We have a wonderful two-way holiday in our lovely house. Dejligt, det var muligt at til restauranter og indkøb. It will take you 5 minutes to come to the skønne sten/klippe beach at Robinson Crusoe beach bar. Valentina var en rigtig god værtinde, som sørgede for at alt fungerede rigtig godt, og hun var super sød til at tjekke op på to vi havde det godt under holdet. Kan virkelig anbefales.

It's a lovely, cozy house right in the center of Tar, close to the sea and all other amenities. The pool is fantastic, and there are several places around the house to sit and eat. Valentina was very helpful and responded quickly to any questions or requests.

It was one of the greatest places we have ever been to. The house was clean and has everything we needed. It was easy to reach the shops and restaurants. Rovinj, Porec and Novigrad were also reachable by car. And the pool!!!! We really enjoyed it! I am sure we will return!

Very nice villa that has everything you need for your stay. Nice pool and pool area. Also positive with parking in the yard. Good communication with the host. Had some problem with the shower and they fixed it right away. The most of our stay was positive but for a picky person there are a couple of details that could improve for the villa to be top notch like a gas grill and micro wave.

We stayed at the accommodation for 9 nights and it was really nice. Our absolute advantage with a small child was the flexible check-in and check-out times. The location was great; there are several restaurants and a small ice cream parlor nearby. We also always went to the sea, which is less than 10 minutes away. The towns of Porec and Novigrad are also not far away and are definitely worth a visit. The house is beautifully and modernly furnished; we felt at home. Communication also worked without any problems. The pool is, of course, great by the house; it's a great place to relax. The car could be parked right next to the accommodation.

Very good communication with the agency and the renters of the villa. The photos on the agency's website fully correspond to the real condition. The villa is very well positioned and equipped for a week's stay. We are very satisfied with our stay and will probably return.

We stayed in the villa with our children for a week and had a really lovely holiday. The villa is a good size for 4 people. There is nothing missing. The kitchen is very well equipped. Everything you need is there. Even a washing machine, iron, clothes rack... everything is there. There is a beautiful terrace, the pool is very clean and even has pool towels. The separate barbecue area (terrace with seating area) is very nice. There was even charcoal and lighters. We can really recommend the villa. It is very centrally located and there are lots of places to eat all around. The beach was 5 minutes away by car. Also highly recommended. It should also be mentioned that booking the villa and the personal contact on site was smooth and very friendly. Thank you again for everything. We will definitely be back.

Have you always dreamed of an authentic Istrian vacation in a traditional stone house? In a quiet location in a small town, yet close to the sea? If your answers are positive, we have the right villa for you. Casa Tessa is located in the heart of Tar, just a few kilometers from the coast. This stone villa full of character and charm will provide you with the vacation you've been dreaming of. With 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, it can accommodate up to 4 people, making it perfect for a small family or group of friends.

The interior of the villa is 100 m² and is divided into 2 floors. The interior has a pleasant atmosphere and the walls are completely covered with stone, which will provide you with the necessary freshness on hot summer days. You can prepare delicious and healthy meals in the fully equipped kitchen, and if you want to cook in the fresh air, there is an outdoor grill at your disposal. The living room has a comfortable sofa, ideal for relaxing in the afternoon.

The 2 bedrooms located on the 1st floor of the house will provide you with an excellent haven for undisturbed sleep. One bedroom has a double bed and the other has 2 single beds. There is a guest toilet on the ground floor of the house and a shared bathroom with shower on the 1st floor.

If you prefer to spend time outside, you won't be disappointed. On the 250 m² terrace you will find a swimming pool with sun loungers, and there is also a covered relaxation area with armchairs. The outdoor dining table will be an ideal place to enjoy meals or late night get-togethers with a glass of wine, with a view of the bell tower of the nearby church.

In addition to being only 4 km from the coast, there are actually 3 popular campsites in the immediate vicinity of the villa. The coastal town of Novigrad, famous for its spectacular sunsets, is only a 10 minute drive away. While in Tar, be sure to taste the local olive oil, considered by many to be one of the best in the Istrian region.

Everything you need to know about reviews

How is the average score determined?

The average review scores of villas and holiday homes are shown on our website on a scale from 1 to 5. the average score is determined by adding up all the scores we receive and then dividing them by the total number of reviews received.

Which categories are rated

In the review form you can rate the villa or holiday home where you stayed in a total of 6 categories: location, facilities, comfort, cleanliness, host and value for money. Shortly after checking out from the accommodation (3 days) you will receive an e-mail with the link to the review form. You can only leave a review if you have actually stayed in the accommodation – this is how we ensure the authenticity and trustworthiness of our reviews.

Satisfaction with our service

In addition to the accommodation, we will also ask you to rate your satisfaction with our reservations centre and how likely you are to recommend our mediation services to other guests.

When will the reviews be published on the website

After you submit your review and we receive it, our quality team will check if the review is in line with our guidelines. If everything is in line with our guidelines, the review will be published on our website.

When reviews are not published

We strive to publish every review we receive, regardless of whether it is positive or negative. However, there are some cases in which we cannot publish the review. If the review contains offensive or unacceptable language (swear words, incitement to violence, political comments, advertising, personal details or first and last names of accommodation staff, references to illegal activities, etc.), it will not be published on our site i.e. the score may be published, but not the comment containing the above examples of undesirable content.

Translations of reviews

As an additional service, we offer the option of translating your review into other languages that we support on our website. We use Google Translate for this. Please note that this is a machine translation and we cannot rule out the possibility of errors in the translation. We therefore cannot accept any responsibility for the translations. In the event of complaints based on reviews, only the original language will be taken into account.
