About this property

Valens Residence

The villa contains materials used to build the oldest Indo-European calendar “Orion”, found on Croatian territory. At the Valens Residences, you will find the centuries old Croatia oak upon which the City of Venice stands, reinterpretations of famous painters such as Vlaho Bukovac, whose works line the walls of the world’s most famous museums and galleries, and with the application of the accomplishments of the genius Nikola Testa, you can enjoy listening to the masterful works of Croatian musicians (Two Cellos, Maksim Mrvica and others), or play around in the kitchen with various local delicacies (truffles, olives and specialities of Mediterranean cuisine). Among the diverse offer of Croatia’s best wines, the Iločki Traminac stands above all, and today is savoured at the English palace. It was served at the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II and at the weddings of her grandsons. Vila Valens in Istria will open in 2019 and is planned as the first in a series of Croatian villas.

Top quality villa

We booked villa for a short stay but it was worth any second in it. Check in went really easy, we got all information about functionality and true story hiding about the house. The owner has an eye for details. To describe this adventure - because staying in the house is really adventure, I would just say exceptional! Thank you for hosting! We recommend and in any case coming back soon!
