If you dream of a relaxing holiday surrounded by untouched nature, Stancija Vigini is the ideal choice for you. It is a spacious, authentic Istrian stone house, originally built in 1855 and lovingly restored in accordance with tradition. The combination of a rural, calming atmosphere and the ease of Istrian life will delight anyone wishing to spend their holiday immersed in nature while still enjoying the luxury of modern living. The property consists of five bedrooms accommodating up to 10 guests, who can enjoy a pool, sauna, long walks and jogging across the 2-hectare estate, a fitness centre, numerous cycling routes… or explore gourmet delicacies in nearby agritourisms, tasting premium wines and truffles.
The rooms are spread across three floors. The ground floor features a bedroom, a bathroom and a lounge with a billiard table. The first floor offers a well-equipped kitchen and a comfortable living room filled with vintage details enhancing the villa’s charm. The top floor has three more bedrooms and two bathrooms.

Stancija Vigini is located in the small village of Makovci, and with its two hectares of land covered by century-old forest and picturesque nature, it forms a peaceful hideaway near Grožnjan – the artists’ town. In summer, Grožnjan becomes an artistic haven with numerous galleries and renowned music festivals, such as Jazz is back!. Film lovers will enjoy the nearby Motovun Film Festival. For those who simply wish to breathe in nature and enjoy local delights, Istria offers wine, olive oil, cheese, prosciutto and truffles.
With 20,000 m² of estate, featuring both ancient forest and hilly walking paths, it’s hard to find a spot that won’t impress you. The stancija’s isolation in pristine nature reflects the traditional architecture of old Istrian estates, which today allows us to offer guests a sophisticated, luxurious retreat far from everyday worries—an opportunity for active relaxation for body and soul.
With your reservation, the stancija provides bicycles for exploring the historic Parenzana trail, as well as bocce and volleyball courts, an outdoor pool, children’s playground, trampoline, billiard table and table football. And if the outdoor pool is not enough, the nearest beach in Umag is only a few minutes away.
