Mediterranean Sunset, Labin, Istria

Nestled in the dense Istrian peninsula, Mediterranean Sunset showcases the best of Croatia’s natural beauty and is the essence of country living. Perched in the thick countryside on the outskirts of Šišan, you’ll be in awe of the sweeping panoramas of the pine-clad coastline. The town itself is as charming as it gets, with a sprinkling of historic buildings, small restaurants, and quaint cafes. The perfect place for active explorers, with scenic bike trails and hiking spots woven between the mountainous landscape. Just a short drive away are the crystal waters of the beautiful eastern coastline of Istria, with numerous sandy beaches and rocky coves. Head to the charming hilltop town of Labin for all of your amenities, or just simply stroll through the history-rich streets. Further afield is the larger beach resort of Rabac, where a white pebble beach, water sports, and exceptional waterfront restaurants await.

The serene deck will take your breath away, flanked by aromatic trees and verdant greenery all backed by the phenomenal Istrian landscape. With such a secluded location and multiple balconies, you can soak up the rural panoramas in total tranquillity. Sunbathe on a poolside sun lounger under the sway of palm trees or relax in the shade under a parasol whilst admiring the glistening shoreline in the distance. The swimming pool gleams against the warm Croatian sunshine, perfect for tranquil morning swims. For a cosy cooking spot, head to the sleek veranda and fire up the summer kitchen and barbecue grill to cook up any fresh produce or local veggies. With a dining table poolside under the veranda and on the upper balcony, dinner is best served overlooking the phenomenal views.

Chic and contemporary, its square-cut design and gleaming white exterior overflow with elegance. Just like the outside, the interiors are spacious and decorated in a minimalist style to create a feeling of space and tranquillity. The open-plan living space layout glides you around on shiny laminate flooring, with a pair of white leather sofas to sink into to chill away from the sun.

When you’d like to venture outside, large sliding glass doors bring the outside in and bathe each room with natural sunlight. The kitchen would please any budding chef, finished with glossy black cabinetry and high-end appliances. For some added luxe, head to the wellness room to let off some steam in the Finnish sauna and indoor jacuzzi. Fancy a game of pool? Just when you think it can’t get any better, there’s a games room decked out with a pool table and darts. When it’s time to go to bed, you won’t be disappointed by the stylish bedrooms - spanning the three floors are four ensuite doubles and one ensuite single bedroom.
