Relax assoluto
Molto rilassante. Casa molto confortevole e pulita. Ampi spazi con privacy esterna e interna. Piscina panoramica e pulita (senza cloro). Cucina full optional, ampia e fruibile. Valido barbecue che fa il paio con l’ampio patio nel quale cenare . Ampio terrazzo al piano superiore per guardare le stelle cadenti. Esperienza da ripetere

ein sehr schönes Haus mit viel Ruhe.
Das Haus liegt sehr schön in einer ruhigen Landschaft. Wir haben uns sehr gut erholt. Nachteilig war, dass alle Geschäfte nur mit dem Auto erreichbar sind. Aber das wussten wir ja schon aus der Beschreibung. Der Pool hat für viel Spass und Abkühlung gesorgt. Die Argentur war bei allen kleinen Problemen ansprechbar. Ein und Auschecken verlief reibungslos.

Sehr schöne Lage
Wir waren 2 Wochen dort. DasHaus und die Umgebung ist sehr schön. Was die Sauberkeit angeht , könnte um einiges besser sein. Überall waren Spinnweben und Staub. Ein großes und kleines Handtuch standen nur jeweils eine für pro Person zur Verfügung und gewechselt wurde 1×wöchentlich .Das war natürlich zu wenig, dafür das im Inserat Handtücher zur Verfügung stand. Zudem ist Waschmaschine am 2.Tag kaputt gegangen und hat 1 Woche gedauert um es zu reparieren. War sehr unangenehm, da sich Schmutzwäsche gestapelt zudem bei dem knappen Handtücher. Im Haus waren ständig überall in jedem Zimmer Krabbeltiere (Hundert-oder Tausendfüßler, Silberfische , Spinnen ,Wespen, Fliegen ,Moskitos, etc.)konnten nichts auflassen , weil keine Fliegengitter vorhanden sind. Swimmingpool war schön und sauber und wurde regelmäßig gereinigt. Die Dame von der Agentur war sehr nett und hilfsbereit und war sehr bemüht . Ich würde es schon weiter empfehlen, wenn aber erstmal der Kammerjäger da war um es von Ungeziefer zu befreien und Fliegengitter dran wären. Bei den Handtücher sollte der Vermieter vielleicht Ersatzhandtücher zur Verfügung stellen oder es sollte genau bei Inserat beschrieben werden, damit man selbst welche mitbringt.

Wonderful house in a stunning location
Situated up the road to a small hilltop town (Vrh), Villa Monte is surrounded by small vineyards and rolling hills in a private, beautiful and peaceful rural setting. We really enjoyed relaxing in one of the many outdoor areas in the sun or the shade, and always found great views over the green and varied surroundings (don´t miss the great sunsets over the medieval town of Motovun!). The house is built in Istrian stone but contrary to many older stonehouses it is very bright and roomy inside with high ceiling and lots of big windows and glassed doors. The interior was spotless and very comfortable. The open plan livingroom was great for socialising and the kitchen perfectly equipped. All the bedrooms were great but the two bedrooms with direct access to the terrace/ pool were more than we ever hoped for. Waking up and taking a morning swim in our own pool just a few steps from the bedroom with the sun shining, birds singing and great views for miles was simply incredible! There is sun from dawn to dusk but also great outdoor areas that are shaded. We made day trips all over Istria and nothing was more than an hours´ drive. Beautiful and historic Motovun and Groznan were only 15-20 minutes away. Novigrad was a pleasant surprise, almost a miniRovinj but with a lot fewer tourists 25 minutes away by the sea. Our favorite restaurant was the family run Konoba 2 km up the hill in Vrh with beef to die for! We found Villa Monte to be a genuine five star accommodation and did not want to leave! Finally a big thanks to Barbara and Andrej who made sure our stay was such a complete success! We will definitely be back next year. If you are looking for a truly wonderful place for you and your family/ friends away from the busy holiday crowds Villa Monte is it!
