Two bedrooms, a private pool — in the green heart of Istria.
Check availability →The Oasis
Set among the oaks of Baderna, Villa Ventis is a modern retreat built for stillness. Glass walls open the living space to the pool and the shade of the terrace; inside, there's room for six to gather, cook, watch and rest. The coast, the hilltowns and the vineyards are all a short drift away — but the villa is the kind of place you won't be in a hurry to leave.

The one everyone talks about
When the light drops, the projector comes on. Blankets, the last of the wine, and a film in the open air — the part of the stay everyone ends up talking about.
Sun from morning to evening
Long enough to swim, warm enough to linger. Loungers, sun all day, and absolute privacy at your own pace by the private pool.
Meals that run late
A full barbecue with everything to run it, a shaded lounge, and a table built for meals that run late into the night.
Green in every direction
Wake to birdsong and the smell of the woods. No neighbours in sight — just the oaks of Baderna, morning coffee on the terrace, and total privacy on every side.
Rest
Two bedrooms, each with a double bed, a smart TV with Netflix, and soft forest-green calm. A sofa bed in the open living area brings the count to six. One bathroom, kept clean and simple. Air conditioning throughout, and the kind of quiet that only comes from being surrounded by trees.

The Name
For centuries, the winds (lat. Vento) of Istria have whispered secrets between the ancient stone villages. They speak of a central point, a stone’s thrown from anywhere, where all the currents converge. This point is Baderna - the heart of stone and the cradle of Villa Ventis.
Here, the winds are not obstacles, but guides, a silent navigator’s web. A soft Maestral from the west catches you and gently lifts you to the Venetian towers of Poreč. A brisk Bura from the east carries you swiftly across the rolling hills to the silent, truffle-rich hilltowns of Motovun and Grožnjan, sweeping over the famed terraced vineyards that surround them. A warm wind from the south leads you to the ancient stones of Pula’s amphitheater. Reaching any corner of Istria from this hub is not a journey, but a smooth drift on a current of air. And the wind that carries you out always, in the cool of the evening, brings you safely home to the tranquil oasis of Villa Ventis.
