Questions

Before you book

Why book directly instead of on Booking.com?

You automatically get 15% off our standard rates, because there is no platform commission. You talk to our family directly from your first message, and we can tailor your stay to you. Same apartments, same care.

When are you open?

We welcome guests from 1 April to 1 November. Summer prices apply from 26 June to 27 August.

Which apartment is right for us?

The one-bedroom apartment is ideal for a couple, with its own spacious courtyard. The two-bedroom apartment is on two floors, with a sea-view balcony and a roof terrace, for families or friends up to 4. Travelling with more? Book both apartments for up to 6 guests in the same house.

How do I reserve?

Choose your apartment and dates and send an inquiry. We reply with a complete, all-inclusive price. If you are happy, you pay the full amount in advance by bank transfer, and we send your booking confirmation. There is no security deposit.

What if I need to cancel?

Our cancellation terms are in the offer we send you, so you know them before you pay.

Can we stay just one or two nights?

Yes. For 1 night the price is 50% higher, for 2 or 3 nights 25% higher. From 4 nights you pay the standard rate. The calculator includes this automatically.

Can we bring our dog?

Yes, pets are welcome for €5 per pet per day. We provide pet bowls.

Is there parking?

Yes. Each apartment has its own free parking space in our courtyard. If you come with more cars, there is usually room on the street nearby.

Do I need a car?

Not for the beach: it is a five-minute walk, and restaurants are close by. For Pula, Medulin, Cape Kamenjak and the rest of Istria a car is easiest. Pula airport is 9 km away.

Are you a bigger group?

Our family also rents Villa Casa L, a private pool villa for 8+2 guests near Pula, ten minutes from here.

Sprechen Sie Deutsch? Parlate italiano?

Ja! Sì! We speak German, Italian, English and Croatian. Write to us in whichever language you prefer.
