Istrian vineyard hideaway
A secluded 46-hectare Istrian estate of olive groves and vineyards, anchored by a pale stone farmhouse and tranquil sun-drenched courtyards.
“The entire spa is a bit of a dream. The results of a recent top-to-toe—and very successful—refurbishment are on full display.”

a country estate whose centerpiece is a 19th-century stone farmhouse, the first structure in what’s now a remarkably self-sufficient hospitality experience
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Quiet gravel tracks meander through surrounding pine woods down to the estate beach club on the Adriatic, overlooking the Brijuni islands.
The rooms
White Istrian stone, exposed timber beams, and earthy textiles define the interiors, while standalone residences and villas feature private gardens with plunge pools.
The pools
Bring a swimsuit.
An indoor heated pool looks out onto the grounds, and wooden decks edge the outdoor pool beside the vineyards.
The spa and sauna
Treatments draw on estate olive oil and botanicals, and an outdoor Finnish sauna cabin sits on the lawn.
Dogs stay too.
At the table
Tables sit beneath vine-draped pergolas, serving seasonal Mediterranean dishes dressed with the estate's own olive oils and wines.
How it began
Founded in the nineteenth century to supply a nearby military outpost, the abandoned stone homestead was rescued and revived as a working winery.
