It is designed to provide a quiet and relaxed stay. The property has an additional guest house, if needed. The property can accommodate up to 12 guests on a private site of over 30,000 m² organic olive grow. The friendly service and high standards will suit those seeking superior quality in an elegant, natural and tranquil setting. Except for the functionality, we have also tried to make Glavini aesthetically pleasing, while we haven’t changed the au­thentic look and feel of the place. In cooperation with nature and its best fruits, the property fits perfectly within the landscape far from the noise, traffic and crowd. Glavini Estate is an impec­cable choice for the people desirous of a sincere coexistence with nature and tranquillity. We can organise and provide local organic food supply & cooking at request. There is also a possibility of detox, massage and spa treatments. Location: It is the perfect location for exploring the delights of Istria, the rest of Croatia, Slovenia (20 km) and Italy (30 km) as well as many tourist spots in the surrounding area. The property is in sight of the town of Draguc, close to Buzet (12 km), Motovun (12 km) and just 45 km from the sea in any direction (north Trieste, west Porec, Novigrad or south Opatija, Rabac, Rijeka). It sits nestled in a landscape of gentle, rolling hills, rich in Mediterranean flora. Things to do: Things to do can be unique, refreshing, imaginative and surprising. Glavini Estate and Istria can offer all this and more whether you are looking for action, inspiration, relaxation, detox, recharge or want to discover Istrian treasures. In autumn we have truffles from nearby woods and it is possible to organise unique ‘truffle hunting’ experiences. In that period we also harvest grapes and olives with organic production of vine and cold-pressed extra virgin olive oil. In winter from January to March we have unique traditional Istrian Carnival events, with a rich entertainment program. The spring is reserved for picking the asparagus and other healthy herbal plants. The summer brings plenty of choices from visiting the nearby sea resorts south, east and west of us or checking out some of the many regional art and cultural festivals. Estate: Kids are welcome. Guests can enjoy our large 8x4 m pool, relax in the sauna or fitness room and enjoy a sweeping view of landscape. There is also a kid’s playground, table tennis, badminton and bocce (closely related to the game of boules). If you are into cycling, we are in the right spot to access and visit Istria. At the property, we have around 300 organically grown olive trees as well as 20 cherries, a dozen figs and many apples, peach, pear and plum trees, all organically produced along with our vegetables which are all at your disposal during your stay, depending on the season. We believe that we are an integral part of the earth and nature and we use renewable energy as much as we can. The home is fitted with solar collectors with an underfloor heating system, run using renewable energy. Water is collected from the roof, so as not to waste precious resources. We are also connected to a natural spring and drinkable fresh water. ## Property amenities ### Pool/Spa - Communal pool - Heated pool - Hot tub - Massage - Outdoor pool - Private pool - Sauna ### Internet - Available in the villa: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Limo/town car service - Car available - Car required - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Hob - Kitchen island - Kitchenette - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Chef service - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 7 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided - Sofa bed ### Bathroom - 7 private bathrooms - Hair dryer - Outdoor shower - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Fireplace - Living room - Wood stove ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Games - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels - Stereo ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Barbecue grill - Fenced yard - Firepit - Garden - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair - Printer ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Up to 25 kg per pet ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - In-room accessibility - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board - Limited housekeeping - Meal delivery service - Phone - Safe ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In a village - Near the sea ### Things to do - Arcade/game room - Billiards/pool table - Gym - Heated pool - Optional golf privileges - Table tennis - Birdwatching nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Hunting nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Swimming nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - Garden - Solar energy - Unit size: 5,382 square feet ## Similar properties ![Interior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/117000000/116830000/116822300/116822229/c51cb5d0.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Villa Galant with Pool and Sauna Kanfanar - Pool - Kitchen - Washing machine - Free Wi-Fi [](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-04-11&endDate=2026-04-12&selected=116822229&PinnedHotelID=116822229&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach nearby, sun-loungers](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/35000000/34200000/34199000/34198992/bdebb084.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Vacation paradise Villa Ružmarin: private pool, air conditioning and pure nature!

