Description
A place to truly get away from it all, Villa Kiara is the perfect villa for that much-needed R&R time. The sprawling Istrian countryside is on your doorstep, with lush greenery, pine-clad woodlands, and olive groves at every turn. Nestled in the medieval hilltop town of Motovun in the verdant Mirna River valley, you can experience an authentic taste of Croatia and still be close to the action. This quaint settlement is lost in time, an atmospheric cluster of charming buildings housing art galleries, restaurants, and shops. Porec is just on your doorstep and is a historic town full of Roman influence and an abundance of authentic restaurants.
This sublime stone-built villa is full of classic character, displaying traditional Istrian architecture that beautifully reflects the town carved with local stone brick and pastel-hued window shutters. Inside keeps the tradition alive, with wooden beamed ceilings, stone facades, and whitewashed stucco walls. The décor is contemporary but still hangs on to the old-fashioned style, with wooden furnishings and a tartan patterned sofa that create a warm and homely setting. The kitchen is a chef’s dream, finished with a modern touch with sleek, pine cabinets paired with high-end appliances. The first floor has two bedrooms with plush double beds, with a grand master bedroom on the second floor.
The main terrace is an absolute dream, with a sparkling outdoor pool and plenty of luxurious loungers to unwind and take in the gorgeous panoramas. Dinner at Villa Kiara is best cooked outdoors, with a brick barbecue and outdoor dining bench perfect for whipping up a feast in the cool hillside breeze. The double swing chair is perfectly positioned overlooking the rural landscape, where you can connect with the glorious nature of the Istrian countryside.
