In the heart of the Istrian landscape, where olive groves meet the scent of the sea, stands a villa that is not just a place to live, but an experience. Design Villa Oliba is a contemporary interpretation of Mediterranean luxury, where architectural perfection is intertwined with the timeless peace of the Istrian landscape.

Sometimes we're not just looking for a break. We're looking for a place where time passes more slowly, where the scent of pine trees lingers on our skin, and where we can rediscover what silence means every evening. In the middle of the green Istria, in the silence of a picturesque town Bales, stands a villa that is not just a place to sleep, but a refuge for the soul – Design Villa Oliba.

Stone elegance with a view of eternity

Design Villa Oliba is not a villa that screams with its beauty – it whispers. Its stone walls and warm wooden details create a feeling as if it has been there forever. The interior boasts a calm elegance, where every corner invites you to rest: the light through the large windows gently caresses the space, the textures are soft, and the sounds of nature are the only ones that accompany you.

Three stories, three rooms, three worlds of privacy

Each of the three bedrooms has its own character. One greets you in the morning with a view of the garden, another offers direct access to the quiet stone courtyard, and the third invites you to read in the evening by the soft light. The bathrooms next to them are not just functional - they are little oases of relaxation, with details that you will only notice when you stop.

Outside, there's everything you need – and nothing too much.

The feeling of being embraced by nature is constant here. On a lounger by the pool, the days slowly melt into golden afternoons. On the outdoor terrace, under the pergola, dinner turns into hours of socializing. The outdoor kitchen is perfect for preparing freshly caught crabs or homemade truffles from the nearby market.

Bale – a city you never knew existed, but was always waiting for you

Bale is not a tourist postcard, it is a place that touches you. Among the cobblestone streets you will discover artist studios, quiet bars and views that were painted by old Venetian painters. And when you want more - Rovinj, Brijuni and the stunning Kamenjak are just a pleasant trip away.

Why is this a place you will want to return to?

Because it will give you what is rarely found: complete privacy, aesthetic peace and contact with nature that requires no imagination. Just presence. Just breath. Just Istria.

Design Villa Oliba is one of those villas that quickly becomes a secret favorite among connoisseurs – and that's why its dates often sell out months in advance. If you want to experience Istria at its most beautiful, most intimate this year, don't delay too long.
