About this property

Luxury Villa Stara Skola: Historic School, XXL Pool & Space for 14-20 Guests

Welcome to Villa Stara Škola – Where historic charm meets modern luxury.

Once the village school of Bajkini, today an exclusive design residence: Villa Stara Škola was extensively renovated in 2023 to the highest standards. Where generations of local children once learned their ABCs, you will now find a luxurious retreat featuring a 52m² XXL pool, blending the building's historic soul with modern high-end comfort. Nestled in the idyllic landscape of the Vižinada wine region, this estate offers absolute privacy for large groups, families, or retreats.

Space for 14 to 20 Guests: Comfort meets Flexibility
Villa Stara Škola is designed to provide large groups with a shared home without compromising on privacy. While 14 guests enjoy a luxurious standard, the clever room concept offers flexible sleeping arrangements for up to 20 guests:

5 Luxury Suites: Each air-conditioned suite on the ground and first floor features an en-suite bathroom and Smart TV.

Charming Mezzanines: Two of the suites feature open galleries with additional double beds – a true highlight for children and teenagers.

Entertainment Lounge (Basement): A versatile area with two further double beds and two sofas that can be used as single beds. Ideal as a dedicated space for the younger generation.

Outdoor Living on 150m²: Your Private Oasis

XXL Pool: The 52m² saltwater pool (heatable on request) is the heart of the garden and significantly larger than average.

Panoramic Terrace: 150m² of natural stone offers a shaded lounge for relaxing and ample space for sunbathing.

Summer Kitchen: The fully equipped outdoor kitchen with a built-in stone BBQ is the perfect place for long evenings enjoying Istrian delicacies and local wines.

Wellness & Entertainment

Spa Area: Enjoy the Finnish sauna with a separate relaxation room and shower in the basement.

Gaming & Fun: A dedicated gaming area ensures entertainment for all ages.

Total Comfort: The entire house is fully air-conditioned and offers high-speed Wi-Fi.

Location & Gastronomy
The villa is situated in a quiet village-edge location in Bajkini. You are at the epicentre of Istrian gourmet culture: renowned winemakers and world-class truffle restaurants are just minutes away. The picturesque coastal towns of Novigrad and Poreč, with their beaches, are only a 15-20 minute drive.

Important Note on Layout:
The basement is designed as an open-plan entertainment and sleeping lounge. It has its own shower in the wellness area. For toilet facilities, guests can use the bathrooms in the comfortable suites on the upper floors.

Experience an incomparable holiday in a building with character. We look forward to welcoming you!

Schönes Haus für eine größere Gruppe

Stylisches Haus, praktisch und perfekt angelegt.Bestens mit allem ausgestattet.Guter Ausgangspunkt für eine Radler-Gruppe.Tiere (Hühner, Hunde, Esel) in der direkten Nachbarschaft und angrenzendes Winterquartier für Yachten sind eine akustische und optische Einschränkung, die uns aber nicht gestört haben, weil wir da nicht so sensibel sind.

Unvergesslicher wunderschöner Urlaub in einer Traumvilla

Wir hatten das Vergnügen, fünf wundervolle Tage in der Villa Stara Skola zu verbringen. Mit einer Gruppe von zehn Personen erlebten wir einen luxuriösen Aufenthalt in dieser exquisit renovierten Villa, die keine Wünsche offen lässt. Die Villa besticht durch ihre hochwertige Renovierung und die großzügige Platzgestaltung. Jedes Zimmer ist geschmackvoll eingerichtet und bietet reichlich Raum für Privatsphäre und Entspannung. Besonders beeindruckend war die Küche, die mit zwei Kühlschränken und zwei Gefriertruhen ausgestattet ist, was uns stets kühle Getränke und ausreichend Stauraum für Lebensmittel bot. Die Klimaanlage sorgte für eine angenehme Kühle, die an heißen Tagen sehr willkommen war. Der riesige Pool und die wunderschöne Gartenanlage luden zum Entspannen und Verweilen ein. Die Lage der Villa, eingebettet zwischen Olivenbäumen in einem Weinanbaugebiet, war einfach traumhaft. Besonders die nahegelegene Vinothek, die zu Fuß erreichbar ist, begeisterte uns mit köstlichen Weinverkostungen und regionalen Spezialitäten. Ein weiterer Pluspunkt war der Hausherr Till, der uns mit vielen wertvollen Tipps zur Umgebung versorgte und sogar ein Großraumtaxi für und die großzügige Platzgestaltung. Jedes Zimmer ist geschmackvoll eingerichtet und bietet reichlich Raum für Privatsphäre und Entspannung. Zusammenfassend können wir die Villa Stara Skola uneingeschränkt empfehlen. Sie bietet eine perfekte Kombination aus Luxus, Komfort, einer wunderschönen Umgebung.
