Perched on the edge of the Adriatic in picture-perfect Rovinj, Hotel Monte Mulini is where grown-up getaways are done properly. An exclusive member of The Leading Hotels of the World, this boutique, adults-only retreat feels polished, peaceful, and just the right kind of indulgent. The setting is something else – tucked into a quiet corner of Lone Bay, with views over the sea and the scent of pine trees drifting in from the surrounding forest park. It’s only a 15-minute walk into Rovinj’s cobbled old town (the prettiest in Istria, if you ask us), but once you check in here, the temptation to stay put is real.
Rooms are elegant and soothing – all sea views, soft linens, and those thoughtful little details that make you feel instantly looked after. And then there’s the food: refined French dining in the Wine Vault, sun-drenched Mediterranean flavours at the poolside, and Amatis – the smallest restaurant in Croatia, with just one candlelit table.
Days drift between dips in the outdoor pool, spa time in the 3,000-square-metre wellness centre, and lazy hours at Mulini Beach – the chicest spot on the bay, complete with plush loungers and a bar serving cold cocktails and grilled octopus rolls. This one’s for the adults who want sea, serenity and style – without losing that warm Croatian charm.
Hotel Monte Mulini is perfectly placed in Lone Bay, just a 15-minute stroll from Rovinj’s postcard-pretty old town. You’re tucked between the forest and the sea – close enough to dip into the buzz, but far enough to feel completely switched off. Pula Airport is the nearest, around 40–50 minutes by car, and we can easily arrange a private transfer to get you straight into holiday mode.

Designed with a soft, grown-up palette of creams, stone and warm woods, every space feels calm, curated and quietly luxurious. Whether you’re in a Premium Room or a sea-view suite, expect floor-to-ceiling windows, generous balconies, and bathrooms with walk-in showers and freestanding tubs.
Every room looks out either over the lush forest park or the glittering Adriatic – and honestly, there’s no bad angle. The vibe is minimalist, but not cold – with bespoke furnishings, plush linens, and tech that just works.
For something extra special, the suites are worth it – with added space, sitting areas for lazy morning coffees, and uninterrupted views of the bay. And because this is adults-only, it’s wonderfully quiet – no door-slamming or splashy pool scenes, just the soft hum of the sea.

Hotel Monte Mulini is in a prime spot for exploring on foot. You’re just a short, scenic 15–20-minute walk from Rovinj’s charming Old Town, with its cobbled streets, galleries and buzzing cafés. Right on your doorstep is Mulini Beach – perfect for a lazy afternoon by the sea – and just beyond that, the Golden Cape Forest Park (Zlatni Rt) offers peaceful trails for walking, cycling or a pre-dinner wander among the pines.
Set just outside the city’s ancient stone walls, Sun Gardens Dubrovnik is a dream base for families who want the best of both worlds: easy access to the buzz of Dubrovnik, and a peaceful coastal retreat to come back to. This five-star resort is spacious, stylish and effortlessly family-friendly – and not in that token “we have a kids’ menu” kind of way.
Villa Dubrovnik isn’t one to shout for attention—but it doesn’t need to. Built into the cliffs just a short stroll from the Old Town, this modernist hideaway feels worlds apart from the bustle, floating above the Adriatic with a kind of quiet confidence. White stone, clean lines, glass everywhere—it’s all very understated, very serene, and exactly what you want when you’ve come to switch off in style.
