Villa Hidden Istria is a contemporary retreat set among the rolling landscapes of northern Istria, offering space, privacy and thoughtful design for up to eight guests. Completed in 2025, this five-bedroom home combines modern comforts with a strong connection to its surroundings, creating an inviting base for families and groups looking to experience Croatia beyond the well-trodden coastal hotspots.

Spread across two floors, the villa has been designed to bring people together. On the lower level, expansive glass walls connect the open-plan living, dining and kitchen area to the terrace and heated saltwater swimming pool, allowing natural light to flow throughout the home. An indoor wellness area with a sauna and hydromassage tub offers a dedicated space to unwind, while the outdoor kitchen and wood-fired grill set the scene for long alfresco meals overlooking the garden.

Children have their own space too, with a separate playhouse tucked within the grounds, while adults can enjoy the billiards table, bocce court and peaceful outdoor lounges. Sustainability is woven into the villa's design, with solar panels, rainwater collection systems and an electric vehicle charging point.

Just a short drive from the beaches of Umag and the hilltop towns of Grožnjan and Motovun, Villa Hidden Istria places the region's food, wine and cultural treasures within easy reach.

• A car is recommended to make the most of the surrounding countryside, beaches and nearby towns.
• Please note that young groups are not permitted. 
• The nearest beach is approximately 10km away, so coastal days out require a short drive.
