Central Istria
A private oasis among the olives
Newly built, quietly luxurious - and just minutes from the Adriatic.
Set in the green heart of Istria, between Pazin and Žminj, Villa Adistria is a small luxury made for slow days. Stone walls, warm wood, a long pool that mirrors the olive trees - and the sea, when you want it, is half an hour away.
The villa
Built with restraint
Villa Adistria was built with restraint. The architecture borrows from old Istrian farmhouses - pale stone, deep eaves, walls that hold the cool - and pairs them with the kind of comforts a modern stay deserves.
The village of Sveti Petar u Šumi has been here for nearly a thousand years. Its Pauline monastery still stands at the center, and the surrounding hills are stitched with olive groves and small vineyards.
