5-star hotels in Marcana
A shortlist of 5-star stays in Marčana, southern Istria, from villas with private pools to apartments near the village. Built for couples, families and groups who want space, quiet and a base for the coast and countryside.
Staying in Marcana
Marčana sits in southern Istria, about 15 kilometres northeast of Pula. The parish church of St. Martin in Marčana and the church of St. Cecilia in Mutvoran are the notable historic sites, while the economy rests on agriculture, viticulture and olive growing alongside tourism. Cycling and hiking trails run through vineyards and olive groves towards coastal viewpoints, and the bay of Duga Uvala on the coast has beaches and clear water.
These 5-star properties are spread across the municipality rather than clustered in one spot. Addresses name Kavran, Belavici, Matelici, Butkovići, Valtursko Polje, Krnici Porat, Loborika, Rakalj, Divsici and Radeki Polje, with distances from the centre of Marčana running from 1.9 to 9 kilometres. It suits couples and families who want a private pool and a garden, groups needing many bedrooms, and business or short-break travellers with a car, since most villas stand in the villages and countryside around the central village.
