ISTRA Rovinj CROATIA
According to history records of the St. Andrew’s island at the end of the 19th century, the impassioned nature-lover J. G. Huetterott turned the whole island into a gorgeous landscape garden featuring 180 plant species, the majority of which are still growing today. Since then, the vision of what this island can and should be has changed hardly at all. We are here to create a one-of-a-kind atmosphere of relax for your elegant tastes.
It is hard to describe the sense of being special, the feeling of exclusiveness, given by the moment of arrival at the hotel and the island, island designed to give you the time-out and tranquillity you deserve. Just a 10-minute voyage with a view of islets and gentle little coves, and there you are. But we’ll leave this magical moment of berthing for you to savour for yourself, on an island out of your dreams, for a dream of a holiday.
The Hotel Istra is located alongside a crystal-clear lagoon and a pebble beach that links the two islands into a whole. Steeped in aromatic Mediterranean greenery, with that all-important sea view from all the rooms, the hotel and its interiors fuse perfectly with the sea and island into a single oasis.
Sunset brings a waft of freshness in from the sea. Look for sybaritic pleasure in al fresco suppers in the unwinding setting of our old monastery-castle. Try out famed Istrian delicacies - prosciutto, truffles and asparagus. A glass of consummate Istrian wine and there are many such - reveals heady new aromas and pervades you with a pleasant warmth. Cheers!
Numerous trails and paths for walks and bicycle rides, and the absence of traffic, make the island of St. Andrew’s a perfect natural paradise for your young ones. The kids will find lots of fun in the spectacular children’s club, along with numerous activity programmes for all ages. The gently sloping pebbled beach, with its clean, shallow sea, is an ideal spot for your tiny tots’ first attempts at swimming.
A crystal clean sea and five pools are awaiting for you. The international Blue Flag is a warranty that the beach is maintained to the highest standards. Or perhaps you prefer just lounging around in the indoor or outdoor whirlpool? The water world is under your feet.
The action is raring to go: tennis courts, basketball and volleyball courts, sand volleyball, six-a-side soccer, archery, play rooms, pedalos and beach canoes, bicycles, they’re all here. For aquatic sports lovers, there are schools for sailing, diving and windsurfing, or just the pleasure of motor boating. Check out our gym too - state of the art equipment, an inspiring view of the sea, and personal trainers will raise your adrenalin to a pitch of delightment.
We want to put a pinch of calm and beauty into the old proverb of healthy mind in a healthy body. We provide moments of pleasure for you in our saunas, the baths, in the touch of genuine artists of the massage and in a unique Mediterranean garden. We are particulary proud of the original cosmetic line Esensa Mediterana, which gives you the fragrant soul of the aromatic plants of Istria.
The whole island is one great stage. We onganize business gatherings, cultural events, weddings and any other happening you set your heart on, attentively planned down to the last detail. Let the games begin.
