Villa Carnizza is a boutique seaside retreat in Southern Istra offering thoughtfully restored accommodations and curated local experiences that showcase the region’s coastal beauty, culinary traditions, and hidden olive groves. With personalized hospitality, insider-guided excursions, and sustainable practices that honor Istrian heritage, Villa Carnizza invites guests to Explore Southern Istra at a relaxed, authentic pace — turning stays into memorable, place-rooted discoveries.

At Villa Carnizza we center hospitality on authenticity, stewardship, and a sense of belonging: we honor local culture and landscapes by partnering with artisans, farms, and guides to create genuine experiences; we protect the environment through low-impact practices that preserve the coast and countryside for future visitors and neighbors; and we welcome every guest with thoughtful, personalized service that celebrates curiosity and slow travel. These values guide our decisions — from conservation-minded renovations to crafting seasonal menus — ensuring every interaction reflects respect for place and a commitment to meaningful, memorable stays.
