During a summer trip in Croatia we had the opportunity to spend some days at this 5 star boutique hotel - and we couldn't be more pleased. We were blown away by the charm and sophistication - and the private vineyard tours were captivating. Our fantastic suite had a balcony overlooking the sweeping landscape — perfect for sunrise coffee or sunset wine. If you want an luxurious winecation (if that's even a word?) this is a must-visit!
