Villa Rocco - Where Real Silence Meets the Istrian Coast by 22Estates
Not every holiday location gives you a choice between total silence and vibrant coastal life — this one does. Set in the green hills between Kršan and Vozilići, the villa is surrounded by open countryside, forests and traditional Istrian villages, far away from traffic, resorts and crowded tourist zones. Instead of hotel blocks and busy streets, you wake up to birds, fresh air and wide, uninterrupted views across nature.
This part of eastern Istria is still one of the region’s best-kept secrets. It offers the kind of real tranquillity many seaside locations advertise but rarely deliver. Within just a few minutes, you can connect with authentic local life: fresh bread, groceries and daily essentials in Vozilići (around 6 minutes), and larger supermarkets and services in Štrmac (around 12 minutes). Nearby restaurants such as Tri Murve in Vozilići, Stare Staze in Kršan and Ferali in Štrmac focus on traditional Istrian cuisine, local wines and relaxed, slow dining rather than tourist menus.
The area invites you to explore at your own pace, whether by scenic drives, cycling through quiet back roads, hiking in the surrounding hills or discovering small stone villages that still follow a rural rhythm.
When you feel like trading green landscapes for blue horizons, the coast is surprisingly close. In a short drive, you can reach the lively beaches and promenades of Rabac and Copacabana, with crystal-clear water, cafés and water sports, or head in the opposite direction to the dramatic cliffs and more natural, less crowded beaches of Brseč.
This location gives you what most seaside properties cannot: a peaceful private retreat with real space and silence, combined with full access to the best beaches, food and experiences eastern Istria has to offer.