The rooms were cleaned and cozy. Kitchen met our expectations. The owner is very helpful and nice, he gave us some information about neighborhood. We were also able to buy locally produced wine and olive oil from the very friendly farmers in the village. I recommend this villla for people who need peace and quiet surrounded by nature. ##### Monika G.

The villa is absolutely gorgeous and was just perfect for our needs. It is located off the beaten track and set in a beautiful, lush valley., with stunning views and great walks for all capabilities. During our stay we were able to cater for ourselves in the well-equipped kitchen, plus we also arranged a dinner to be made for us by Nebojsa, the owner, on our arrival on the first evening, which was delicious and very welcomed after our long travels to get there. Nebojsa is absolutely lovely, as is his mum, who came to the villa to provide massages to our party. Nothing was too much trouble during our stay. We arranged with Nebojsa to supply basic foods for us in the villa almost each day, including fresh eggs and bread. We were also able to buy locally produced wine and olive oil from the very friendly farmers in the village and we also enjoyed fantastic pizzas from the small town nearby which you will need a car to get to. Nebojsa and his brother have created a truly beautiful space in a magical location and I can highly recommend staying at Villa Glavini. ##### Gillian D. Archival ### 10/10 Excellent #### Andy P. 29 Aug 2017 #### A tranquil property in wonderful surroundings. We loved it! We had a wonderful 2 week stay at Glavini - 12 of us.

Set away from traffic noise and views this property is perfect to relax and wind out from hectic city life. We did tracking to Draguc 60min, this is spot to visit also Motown. Hum all within reach. They also offer great massages. Try some local vine and food. Above all truffles are not to be missed. ##### Ivan M. Archival ### 10/10 Excellent #### Katja S. 20 Dec 2016 #### Relax, natura e riposo assicurato!!! Prima di arrivare a Glavini si entra gia' in una dimensione particolare, c'e' un silenzio unico, riposante. La casa e' molto accogliente, ben arredata e pulita. I padroni di casa sono molto gentili e hanno sempre accontentato le nostre richieste. C'e' un parco giochi molto carino fatto con materiali di riciclo, dove i bambini si divertono molto. Ci sono molti percorsi pedonali interessanti, tra boschi e villaggi semi abbandonati. C'e' la piscina che non abbiamo utilizzato perche' era un po' fresco, ma immagino sia un vantaggio in estate. Per chi ama la natua, il silenzio e una vita scandita dal ritmo del sole lo consiglio vivamente. ##### Katja S. Archival ### 10/10 Excellent #### Vesna G. 24 Jul 2016 #### Very relaxing and joyful experience We had our family holiday at Glavini Eco Village and it was great trill for all of us (11)... Try out some organic food, great vine and olive oil... We tried some hiking to Draguc, about 70min walk with kids, there are also some other trails. Great place for walking, cycling and visiting local attractions... Not to be missed! Thank you Nebojsa and Bojan our great hosts, we will see you again next year! ##### Vesna G.

