien et les chats ont agréablement animé nos repas et nos séances de farniente. Nous avons reçu plein de conseils avisés sur les choses à faire en Istrie par le personnel: sur place pas vraiment d'activités mais moyennant de petits déplacements en voiture toute l'Istrie est accessible (Pula, Labin, Motovun, et de nombreuses petites plages plus ou moins sauvages auxquelles on accède par de petits chemins). On n'avait pas envie de partir et on cherche l'occasion d'y retourner!!
The pool views are nice but that's about it. The management is outrageous, we have never seen this anywhere else, we were treated so badly for no reason. We spent 750euros for 2 days (450 rooms + 300 dinners, lunch and drinks), and we have never felt so unwelcome which ruined our stay. Ps. breakfast is just really bad.
Beautiful location, the owner went above and beyond to help us find different towns to visit. The only discomfort was that the rooms were very cold because the heaters didn't work. Other than that our stay was perfect. This is a must place to stay!
Trascorso due giorni stupendi in una atomosfera unica, con camere tutte vista mare e soleggiate. Abbiamo cenato a capodanno accompagnati dalla musica di una fisarmonica al lume di candela.Pranzo tutto a base di pesce curato nei minimi dettagli. La struttura dispone di sauna e idromassaggio con massaggi a pagamento.Lo staff cordiale e simpatico.Due giorni trascorsi in allegria accompagnati dal nostro piccolo cane cleo.Bellissima camera confortevole e pulita con terrazza e vista del mare e della piscina sottostante all'aperto. Pranzo e cena di qualita ottima e prezzo adeguato. Sicuramente un posto da ritornare
Tolles Hotel, fantastische Aussicht, super Persona
Super Pool, sehr nettes Team, gute Ausgangslage zu vielen schönen Punkten in Kroatien. Die Besitzerin hilft einem immer gerne. Schön familiär, da nur sieben Zimmer - sehr leckeres Frühstück und ein super Restaurant.
Wij hebben vorige maand 5 dagen enorm genoten van de service van dit kleinschalige hotel en de goede keuken. Duska en haar team zorgen voor een relaxte sfeer en niets is te veel moeite.
Fint läge med härlig utsikt. Trevlig ägarinna och fina rum. Underbar ifinitypool.
Minus för sedvanliga (i Kroatien) stenhårda resårmadrasser utan bäddmadrass samt en aning för dyrt.
Flott hotell med fantastisk utsikt. Hyggelig, serviceinnstilt personal. Rent og pent i en avslappende atmosfære. Deilig sted for noen dager. Vi bodde i President-suiten med våre 2 gutter. Stor leilighet med 2 bad. Ligger i øverste etasje med 2 balkonger med flott utsikt. "Byen" Puntera (Hvor Villaen ligger)har kun ca 100 innbyggere, og har ikke butikker, spisesteder. Hotellet har en bra restaurant. Barban ca 3 km unna er en liten by med 2 butikker, bank, 2-3 barer og 1 pizzarestaurant. Pula snaut 3 mil unna er en fin by med en vakker "Gamleby". Ca. 400 HRK (430-440 kr) i taxi til Pula.
