Rural, refreshing, fantastic.

It might sound like a cliché, but have you ever dreamed of staying in a villa with a swimming pool? However, when you discover some of the truly beautiful Slovenian villas that offer such facilities, you’ll find that they are far from clichéd. Each has its own character, whether it’s a renovated traditional house or a modern architectural masterpiece. Most luxurious villas are found in places benefiting from the Mediterranean climate. However, there is no shortage of such villas in other parts of Slovenia, too. If your dreams are slightly more modest, you can spend an equally comfortable rural break on one of the well-maintained homesteads where you can also take a dip in a private swimming pool.

The most beautiful villas in which to spend your summer

Discover your piece of paradise. Wake up in a luxurious villa with a priceless view of the idyllic landscape. Enjoy the abundance of the countryside – from authentic local flavours on your table to walks in nature. You will find freshness at “your” doorstep, as you can take a dip in a private swimming pool.

The allure of the Mediterranean soul

Most luxurious villas, where you can enjoy the peace and intimacy, are found in places that have a Mediterranean climate. Brda has been a popular area for the residences of aristocrats, the Karst lures with its mysteriousness, while the inland areas of Slovenian Istria are tempting due to their proximity to the sea. Check out some of the most prominent villas in this part of Slovenia.