Archival ### 10/10 Excellent 18 Aug 2013 #### Sehr schöne Villa in grandioser Landschaft!! Im Juli 2013 verbrachten wir mit drei Familien ( 6 Erwachsene, 6 Kinder u. 1 Hund) einen sehr schönen Urlaub in der Villa Glavini. Das Haus liegt in traumhaft ruhiger Lage im Zentrum von Istrien mitten zwischen Olivenbäumen und Weinreben. Hier kann man sich sehr gut erholen, abseits von Stress und Massentourismus seine Ruhe finden. Dennoch ist durch die zentrale Lage jeder Punkt in Istrien in weniger als einer Stunde mit dem Auto zu erreichen. Die Villa ist geschmackvoll und stilsicher eingerichtet. Über den großen Poolbereich, die Schaukel und die Tischtennisplatte haben sich nicht nur die Kinder gefreut. Rovinj ist eine sehr schöne Stadt in der Nähe. Die Kinder waren vom Glavani Hochseilgarten und der Kartbahn in Porec sehr begeistert. Der kulinarische Höhepunkt war der Besuch des Restaurants am Limfjord. Die Vermieter Nebojsa und Bojan waren sehr gastfreundlich und standen duch ein bereitgestelltes Telefon jederzeit mit Rat und Tat zur Seite ( Arztbesuch, schöne Strände, Restaurants). Wir würden jederzeit wieder zu Euch kommen, vielen Dank an Euch und Eure Familien!!! Archival ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stevan O. 26 Feb 2013 #### Fantastic villa in a quaint picturesque location The villa in Buzet was absolutelly spot on for what we needed. Romantic old stone building, comfortable accommodation, swimming pool, traditional outdoor fireplace suitable for evening gatherings were just some of the highlights this property had to offer. Also, the abundance of local wine producers was an added benefit so we could sample the tasty Malvazija amongst other types as a perfect accompaniment to delicious dishes to be found all over Istria. The owners were extremely helpful and made us feel at home away from home. Defintely would recommned this property to anyone wishing to spend a relaxing week in Istria looking for cultural and culinary explorations alike. ##### Stevan O. Archival ### 10/10 Excellent #### K M. 22 Sept 2012 #### Perfekt hus og sted Vi var 3 familier der havde set frem til en dejlig ferie Kroatien. Vores forventninger blev indfriet 100 % Det skønne hus var dejligt indrettet med store soveværelser og badeværelser til alle. Alt var velfungerende og godt indrettet. Rent og pænt alle steder. Udenfor var der en fantastisk udsigt ud over dalen og olivenlunden. Overdækket terasse og god stor pool, samt grill og legeplads. Området var spændene og der var gode spisesteder samt gode lokale vingårde. Alle vi talte med var super venlige og hjælpsomme. Venlig og hjælpsom ejer der ville gøre alt for, at vi fik en rigtig god ferie og positive oplevelser med hjem. Hyggelig landby, et dejligt sted og et land som vi håber at komme tilbage til. K.

All cleaning products were provided. The owner met us personally and was very helpful and friendly. The villa was very well equiped, and the pool was brilliant. Table tennis, badmington, balls & even water-guns were all avaiable for us to use! The owners fresh produce was lovely - figs, onions, tomatoes, herbs, plums and bottles of wine were all there for us to help ourselves to at very little cost! The views from the villa are magnificant and the local villages are lovely to visit. The only down side is that it is rather off the beaten track, but if you plan your days out and your trips to the supermarket in advance, than this will cause no problems at all. Overall, an excellent hoilday and one to be recommended. Thank you!! ##### Annette B.

The villa was beautiful, very clean and well equipped. The views were amazing! The villa owners were very helpful and accommodating, making us very welcome on arrival with a light lunch and wine and cordial provided for us after our journey - so thoughtful. I would recommend this villa for a relaxing family break. ##### Corinne C.

The villa is recently modernised and has all modern conveniences whilst retaining its rustic charm. Everyone loved the weather, pool and barbeque lifestyle. The owner Nebojsa is very friendly, helpful and speaks perfect English. We spent most of our time at the property and, because it is not too close to any other properties, the kids (and adults) could let themselves go without fear of upsetting anyone! For a peaceful break or a family/friends get together, this is an ideal property and location. I personally recommend it to you. ##### WoSeVRltkiArQ+eCOaqMYBWj0w4uFrMQGzM5aARnDme2/qjjfShuYd1xaKSOkgH9 W. Archival ### 10/10 Excellent #### roger a. 26 Oct 2011 #### Fantastic place to stay! Highly recommended! Stayed here this September, and the weather was still 30+ degrees. The place is just superb for a bunch of friends getting together for a week, or a larger family too. The owner is really friendly, speaks great English and has loads of great recommendations of where to visit locally. They can recommend places to go if you'd like to try some excellent local food. People are so friendly here and even invited us to their personal wine cellars to try their latest vintages. They produce Olive Oil here too and the landscape is like Tuscany, but without the crowds It's about an hours drive South of Trieste or North of Pula airport. The villa itself is lovely and rustic, with beautiful panoramic views. Totally spotless, really quiet and very relaxing.... ##### roger a.

Many thanks for the hospitality, good recommendations for restaurants and things to do see in the area. This is a great estate in a great and unique location. If you looking for a peaceful and tranquil holiday to recharge your batteries, this is the one. ##### Johan G. ---
