Photos and Description of the Central Istria vacation cottage rental

Casa Mia (sleeps 6/10. 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom)is a beautiful rural property set on 3 floors with private pool. Peaceful location surrounded by vineyards and rolling fields. 15 min drive to Porec for all amenities. Couple of miles to Vizinada and supermarkets. Beaches nearby. Rural living at its most peaceful. If you want to get away from it all, this is the place for you. Casa Mia is situated on the edge of the small hamlet of Stanici. The larger town of Vizinada is a couple of miles down the road and there you'll find a couple of small supermarkets serving their fresh daily bread and other essential items. Istria's regional capital Porec is a 20km drive away and there you'll find restaurants, shops of all kinds plus a couple of large supermarkets where you'll do your weekly shop.

Istria is often referred to as the New Tuscany such is its climate, landscapes and vineyards. If you don’t relax by the pool or simply sunbath, there are plenty of day trip possibilities: Porec, the capital of Istria, Pula with its ancient Roman amphitheatre, Motovan, the marvellously atmospheric hill town, Rovinj with its quaint old streets barred to traffic and Opatija with its 19th century neoclassic opulence. Stanisi itself is a very small hamlet, probably no more than 7 habitable dwellings most of which make a living from the wine trade. There’s a lovely restaurant just at the end of the approach road and a couple of small 'supermarkets', 2 km away, in Vizinada (which incidentally, pretending to be French, formed the backdrop to scenes from the Clint Eastwood movie ‘Kelly’s Heroes’). More lively nightlife can be found a 15 minute drive away, in Porec or Novigrad, two lovely seaside towns, or in quaint Buje.
