Location
About the surrounding area of Villa KarolinaVilla Karolina is a pretty paradise sequestered in a rural location but a short drive from Opatija, the seaside town famously referred to as the pearl of the Adriatic Sea. There’s something glitzy and fun about Opatija, and it’s a hugely popular destination on the Istrian Riviera. That blend of peace whilst also being able to explore the fun on your doorstep makes this a first-class choice for escapism and involvement. It’s rare to find both so perfectly!
The best activities to do in the area are to walk, hike, drive or cycle amongst the picturesque towns and villages, including Ika, which is quintessentially Croatian and harks back to a quieter era. The area offers many great options for travellers of all age ranges.
Whether it’s a quiet beach stroll you desire, a swim in the sea, a wander along the beach promenade (the perfect place to watch), and endless cafes, restaurants, taverns and shops where you can enjoy famed Croatian delicacies. Croatia is famed for its seafood, and there will be plentiful opportunities to try it here. There are many things to do, including swimming and snorkelling at Ika Beach, which has its gentle, warm waters. The simple sights can be the most captivating: the gentle lull of boats moored in the harbour, red-topped Croatian homes and delicate churches.

Church of St. James, a stunning neo-Romanesque structure.

The town was transformed into a sought-after spa and resort destination, and it became a fashionable resort for Europeans, known for its beautiful gardens, grand villas, and splendid promenade.

Great Time
We were a group of 15 and had a great time at Villa Karolina villa. The rooms are clean and the villa has a modern interior design. The villa is beautiful such as the view at the ocean and the landscape. Karolina was very nice and provided us with any information we needed. Would definitely recommend.
