Cosy and homely, yet refined and rather special, Villa Sancta Maria Motovun has a boho-chic vibe, which we loved. It's set in big private gardens, planted with palms, lemon trees, oleander, azalea and fragrant lavender bushes (all beautifully lit at night), and there's a turquoise pool off to one side, plus an organic vegetable garden where you can pick your own produce.

Other facilities include bicycles, a small playground, outdoor gym equipment and a sports pitch with flood-lighting. Behind Villa Sancta Maria Motovun, overgrown woodland is slowly being cleared and replanted with olive groves - the region is noted for its excellent olive oil and fine wines, as well as seasonal delicacies such as white truffles and wild asparagus, all of which you must try while you stay

About the Location

Croatia, Motovun

Motovun is a village in central Istria, Croatia above the Mirna River valley that developed on the site of an ancient city called Castellieri. It is situated on a hill 270 meters above sea level with houses scattered all over the hill. On the inner walls, there are several coats-of-arms that indicate different Montona ruling families and two gravestones of Roman inhabitants dating from the 1st century. Motovun is famed and for many the most attractive Istrian medieval town whose panoramic view is one of the famous symbols of Istria. The medieval town has been a pole of attraction for tourists for a long time and for whoever visits the Istrian peninsula.

In the 10th and 11th centuries, it belonged to the Bishop of Parenzo and from 1278 it was taken over by Venetians and surrounded by solid walls which still stand intact. The three parts of the town are connected by a system of internal and external fortifications with towers and city gates including elements of Romanesque, Gothic and Renaissance styles, built between the 14th and 17th centuries. Motovun It is a typical example of Venetian colonial architecture offering breathtaking views from its strong stone walls to verdant vineyards, the Mirna valley and St. Mark forest in a beautiful palette of colors which change according to the season. View ranges from the most Istrian Mountain Ucka all the way to the sea near Novigrad. One of the most beautiful views of Motovun stretches from the village Kaldir, located on a hill five kilometers southeast of Motovun.

Buzzier than ever before, Croatia is increasing its number of travelers each year! This Adriatic country is well known for its rich history, amazing waters, exceptional wines, and delicious food. No wonder why it gains visitors every year!. Croatia’s beautiful shaped coastline is without a doubt its best attraction.
