My family stayed at the Villa for a week. The house was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. The location was perfect - a quiet village away from the crowds. We loved the pool and just kicking back in the evenings. Ingrid was very helpful and nothing was too much trouble for her- her advice and folder on what to see and do was excellent. We visited Novigrad and Rovinj, and Aquacolours water park. The local beach was lovely with as little or as much to do as you wanted. Helpful hint is to walk further down from the main Laterna site where it is much quieter. A great location for a family holiday. A car is necessary. ##### Annabelle F.

Das Haus ist wie beschrieben, sehr gemütlich und liebevoll eingerichtet. Es fehlte an nichts. Wir haben sehr schöne Stunden im Pool und im Haus verbracht. Wir können dieses Haus nur empfehlen. ##### Tino H. This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kathrin B. 13 Oct 2016 #### Sehr zu empfehlen! Wir (2 Erwachsene, 4 Kinder) haben eine tolle Ferienwoche in Vabriga verbracht. Haus und Garten sehen genau so aus wie auf den Fotos: sehr geschmackvoll eingerichtet, sauber und gepflegt, ruhig gelegen am Rande des Dorfes. Das Grundstück ist nicht einsehbar, so dass die Privatsphäre im Pool und auf der Terrasse gewährleistet ist. Die Vermieterin hat uns bei allen Fragen sehr unterstützt und war immer ansprechbar. Wir haben ihre Tipps gerne ausprobiert und so schöne Dörfer und Restaurants kennengelernt. Alles in allem: Sehr zu empfehlen! ##### Kathrin B.

It was clean and well maintained and felt like a home. The bedrooms upstairs are particularly nice and the outside balcony is lovely for an evening drink (watch out for the mosquitos though!) The pool area is also lovely and not overlooked. Ingrid could not have been more helpful, she responded to my emails quickly both before we arrived and during our stay and when we had a minor problem with the hot water she arranged for this to be fixed very quickly. The village, Vabriga, is quiet and so you do need a car to get around. However, the villa is well situated for access to many places to go and see. We ate at Kiwi, a restaurant in the village within walking distance of the villa, a couple of times and thought it was nice. I would definitely recommend the villa to anyone looking for a quiet location in the Porec area. ##### Keren E.

Alles war so wie beschrieben und die Vermieterin war sehr bemüht und immer ansprechbar. Der Pool wurde viel genutzt, obwohl er noch relativ kühl war. Das Haus ist außerdem ein guter Ausgangspunkt zur Erkundung der schönen Gegend. ##### Philipp B.

We were wellcomed by Daniel and it was a real warm wellcome after 8 hours drive. Following morning was beautiful and sunny and we realy enjoyd lovely garden and outdoor. House is very nice and furnished with great taste. It feels like home with orchestra of birds singing throghout the day as the house is located on the edge of the small forest. We will defonitly come again. ##### Milivoj R.

The pool right by the Patio was so handy. Beside that it was nice and clean. The village provides everything you need, little Supermarket, restaurants etc Porec and Novigrad are both worth a visit an just a short drive from the Villa by the sea with lots of lovely restaurants and bars. Ingrid the owner cared a lot to make us feel welcome, was always available to give tips and suggestions whatever we asked. The Villa set a new benchmark for our next Holiday :-) Thank you!!! ##### Cornelia S.

Mein Mann und unsere zwei Kinder 9 Jahre und 4 Jahre so wie mein Bruder mit seine Frau und 17Jährigem Sohn hatten eine sehr schöne Urlaubswoche in der wir nichts vermisst haben. Besonders haben wir den sauberen Pool und Grillen auf der Terrasse genossen. Wir können es nur weiter empfehlen auch für zwei Familien da das Haus so groß ist und Rückzug Möglichkeiten bittet. Danke nochmals für alles. Lg Maria ##### Maria K. This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent 28 May 2010 #### Sehr angenehmer Aufenthalt im Mai. Wir haben die Pfingstferien mit 2 Kindern in Vabriga verbracht und hatten sehr entspannte Tage. Das Haus entspricht völlig der Beschreibung und den Fotos. Die Räume sind angenehm eingerichtet und sehr sauber und die Küche ist perfekt ausgestattet. Schlafen konnten wir problemlos, aufgrund der angenehmen Betten und der sehr ruhigen Umgebung. In der Nacht war es drausen noch etwas kühl und die Zentralheizung wärmte das Haus schnell auf. Unsere Kinder haben sich die meiste Zeit im Schwimmbecken ausgetobt. Die Vermieter hatten sogar verschiedenste Luftmatratzen und (Wasser)-Spielsachen, welche wir verwenden konnten. Wir kommen nächstes Jahr sicher wieder, da uns die Umgebung von Vabriga mit dem nahen Porec sehr gut gefallen haben. ---
