A small town, but a large tourist destination. Medulin literally abounds in beautiful beaches and all the accompanying tourist attractions. The largest number of accommodation options is right next to the beaches, but you will not go wrong if you book an apartment a few hundred metres from the shore. Wherever you are, you will enjoy the offer on hand, and it is worth walking to the beach because there is plenty to see along the way.
Besides a large number of private accommodations, a fair number of luxury hotels can also be found by the beaches and a little further away. Accommodation fills up at the height of the season, so it would be good to book in time. If you are lucky enough to arrive in Medulin, you will be welcomed by quality service and a very good offer.
Medulin has some of the most beautiful beaches. We have written about them before, so we will just mention Kažela beach, Bijeca beach and the sandy beach that bears the name of this small town – Medulin Beach. After spending the day swimming and relaxing in the summer sun, you can complete the evening with a varied range of catering. Medulin has numerous fish restaurants, pizzerias and similar establishments, as well as cafés and bars offering refreshments with good fun and music.
A stroll along the waterfront is an excellent choice for romantics, young couples or parents with slightly older children. The walks are pleasant, relaxing and perfect before going to bed.
Young people, of course, can also spend the night hours in one of the nightclubs that stay open late into the night. There will be no shortage of fun in Medulin. Visit us and have a good time.
If you want to book accommodation in this small place on the eastern coast of Istria, we see no reason not to. In fact, hurry, because accommodation will be full even before the summer season actually begins.
Rabac is a small town in size, but it is still a large tourist destination and one of the better-known ones in Istria. The town itself lies in a gentle bay on the eastern coast of Istria, in front of the Veli Vrata strait. With a view of the entrance to the Bay of Rijeka, this “sentinel” offers a magnificent panoramic view of the traffic through the channel and the silhouette of the island of Cres.
Rabac offers a large number of accommodation options, both hotel accommodation and smaller private apartments and rooms. Today Rabac is considered the tourist centre of the Kvarner, especially because of its beautiful beaches and clean sea. It is a favourite place for families with younger children, but also for younger guests who, apart from swimming and sunbathing, will enjoy the night life. The gastronomic offer keeps to high standards of overall tourist provision. Real gourmets will have plenty to enjoy here, as will sweet-toothed people who like to treat their palate. Visit Rabac and spend unforgettable moments with your family. Book accommodation and enjoy the nearby beaches of this small town.
Poreč is one of the better-known towns in Istria, historically significant but also a major tourist centre. It is located on the western coast of the Istrian peninsula.

A small town with a great name – Umag. It is located on the north-western coast of the Istrian peninsula, and is one of the better-known towns for hosting various sports competitions. Besides this, Umag is the tourist centre of the region and accordingly offers only top-quality service to its guests.
The tourist industry of this town comes first when we talk about development and prosperity there. Umag offers its guests tourist resorts, but also numerous hotels and private accommodation. The town itself and its closer surroundings abound in sports grounds, where tennis stands out, for which it is also world-famous.
Besides tennis we must mention the other sports facilities available here. If you visit Umag you can enjoy diving, sailing, water-skiing, surfing, basketball, football or volleyball. There are also handball courts, as well as opportunities for horse riding. Because of the sports grounds and the offer in that respect, Umag is most attractive to sports-minded guests.

Vrsar was “until yesterday” a small fishing village, but “overnight” it transformed into a beautiful tourist town on the western coast of Istria. Today it is known as a tourist place of gentle appearance and atmosphere.
It lies between Rovinj and Poreč, which of course favours the development of the small town. We are not surprised by its orientation towards tourism, and by the rich offer in that context.
It is interesting to note that Vrsar has a sports airport. Besides the many guests who long for swimming and sunbathing, Vrsar has special guests – aerobatic pilots, and a loyal audience who enjoy aerial acrobatics.
The beaches of this place are special for their rocky shores, and it is interesting to mention that Vrsar has the largest nudist beach in Europe. This is Koversada beach, which we described before. This beach has further promoted Vrsar, with special guests who return year after year.
During the summer season various cultural events, concerts of serious music and other similar events are held in Vrsar. The accommodation offer follows demand and everyone can book. See the offer of private accommodation in Vrsar. Visit us and enjoy unforgettable moments in Vrsar.
