Region
Rovinj, formerly known as Rovigno, is a captivating coastal town located on the western coast of the Istrian Peninsula in Croatia. This idyllic town, with its well-preserved old town, offers visitors a delightful journey through time and a plethora of fascinating attractions that are sure to leave lasting memories.
The grand, hilltop church of Saint Euphemia Church dominates the skyline of Rovinj, making it a focal point of the town and a must-visit destination. As you ascend the 60-meter bell tower, the spectacular panoramic views of Rovinj and its surrounding islands are simply unparalleled.
One of the most iconic features of Rovinj's Old Town is its artistic and cultural scene. The town has long been a haven for artists, and its vibrant atmosphere is palpable as you stroll through the streets. Art galleries and studios are scattered throughout the town, showcasing a wide range of works, from contemporary to traditional.
The Rovinj Summer Festival is a calendar highlight, featuring a variety of live music performances, dance shows, and theatrical productions. These events are a testament to Rovinj's dedication to preserving its cultural heritage while embracing contemporary artistic expressions.
Rovinj's charm extends to its lively markets. The Farmers' Market in the heart of the Old Town is an excellent place to sample fresh seafood and local produce, indulge in authentic Istrian flavours, and mingle with the locals. The market is a treasure trove of organic products, olive oils, truffles, and wines, offering a true taste of the Istrian culinary heritage.
For those who seek a more adventurous experience, Rovinj provides an array of recreational opportunities, including hiking and cycling trails that crisscross the surrounding countryside. The Punta Corrente Forest Park, also known as Golden Cape, is an ideal spot for outdoor enthusiasts. Its pristine beaches, lush Mediterranean vegetation, and well-maintained trails make it the perfect place to enjoy a day of hiking, cycling, or simply relaxing in the shade of pine trees.
Sailing enthusiasts will find Rovinj's sheltered harbour to be a welcoming hub for exploring the Adriatic's beauty. The surrounding islands are an aquatic paradise, offering secluded coves, crystal clear waters, and excellent snorkelling opportunities. Rovinj's coastline is dotted with numerous tree-lined beaches, such as Lone Bay and Kurent Bay, which all cater to both sun-seekers and water sports aficionados. Mulini Beach is an excellent choice for families with young children, due to the clear, shallow waters, shady spots, and convenient nearby parking.
The town's eateries, from family-run taverns to upscale fine-dining restaurants, take full advantage of the region's rich gastronomic heritage. Istria's renowned truffle dishes and fresh seafood are just a taster of the culinary treasures waiting to be discovered. The local wines, particularly the Malvasia and Teran varieties, perfectly complement the rich flavours of the Istrian cuisine. As a hub for fishing, the town boasts some of the freshest seafood in the region.
Just 45 minutes away from Rovinj is the coastal city of Pula, renowned for its Roman heritage. A highlight is the well-preserved Pula Arena, a colossal 1st-century amphitheater. Pula’s Old Town also boasts ancient landmarks such as the Temple of Augustus, and with beautiful beaches and vibrant markets it’s more than worthy of a day trip.
Rovinj's vibrant cultural scene and stunning natural surroundings make it a perfect destination for both relaxation and exploration. The town's rich history, diverse culinary scene, and captivating events offer visitors a truly authentic Croatian experience.
Kids
Best Suited For: All AgesIf it is quality time spent together as a family you’re after then villa Euphemia is perfect for you. Being in a peaceful spot, you won’t be overlooked while creating those important family memories. Children will love the private pool to make a splash in. Parents with smaller children should be cautious, however, as there are no barriers between the property and the pool so keep an eye on if their little feet take them too close to the pool unsupervised. There is a well kept garden for the younger ones to play on, making a soft alternative to the solid patio floor.
The ground-floor living area is designed to bring everyone together with an open plan family room. Snuggle up together on the spacious couch or enjoy alfresco dinners on the patio; watching the sun set while exchanging exciting stories of the days events. A cot and highchair are also available upon request for the newest members of the family.
The Adriatic Sea is a playground for their adventurous minds. Explore it with boat rides and kayaking tours, see what’s under the surface, and go snorkelling! There’s an abundance of water sports for the older ones, including paragliding while you hop around the coastline. Please note some water sports have age restrictions so please check before booking.
