About Us – a few things about our lovely houses and team

A family business

Our main goal is to create a synergy between the people and the Istria nature as a high-quality tourism destination, comparable to other such regions throughout the Mediterranean.

Luxury at its best

Villa Palace and Villa Konoba is a beautiful property nestled away from hustle and bustle of city life. Originally based on the idea of a traditional domestic village house, and with a light footprint, houses are in harmony with its delicate ecosystem.

Traditional costumes

Ethnographic museum of Istria preserves, and actively collects textile artefacts. The main parts of the collection are Istrian traditional costumes.

Wedge pattern is characteristic for the north and east Istria women costumes which is connected to Gothic period. That way of sawing is replaced by sawing the women dresses from waistcoat and skirt. Around the waist, women were wearing pas or kanica. On the head women were wearing facol, facul (kerchief) usually rakaman, nagažan – nicely embroidered, or later made of industrial textile.

There were two different kinds of mail trousers: brneveke – white cloth (fabric caled sukno) trousers ankle length and tight, and brageše – shorter, wider trousers of brown cloth. Feet were covered with socks – bičve, holjevi, škafuoni, škafuonice, and men wore foot-cloths, kalcete, nazuvke. They wore strapped softsoled footwear, and latter shoes, postole.

Fairs in Istria

Fairs are the life-blood of every small town and in Istria they have kept to their traditions – every town has its own fair and a specific day on which it is held.

Beside its main role of bring together vendors and buyers, every fair has its own identity and uniquely represents the spirit of tradition, here you can find almost everything – buying, selling, bargaining, socialising… in an atmosphere redolent of history.
