Vila Maia  

On Slovenia’s Istrian coast in Strunjan — a seaside spot within easy walking distance of Portorož Beach. Close to Forma Viva, Obzidna Ulica, the Basilica Paleocristiana, Nereo Rocco Stadium and the Strunjan saltworks. The nearest international airport is about 75 km away (Trieste).

A 4-star hotel with just seven air-conditioned rooms that feel compact and smart. Rooms feature kitchens with refrigerators and dishwashers, private balconies or patios, satellite TV, showers and extra touches like desks or sofa beds depending on the category. Staff speak English and Italian.

Private beach, outdoor tennis courts, a pool and a health club set the active tone. There’s a massage room, a library for downtime, plus a poolside bar and a bar/lounge for evening wind-downs. Free on-site self-parking and an airport shuttle are available (shuttle for a surcharge).

Complimentary wireless internet across the property keeps you connected. Luggage storage, a safe deposit box and tour/ticket assistance are available to simplify your stay.

An on-site restaurant serves guests, with a coffee shop/café for quick bites. Sip cocktails at the poolside bar or relax in the bar/lounge after a day by the sea.
