Villa L'Esprit - charming countryside villa in Istria with 5 bedrooms for ten guests with a pool by MyWaycation

The mountainous center of the peninsula is home to charming villages, producing their own olive oil and delicious wine and if you find yourself here in late summer to early fall be sure to attend a truffle festival offering exquisite truffles in every way known to the gastronomic world.

Top Ferien-Villa

Das Haus bzw. die gesamte Anlage war einfach nur Top. Super Ausstattung, sehr sauber, toller Pool (leicht salzig), ruhige Lage (das Dorf besteht aus ca. 20 Häusern). Vom Gasgrill über holzbefeuerten Pizza-Ofen im Freien ist alles vorhanden. Einzige Nachteile sind die schmalen Doppel-Betten (wenn man sein 2x2m Bett gewohnt ist) und die mäßigen Parkmöglichkeiten mit mehreren Autos. Von Foli aus erreicht man nahezu alles in Istrien in max. ca. 30-40 Minuten. Wir waren drei Familien mit Kindern zwischen 8 und 14 Jahren. Allen hat es sehr gut in der Villa gefallen.
