Sebeborci Holidays from £305

We stayed 3 nights in the Lavanda Apartment. It was clean, very well maintained and comfortable accommodation in charming Marezige up in the hills surrounded by olive groves and vineyards, for those wanting some distance from the crowds in nearby Koper and Piran. Our accommodation was also very close to Hrastovlje (20 min drive), the forests for our truffle hunting tour (5 min drive or 10 min walk) and walkable to the centre of Marezige (7 min uphill walk) where the wine and olive oil fountains are located, and where you can catch good sunset photos while having your wine. Our hosts were kind and accommodating, and conduct olive oil appreciation tours onsite. You can also sample the olive oil and wines they grow. You will need a car if you stay here, and you must like animals as the surrounding neighbours are small farms. There were no downsides for us during our stay other than the one day it rained on us. We didn’t get to try the outdoor jacuzzi/hot tub which was inviting as we were out most of the days sightseeing.

A beautiful country setting and a surprisingly modern hotel contained in a traditional facade. This is a small operation so don't be surprised to find the man who checked you in and carried your bag also taking your dinner order. That isn't a criticism, just a reality in a boutique hotel with 20 something rooms. Dinner menu varies by the day and is accompanied by a decent wine list. Breakfast is included and can be the comprehensive buffet or a la carte with several custom made offerings. I would stay there again but a small warning that applies to many European hotels. No elevator. The staff will deliver your bag but you do need to climb stairs. Nice people and a welcoming ambiance. As a traveler of some 40 plus countries, I have this on my repeat list.

Very nice room and staff. He even prepared breakfast for us to take when we had to leave early for the airport! Great location as well!
