Relaxed and well looked after

Review Submitted: August 18, 2009 Date of Stay: July 2009
Lovely setting for villa just around the corner from a quiet, relaxing village yet only a short distance to Porec and beaches. Great local eating in both village restaurants that are very good value for money. Well maintained villa with exceptionally clean rooms, excellent customer service from both the lady servicing the rooms and owner who were both friendly, helpful and always happy to help, great adv antage to have villa manager living nearby who was a wealth of local information. Visit to hill top villages of Motovan and Grosjan well worth a visit. Good wine tasting. Would definately recommend this property for a relaxing holiday.

Lovely Location, Comfortable Rooms

Cardamon La Paz Bolivia
Review Submitted: June 11, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2008
We have stayed here at least 3 times. It is exceptionally clean, the pool is wonderful, the town is relaxing, the views beautiful. The rooms are well maintained and the owner and manager provide excellent customer service. I have recommended Villa Visnjan to friends and family and they enjoyed it as well. During high season, this town offers calm to the crowded tourist cities nearby. Car or bike necessary to travel around the countryside.

From here, we visited Baradin Caves, Porec, Rovinje, Umag, Motovun and many other Istrian towns. We particularly enjoyed Astrofest and the wine tasting - every year at summer solstice.

Erholung in entspannter Umgebung

munichsun München
Review Submitted: September 15, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Die Villa verfügt über sehr schöne und geräumige Appartments - der weite Blick vom Balkon aus auf die Dächer des Dorfes Visnjan bis hin zum Meer bietet echte Entspannung. Klasse auch der Pool, an dem wir einige Tage gefaulenzt haben. Die gesamte Atmosphäre in der Villa ist sehr entspannt - dazu erhielten wir ein sehr freundliches "Welcome" sowie immer wieder gute Tipps oder nette Gespräche. Im Ort gibt es alles, was man braucht - wer den Rummel liebt, fährt nach Porrec oder Rovinj (hübschere Stadt von beiden). Die Villa ist für Urlaub mit oder ohne Kinder sehr geeignet - wir kommen gerne mal wieder. Gruß aus München.

Rundum schöner Urlaub

dhfc München
Review Submitted: September 30, 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
Inmitten eines kleinen netten Örtchens gelegenes schönes Landhaus mit verschiedenen Appartments.Großer schöner Pool mit Liegestühlen und Sonnenschirmen. Die Wohnungen sehr geschmackvoll und praktisch eingerichtet, sehr sauber.Insgesamt sehr gepflegte Anlage.Die ausgesprochen nette deutschsprachige Verwalterin wohnt in der Nähe und steht einem bei Bedarf mit Rat und Tat beiseite.
Verschiedene Strände in ca. 10 Km Nähe mit dem Auto gut erreichbar,Fels- und Kieselstrände. Dadurch sehr klares Wasser, ideal zum Schnorcheln.
Landschaftlich sehr reizvolle Gegend mit verschiedenen netten kleinen Städten, für Tagesausflüge bestens geeignet.

Dorf noch nicht "touristisch" erschlossen

Bipa österreich
Review Submitted: August 8, 2008 Date of Stay: July 2008
Das das Haus neu renoviert war hörte man deutlich am quietschen der Türen und des Bodens! Ansonsten sauber!
Außerdem scheint jeder in der Nachbarschaft einen Hund zu haben der am Abend das Bellen beginnt und nicht mehr aufhört damit.
Sat-TV bestand aus einem deutschsprachigen Sender!
Sehr viele Baustellen im Dorf! Der Pool durfte abends nicht mehr benutzt werden, aber mitbezahlt habe ich ihn auch!
Werde doch wieder eine Ort wählen in Meernähe!
